Best Actor and Actress go to A Fist Within Four Walls OTP: Ruco Chan and Nancy Wu! I’m happy for both! Especially Ruco since he’s been in the rounds for a few years already and the veterans always snatched it in the year (rightfully but still sad for my heart!). I love how Nancy thanks them in their character’s nicknames. =D
A Fist Within Four Walls also won Best Drama of the Year.
Every time they hug, the crowd goes crazy. Much beloved pair.
I’m always wary when actresses wear deep V-dresses cause I find myself wondering how is it standing/holding up?
They also won Best Themesong!

Yay!! I’m so happy for Ruco, he’s been deserving this top honor award for a few years already! Also, he and Nancy should just date (or announce that they are) already! They’re so cute!

I wonder how long they are going to keep milking the two couples…
And it’s really sad to see TVB’s fall from grace. I mean, look at the positions of the 花旦 小生:
Roger Kwok > Wayne Lai > Moses Chan > Kenneth Ma > Ruco Chan > Louis Cheung > Edwin Siu > Vincent Wong > Ben Wong
Kristal Tin > Nancy Wu > Mandy Wong > Natalie Tong > Tracy Chu > Selena Li > Priscilla Wong > Grace Chan > Alice Chan
A far cry from what it used to be. The male leads now are mostly older than the ones who left (Raymond Lam, Samuel Chan, Bosco Wong, Ron Ng). It’s funny how they are doing this “transition” from old to older lol. The up and coming female leads are young but absolutely suck at acting. The ones who are good were left on the backseat for way too long (like how Nancy Wu’s only started to shine in recent years but she’s 35 already). This has been TVB’s largest problem since forever. Because their previous fadans had so much “longevity”, the 79/80-ers fadans only started getting meaty lead roles in their late/early 30s (other than Michelle Ye and Linda Chung). They are trying to change now, but by spending resources backing people who have zero audience affinity like Grace Chan and Sisley Choi instead. It’s no wonder really that their ratings are dropping. Probably also because of the quality (or its lackof) of their dramas.
I only watched Speed of Life, Short End of the Stick (not completed) and House of Spirits (not completed as well). It’s been a pretty bad year. Planning to watch Dead Wrong too.

You nailed it! I’m really getting sick of Nanco.
I grew up watching TVB, but have switched to Mainland dramas in the past couple years. The glory days of TVB are over…

Me too. So sad. TVB or HK dramas used to be such a powerhouse during the 90s. I grew up watching with my mom and grandmas. But even now, they switched over to Mainland dramas and Kdramas.
@kitai Sisley Choi and Grace Choi are pretty but are so bad at acting. I also wish they gave male counterparts that are similar to the age range. I don’t mind 3 to 5 years older but 10 or 20 years are stretching it for me.

TVB has an endless supply of young actresses from the Miss HK line, but most of the actors are singers-turned-actors or ex-ATV actors who are quite old already. I can’t think of any promising actor in the 85+ range (i.e. younger than 30). *sigh*

They need to put these pretty ladies and gentlemen in acting classes before letting them grace the screen! Like how it used to be in the golden era!
It’s unfortunate that Nancy was only promoted when most of the fadans moved to Mainland China. Sigh, a big waste!
Really love the trio of eunuchs in Wayne, Raymond Cho, and Power Chan. They should’ve won the Best Partnership award!

TVB is risk-averse when it comes to casting. That’s why the big fadans were able to hog the screen for so long. I mean, they used to act in 3-5 dramas a year! They are taking risks now by promoting the younger ones like Grace Chan and Sisley Choi but I agree that they should really be put in acting classes. It makes a difference especially since they are not naturally talented. Or they can make them act in a couple more supporting roles! Natalie Tong’s only got one real lead role while people like GC and SC are getting lead roles left and right…

Yay for Ruco and Nancy. I wish TVB had given her more chances earlier. didnt realise she hit mid 30s until kitai mentioned in her post.
Truth is ive lost the urge to wach HK dramas- the feel and pull is lacking. This coming from me and my mum who are TV drama addicts and watched evythg from tvb decades ago. I still remember all the tears we shed over Kindred spirit

I think it’s sad that in order for Nancy to be promoted or any talented underrated actors/actresses to be promoted, the popular one they’ve been using either leave to Mainland. It shows a lot of management.
Same :c HK dramas used to be what my family watched but we all switched over to kdramas/mainland ones. The productions just feel really cheap compared to mainland especially now technology plays such a part. Not to mention, they used the same faces over and over again. :/

The last time I watched a TVB series from start to finish was 5 years ago lol…a lot of the currently promoted siusangs and fadans are not up to scratch with their acting and/or I just find them unlikable onscreen.
I did check out some of Dead Wrong when my mum was watching it, decent storyline and Roger’s acting is great as always ^^
