Dramaroll: "Off Pedder" ep 220-222

Finally, the love-triangle between 殷賞, 大哥 and 余家昇 has been looked at squarely in the face. Despite the anticlimactic wrap-up, it was nice to see the tensions come to light.

It's interesting how the most intriguing characters are these three middle-aged veterans. The younger characters, for which I am presumably the target market, are never as captivating to watch.

TVB is running a competition for the most creative ending to 賞賞's romance story. Pity only HK citizens can enter. Then again, it's not like I have the time or the Chinese writing skills to pull together a viable entry.

I think I'll just read (and rate) the entries instead.

And who do I want to get the girl? 余家昇 without a doubt. 大哥's devotion is touching, but 余家昇 is definitely the guy with more character. His chemistry with 賞賞 oozes off the screen, and it's clear that 賞賞 feels for him.

I can't see how TVB can justify pairing up 賞賞 and 大哥, so it seems 賞賞x余家昇 are safely in the bag. Unless, of course, TVB gives the victory to a random guy who has popped out of the blue, in the name of "preserving friendship". That would be a horrid trick to pull.
