@cutie777 Yup another shotgun wedding… My family called those emergency weddings. They marry only for the baby. Sadly in some cases, those always don’t work out.

@tt23 Is Murder Diary good?

@jayne Thanks for all the info Jayne! Yay, we have a lot to look forward to this summer! Hope the dramas will be good.

I love Who's The Murderer and have been watching it since season 1. It's ok that Case Unclosed is greatly inspired by it from the game rules, number of players right up to the first case storyline and that it is budgeted without big ad sponsor. However I do agree with the audiences' feedback about the efforts put in by the players and also question the ability of detective's (Alex Fong) to carry the investigation and discussion. The search of evidence is messy and lack focus, the players' ability seem lacking. It's true that the players do not even recognize that some of the evidence items they themselves pick up are actually their own. When questioned how they could prove their own innocence, one even resort to swearing that he is innocent. In Who's The Murderer, there are two very smart regular players who are able to lead the discussion and a third who is very good in resolving how the murder took place. Another regular player has always been the weakest link in analysing but her strength is in evidence searching. The regular players have good chemistry, they are funny and smart. TVB version is so lacking in many areas that I am unlikely to carry on after the first case. As for ViuTV, tried and gave up after 5 min. It's too serious to my likely.

@dramas4me Exactly and I totally agree with you. But the sad part is that sometimes employees have to swallow their pride just to make a living as they need to feed their families. It is sad they some employers do abuse their employees since they think they are superior to them. Not saying that that is the case here for sure but we just hope that they treat their employees well. Even though it is 2021, some may still that “slavery” mind. I actually knew of an international student who was studying in the US and took up a part time job as a server at a Vietnamese restaurant and they made her work 12 hours for only $50. That is slavery right there but luckily she quit fast since it was not worth it working so much for just do little. I bet it happens more often than we know it.

Meh this is a very old idea....AustralianTV had a similar format called Cluedo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluedo_(Australian_game_show) This perhaps also is piggy backing off popular games like Among Us. I don't think TVB/even Mainland Chinese writers have that depth or experience in writing shorter play like detective dramas.

I was going to watch for Pakho but I guess I will pass. Speaking of crime shows, we need a post about murder diary! First episode came out today.

I one time had to film on air for a charity event and it's perfectly normal for someone to do your hair and make up and for another person to recite and hold the script for you. If there is a 3rd person, they do things like iron your clothes or bring you lunch. Different assistants have different tasks. And filming is back to back. These same 3 assistants are going to go to another artist and help them after they are done with Yang Mi. It's like an assembly line.

For a ring that expensive why would you wrap with a tissue paper? Could have put them inside the jewelry box or a safe box. They probably fired the worker already since the day the ring got flushed. Laurinda probably used her late father money to buy her mom the ring where else she can get those money? For that much money just for one ring I could get a brand new car or get a house such a waste.

The husband looks a bit like Alec Su or Peter Ho from the picture above.

Another gun shot?

@hohliu I agree and marrying that fast is a recipe for disaster. Yup, they are airing dirty laundry to call each other out and gain sympathy. I find that sad..

@m0m0 You mean her husband? Not sure about that… it is stupid to do all this just for attention. Is attention worth that much? Not really… Some are just blaming him but it takes 2 to tango… Barbie is not an angel either… I am shocked that he was able to put up with her for so long…This couple only married in a moment of passion but once their honey moon period ended, the true colors all emerged…

1. She's probably paying them a lot for being her assistants. 2. If they feel they're truly being mistreated, they can just.... yanno.... quit?? I don't think Yang Mi made them sign their life away. 3. Assuming that Yang Mi is paying them a lot, if it was me, I would want to get my money's worth. I'm not gonna pay my assistants a lot only for them to just stand around and follow me around.

No wonder Inez hasn't streamed live for a while. Used to chat with Inez about Toronto back in the day.

Whatever the treatment Yang Mi is accused of is probably down to culture. That if you are richer you expect the ones hired under you to literally serve you like you a second class citizen. I dont blame Yang Mi, I blame the outdated culture.

This has to be one of the dumbest reason given for a divorce, ever. This is some serious American level stupidity. Divorce for political view... in fear of children getting shunned lmao. And the solution to avoid it is to get divorce, oh my god.

It should’ve ended with season 2 in my opinion but I still watch it lol. The kids however are annoying.
