... is where Sunny Wong writes about nothing in particular and everything in general.

Bao Lian Deng

Cover photo of Bao Lian Deng Since April 17, Channel 8 had been broadcasting 宝莲灯 on weekdays at 7PM. Unfortunately, due to some misunderstandings (of the show) when my dad introduced it to me, I didn’t pay any attention to it till the last few episodes. And now I regret deeply.

First, most of the actresses in the show (yea, call me shallow) are very pretty, especially XiaoYu (your mileage may vary ;)). I was taken aback when I saw her name in the credits the first time I watched the show as I totally dig her in some other shows — and how could I have missed this show?

Second, can there be a better plot for the month of Mother’s Day? Seriously?

And third, I just love to see this somewhat full story since the Jimmy Lin’s version I watched a few years back was rather toned down and had several characters removed.

Besides, the last 6 episodes (that I’ve watched) were rather exciting albeit being a little (just a little) draggy, with the last two episodes having a great twist. Here’s a snippet of what was being said of a friend and I describing the twist:

<@juLified> i was thinking how come er lang shen got so evil de meh
<@juLified> haha
<@draco> lol
<@draco> its the biggest cover-up in chinese god history

Now I have to either buy it, or obtain it through other means (rubs chin gleefully). Wish me good luck.

this show is a total mess up. Er lang shen is evil,Wang Mu Niang NIang is Evil, the heaven emperor is evil(and blur) and Sun Wu Kong got defeated and almost die????

The real story of Chen Xiang is not like this….they mess the whole plot up to make it interesting and unexpected.

And last but not least…..Zhu Ba Jie got braids???!

Er I didn’t watch the full show but Sun WuKong got defeated by the Lotus Lantern. Er Lang Shen is evil for the sake of the twist. Ya the Jade Emperor is blur and is like led by the nose.

But all in one I think it’s to give the show some refreshing feelings. Bad points vs pretty girls, the latter wins! hahahaa.

Oh about the braids, I was stunned too. I thought how come Zhu Ba Jie become a girl at first. roflol. But still, the show quite nice!
