The only series last year I didn't watch are Swipe Tap Love, Lady Sour and Return of the Silver Tongue because I am not that fond of comedy and also because Priscilla is there whom I don't really think she can act well at least not as a leading actress. <br /><br />I personally love Outbound Love, Tomorrow is Another Day, Black Heart White Soul, Never Dance Alone and Storm in a Cocoon. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725313381170657513.post-24707002321844283282014-12-30T17:33:13.037-05:002014-12-30T17:33:13.037-05:00I kinda regret sitting through some of them - thos...I kinda regret sitting through some of them - those in the Waste of Time category - but the bad thing about me is I have to finish what I started. Probably should change that habit... I wanted to do a Year in Review on my HKTV blog, but there's only like 3 series, so hopefully next year I can do one. miriamfanzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15870901589298597679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725313381170657513.post-34333907179363407102014-12-30T17:26:02.792-05:002014-12-30T17:26:02.792-05:00Thanks :) Glad to see you're back.

Those two (and some of the earlier series) actually made me have hope in TVB, but their series in the second half were mostly disappointing.miriamfanzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15870901589298597679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725313381170657513.post-47191425496272997102014-12-30T15:42:54.163-05:002014-12-30T15:42:54.163-05:00Nice recap, miriamfanz!

For me, almost all of the series would go under the “skimmed” section because I couldn’t bear to sit through most of them through to completion. The only series this year that I watched from beginning to end (every episode) and actually paid close attention (meaning that I wasn’t doing my usual multi-tasking while I watched and I actually was interested enough to spend time reading the episode summaries) was Storm in a Cocoon. Everything else – well, let’s just say the episodes I did watch, even without paying much attention, were a waste of time in my opinion….<br /><br />[On a side note, I will say that HKTV’s 3 series that they’ve aired since launching pretty much blow all of TVB’s series this year out of the water – even my mom (who is TVB’s typical “see-lai” audience and one of the few people I know who actually watches every single one of TVB’s series, good or bad) has become an HKTV fan….the first thing she asks me every day when I get home from work is whether HKTV uploaded the latest episode of their series to their website yet…LOL. She still watches TVB too, but it has become more of a “hobby” than anything else].llwy12https://www.blogger.com/profile/02401832364832078932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725313381170657513.post-17893240982811597602014-12-30T12:23:57.833-05:002014-12-30T12:23:57.833-05:00Like your post miriamfanz, especially the way you ...Like your post miriamfanz, especially the way you divided them up. :) Haven't been following other TVB blogs for a while and now that I am again, it's sad to see most of them have been abandoned. With that said, I'm glad to see you're still around and love your posts and different features!Irishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03761963266985932287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725313381170657513.post-57507633921948620532014-12-30T04:21:04.171-05:002014-12-30T04:21:04.171-05:00I'm with you on Never Dance Alone.
