I just watched this drama cause I never saw it when it aired...and at the beginning it was kinda a bit like meh but towards the middle/ending omg it got so good! 'Ko' family got what they deserved and I liked cried in all the scenes with niki and raymond after they find out who each other was like awww:') and the ending omg I like cried like a baby after like 20years of trying to find each other they never even got proper time together:( why did he have to die:( and we never knew what happened until the doctor told her what happened and she had waited 6years for him and they never even got to say goodbye:'( the girl who played niki as a child is so cute aw:') I swear I've seen her in other dramas is she that girl in missing you to? Niki's crying scenes are so good though she makes it so emotional and loads of feelings like everytime she cries I cry even in other dramas!

TVB 2012 Anniversary Awards-Best Drama

o.0 so many i'm not sure i want to write something for every single one .__.

When Heaven Burns <天與地>-i didn't watch it >_<

Bottled Passion <我的如意狼君>-i didn't watch it >_<

Wish and Switch <換樂無窮>- i liked this drama it was funny and had a good message to it.  i really liked the comedy at the beginning but then in the end it got so serious and i was like well that was unexpected.

L’Escargot <缺宅男女>- was another one of those dramas where before it aired i was like this looks interesting i'm going to watch it!  but then when it actually airs i'm just like oh.  maybe my expectations are too high?  i watched it while it was airing and their own family basically got onto m nerves.  i kept on going like why would you do that?!!!!!  but i liked how to explored the idea of how hk has serious housing problems.  and they brought in the political topic of mainlanders stealing all the hospital beds and all.  i shall re watch this whole drama properly in the near future

Let It Be Love <4 in Love>- this was another one of those dramas were i was like looks interesting, but then turns out to be mediocre.  I'll have to say TVB does have some very new and interesting concept sometimes just the way the execute it is a bit repetitive?  i mean i don't mind them having their own style cause it makes them unique.  but maybe it's time to try something new?  but yeah.  i was so excited cause TVB rarely does stories based purely on love.  as much as i can't stand cheesiness but it's just such a sub topic to TVB that i got excited XD  but the good thing about the drama was that all the 4 stories linked together subtly but it was also easy to reconise bonds between different storylines.

The Hippocratic Crush <On Call 36小時>-MY BIAS!!! obviously.  the drama had good life lessons, yes i love them!  because everyone knows you learn life lessons from watching tv.  it gave off a sweet feeling between Yu Jai and Yut Kin Tou <3  it managed to build up suspense which toned down in the right time frame near the end.  it wasn't a sudden ending which was good :)  i liked how they didn't just solely focus on the main leads, but also on other sub characters but not too draggy that we forgot what actually happened to people when the switch between the different lines.  this drama has a high chance of winning but there is quite some strong competition based on popularity.

Queen of Hearts and Diamonds <東西宮略>never finished watching this properly either (i'm so bad :()  and you know this was another drama i was looking forward to, but then i got lazy chasing it every night, then i just stopped watching.  my dedication's 0 >_<  sorry guys i'll work harder at keeping up next year (i always say that OTL)  it was ok at the beginning but since i didn't watch a substantial amount i can't really comment much.  i shall watch this one as well XD  but i highly doubt this drama's going to win with all the competition out there.

Daddy Good Deeds <當旺爸爸>-This wasn't a drama that i was really anticipating.  but it surprised me.  no prize for guessing i like good comedies :)  even though there was like no prominent set story line it was a relaxing thing to watch at the end of a tiring day.  it almost felt like i was watching a shorter version of a sitcom :)

The Greatness of  Hero <盛世仁傑>- i wasn't even interested at the least >_<  i think i'm over ancient dramas for the moment. sorry 

Gloves Come Off <拳王>-at the beginning i was like KEVIN CHENG! BIAS!  then i saw raymond wong (it's not that i hate him or anything, just that i'm not that keen on seeing him on screen)  but i was like meh still giving this a try for various reasons.  and then it just got too draggy for me.  so i just stopped. though kevin's relationship with his son <3 but that's another story.  i shall re watch this in the near future

House of Harmony and Vengeance <耀舞長安>-this might be slightly biased, but i do dancing so i like dancing dramas? lol anyways it's been a long time in which TVB has shown it's dancing skills in a drama.  i think the last time must have been steps?  and as much as i would have liked them to show more dancing they didn't which is probably mainly because the artists aren't professional dancers.  since TVB=no auditions for roles. but i think they did ok.  but in terms of best drama, i don't think it's popular enough.  or deep enough as matter of fact.

Come Home Love <愛．回家>-um, i kinda gave up after a few episodes, because i'm too impatient to constantly chase the next episode, so i'm probably going to watch after it all finishes airing. lol 300 episodes XD

Master of Play <心戰>-apparently this drama's pretty deep like when heaven burns.  i think i would've enjoyed it if i wasn't such a scaredy cat XD  but since alot of housewives kind of object to scary stuff it probably isn't that intensly popular.

No Good Either Way <衝呀！瘦薪兵團>-this drama was so so.  it wasn't under developed, but it wasn't a drama which held everyone's attention for very long.

Tiger Cubs <飛虎>-this drama was quite amazing.  considering all the props and stuff you can imagine how much TVB invested in this drama.  although i don't know SDU stuff very well at the least it seemed realistic. and it was full of action every episode.  which is something that is rarely seen on TVB.

Witness Insecurity <護花危情>-this was the drama with the most viewers before the confident and SSSS.  i'm not too sure after the finale last night.  but it kind of feel like this drama's popularity is so fan girl based!  i mean sure i enjoyed the drama and all.  but really in terms of substantial storyline other than linda getting better, and paul getting arrested.  nothing else really important happened.

Three Kingdoms RPG <回到三國>-i'll have to say the drama sort of had a trend of interesting-->boring-->starts getting interesting again.  i guess it was kind of draggy. but i watched patiently because i wasn't too familiar with chinese history at the time so i wasn't sure how things were supposed to work.  but thanks to the drama i know heaps more now :)

Ghetto Justice 2 <怒火街頭2>-ok the sequel wasn't worse than the previous.  but maybe it's because it's no longer a surprise to us and that we've gotten used to it.  it seemed like the couple's relationship just dwindled  for a long time, but it wasn't tooo draggy.  but there was quite decent acting and i did enjoy this drama :)

King Maker <造王者>-i didn't watch it

Divas in Distress <巴不得媽媽…>-definitely enjoyable and had a good message to it about dooms day and what the most important things are in life.  but best drama?  i think there are other dramas out there.

The Last Steep Ascent <天梯>-i barely watched 15minutes of a random episode.

Highs and Lows <雷霆掃毒>- to me this maybe one of the strongest competitors against THC.  yeah i know what about the anniversary dramas?  yeah i'm sure a lot of people are going to like them.  but to me they carry a very weird storyline.  so i'm not too sure.  i mean it's probably good, but since i gave up on them kind of early-ish on can't really comment.  but since highs and lows has raymond in it (which matters to a lot of people)  has kate being the drug queen.  the chances of the popularity making it win are pretty high.  i mean the storyline developed quite thoroughly so yeah.

Silver Spoon, Sterling Shackles <名媛望族>-didn't watch enough.  but as m friend told me, funny how they all marry peasants even though they are rich.

The Confidant <大太監>-gave up very early on >_<

Witness Insecurity ending rant

OMG the ending was so stupid.. was it even NECESSARY to kill off Bosco's character? What's more stupid is that he took the hit for Kiu Kong San, the man he's been trying to put in jail the entire time, the man that KILLED Ba Da. If anything Kiu Kong San should be the one that got hit..  Why couldn't Hui sir just let Kiu Kong San get hit?! I get it's like blahblah justice has to be properly served and he has to go to jail but losing his own LIFE just to put Kiu Kong San in jail is just so UNREALISTIC. I doubt anyone would die for their enemy... even a justice-centred person like Hui sir is a bit far-fetched. 

Also I get that he wanted to 'rush' to see Chi Lam but couldn't he have just went to the hospital first? I know seeing 'the love of your life' is important and all but shouldn't you at LEAST check up at the hospital being making such a rash decision and drive off in a motorcycle. Why didn't his workers/colleagues stop Hiu sir?! IT WAS SO OBVIOUS HE WAS HURT BECAUSE HE PASSED OUT FOR A FEW SECONDS.. THEY SHOULD'VE AT LEAST TRIED TO STOP HIM WHAT IS THIS. I don't even understand why Hui Sir had to die, it served NO PURPOSE whatsoever to the plot or the message the drama is trying to convey. Maybe it'll make more sense if he 'died' to serve justice but they already had evidence to charge Kiu Kong San so what's the point of him dying. I can see the director was trying to make their relationship more 'TRAGIC' but sorry I don't see it, as I said here, I never really felt their chemistry in Witness Insecurity. SERIOUSLY how stupid of Hui sir (a smart police officer) to just run off like that and it's just so much more unrealistic because we don't see Hui sir's sudden epiphany for his loves for Chi Lam so it's quite unbelievable. 

I thought he got shot or something when he suddenly spat out blood in his helmet but then I realised it was the after effect of the collision. Couldn't Chi Lam call the ambulance!!!! 

Overall the ending was pretty bad... I reckon they could've elaborated more on Linda's reaction to her dad going to jail.. Isn't her dad one of the main focus of the drama? Maybe like a two years later... Chi Lam comes into terms with her father's crime and sees Hui Sir on the streets from a distance or something... 

When Bosco drove off with his motorcycle I was like "It's going to be repeat of Raymond's fate in Heart of Greed isn't it..." The ending in a way is sorta like Bottled Passion but BP was sadder for me because Raymond and Nikki really evoked the star-crossed lovers feeling.

I think a better ending would be Bosco doesn't die but he still doesn't get together with Chi Lam because their relationship would be too complicated. After all he is the person responsible for putting her dad into jail, there will always be a barrier in Chi Lam's heart because of that. I was hoping they wouldn't focus too much on the romance side of things but I guess they did..

I felt like Linda's portrayal of Chi Lam was really annoying. Her open-mouthed, indignant expressions felt really contrived... Her character jut annoyed me so much in general .. I think in episode 16? where she says "Hui sir wants to break up with me" to Cilla and I'm like "WHAT YOU GUYS NEVER DATED..." OMG especially when chi lam was confiding to her psychologist about how she feels conflicted between her dad and Hui sir, I'm sorry her acting was just not convincing. 

Overall, I didn't think this drama was that good.. I only watched this for Bosco.. I don't understand why everyone is saying this is the 'best series of 2012'. 

I actually liked the Bosco and Linda pairing in Moonlight pairing better!!

Okay I know I'm really slow, only started watching bottled passion recently.. xD But anyway, this scene cracked me up where the two brothers posed as fortune tellers and they kinda switched hairstyles HAHA! Lo Yat was just giving the what in the world face and even Tsui Sum looked surprised and was totally awkward xD
