wow .. tat's cool ... finally i found someone who shares similiar interest :mrgreen:

actually I am learning cantonese n watching these dramas really help lots :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hmm .. the 1st 7th day i saw the first few epi n found plot quite slow moving ..... A journey called Life .. havn't seen it as yet. Yes, Survivor Law II excites me becoz I saw Survivor Law I n found it quite gd! How's Part II compared to Part I? Ella & Selena + Sammul shd make this drama quite enticing .. unfortunately i'm not really a fan of Kenneth Ma :cry: If oni it was replaced by Raymond Lam ... PERFECT!

U must watch Forsenic Hero II ..... it's really exciting!!!!!

... don't you folks find that TVB drama serials these days are "tiger head snake tail"? They'll spend like 70% to 80% of the time building up to the climax, all goes well, and then boom!!! rush the ending in the last 2 episodes. It gets so predictable and it's such an anti-climatic end to things. It's like they run out of ideas on how to finish the serial and so they just throw all the endings that the audience wants into it.

I watch those on Starhub, some highly-rated / popular ones also anyhow whack ending - e.g. the Oyster family one: 40 episodes, spend 38 episodes building up the story... then 2 episodes (actually, 1 episode) unravel everything. Wahlao.

Am now watching Forensic Heros 2 (latest release by TVB) .... plot darn exciting ... here's a preview :mrgreen:

Every contact leaves a trace

Every clue serves as a silent witness against crime

Bomb disposal expert Yeung Yat Sing (Kevin Cheng Ka Wing) returns from England to visit relatives and he comes across a grenade case by accident. With his tactful and level-headed approach, Sing is highly appraised by Senior Chemist Ko Yin Pok (Bobby Au-Yeung Chun Wah) and is being invited to join the Forensic Division. In a little while, Sing becomes the division’s rising star. By work, Sing gets back in touch with his long-lost best friend Koo Chak Sam (Frankie Lam Man Lung). Sam serves as a forensic writer and he is going to get married soon.

Accidentally, Sum’s fiancée Lam Ding Ding (Linda Chung Ka Yan) is killed in an explosion and Pok’s police girlfriend Leung Siu Yau (Yoyo Mung Ka Wai) also loses the ability of holding a gun in the incident. Yau’s duties are passed to Ma Kwok Ying (Charmaine Sheh Sze Man) from the Narcotics Bureau. Both Sam and Sing find Ying extremely charming with her smart and unfathomable characteristics in case handling.

Integrating laboratory techniques, logical reasoning, and forensic knowledge, the trio strive to fight against crimes tremendously. As they get to know each other more and more, the entangled triangle of love also starts to hinder their working relationships…

30 epi .. I am @ epi 26 now .. so intrigued with the plot settings :mrgreen:

San .. eye candy rests with the 2 guys in the front row : Frankie & Kevin :P


now that Grandrake mentioned ... PurpleC,

i must say ... i don't like the ending @ epi 30.

too flip-flopped.

like that Kevin woke up from coma or not?!

ha .. sometimes it gets a tad lusterless if everything ends in a too fairytale setting ...... guess the key plot is how crimes are being solved ..... the other elements eg love is interwoven to complement the plot settings ..... :mrgreen:

Depending on review ratings .. there mayb a part III when Ivan remain comatose for a while ......

Survivor Law II not bad...rather nice....actually i quite like Kenneth Ma....the role he plays, bring humor to the serial...in fact, i find it nicer than part I cos i dun really like the cast in Part I

For 1st 7 days...agree it's rather slow at the start...i started off hoping that the Romance fairytale of Niki and Zheng Jia Ying (pai seh..duno english name) will continue in this serial.....a bit disappointing on their part...but the part on Bosco and the gal (duno the name, but know she'd acted very long and quite pretty) is very funny...

for me, i like show with humor...don't really like those sobby and draggy serials...those Korea and Taiwan dramas can never win me over...see liao want to koon....


agree with grandrake abt the endings..but then, at least got decent story build up...some mediacorp one, watch liao oso duno wat the serial all about....
