All the 3 dramas are the good dramas so far for this year. Too bad Legal Mavericks is aired on weekends with only two episodes aired per week. The story is engaging and many viewers who can’t wait for the slow broadcast on tv will surely watch it online, therefore the rating points suffer.
I really like Nina Paw in The Unholy Alliances…what a solid acting. In fact i enjoy watching her scenes more than Ruco and Nancy bickering scenes in the series.
@diana80 Want to know why you enjoy watching her scenes more? Because she doesn’t appear in almost every second drama that airs. TVB has good actors and actresses but they keep pushing them into so many series that it’s just tiring to watch. I like Nancy Wu and Kristal Tin a lot but now whenever I start watching a new show, I am like “wait, why is she in this one too”.
@chestnut watching nancy wu is MANY times better than watching grace chan.
i like jimmy au…he’s asian version of James bond.
