Moonlight Resonance is everywhere.
“Identity”, “Jade Solid Gold”, “Scoop” are all full of the Gam family. The promotion is followed by promotions. Even the Big Brother in the entertainment industry Eason Chan has become a backing vocal to Michelle Yim in singing the Karaoke song “Thinking of each other in the windy rain”. Have this been seen before?
Aired on 7 days during a week is also a rare arrangement.
The drama series which was very popular in the previous period is “Jewel in the Palace”. The ending achievement had been surprising. The last episode’s peak rating has broken the record and was over 50 points. This time, the same arrangement is probably to repeat history! However, Moonlight Resonance has achieved a small peak in every 2 episodes. Within 30 episodes, how they were quarreling, how they were hurting people, how the family was ruined, how the family was reunited, how each of the character cried, have been a routine in the audiences’ eyes. Therefore, it will be difficult for the last episode to have any new creativity. As predicted, the fact that Hung Yee became more evil, Goon Ga Jai became more persistent in love are as predicted, Ah Kar and Ah Ho fortunately won her, the energetic grandmother Lee Heung Kam passed away could still attract audiences. However, to break the 50 points peak would be really difficult. If it achieved above 45 points, “Moonlight Resonance” is already considered to have a successful ending.
The third sequel must be coming. It has ratings, has topic, has support, why would TVB cut short its own profiting chance? If it’s quick, it will be seen in next year’s anniversary. The same casts acting in ancient costumes, they will remain to be a big family, there will similarly be quarrels, audiences will definitely buy it.
However, to continue the power of Moonlight Resonance, it will definitely take majority of the awards in the anniversary. Media has already started to speculate who is going to be this year TV King and TV Queen?
Raymond Lam (The chance of becoming TV King: *****)
It has been definite since the beginning of this year?
Goon Ga Jai’s importance is greater than the other male characters. Moreover, “The Four” will be coming out. Raymond Lam’s popularity will continue. His chance of becoming TV King is already almost absolute.
However in Moonlight Resonance, his performance has only received satisfactory review. If we talk about surprise, it can’t be compared to Alfred in the first series. As the character is too perfect, the potential to show off becomes restricted. His triangle relationship with Linda Chung and Bosco Wong is also too long-winded, each episode their progress will go in circle, the persistency and loyalty in love is really making people feel tired and not feeling touched. However, when we talk about status, it is time for him to become TV King. At least he will be more deserving than the previous year’s Kevin Cheng, right?
Ha Yu (The chance of becoming TV King: ****)
If he won it, it will be a kind of recompensation.
Last year he didn’t get anything is too much. Old man would feel disappointed. Fortunately, it doesn’t affect his acting. Joe Bao’s character is more difficult to grasp than Bao Bao. Ha Yu had secured it steadily. He has given his full performance regardless whether it is laughing scene or crying scene. If we talk about capability, he has power to win! If his performance within two years are added up, he is even more deserving of the award.
Moses Chan (The chance of becoming TV King: ***)
Double-winning TV King to win continuous jackpot?
He maybe seen to be unpopular choice. However, TVB awards like to give earth-breaking surprises. Therefore, Moses’ chance can’t be overlooked, especially since Ah Kar has more “noise” than Dak Dak Dei, acting as a person of a rather different type yet still has to be fitting in with the whole family. The audiences like his special comedic feel. This breakthrough is deserving of award. Only that, will continuous TV King be an over-reward? If Moonlight Resonance is not wanted to be the only big winner, another unpopular choice is Roger Kwok from “D.I.E”. Don’t forget that he was able to clear Sonija Kwok’s record. Among TVB actors, who can do that?
Lee Sze Kei (The chance of becoming TV Queen: ****)
The audiences will definitely accept if the award is given to her. However, the opportunity to promote a person will be lost. Besides, there is a lack of surprise. It’s a rare chance that Lee Sze Kei opened her golden mouth and expressed that she doesn’t want to fight with the young generation. Does she hint that she has undergroundly quit the competition?
Tavia Yeung (The chance of becoming TV Queen: ****)
Really remarkable! Although her screentime is obviously not much, she still manages to stand out and becomes the netizens’ choice of the new TV Queen!
Regardless of being strong or crying, this “Get” Girl succeed to leave a deep impression on the audiences. Facing the veterans, meeting the strong and becoming stronger, her performance obviously won over the first series. If she was given the honour of TV Queen, and receive recognition, she will definitely become the focus among the TVB leading ladies. TVB likes to promote people, why not promote her?
Susanna Kwan (The chance of becoming TV Queen: ***)
She is my personal choice. Her acting is needless to say, her limelight concealed Hor Ma, scolding people like singing, and fighting alone. However, she is not very competitive, whether or not the award is given to her will not make any hot topic. Therefore, her chance is less.
Michelle Yim (The chance of becoming TV Queen: ***)
Can villain win the main award? I think the chance will not be big. After all her age is rather old. If TVB promotes her, why not fiercely promote Fala Chen to be the youngest TV Queen, becoming a household name by being mute, won’t it be a bigger topic?
