Annie Chen hunted by Damian Lau in Nie Xiao Qian

Annie, what did you do in the previous lives that you have the big boys hunting you relentlessly dear? She has veterans Christopher Lee and Damian Lau stalking her from the ancient times to the modern period. If you find the name Nie Xiao Qian familiar, it’s because we have seen many, many beautiful actresses – Joey Wong, Barbie Hsu, and Liu Yi Fei – in the role of a beautiful female ghost trapped in her pitiful form and forced to lure in men for the demon in charged. In this twist of a story, our female ghost is locked in a special entrapment and is released by our ER doctor (Mo Tzu Yi) in the 21st century. She eyes him up and down, and insists he’s her ancient lover, Ning Cai Chen.

You guys should have seen my face when Yi Fen complains about not hearing from the jobs she applied to just a few days ago. Gurl, this missy’s been waiting for months! And unlike you, this missy does not know a handsome manager to get her a job! Oy, the pains of reality.

SETTV’s latest offering on Fridays gives us Aim High, (another) story following (another) group of friends as they live, dream, and struggle in today’s brutal working society. You sense my skeptical attitude yet? At the end of the hour, I liked what I saw in these kids adults. The name brings me back to my own high school moments, how we gathered around the teacher’s desk and guessed who scored the highest on the weekly calculus test (such nerds we were!), and one of my friends would say, “Aim high, so when you fall, you fall within your true range.” The response he always got was, “Shut up!”

Love Cheque Charge: Episode 1 “Potentials but…”

Where’s the line, Georgie? I gotta be first to get that guarantee!!

Now that I’m free from The Way We Were, I decided to check out a newly premiere SETTV’s drama, Love Cheque Charge, featuring baby Georgie and Phoebe Yuan, an actress who has an uncanny resemblance to his previous co-star, Annie. Then I belated realized it’s a freakin’ daily drama! For a whopping 70 episodes…. I am not happy with this arrangement. Georgie, I don’t do dailies! You know that! Can’t you be more a little more considerate and star in a normal 15-episode drama? With Gui Gui? (I had to throw that in there, drifters.)

First episode is decent.
