TVB’s latest prime-time television drama Never Dance Alone <女人俱樂部> has become a hot topic of discussion among television audiences in Hong Kong. With the story told in two timelines – the past and the present – the nostalgia-inducing comedy drama brings back the goddesses of the nineties Carman Lee (李若彤), Rachel Lee (李麗珍), Fennie Yuen (袁潔瑩), Flora Chan (陳慧珊), Gloria Yip (葉蘊儀), Angie Cheong (張慧儀), and Elvina Kong (江欣燕). Although debut week ratings were less than stellar, Never Dance Alone has been earning positive reviews from both critics and viewers, and it is expected for ratings to continue to rise throughout its month-long broadcast.
Besides the seven leads, the actresses who portray their younger versions have also been achieving popularity. Netizens gave them the nickname “New Generation of Young Male Killers”, noting the girls’ beauty and kind images.

quite funny, caught a few eps

[Linda]

Can't seem to find any information on what this is about. Is it worth catching?

I just finished Korea's Empress Ki and that was such a wild ride I'm looking for something light and funny.

[woodi]

Very funny.

One of the best in the last decade, if not the best.

[Suet Seung]

I wonder how much these actresses are getting paid. They were quite likeable in their days. I'll have to watch a few episodes to judge.

Rachel Lee is more famously known as Loretta Lee. This series seem like a hook for nostalgic lovers of the 80s-90s tv serials. I'll watch and see how good this can be.

Here's the wiki page I found on the series: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Never_Dance_Alone

If you watched Korean drama Reply 1997 or the spinoff 1994 something? I think this tv series is like that, it features six or seven ladies who were friends twentysomething years ago, but for some reasons they drifted apart and they reunite again as older women who are mothers, housewives or what not and kind of find their purpose in life again. But there's flashbacks and scenes from their youth seen throughout the episodes with the current happening.

I thought the series was pretty good. Talks about life and also saw a lot of actors/actress that are now retired. I think a lot of the ladies aged very well. It also made a mention of when Barbara Yung committed suicide.
