TVB 2009: The Grand Entrepreneur 金錢誘罪

November 21, 2008 at 7:23 pm (TVB Drama) (, , , , )

The “rumored” grand production for 2009 finally appeared at “TVB 2009 Sales Presentation” last week.. I am very exciting about this piece. The 40 episodes will features a lot of TVB’s veterans, such as Ray Lui, Gallen Lo, Nancy Sit and many more. The most exciting news for me is of course  one of its leading man, Gallen Lo. :) This production will be his second piece after his return to TVB (after “When A Dog Love A Cat”). The costumes fitting is schedule on November 24th, 2008. I am certainly looking forward to more pictures and articles about this production.

Meanwhile, please refers to Gallen Harbour (by Mimosa) for first look pictures or Sehseh’s Blog (by Sehseh) for synopsis.

Review for Healing Hands III

November 18, 2008 at 4:19 pm (Series Reviews, TVB Drama) (, , )

*Updated 11.19.2008 : The review is now upload under “TVB Review”.

Finally finished the review…. Whe! It was hard to write! Not because that I can’t capture the storyline. It is because for every sentence I wrote,  I compared it back to its predecessors (HH1 & HH2). Now, I am a HUGE fans of HH1 since I like the medical storyline in general and of course, the casts brought much entertainment to the screen. When HH1 came to the last episode, I was hoping that TVB would produce HH2. It was just too many questions left unanswered. Alas, I got my wish (I’m sure it was also the wish of all HH1’s fans) and HH2 came part surprise and part disappointment.  But bottom line, it was still okay to watch (even after they killed of Ada Choi’s Jackie). Then I thought HH2 will be the end of “Healing Hands”. I guessed I was wrong.

I saw HH3’s sales presentation somewhere on the internet (I forgot where but I ever find it again, I’ll post the link). Anyhow, at that point I already somewhat lost interest at “Healing Hands” in general as I know the casts would be totally different. I visited several reviews pages on HH3 and there were a lot of mix results. But most of them shared common point: the rating is below 6 (on the scale of 10). I was curious enough to rent HH3 and I have to tell you after I finished it, I had to agree with the common rating.  I found myself forwarding the tapes as I went and only stopped when it was Paul or Henry or MC’s storyline.

Yet, for the sake of completeness (I already wrote one on both HH1 & HH2), I decided to go ahead with HH3’s review. It is finally done and I am going to post it sometimes tonight (left my flash drive at the office. duh!)

Please be advice that I don’t have high rating for this series so my advance apologizes if the review turns out to be too bias for some of the readers. If you think I should add more info in there, please feel free to let me know. You know where to find me  :) .

A Birthday and Disneyland visit

November 9, 2008 at 7:20 pm (At Random, Uncategorized) (, , )

Spent a wonderful birthday with friends this week. Gals, thanks for all the goodies and treats. Still have my ice-cream cake in the fridge :p

A side note: I finally met my high school friend, 2 weeks ago. Take it as early birthday gift. My friend and I  haven’t met each other since high school graduation about 8 years ago! I was excited! Spent a day in Disneyland down at Anaheim. We were having a blast! It was like we are back in carefree high school days. One thing that spoiled the mood is the fact that it is so hard to find individual “Donald Duck” items in the entire park! “Donald Duck” has been our favorite Disney character back in high school. 8 years past and we are still fighting over who has more Donald Duck in our house. Talk about childish! ^-^  :D
