looks interesting

[sunnysnow]

I watched the first 2 episodes on tudou last week. It's a typical slapstick comedy type of series with lotsa weird, exaggerated humour though the storyline is pretty alright for now. Although it's a mainland production, the humour has a very taiwanese element to it. Ady and Fu Miao (Gongsun Lu'e in ROCH06) look very pretty in here. The male leads, especially Huang Weide are pretty annoying though. Hu Bin is surprisingly tolerable though, probably cause he doesn't have an arrogant and irritating role in here.

[WuxiaGem]

I agree with sunnysnow that it's typical slapstick comedy that's pretty similar with Mouse Loves Big Rice. One big complaint I have it that they kind of kill the humour by overdoing it. For example, they sing Richie Ren's "Dui Mian de Nv Hai Kang Guo Lai" waaaay too often and the twin boys are not that funny when they speak in cheng yu all the time. The exaggerated portions of the show can get pretty embarrassing like when Le Min revealed that she's a woman, she started posing very provocatively and I cringed.

But aside from all these awkward moments, the show is pretty entertaining when you just want to kill time and watch a feel-good romantic comedy.

I love sexy Fu Miao as Gong Sun Lu'er. Any pics?

[Lady Zhuge]

I know he's not one of the leads, but does Bao Jian Feng get much screentime in here?

Im not sure, I stopped watching at episode 3 cause im really busy now. BJF seems more like a supporting character though and his character pairs up with Ady's character for awhile in the series, though the latter eventually ends up with Hu Bin's character.

U can find a couple of hers in the pics link i posted in the 1st post. She looks very different in here though as she spots a short hairstyle for the earlier bits of the series. She appears in male disguise for the first 2 episodes and looks pretty cute in it.

Thanks anyway. I didn't think he'd have much screentime since this series isn't even listed on his official agency page. Based on the feedback so far, it sounds like this series isn't worth watching unless there's not much else to watch.

[YongJian]

Watched the 1st few episodes as well.

The drama is shot in Singapore (At least from the 1st few episodes i watched). Seems to be quite a low budget drama. It's like, OMG! C'mon, a guy who is suppose to be damn rich & powerful with a chaffeur travelling in a Toyota Vios?

Storyline seems to be quite crappy as well. Only thing worth watching will be Ady i suppose.

Yeah, i almost rofl-ed at that scene. And their wedding ceremony wasn't held in a classy, expensive venue as well..Bintan?? Gee..

I think the first half is shot entirely in S'pore, they'll show Sentosa later cause i remember Ady shooting with Bao Jianfeng there. They shot the series in Spore, Qingdao and Taiwan as well if im not wrong.

Can you imagine a good sister / bad sister movie featuring Ady and Vicki?

They acted in a series together before, but not as sisters. As love rivals though

[Leanna]

what kind of role does Xiao Qiang and Yu Xiao Wei play as?

Aaaargh! mushy stuff!

[sunnysnow]

Im not sure about Xiao Qiang but i think she plays a dancer who Huang Weide's character falls for though the latter ultimately ends up with Fu Miao's character.

Yu Xiaowei plays a villian. He's a rich guy who is supposed to marry Ady's character but the latter runs away from him after she discovers him cheating on her with one of the bridesmaid at the wedding. Yu Xiaowei's character then goes after her and even uses her parents to threaten her.

Oh, i thought BaoBao was the character Ady's suppose to marry. So who does BaoBao end up with?
God, the pairing is confusing, but my order is still taking a week to arrive
