    Default New Mediacorp 2005 100-Episode Drama - Tong Xin Yuan

    The story revolves around a fishball making family.

    Cast of this 100 episodes production includes:

    Xiang Yun, Chen Shucheng, Cynthia Koh, Terence Chao, Vivian Lai, Apple Hong.
    I think Adrian Pang is also in this show because he is supposed to be involved in a 100-episode long drama once he transfers over to Mediacorp.

    Well, it is nice to see Mediawork artistes having new roles, but FOOD drama again. Lame.

    Pirated Holland V? The food concept was the exact reason why I refused to watch Spice Siblings. Oh well, I guess I'll give it a chance..

    Wow. What I read in a Singapore forum is true, ne? That Mediacorp is really into promoting local food. Chicken rice (years back when Thomas Ong just went back), nasi lemak, laksa, fish&chips... now fishball? Can anyone guess what's next? Maybe yong taufoo?

    I think the pre-2000/2001 shows are better than the recent shows. They dared to be more creative back then. After Mediawork was formed, they became cowardly, repeating the same formulae again and again and again and again.

    Ah, this is so frustrating, another long family drama!! How long are they going to continue repeating the same formula again and again? I was never a big fan of Holland V, kind of too gimmicky for me... then came Double Happiness, equally lame... then another fishball rubbish show.... ugh.
