    Yam was awesome in here. He was more of an A hole than evil. I just love it when he gives you that smile and he knows that you think he's an a hole, but Jamie Chik doesn't. Brilliant.

    I just finished watching Triumph in the Skies. Believe it or not, it's the first time I've seen it. I enjoyed it a lot. Not ur typical series where there is a bad guy and good guy. The training scenes were really enjoyable.

    About the DVD set, the picture looked damn good as expected from a newer series. Audio was on par with most of the other stuff. I expected to see a behind the scenes special or something, but didn't happen. Still worth a purchase for any TVB fan.

    Triumph in the Sky is a very good series, loved the cast and the theme song is just right for the show.

    Yeah cast and themesong was great. I'm starting to become a Myolie Wu fan. I haven't really followed any actresses in a while since my teen days. I was in a Jessica Hsuan and Maggie Cheung craze back then. Myolie was very adorable in this series. She's not really that pretty, but she's got this personality that is so likeable. Kinda like Noel Leung.

    Barbara Yung is cutie. Not to stunning, but love her to death. She looked great in New Adventures of Chor Lau Heung. I don't know what it was, but she looked damn good in it. It must have been the pink she wore all the time.

    I so am hoping they put that on DVD soon, the female cast in that was awesome, I wish I could hunt down all the soundtracks to some of these oldies TVB shows.................

    ever heard of TVB's the Return of Luk Siu Fung, that is another great song too..................

    don't suppose you have any of these songs?

    I have so many oldies TVB songs on legit CD, but I don't have Return of Luk Siu Fung. My motto is always wait for the songs to come out. Sooner or later, they will release em. I like collecting music CD's that are good.

    As for Chor Lau Heung on DVD, I'm sure it's coming soon because Taiwan released official DVD version of the original Chor Lau Heung and New Adventures of Chor Lau Heung.

    Yeah I couldn't read chinese until like gr10 highschool which was about 7 years ago. I started reading chinese subtitles when watching TV. When we go sing K, I learn more. Now I can read quite a bit, so it helps when im hunting down movies and CDs. it's all about practice.

    I will grab you some links maybe tomorrow, cause I have to head out.

    If you are looking for any theme songs, you can ask me. I can provide you links so you can buy the albums. I suggest you guys opening a new topic instead of asking here.

    Jenny Tseng, and those songs *were* issued as part of a Jenny Tseng regular pop album at the time.

    If u listen to both, you can tell the difference between the 2. Both of them great singers too.

    No idea. Like Ken said, Run Run Shaw darts the series' down blindfolded. If they are releasing either one of them, it will be To Catch a Thief because Old Time Buddy was already released on VCD.
