The Second Batch
Charmaine Sheh: I am full of praises for this girl. I practically grew up watching her and I never forgot her face. I was five when I watched Return Of The Cuckoo and I still remember the rough story becuase her chemistry with Julian Cheng was wonderful. I loved her when I first saw her. Her enter to stardom was very good and following that, I remembered she guest-starred in Love is Beautiful in like five seconds and then came Country Spirit. I've watched that show at least six times because it re-shows alot and it happens that when it does, I'm free to watch. It was a great show because I loved Jordan Chan. She has very good chemistry with most of her co-stars. Following that was Seven Sisters and she and Gallen were great and her character was so cute. I remember that when I was watching that show, I kept bugging my mum to tie to mini pigtails like her. After those few shows she was a favourite with Perish In The Name Of Love but Sonija was prettier so my attention went to her and then came Point Of No Return with Julian and again their chemistry rocked. After that was Angels Of Mission with Sonija and that show was so cool but it felt like Sonija was lead and then I watched War And Beauty but I preferred Gigi and Sheren and then came Strike At Heart but she was in the shawdoes of Nadia Chan who captured me with her beauty. Well, I'm a Singaporean so obviously I watched Yummy Yummy but Michelle Chia was better. My craze for her was in 2005 with Lethal Weapons Of Love And Passion though I must admit I liked Sonija better and in Dance Of Passion, Gigi was more outstanding but after that I think she led all and made reat impressions. She had great chemistry with Roger and so pretty after she became a star. I thought she and Raymond had stellar chemistry in The Drive Of Life but Jessica and Sheren fared better though her fashion taste was better. She showed me she ccould do comedy with World Twisters Adventure. Subsequently, I watched Forensic Heroes and When Easterly Showers Fall On The Sunny West and once again splendid job and her cop character was very likeable. I believe I will start to like her even more in 2009 as she has a comedy with Dayo which is quality approved 100% and Beyond The Realm Of Conscience. Recently it was said Heaven And Earth was cancelled but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. She is only leading the batch because Gigi left.
Sonija Kwok: This girl is one of the prettiest women I have ever seen, just behind Gigi my all-time favourite. I must admit though that I remembered her more clearly than Charmaine. She first entered in 2001 with A Step Into The Past which took my breath away with her ancient beauty. Following that, she got me stunned in Where The Legend Begins although she was the villan. You know as a kid, you tend to hate the bad characters but I really loved her and remembered her all the time and this applied for Perish In The Name Of Love. She began to rise with Angels Of Mission as the cool collected madam and Hidden Treasures with Bobby. She also led The Last Breakthrough but I didn't like her short hair and after Lethal Weapons Of Love And Passion, she disappeared for a while and returned with the beautiful role in Land Of Wealth. I loved the show so much because I missed her. Afte that, I watched all her shows, with On The First Beat and I loved her chemistry with Roger Kowk in DIE and it boosted her popularity which makes me so happy! I thought she and Wayne were pretty cute in Pages Of Treasures and she was the lead so she rocked but now it seems that tvb is promoting her again. Once again beautifully stunning in The Greatness Of A Hero but her hair was too big so it was a little weird but still, I loved her from the minute I saw her and until now, she is still one of my favourites. She has DIE again so I hope it'll boost her popularity again!
Gigi Lai: The Goddess Of Beauty is not an overstatement. I think she is gorgeous and youthful and sweet even at the age of 38! The funny thing is that she entered tvb even after Charmaine but rose very quickly. She should've been the first batch but she was from the movie industry so she is the second batch. I first noticed her in Fate Twisters but she really caught me in Riches And Stiches because she was gorgeous. At that time, I was a fan of Anne Heung but Gigi really stunned me. I remembered her face from then on. I then really fell in love with her in War And Beauty and convinced that she was beautiful and sweet. The funny thing is Charmaine entered earlier and she won Best Actress in 2006 whilst Gigi won the award after just two years in tvb which is very rare. She rose very quickly ever since War And Beauty. She had great chemistry with Julian Cheng but her short and red hair was ugly. I didn't really concentrate on her in Healing Hands 3 as Bernice and Moses caught my eyes better. I loved her in Charm Beneath and really pitied her character as she got cheated on but once again, the short hair though better but I prefer her with her hair long. She was brilliant in Dance Of Passion and I thought her chemistry with Bowie was better than ever because she really loved him and her costumes were gorgeous while her characer was much more different as compared to her usual roles because she played the smart and tough women behind Bowie. After that, it was smooth sailing for her as although her series Life Art didn't do well but just to let you know, I enjoyed it all the same with her sweet and perfect chemistry with Kevin Cheng but is she a left hander? She looks like a right hander. I finally got to see the chemistry between Moses and Gigi and they were so cute. She was a nerdy and ugly girl who never got the beautiful transformation like other girls in other series and her crying had improved as well as her acting as she played the comedic role of Jing Jing very well. Following that was her last role with The Gem Of Life and I was so disappointed and sad because it came as such a shock. Her role was great because she was simply gorgeous. Its like that was the prettiest I've ever seen her and I still pray she'll come back some day because she is a talented actress. The reason why I loved her so much was because she has no rumours and she loves her family so much. She deserves the happiness and I wish her a happy life.
Yoyo Mung: You know how I said I was a fan of Gallen and it was mainly because I watched alot of his shows. Well, I never really chose and it just happened to be him so I liked Flora and Kenix and Jessica because of him so this was the same with Yoyo. I first saw her in Healing Hands 2 and she had a very good start for a beginner since she was the lead so she captured me. She's not beautiful according to my mum and friends and I've come to realise that but maybe its her acting or her cold exterior that makes me attracted to her. I'm not sure but she can act and that's one thing. She became a favourite of mine in The 'W' Files and she never faded away from my memory because she was gorgeous as the cold, calm and collected Bai Su and it was Gallen she was acting alongside with since he has great chemistry with all his co-stars. She really stuck in my head. After that, I watched her in Spilt Second and though I didn't really like her story with Akex, I thought Claire Yiu was prettier and she and Patrick Tam had better chemistry but I must say that when she delivered the hallucinating scenes, she was impressive. Until now I stil don't get the plot and I've watched it twice! And then, after that if I'm not wrong I started to really watch tvb shows and less of cartoons. I actually watched all her shows following that. I watched The Charm Beneath and if you want to see an attractive Yoyo, don't watch that show because the wig was ugly though her character was really good and I liked how selfless she was for the sake of Moses but apparently, Sharon showed most improvement. She was pretty with long hair in Forensic Heroes and because of that, my sister became a huge fan of hers and she was ok in terms of acting but homestly, there wasn't much concentration on her and it was more on Bobby and Frankie. I watched At Home With Love and I loved her sweet chemistry with Lawrence which had improved since Healing Hands 2. After that was the phenomenal Heart Of Greed which I was by the way shocked that Linda was leading over Yoyo since Yoyo is like 10 knotches above of Linda. I thought tvb was blind and the same goes for Tavia. I mean they were in the industry way before Yoyo and its not like say they're lousy and they're way better than her. Personally, that may be one of the reasons I hate Linda Chung but no offense to all Linda fans. Yoyo was great as a thrid party because her character was much stronger and maybe something was wrong with me but I thought Yoyo woyld end up with Moses because they were quarrelling all the time but no such luck! Then she came back as lead with funny man Bobby AuYeung in Fathers and Sons which was so funny but she really became top on my list again in The Ultimate Crime Fighter though she wasn't the lead and Gigi pulled off better acting than she did but Yoyo was still stellar once more with the cool cop. Her hair was so ugly in Forensic Heroes and her role was small too because she left for a while but I still enjoyed her in that show though. She finally however gained the recognition with The Last One Standing but still I thought she looked better with Roger than Kevin and yes the show was great but she wasn't given alot of screentime although she was the only famous girl in that show. Her new show with Roger, Cordial Heroes is coming up so I hope it'll be good since its said to be a Truimph In The Skies 2.To Be Continued...
Flora Chan: She was this pretty, sophiticated actresses that I thought looked like a European. It wasn't until many years later than did I realise she was raised there. Accurately, the first show I saw her on was on Healing Hands. But maybe I was too young for I couldn't remember anyone but Bowie Lam and Lawrence Ng. She really caught my eye in At The Threshold Of An Era. It was one of those faces I would never forget because maybe it was a conincidence but I happened to watch many of her shows. Following that was A Taste Of Love and she became a favourite immediately after Family Man but when Truimph In The Skies debuted, she was at the top of my list because I loved that show. Sad to say that after on of her best performances in To Get Unstuck In Time, she left and I have yet to hear from her since but rumour has it that she'll return with Bobby Auyeung and Selena Li.
Kenix Kwok: She is a beauty in whatever era and she never ages. I mean, the first time I saw her was in the show was At The Threshold Of An Era and I believed that she was already a beautiful women. My mum really liked her alot. Anyway, I loved the chemistry between Gallen and her so I went on to watch Take My Word For It, or at least my mum chose to so I followed and she was great as the cool officer. She and Bobby had killer chemistry and their story was really sad though but she still really caught my eye. Just to let you know, I had a pretty big stop in 2004 to 2006 but I still continued to watch, just not that much I remember that I loved her role in Seed Of Hope and it made me cry so badly I never forgot her after that. Following that was the grand production, Revolving Doors Of Vengeance and let me tell you, she was gorgeous but I heard that she gained great popularity for Shine On Me and Love Bond which I didn't watch and yet I want to. I caught bits and part of A Pillowcase Of Mystery but it was Ten Brothers that got me addicted to her and sadly, that was her last show. But, now, she is back for Born Rich which just wrapped up filming. 
Jessica Hsuan: The first show I watched with her was Old Time Buddy and I thought she had great comedic skills but sadly, her face didn't last long in my head. Following that, I watched A Step Into The Past and yes, she was pretty but I preferred Sonija so I failed to concentrate on her though I could roughly recall her face. It wasn't until Golden Faith did I become a fan. I loved her chemistry with Gallen and it was a great show so she stuck in my head. Following that was Square Pegs and I would never fail to remeber her participation in the show mainly because I could never forget Roger Kwok and they had chemistry. I went on to A Handful Of Love but failed to love it that much though it was a good show and yet, if not for her, I would never have seen Selena on screen. Jessica continued to stun me with her solid performances in Life Made Simple and I loved her character in Dicey Business as the addicted gambler but she really left me shocked with her sweet and mild character in The Drive Of Life and her hairstyle was so much prettier in the second half with short hair. She never really left tvb and is now filming Pearl On Palm.
Ada Choi: I first watched her in Healing Hands but the impression was not strong and even in part 2, I was concentrating on Yoyo Mung. I payed attention to her in At The Threshold Of An Era because she really could act and had stellar chemistry with Louis Koo. When did I fall in love with her? It was when I watched Where The Legend Begins. She was the most beautiful women I had ever seen and it helped that Sonija was in it because she was pretty too. She had great chemistry with Steven Ma and I kept rewatching it so I could never forget her face. Aterwards, I watched Fate Twisters but in honest fact, Gigi caught my eye better though I must admit she and Lawrence made a great couple. She then proved that not only could she be serious, she could also be funny with her role in To Catch The Uncatchable. I still love Dayo Wong! Afterwards, I watched Dance Of Passion and still I preferred Gigi but she really made an impact with the show and last year when I rewatched The Gem Of Life, I loved her and though she isn't as pretty as Gigi but her acting was brilliant. She has also finished filming Superwoman! 
I'm sure many of you are not surprised since they collaborated in the same show so it was either him or Kenneth. Now, I know that Kenneth is known for his good guy image but something about him looks more like a big man that needs to be in control and ron the more down-to-earth kind. I know that according to the media, it is a complete opposite, but this is what I deduce from looking at them and besides, a jerk in real life can play the good guy right? Jim is a 100% believer in his wife. He stands by her and stands up for her. He is the one thing Melinda knows is for real and the one person who loves her no matter what. He believes in whatever she tells him to which is why I think ron can fit this character for he looks like the loving husband. He is the one thing for Melinda to fall back on and ghost or human, he will pulverise them should they do anything to hurt his wife and considering their good chemistry, this is why I chose Ron.
