My rating: 4.8/5.0 (EXCELLENT!) for the time being – 10/20 episodes aired already

My say: Stars the young up-and-coming actors and actresses, this drama has its element of comedy, in the usual drama format, complete with love and problems, many of them. Complete it with a good ending, and it’s the perfect drama, so to say.

the old 7pm, and the new 7pm

July 23, 2006 in 2006 Dramas, Dramas, Star Awards, Star Awards 2006

The old 7pm drama on ch 8: Rhapsody in Blue 蓝色仙人掌 (Lan Se Xian Ren Zhang)
STAR AWARD WORTHY:

Best Supporting Actress
Eelyn Kok (so super guilty until she turned so super psycho. she’s got to play more of these type of roles, ‘cos she good at them!)
The new 7pm drama on ch 8: Point of No Return 西关大少 (Xi Guan Da Shao): 3.7/5.0 (Good)
It’s an old HK drama, with the same English title as a Taiwanese drama. Those type of set in the 1930s, slow dramas. Stars: Julian Cheung, Jessica Hester Hsuan…

C.I.D. 刑警 2 人组

July 23, 2006 in 2006 Dramas, Dramas, Star Awards, Star Awards 2006

 

This is one of the best cop shows i have seen.

Rating: 4.3/5.0 (Very Good)

Stars: Tay Ping Hui, Qi Yuwu, Ivy Lee, Jeanette Aw, Apple Hong, Lin Meijiao, Liu Qianyi, Zhu Houren, Shaun Chen, Nick Shen, Allan Wu, Constance Song, Belinda Lee, Yang Libing, Chen Tianwen, Jin Yinji, Yan Bingliang, Alan Tern, Pan Ling Ling, Ong Ai Leng, Brandon Wong, Zhang Yaodong

It’s fast paced, cases are inter-related, the acting is good, the plot is good, the ending is not very good, but acceptable. It’s melodramatic at some points and there are 3 small cases, each of them involving C.I.D. officers Tay Ping Hui and Qi Yuwu. It all builds up to the main case, which involves Qi Yuwu, Jeanette Aw, Lin Meijiao, Liu Qianyi and Zhu Houren. It ends with Apple Hong dying, Qi Yuwu ending up with Ivy Lee, Jeanette Aw going to jail and Tay Ping Hui promising to wait for her.

STAR AWARD WORTHY:

Best Actor nomination
Qi Yuwu (he very obviously steals the limelight from Tay Ping Hui with his very different sides and emotions)

Best Actress nomination
Ivy Lee (not a very likable role, but we aren’t supposed to like her, right?)
