Watched up to ep 18...I think it's not too bad a production. However, in comparison to other YPP shows, it's not very entertaining. The cases are wonderful and as they say, "still water runs deep." The conclusions to the cases are unexpected yet believable. Everything flows very smoothly. The script is as usual extremely great and funny! However, I feel that Chilam is not making full use of his script. He is unable to portray a funny, mean, but lovable character. (Sorry to Chilam fans...pls don't murder me!) In a way, he is cute as Fu Gui though, but he should smile in a cheeky way more often. In a way, I feel that he fits serious roles more (Moonlight). He's not too good at doing comedies. Dicky would have been a better choice.
I was very impressed by Lenlen's rowdy and love-smittened character. She was simply engrossed with her role! Charming! She's so infatuated with Chilam and is often being made used of by his family that i can't help feeling sorry for her. hehe... Thats the way our beloved Anita is - always so endearing and lovable.
It's funny seeing Anita and Chilam being so mean to each other. I don't really think the show is wondeful in some parts. I skipped almost the whole
of ep 2 since it was so boring....fell asleep. It's quite tiring seeing the 2 of them bickering non-stop. I don't think I would like to see them paired again in shows. Anita milks better chemistry with people like Sun Xing or some other guys. Maybe my perception would change...but for now, it's like that. :p Fang Rou's really sweet. She's the type of actress who would make u like her after some time. The more u see her, the more u would like her.
Seeing Anita do the lion dance parts, my heart goes out to her. It's tiring carrying such a heavy weight and doing all those stunts. True, she probably had a stuntman doing all those stunts 4 her, but I keep getting reminded that she repeatedly bruised herself... I like the parts of Anita playing tricks on Chilam as well. It's really funny and cute! I don't know if it's Anita or that her character in the show is always being bullied that I find her playing tricks very lovable! I really enjoy watching her being so mean to CHilam (call me sadistic...). Anita just has the power to draw me to love her in her roles. Hopefully, she gets good roles next year....
Merry Xmas!
