Kenneth Ma and Tavia Yeung will film a new series with a group of newcomers, virtually taking on the responsibility of looking after newcomers.
This year, TVB is determined to promote newcomers to film series. Apart from the "Triumph in the Skies" sequel using newcomers, producer Poon Ka Tak's new series, "36 Hours on Call", which revolves around medical interns, will also have newcomers taking on prominent roles. This series has temporarily cast Kenneth Ma and Tavia Yeung in the leading roles.

Personal Note: When my sister and I first heard about this series, she said that Ma Ming and Tavia would be in it, as their schedules fit, and their age range is suitable for the genre.
Apart from his guest-starring roles, Ma Ming hasn't taken part in a modern series since "The Mysteries of Love", so hope that the cast does not change!
At the costume fitting of "The Truth", Tavia said that she was able to indirectly fulfill her mother's wishes by portraying a cop, a teacher, and a lawyer, and that she had yet to take on a doctor role. With the series revolving around medical interns, it seems that she may be able to do so.
Big fan of "Grey's Anatomy", so looking forward to this series. :)

OMG! More of my two favs. in the same series again?! Please keep MM and Tata!!!
ReplyDeletegahhh i really don't like kenneth, i don't know why, but i find him really annoying >< i also don't like the tavia/kenneth pairing...hahah too many dislikes in this but maybe my opinions will change if he's able to do a super great job at portraying his role
ReplyDeleteI find Kenneth and Tavia similar in their outlooks and personality, even their acting road is pretty similar. Anyways, nice to see them pair up again, if it's true. :D
ReplyDeletemy first thought was Grey's Anatomy as well!! I too love that show so hopefully this will not disappoint!! I lurveeee Kenneth & Tavia!!
ReplyDeleteTo Anonymous Kenneth is too good for Tavia. Kenneth should pair with good actress like Charmaine and Linda.
ReplyDeleteTo Jenny: Psh you saying kenneth is too good for tavia? How? i mean tavia won more awards than kenneth and is more popular than kenneth
ReplyDeleteTo Anonymous Charmaine and Linda have many more awards than Tavia and are more popular than her.
ReplyDeleteTo Anonymous, how can you not like Ma Ming?! He is good looking, a hard worker & an awesome actor!! What's not to love!!
ReplyDeleteBut that must be such a complement, for a producer to cast an actor to carry a series with lesser known actors.
ReplyDelete@ Jenny: just to be fair, Linda has won less than 8 acting awards throughout her career thus far, most are popularity awards.. Tavia has won more than 15 awards, most are recognized awards in hk/china but she has started to win popularity ones also.. Charmaine is needless to say, she has always been popular and recognized with numerous awards.. we shouldn't even be arguing who is better than who, you can never win.. and we shouldn't even drag Charmaine and Linda into it.. all these actresses are at different levels and styles of acting.. it's up to TVB and producers as to who they cast in their series, it's a waste of breath whinging about it!
ReplyDeletehahaha. My first thought was grey's anatomy too! I am looking forward to that! I don't really like Ma Ming at first too. But after watching AFOS, I really think he is good actor :) -Lynn
ReplyDeleteexcited :-D!
ReplyDeleteI love them both! They've never been paired up before, so i'm also super excited for "Return to 3 Kingdoms"!
ReplyDeleteYay for Kenneth and Tavia's version of Grey's anatomy. This series look great for Kenneth.
ReplyDeleteI hope Tavia can show her capability better this time in a leading role. She has been repeatedly overshadowed by others in her recent series.
