Comment: I am glad that 'My Ages Apart' received the award. For a 50 episode drama, I was pleasantly surprised at how it remained entertaining until the very end. It was quirky, comedic and engaging throughout the whole drama. I remember laughing out loud at a few parts of the series and honestly, I have not done so with a TVB drama in awhile :) The whole cast also gave a great performances with a group of endearing characters. I personally loved Moses and his random spurts of English, along with Paris' ditzy but pure-hearted character. The trio of Bobby, Moses and Louis was also a charismatic bunch to watch whenever they appeared together.

My memorable mentions for 2017? The other hot contestant for best series in the media was 'The Exorcist's Meter'. Honestly I would've been happy if this drama won as well. While 'My Ages Apart' kept me entertained on every episode, the latter was endearing, emotional and managed to pull a few of my heartstrings. In particular, the music scores in here were especially memorable.

My personal runner-ups for this year would also include 'Destination Nowhere' and 'My Dearly Sinful Mind'. Kristal Tin and Kevin Cheng were just great in their roles in 'Destination Nowhere'. Honestly, Kristal Tin performance in here should've earned her the Best Actress award as it was phenomenal in my opinion. As for the drama itself, story was engaging and the anticipation to see how it would unfold was rewarding. For 'My Dearly Sinful Mind', I found Kenneth Ma's character so odd with the obsession over his girlfriend's death but rather enjoyable as he began to find more clues to his questions. Grace Wong's character in here was especially intriguing to watch and was probably the highlight for me.

Anything else? I did not watch 'Tiger Mom Blues' or 'Legal Mavericks', where both series were very popular as well.
Comment: I did not watch 'Legal Mavericks' and so cannot comment on Vincent's performance in here. On the other hand though, he has been a very capable and dependable actor so I am very happy for his win! Personally a fan hehe :D

Special mentions for this year? Moses Chan in 'My Ages Apart'? I personally loved him in there and thought he did a great job. After so many bad roles, I'm so glad to see him taking on a more interesting role. He does so well in roles that has a mixture of comedy and drama.
Comment: Wait what? I thought she was a supporting actress in there? It is so sad how few real contenders there are in the Best Actress sector, whether it's this year or prior years. Kristal Tin hands down got my vote for this award.

Comment: Yups, can't argue here haha
Comment: Interesting...was her character popular from here? My personal favs are Moon Lau in 'The exorcist's Meter', Grace Wong in 'My Dearly Sinful Mind' and Ali Lee in 'My Ages Apart'.

Comment: cool

Comment: I just can't anymore....I am not happy with any of the female recipients this year.

Comment: Interesting...he've been acting way too long for this award I think haha. Was definitely expecting Matthew Ho cause there was just so much rave over him.

Comment: Who is she? Q.Q


Comment: I have it downloaded onto my phone so yes, I approve of this award haha

Comment: yehhhh

(Long overdue post and more to come cause I absolutely fell in love with this drama haha)

Vincent Wong and Tracy Chu is absolutely adorable together!  Their relationship did not reach its romantic point until the last few episodes, but it did not feel rushed at all.  From foes to friends and then into something more, I personally really liked how their relationship spanned out through the series and how it remained on the sideline without distracting the overall plot.  Despite that though, their romance became the most touching element of the series.  It's been awhile since tvb managed to tug my heart like how they did in Over Run Over and lets say, I am genuinely surprised.

Vincent isn't perfect, like k-drama perfect but he still caught my heart and obviously, Tracy's as well.  The two started off as bickering enemies but was forced to work together to find the black cop.  As the two work together, Tracy is beginning to see him more than a friend:

Tracy: Yes, he has a foul mouth, is sneaky and messy...but he also have a kind heart. He is very good to his brothers, a filial son, a devoted man. Because of you, he is willing to do anything. He has given up a lot. Men like him are rare nowadays, if you've found him, you shouldn't let go. 

Christine: If you say he's that great, why don't you take him. 

Tracy: If I have a boyfriend like him, I will definitely cherish him.

The level of awkwardness that Tracy is feeling...7/10.  It's an indirect confession haha.
Tracy's engagement day and Vincent sent her a necklace as an engagement gift.  The necklace is the one that day spotted at a shop before where the clerk mistook them for a couple.

First off may I say that Tracy looked amazing in the white dress!!  She is super pretty!!  It's rare to see her smile cause she is always so grumpy in here, but she smiled so happily when she saw the necklace :)
Since she sensed that Vincent is in danger, she headed over to him instead of her engagement party.  During the conflict with the black cop, an explosive knocked Vincent and Tracy down.  In critical condition, Tracy hauled Vincent back to the power lines before the midnight in order to travel back in time and save him.  On the way back, she reveals how important he is to her.
Back to day 1 (time travelled back), Vincent ran straight to Tracy to tell her he loves her.

This is probably one of the cutest scene, especially since he ran to her in his pyjamas :D The smile on Tracy's face was so genuine and expressed how much she loves him.  Haha they're both adorable together.

[Thoughts on Episode 1] Click Link Here

The series started off with Vincent Wong's narration, "have you ever promised someone you would never leave them but you couldn't do it?" He spoke about how it may be idealistic to have the chance to change certain things of the past but in the end, these things were all fated to happen. In the end, you may be able to change certain things but cause changes in others and you are all left alone with memories. The narration continues on as he apologize to Tracy Chu for not loving her soon enough and how much he regret it.
After the narration, the series shifted to the present day of April 1st. EU sergeant, Ling San Fung (Tracy Chu), and her team encountered 4 criminals in the middle of the night. The group escaped and while San Fung try to locate them again, she is repetitively interrupted by the village chief, Kwan Ding Ming (Vincent Wong). Towards the end, the crew managed to corner the four criminals and a shoot out occurred. After the confrontation, San Fung found her dad dead among the rubble.
San Fung spotted the criminal and was following him until she was knocked over by Ding Ming's car.  Funny thing is, the criminal was about to pull the gun on her but he stopped because of the crash.

San Fung's friends, Lee Chi Ting (Zoie Tam) and Ho Siu Mei (Moon Lau).  Chi Ting is a reporter and Siu Mei is a model.  Is it just me of does Zoie Tam kind of resemble Myolie Wu in here?  Is it the haircut?
San Fung spotted the criminal again at the village celebration and as she raced after him, she ran into Ding Ming in the men's restroom.  It is quite obvious that he is somehow involved, but how...?  He always appear at the same place as criminal and San Fung.
San Fung was crying (because of her father's death) when one of her team mates, Chan King Wai (Pal Sinn) came over to console her.  He told her that it is painful to lose someone close to you, but soon she'll be able to adapt to the pain.  More so, he said that some things are meant to happen and no matter what she does, it will still happen.  Seems like he know about the time travelling events.  His character is quite intriguing to watch because it seems like he know more than what is shown.  As of right now, San Fung just think of him as a teammate who does not sincerely care for his job and I am interested in why he came out to be so.
Warped back in time.  This episode led off to a very good start.  Time travelling can be messy, so I hope it doesn't get out of hand.  Nonetheless, I will be chasing down this drama for Tracy Chu and Vincent Wong :P  btw the title is just horrible and makes no sense.

I have been scratching my head for the last few days, wondering what kind of new banner to make. I still have no idea. This is seriously the most useless thing to think about during exams season but I can't help it xD Oh well...I'm the kind to try to make up stuff to do when I am stress in order to distract myself from doing what I know I should be doing haha.

Anyways, I haven't use photoshop for almost...half a year? I dunno. When I first did the poster of Eliza and Ron, they were just blocks. Afterwards I started adding colours and then words...so weird to use. On a side note, my laptop is like an aging dinosaur because I don't remember it being this SLOW back then.

Haha anyways, back to the drama. If you haven't start it, DOOOOO ITTTT!! First episode was surprisingly good and so were the following episodes after that. The story is tight so far and I'm especially intrigued by all the prisoners' stories and what has been going in jail as well. Hopefully they'll also have a nice balance between that and the romance later on...please don't focus too much on the romance.

RANDOM THOUGHTS

Kate Tsui is actually...good in here! I was quite surprise since Kate and officer role usually equals boring. This time around though, she's actually got some personality :P Kaka is such a bubbly girl and Kate nails those parts! Though the fake eyelashes still exists, it's not too bad as it was in Bounty Lady haha. The only scenes where I feel she still needs to work on is the scenes where she's in her officer outfit. When she doesn't try to act cool or as some may say...chok, Kate is alot more enjoyable to watch haha. So please continue this Kate!!!

(FYI, I heard that Kate initially wanted to turn down this role? Thank goodness she didn't! I haven't enjoyed watching her so much for awhile now! Though I did somewhat like her in Bounty Lady...I still felt that her comedic scenes were kind of forced there. In here though, I'm just...somewhat loving her right now haha).

Oh...what do you guys think of Kate's hair?  I initially thought it looked weird but after a couple of episodes, I find her adorable in it!  Haha I think the haircut really suits her bubbly character.

Lawrence Ng as the casanova officer? Yups! I'm liking it alot. I like how uptight he because I think it's quite funny haha. He'll gradually be changing for Kate though! What do you guys think of the two?

Lawrence and Kate pairing?
Hmm....I'd like to say there is chemistry and they're actually very cute when they're together! Surprise! Even though they're suppose to be 'uncle and niece' (Lawrence is just a close family friend and is not actually her uncle), when they're together, it gives off more of a feeling of a couple which I thank god for! If it did really feel like father-daughter like, it would be a disaster!

On the other hand, the story doesn't help them much because it showed how Lawrence knew Kate since she was a child and it is indeed difficult to develop a love story from there. Though they were separated when she was around 10 because she went to...the States or something, she did come back to Hong Kong in her teen years. She seem to have lived separately from him though but they still had a very close 'uncle-niece' relationship. To me, I can see how Kate fell for him. On the other hand, I don't know how Lawrence will fall for Kate since he did watch her grow up. Hmm.....this could go either way tvb, either a cute love story or a creepy one. For now, I think the interaction between the two is quite cute....but the way their relationship was set out in the beginning, it is also on the verge of creepiness. Lols

Some random scenes between the two:
Kate and her friends are having a party to congratulate her getting married.  During the party, Kate lost to a bet of some kind and was dared to kiss the first stranger that walked down the stairs outside.  In the beginning there was this not so good looking guy walking down but out of nowhere, Lawrence showed up.  Kate rushed up to give him a kiss so she doesn't have to kiss the other guy.  Initially the group thought Lawrence was her fiance but turns out he's her "Uncle Man".

Seriously, why did they make her call him uncle?  It's hecka creepy to start a love story haha
Lawrence decided to go on a date.  On the date, they were ordering food and Lawrence rejected all the dishes that the girl wanted to order haha.  I don't know why she would be...but she seems like she's head over heels for Lawrence.  In the end, they ordered the seafood dishes that Lawrence wanted.  Half way through the dinner though, she became really itchy and when Lawrence asked why, she said she's allergic to seafood :P  She's like, "It's no problem, I just need to go to the hospital to get a few shots."  LMAO  I thought this scene was so funny haha.
Lawrence is telling Kate about how his date went while cooking for her.  It's so cute how she blasted up the music when Lawrence started to talk about the instructions manual he read for some kind of appliance.  There is chemistry the two but it's such a pity how she calls him "uncle".  It's not even the age that's the problem but it is their relationship status.
Kate and her No Fear bear that Lawrence bought for her when she was young.
In order to wake him up, Kate clipped Vincent's ear.  This was cute and funny.  I love this bubbly Kate haha.
Yeung Chiu Hoi murdered his stepfather because that guy raped his sister and got sent to jail for that. I've liked him in his previous roles and I'm glad to see that his role is quite hefty in here. I think Yeung Chiu Hoi is quite a talented actor and his emotional scenes in here are all quite well done :D I'm impress haha

It is so sad how there is a limit to how much our laws can do.  Yeung Chiu Hoi did what he did for his sister.  Who can deny that their bastard of a stepfather deserved what he got?  ...I understand he has to pay for taking away a life but yet, it feels so unfair to him.  UGHHHHH too much going on...it's just too sad Q.Q

Another love story with an age difference between Vincent Wong and Josie Ho.  This time around, the guy is younger than the girl.  Back in his teen years, Vincent hung out with some gangstery (this is not a word...haha) friends and almost got into trouble.  Luckily Josie let him off the hook and even gave him a gingerbread man.  To him, she's the reason why he didn't land up in jail and he has been very grateful for that.  After finding out that Josie is in jail, he decided to visit her to personally thank her.

Josie: You want to come again?  You don't need to do that.  I just gave you a gingerbread man.  You don't need to buy me anything in return.

Vincent:  You didn't just give me a gingerbread man, you also gave me a future.  If you hadn't given me a chance back then, I would still be hanging out with those guys.  Hell is only one step away from heaven.  You were the one that led me to heaven.

Dang, that last line by Vincent.  I am loving all the scenes he's in right now and Vincent is doing quite well, as usual haha.  As for Josie, I think her character is kind of crazy and there are times when I think she is indeed crazy....especially when it comes to her leg and son.  I find her character quite interesting though and I do want to know more about her past and how her character will develop.  Josie is a good actress and I'm glad to see her for the first time in here. 

Even though Vincent and Josie does not look exactly well matched, I do have hope in their story.
