It’s D-Day! It’s finally here! (I know I have been slacking with this blog, will you take this recap and forgive me, maybe?) Episode 1 Recap We open at the hospital: Neurosurgery doctors, “Yat Kin Tau” Cheung Yat Kin (Kenneth Ma) and Hong Mei Suet (Mandy Wong), are frantically searching for an elderly patient Mui … Continue reading

Triumph in the Skies II/衝上雲霄II: Initial Impression (Episode 1)
I don’t usually do impressions on merely one episode, since TVB dramas always take a few episodes to find their footing. However, I am equally dreading and excited about this drama that I am eager to share my thoughts. As you all may or may not know, this sequel to the famous 2003 aero-centric drama … Continue reading
A Tiny Peak Into The Hippocratic Crush Sequel
As the blog that is a fervent supporter of The Hippocratic Crush, how can I NOT immediately share the first teaser of the sequel as soon as I lay my eyes on it (OK, maybe I did wait for a bit because I was still hunting down the HD video)?! The original The Hippocratic Crush … Continue reading
My Two Cents on the Siu Sangs and Fa Dans of TVB
As the TVB end-of-the-year award and what-not are about to roll around, everyone and their grandmas are busy speculating who will bag the major awards of the year. These awards take into account how popular a drama is more than anything but are a form of encouragement and reassurance, nonetheless. Fervent reports of the likely … Continue reading
End of the Series Review: Three Kingdoms RPG 回到三國
After being disappointed by the first 10 episodes of Three Kingdoms RPG, I stayed on board this sucker due to my (obviously) blind affection for Kenenth Ma, Raymond Lam, and Tavia Yeung. The drama becomes a tad more enjoyable, just a tad in the second half. Wan Shun becomes a bit mature, finally, but, I … Continue reading
Three Kingdoms RPG 回到三國: Impression and Ending Spoiler
Bromance, romance, a light watch, tightly knitted story…Three Kingdoms RPG is not. The story revolves around an otaku-like character and Three-Kingdoms-computer-game-fanatic, Sze-ma Wan Shun (Kenneth Ma), who time leaps back to the Three Kingdoms period. He meets his idol Chu-kot Leung (Raymond Lam) and tries to help and befriend this historically famous figure (even though … Continue reading
Triumph in the Skies 2: Let’s all beat the writer in the head.
I have SO MUCH resentment for Triumph in the Skies 2 right now, it’s not even funny. A few weeks ago, the HKChannel weibo released some information/spoilers about Triumph in the Skies 2. I was enraged but was hopeful before anything is confirmed. So I took it with a grain of salt. However, on the 18th (yesterday), Triumph … Continue reading
Teasers for Three Kingdoms RPG 回到三國
Three Kingdoms RPG will be airing quite soon after its repeated postponements. Join me as I howl, “Finally!” If you haven’t figured out yet, this drama is all about the funnies. And I always welcome comedies. I am watching the various teasers and snickering out loud, which really tells a lot. Something about Cantonese (or … Continue reading
Fan Zi Yu’s letters to Cheung Yat Kin
I have been inconsistently watching dramas here and there (specifically, House of Harmony and Vengeance and Master of Play), but do not follow them or like them enough to have much to say. This explains (justify?) the lack of updates. So, what else is a girl to do? Go to a comfort drama, of course! I’ve … Continue reading
The Rest of The Hippocratic Crush: Episodes 21 – 25 End
Very overdue post about ending of The Hippocratic Crush. I still love this drama, I swear. It’s just that a lot has been happening and I’ve been dealing with stuff. There are just way too many, details, conflicts, events for EVERYONE at the last five episodes of The Hippocratic Crush that there is no simple … Continue reading
