Louis Cheung, Priscilla Wong Join “Come Home Love” Spinoff
After broadcasting for more than three years, TVB sitcom Come Home Love <愛．回家> has received consistent ratings. Although the sitcom is coming to an end, TVB will produce a spinoff series starring Louis Cheung (張繼聰) and Priscilla Wong (黄翠如).
Hoping to retain the success of the original show, the new sitcom is titled Come Home Love 2. It will feature a new story and bring back only some of the original cast members. Come Home Love 2 will see the exit of Lau Dan (劉丹), Lai Lok Yi (黎諾懿), and Kenny Wong (黃德斌). The new supporting cast include Owen Cheung (張振朗), James Ng (吳業坤), Quinn Ho (何君誠), and Katy Kung (龔嘉欣).
While feeling pressured due to the popularity of the Come Home Love brand, Louis and Priscilla expressed their excitement in being able to participate in series. Since they will portray a couple that runs a yoga center, Louis and Priscilla have been practicing yoga in order to prepare for their roles.
Original cast members Griselda Yeung (楊卓娜) and Max Cheung (張達倫) revealed that they have also been invited to take part in the spinoff. Portraying a married couple that owns a law firm, Griselda and Max said that their storyline will make a smooth transition, “The ending [of Come Home Love 1] shows us having a baby. Then in Come Home Love 2, we will continue in our roles and will be friends with Louis’ character.”
Although Florence Kwok (郭少芸) is not participating in the sequel, she revealed that she has already completed filming all her scenes for the sitcom and that she will have a happy ending with Kenny Wong (黃德斌). “The series really is a brand. I am shedding happy tears. I am happy that the spirit of Come Home Love will continue.”

Glad that Richard and Ha Jie will continue but sad that John Ma will not continue. Richard and John has good chemistry. As a family, if the mother is present, hope she does not continue as the tyrannical lady otherwise I am sure I will throw virtual rotten eggs at her. No feelings about Louis & Pricilla, must wait and see how they get into their role.
Are you kidding me? Without Lok Yi I’d say I lost at least 85% interest.. If they’re trying to make a second one, it’s gotta be as good or better than the first one.. >.>
I guess I’ll have to finally watch Come Home Love since they decided to shoot a spin-off sequel wonder how long it will take me to finish it loll
Of course nothing beats the original cast when it comes to sequel, many high expectation if he doesn’t get that it will surely be cut short.
mii88: you are right. somehow, much will be lost without Lok Yi as JM. However, glad my favourite couple is still in and retained. Without the family (don’t go so much for the family scene but enjoy them as a backdrop) and cha li shi – much will also be lost. But then they are going to cut down cost so they cant retain too many old favourites (?). So, glad that my favourite couple is in.
Prefer Brian to Owen …
If Louis and Priscilla film this series, they won’t have much time to film the other dramas which air in the primetime slots.
which would be a pity for Louis especially
