Personal Note: Raymond's wig is so 囧! He looks like Luffy from "One Piece"! :P
Raymond's playing a 'hea' character again....
Although Madam Lo is only a few years older than KK, she seems much older, since she has been playing housewife characters for many years.
He he.... Selena and Natalie's Chinese names mixed up again, as their names are quite similar and quite common. Also remember Ma Ming mixing their names at the fitting of "The Life and Times of a Sentinel", as well as Aimee referring to Natalie as 'Si Wan' during the photo shoot of TVB's 2009 calendar! :P
'Lazy One' is indeed a funny and easy way to remember Selena's Chinese name! :D

Raymond W's Wig looked okay with out the hat though... although wigs in TVB are bad in general...
ReplyDeleteRuco is in glasses as always again but he and Selena look very matching! Looking forward to their collaboration. Definitely looking forward to the guitar and singing scenes.
I'm guessing there will be an older generation love story in the background, based on having younger versions of characters..
I like the cast in general. Is Aimee really the lead? Why Aimee? I prefer Elaine Yiu over her. This would have been a much better series if Selena and Elaine are leading rather than Aimee.
ReplyDeleteAimee and Selena should be sharing the lead.
DeleteWell I guess they were trying to find actresses who knew how to play instrument well? so Aimee and Selena fit the bill since the both have the highest Level 10 piano skills. I would prefer if someone else like Nancy Wu was lead but oh well. Can't really do anything about TVB politics and who they want to promote. They can't see nor appreciate talent even if it starred them in the face.
ReplyDeleteThat is a terrible wig on Raymond W! Is that going to be his hair in the series?!
ReplyDeleteIs Ruco the first lead or is Raymond W? The series looks like it's about music, so Ruco is main because Raymond W doesn't have anything to do with music?
What about the female lead?
Raymond was bald for "The Confidant". This series has already begun filming, so this should be his look for this series.
DeleteRuco/Raymond and Aimee/Selena should be sharing the lead.
awww jacky wong is back!! :) even though he's not the cute little adorable boy anymore, happy to see him back in tvb series! :) ahahaha
ReplyDeleteWhy Aimee
ReplyDeleteHappy to know that Ruco is in new serial again.
ReplyDeleteI really dislike Raymond Wong's wig, OMG why did they do that to him! I rather he had a bald look for the series. At least it'd look cool, way better than that hideous wig! ><"
ReplyDeleteStill not sure what the main focus of this series is but I like the fact they'll be filming in Cheung Chau. We'll get something different from the usual scenery.
You wrote: "Matthew Ko will play Jess Sum's financé." I think you mean: "fiancé" ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the correction, lizzy.
Deletewhat type of drama is it?
