Personal Note: These are only the series that are featured in the Sales Presentation; thus, all the series listed here will not necessarily be filmed, and the cast and the premise of the series are not confirmed and are subject to change.

There has been a number of movies and Mainland series revolving around the Chu-Han period recently, so not surprised that Tommy and Catherine both have plans to have Sales clips about Lu. If this series does film, it would be nice to see Gallen and Maggie work together instead....

He he.... Lee Tim Sing's upcoming April series has a name! :)

"Men with No Shadows" Theme Song MV

"Trial" - Raymond Lam

試煉 《不速之約》 主題曲 - 林峯

作曲/監製: 鄧智偉
填詞: 鄭櫻綸
編曲: Johnny Yim

#潛伏你身邊　微絲呼吸擦肩
輕輕的靠近吞佔　如滲入沒誰發現
迷惑你所思　存心摧毀歇斯
不速之約讓一切成試煉

*迷思中一邊偷生一邊偷泣偏偏不會自禁
情似遠似近跌進灰暗永永遠遠有著遺憾
迷思中一邊犧牲一邊傷心加深心裡烙印
無法再配襯那怕更近　痛已滲透終於失陷

如被困昨天　回憶抓緊據點
心聲相對立交戰如惡夢沒人發現
迷惑你所思　存心摧毀歇斯
不速之約讓一切隨悔恨在沉澱

Repeat *#

"Super Snoops" Promotional Clip 8

"Shrimp Roe Noodles" - Wong Cho Lam, Louis Yuen & Johnson Lee

蝦子麵 - 王祖藍/阮兆祥/李思捷

戇戇居居去買麵　買著個蝦子麵
媽媽沖涼　爸爸耕田　由我去買麵
爺爺失眠　就開風扇　但係冇晒電
我最節儉　用芭蕉扇來撥面
三叔公　佢回頭鬧我
乜你咁曳未去買麵

Personal Note: He he.... Just sang Adam Cheng's version of this song last week! :P

Ha ha.... Funny lyrics about buying noodles.... :D

"Forensic Heroes III" Theme Song

"Witness" - Wayne Lai & Ron Ng

目擊 《法證先鋒III》 主題曲 - 黎耀祥/吳卓羲

作曲: 葉肇中
填詞: 鄭櫻綸

黎: 藏在眼裡無休止　像塵沫掩蓋著前事
心愧但是無言　留痕亦沒辦法磨滅
吳: 層疊線索誰刪剪　淚來滴乾你潛藏哪一面
收斂極盡人前　遺留著實證說明又開展

*合: 給推敲　給推算　決意將推翻
疑惑靜待日後　尋事實未晚
就地目擊他　愈就近愈偏差
事實在分岔　重重謎團連環事態
千種心理見解　一種天理已在旁觀他
未及目擊他　用實驗做推翻
沒漏洞偏差　仍能尋回還原狀態
可分析去拆解　怎解釋理性共情之間

黎: 誰在佈置誰飾演　讓時日沖淡著前事
真相敗露人前　如沉澱突發再浮現
吳: 無奈愛意難刪剪　命途上總有共時有相異
講再會別離時　從前像幻覺眼前在伸展

Repeat *

Personal Note: Like the song, but the rock element doesn't match the series. Still prefer the theme song from part one. ;)

He he.... Can only hear Ron when he and Wayne sing together.

It sounds as though Wayne's voice was altered, as he sounds much younger here...definitely sounds different when compared to "Red Butterfly"....

When the Chinese title of this series was revealed, knew that Maggie and Moses would be portraying an 'older wife and younger husband' relationship, but still quite difficult to digest the fact that Moses will be playing a much younger character than Maggie.

Kenneth Ma's Kiss with Mandy Wong Was Very Pleasant

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

Mandy Wong, who has changed to the 'big girl' route, has not only been frequently dressing sexily recently, but also kissing simultaneously in series! After filming an intense kiss scene with Benjamin Yuen, she also filmed a kiss scene with co-star Kenneth Ma the night before. [She] also kissed until her face went gaunt. Afterward, Kenneth praised her for being good to kiss, frankly saying that it was extremely pleasant!

The night before, Kenneth and Mandy filmed a kiss scene for the new series "36 Hours on Call". Mandy, who was very into the scene, kissed until her face went gaunt, attracting a bunch of onlookers. Mandy, who intensely kissed Benjamin earlier, referred to herself as being a 'pro'. Kenneth laughingly said, "She is not as experienced as I am. In 'The Mysteries of Love', I kissed four or five girls. They laughed at me for using up my kissing quota in one go! However, I haven't done kiss scenes for a while...slightly nervous!"

As for Mandy, she revealed that her first onscreen kiss went to Him Law. When asked who was the best to kiss, she laughingly said, "Him is more moist, Benjamin has more feeling, while Kenneth is more dry! He is also very dry!" Upon hearing this, Kenneth immediately laughingly said, "But I think that you are very good to kiss...it was very pleasant".

Groans About Seeing Money Slip Through His Fingers

As for Steven Ma being dissatisfied with TVB for not attaching importance to the series "The Life and Times of a Sentinel", Kenneth, who is also this series' male lead, said, "Perhaps it is because 'Lives of Omission' will also have a movie; thus, the company put more promotion on it". He frankly said that business is business, and there is nothing more to say. [He] also said, "Steven has always been straightforward. (Did he ever mention to you about terminating his contract in advance?) Previously, we did chat. He said that there are many companies in Mainland approaching him". It has been said that Steven is dissatisfied with TVB for turning down Mainland series for him. Kenneth immediately revealed that TVB had also previously turned down two series for him, causing him to lose out on the opportunity to 'earn RMB'...extremely unfortunate!

Personal Note: He he.... You can tell that it was a forced kiss! :P

Bobby Au Yeung Not Willing to Leave TVB

Even when Bobby Au Yeung poses, it is especially eye-catching.

Bobby Au Yeung showed excitement upon seeing his photo.

Bobby Au Yeung awkwardly pointed at his look for "The File of Justice III".

When filming a promotional clip, Bobby Au Yeung played crazily with Florence Kwok.

Artiste Bobby Au Yeung was promoting a TVB programme...will be airing the classic series "Dicey Business" in which he stars in. When asked whether this series is his pick, he said, "If the company says it is, then it is. Finally my turn to have my productions air. (There are many siu sangs and fa dans leaving recently. The company is using this to appease you?) If I were to leave, I would have left early on". He stressed that he has good relations with TVB...not willing to leave.

Personal Note: TVB is finally airing "Our...Bobby Au Yeung Series"! :D So humble of Bobby to say that, in his heart, he has no classics. :) His series should be airing for a while, since he has many good series and sequels to his series. :)
