This year, TVB will be utilizing a ‘One Vote Per Person’ method to select the winners for the TV King and Queen (aka Best Actor / Actress) as well as Best Series awards -- however, in order for the audiences to choose the winners, first there has to be a list of nominees to pick from.

Nominations Lists [TN: Note that this is Mingpao’s supposed ‘confirmed’ version – we will need to wait and see if this truly matches TVB’s ‘official’ lists that will be revealed on November 21st]:

Best Actor (aka TV King)
Wayne Lai -- The Confidant
Moses Chan – The Last Steep Ascent
Kevin Cheng – Gloves Come Off
Kenneth Ma – The Hippocratic Crush
Raymond Lam – Highs and Lows
Bosco Wong – Witness Insecurity
Damian Lau – Silver Spoons, Sterling Shackles
Roger Kwok – Queen of Diamonds and Hearts
Joe Ma – Tiger Cubs
Raymond Wong – Gloves Come Off

Thoughts:  Moses Chan should be nominated in When Heaven Burns instead.  Even though I only watched bits and pieces of that series, it's still better/more interesting than his performance in The Last Steep Ascent.  Even in MOP, I would approve.

Then there's Kevin Cheng, who's surprisingly not nominated in Ghetto Justice 2 instead.

Oh....surprise to see Roger Kwok on the list o.O  btw where's Michael Mui?

Incredibly happy that Raymond Wong is nominated!!  BUT why?!?!  Why not Bottled Passion?! *rage*

Best Actress (aka TV Queen)
Michelle Yim – The Confidant
Charmaine Sheh – When Heaven Burns
Myolie Wu – Ghetto Justice 2
Tavia Yeung -- Silver Spoons, Sterling Shackles
Fala Chen -- Queen of Diamonds and Hearts
Linda Chung – Witness Insecurity
Kate Tsui – Highs and Lows
Aimee Chan – The Last Steep Ascent
Liza Wang – Divas in Distress
Niki Chow – Bottled Passion

Thoughts:  Aimee Chan in The Last Steep Ascent?!  *flips the table*

I am glad that tvb did not cross Charmaine off, since her performance as Hazel was great.  The other impressive contender would be Michelle Yim (to be honest, I have not watch much of the series yet....but Michelle is always great :P  so yah bias...haha).

Surprise to not see Idy Chan in here?  Kinda I guess.

Favorite Male Character
Kevin Cheng -- Ghetto Justice 2
Moses Chan – The Last Steep Ascent
Wayne Lai -- The Confidant
Raymond Lam – Highs and Lows
Kenneth Ma – The Hippocratic Crush
Bosco Wong – Witness Insecurity
Bobby Au Yeung – House of Harmony and Vengeance
Michael Miu -- Highs and Lows
Raymond Wong -- The Confidant
Damian Lau – Silver Spoons, Sterling Shackles

Thoughts:  Once again....Raymond Wong from Bottled Passion!!?!!  *extremely emotional*  And Eric Li in Bottled Passion too?  Q.Q

And why do I not see Joel Chan's character from The Last Steep Ascent or So Kei in here?!?
Ugh! *rips the nomination list*

Favorite Female Character
Michelle Yim – The Confidant
Charmaine Sheh – When Heaven Burns
Myolie Wu – Ghetto Justice 2
Kristal Tin – King Maker
Tavia Yeung -- Silver Spoons, Sterling Shackles
Tavia Yeung -- The Hippocratic Crush
Kate Tsui – Highs and Lows
Fala Chen -- Queen of Diamonds and Hearts
Eliza Sam – Divas in Distress
Niki Chow – Bottled Passion

Thoughts:  Ji Lam (Linda Chung) is not on here.....*tears*

Unfortunately, Samantha Ko's and Helena Law's roles in The Last Steep Ascent are too small to be nominated?  They were too awesome!!!!!! Q.Q

Best Supporting Actor
Power Chan -- The Confidant
Koo Ming Wah -- Divas in Distress
Oscar Leung – L’Escargot
Elliot Ngok -- The Confidant
Vincent Wong -- Silver Spoons, Sterling Shackles
Jazz Lam -- Ghetto Justice 2
Kenny Wong -- The Last Steep Ascent
Ram Tseung -- Witness Insecurity
Him Law -- The Hippocratic Crush
Edwin Siu – Daddy Good Deeds

Thoughts:  Oscar need to be nominated for his character in Tiger Cubs.  No doubt about that.

and omg...they do not have Henry Lee, even though he've been in 5 or so series this year.  Totally an underrated supporting actor who needs more attention.

.....and where is Q Bobo's name!?  I think he deserves a nomination.

Best Supporting Actress
Mandy Wong -- L’Escargot
Rachel Kan – Master of Play
Mary Hon – Three Kingdoms RPG SSSS
Florence Kwok -- King Maker No Good Either Way
Helena Law -- The Last Steep Ascent :D
Christine Kuo -- Ghetto Justice 2
Nancy Wu -- Gloves Come Off....personally think that The Confidant would give her a better standing.
Elena Kong -- Silver Spoons, Sterling Shackles
Eliza Sam -- Divas in Distress
Aimee Chan -- The Confidant

Thoughts:  If I had to make some adjustments to the list...  I would add in Elaine Yiu, Rebecca Chan and Mimi Chu.

And now....I no longer care.

Most Improved Male Artist
King Kong
Him Law
Edwin Siu
Oscar Leung
Vincent Wong

Most Improved Female Artist
Mandy Wong
Eliza Sam
Christine Kuo
Katy Kung
Cilla Lok

Thoughts: thank goodness this is not the "official" list...or so I hope.

I am not satisfy with the voting system at all. Personally think it would be better if the fav Characters are voted by the audience...which will make a lot more sense right? Since being "favourite" also means highest popularity, which is obviously what it's going to be like....

It's probably because I'm getting old....can no longer handle all this rage :P  ahaha but yah...Don't really care for the awards anymore.  I'm just going to write a post on who I think deserves the award....

And if you guys have noticed, the "Awards" poll I have been trying to pull off didn't work so well either.  So I'll just be finishing up the poll for Top 10 Series and forget about the characters etc. :/
