The results for the "2009 Television Programme Appreciation Index Survey" were announced yesterday, and TVB's "Rosy Business" received an average of an Appreciation Index of 80.83, ranking in at number one. It is also the only TV series in the top ten, as the rest are news and variety programmes. Apart from "Rosy Business", TVB also has three other programmes in the top ten list: "Tuesday/Sunday Report", "News Magazine", and "Being". The other six are RTHK programmes.
The Appreciation Index reports a total of 201 programmes that aired last year. In the bottom ten, ATV has five programmes, which includes 《男人做晒》 and "Here Comes the Mammon". TVB has two programmes in the bottom ten, which are "Miss Hong Kong Pageant 2009" (ranked 200) and "A Bride for a Ride" (ranked 198). Cable TV has the other three programmes in the bottom ten, which includes 《郭晶晶 豪門彈板跳》 (ranked 201) and 《串爆娛樂》.
Since the survey began, this is the first time that a series placed number one overall. In 1998, "Healing Hands" was placed number two overall.

Personal Note: Congratulations to "Rosy Business" and "A Bride for a Ride"! Even though "A Bride for a Ride" is placed at 198, it is still better than not making in. ;)

ReplyDeleteThis survey is for all of the programmes aired in 2009, but not all of the programmes made in onto the list of 201. There has to be more programmes than 201 aired in 2009 on TVB, ATV, RTHK, and Cable.
As other series were not mentioned in the news, "Rosy Business" and "A Bride for a Ride" are probably the only TV series that made it on the 201 list. :)
Is that so? From the article my take seems different
ReplyDeleteTop 10 places: RB
Worst 10 places: A bride for a Ride and MHK 2009
11-101 place: Other TVB programmes
Maybe the middle places aren't mentioned because they are not as 'interesting' sounding compare to Best 10 and Worst 10. Just my take.

ReplyDeleteNo, you read this. RB is INDEED NO. 1, and the only TV drama to make it to No. 1 since they started this survey in 1998.

ReplyDeleteMiss HK and "A Bride for a Ride" are not necessarily the worst. It is just placed 200th and 198th out of the 201 programmes.
Out of the entire year of 2009, there has to be more than 201 programmes aired on TVB, ATV, RTHK, and Cable. These are the 201 that made on the appreciation index. So, it is a good thing no matter if it is at the top or bottom of the list. :)

Didn't "Square Pegs" get number 1 for the year of 2003?
I remember "Healing Hands II" placing quite high for the year of 2000. :)
Haha, I read from some Chinese online article that Rosy Business was the 1st drama that made it to the top spot. Here's the link. :)

I did some digging myself, too. ;)
"Rosy Business" is the first series placed at number one since the survey started in 1998. In 1998, "Healing Hands" was placed number two overall. ATV's variety programme "Stories from Afar" beat it with by 1.76 average.
