Miss my Drama Serial!

Argh!!!!!
going back to KL tomorrow morning, so will be missing the last 2 episodes of the "Chu Han Jia Shiong" on Channel U :(

Most irritating thing is the HK shows are not made available on MOBTV, so I can't catch up on the show there either. Hopefully can find it on the web, else have to buy the vcds when I've already watched nearly the entire show.

But really loved the commentary at the beginning of each episode, where one of the actors will explain some chinese proverb in relation to the drama serial. Then during that episode (or sometimes the next one) the story involving the proverb would be acted out.
Really helped me to remember those chinese proverbs much better than just reading it of the books or listening to my hubby!

The joke is, initally when I knew the show was to be aired, I was disappointed cos I thought it'll be another one of those made-in-China factual-but-slow drama serials that my hubby loved but I can't usually finish.
Am I glad for this overly dramatic HK version! At least now I can finally remember the basic history for that era (& finally gotten the 2 main characters' situations correct!), so if my hubby starts on some Chinese version, I'll be able to follow properly this time. :)

Hmmm, maybe a good idea to get the vcds after all.............can re-watch it with hubby, and maybe pick up some Cantonese at the same time?! ;P
