TVB Anniversary Awards 2023 - Red Carpet Review丨萬千星輝頒獎典禮 2023 紅地氈 TVB 回顧

Image
Hello everyone!  We hope you had a chance to read our previous TVB Anniversary Award thoughts in our post before this one. This is our red carpet review this year at the ceremony in the Grand Lisboa Palace Resort in Macau. There were notably less artists attending this year, mostly the top 10 of each award category only. In many cases, the top 10 for Most Improved, Best Supporting and even Best Actor/Actress were the same. All of the artists arrived by car to the main entrance of the hotel, walking into the lobby to sign their name on the board. They were briefly interviewed at the front after signing their name, then walked around the corner to be interviewed further and have red carpet photos taken by many news outlets. We watched the red carpet stream on YouTube and found it distracting that they had the interview audio for certain artists at the back area with the visual on different artists walking into the lobby. Overall, better signage and instructions would have made for a ...

Hello! Hope everyone has been doing well! TVB hosted its Mid-Year Programme Sales Presentation on June 19, 2023 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, where they promoted their 8 upcoming dramas and 12 new variety shows to be released in the next half of the year. We do expect there to be some delays with some of the promoted shows they presented here, and not all of them may be able to be aired this year. Let's take a look at what productions are coming up: Upcoming Dramas: Narcotic Heroes 《 破毒強人 》 Starring: Moses Chan, Nancy Wu, Edwin Siu, Kelly Cheung, Bowie Cheung, Matthew Ho Episodes: 30  Broadcasting Dates: July 31-September 8, 2023 Produced by Marco Law, the cast resembles his Big White Duel II with a different backdrop this time involving crimes and drugs. This is not a new concept to us, TVB produces at least one cop drama a year with drug cases. The funny part of the trailer was when Ram Tsiang says, "Drug King, his days are over right?" because Mo...

Hello Everyone! We are here to give our yearly review of this historical night for TVB's Anniversary Awards. The eventful night took place on January 8th, 2023. Our post is a few days later because we had so many thoughts we wanted to share this time.We told ourselves not to expect too much this year due to certain award choices last year (you can check out our post last year). Certain artists tend to be favoured by the company even if they are not the audience's choice. The awards are listed based on the order they were announced. This year, the awards were open to public voting, where audience could cast up to 3 votes each for every category. How much the votes actually influenced the results is a mystery. The Malaysian audience had their own set of voting as well for the 3 Malaysian awards. We will start off with some of our general thoughts on the night's rundown before we dive into each individual award. Finally, we will take a look at the red carpet looks at the end. ...
