Want to watch some classic and funny TVB dramas, any recommendations?

As a pure 24k Cantonese, apart from Stephen Chow, TVB is probably the only one who can handle my childhood comedies.

"Journey to the West"

The TVB version of Journey to the West is definitely the No. 1 comedy in my childhood. Zhang Weijian's performance style of Sun Wukong, whether it is the tone of speaking or its Every move has a very strong personal style. Perhaps unlike many friends in China, the Monkey King in my childhood was not played by a six-year-old boy, but by the version played by Weijian Zhang. When I was in elementary school, there was a trend of imitating the speech of Weijian Zhang’s version of Monkey King. .

This Journey to the West has made a lot of magical changes to the original Journey to the West, but the general plot still adheres to the original work of Journey to the West (I will excerpt it from Baidu here, because the plot of Journey to the West is exhausted. Everyone knows it. There’s nothing to say.) There was a fairy stone on Huaguo Mountain. One day, it suddenly exploded and a spiritual monkey emerged. He became a disciple of the Patriarch Bodhi and was named Sun Wukong (played by Zhang Weijian). Wukong was agile and successfully practiced the art of immortality and seventy-two transformations in Sanxing Temple. However, he got into great trouble due to drunkenness and was suppressed. At the foot of Wuzhi Mountain. Five hundred years later, Wukong was ordered by Guanyin (played by Gong Ci'en) to follow Xuanzang (played by Jiang Hua) of the Tang Dynasty to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures, become his disciple, and achieve enlightenment before he could atone for his sins. Wukong then followed Tang Sanzang on the road. There were many difficulties along the way. He, Zhu Bajie (played by Li Yaoxiang) and Sha Wujing (played by Mai Changqing) worked together to defeat demons and demons, and embarked on an arduous journey to learn from the scriptures.

Although the general trend is the same, a lot of local themes have been added to it, and it has also touched on many social phenomena. Although this drama was set in 1996, these hints have not been released. Even today, it is by no means out of date, such as the beauty-loving and skinny White Bone Demon

Of course, there are also ridicules of other animations at the time, such as Zhu Bajie’s ridicule of Superman

There are many similar jokes in it There are too many to list, and it is definitely an indispensable part of our TVB comedies.

"The Nine-Five Supreme"

The Nine-Five Supreme is definitely one of the originators of time-travel dramas. It is different from many current dramas that travel back to ancient times. It tells the story of Emperor Yongzheng's time-travel to A series of interesting things happened in modern times, and the conflict creation and suspense of this drama are very well done, without giving people the feeling that they are deliberately added for the sake of the plot. In my personal impression, there are very few dramas in which the emperor travels from ancient times to modern times. They all travel back in time to become a noble concubine, travel back in time and become a high official, etc. It’s boring to watch too many of them.

The plot roughly tells the story of Yong Zheng being chased by Lu Siniang, an assassin who rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, and accidentally traveled to modern society. By chance, Yong Zheng replaced Li Daxia, who had just arrived in Hong Kong, while Lu Siniang joined the martial arts team because of her skill and obtained an identity document. Yongzheng found that he could not return to ancient times, so he planned to settle down in modern times and become a modern person. Lu Siniang also accepted the fact that she could not go back to the past during her fight with Yongzheng, and also discovered that Yongzheng was not as sinister and sinister as popular rumors, and he did not recognize his relatives. After many conflicts, they decided to quit Vanity Fair and start a new life. (Excerpted from Baidu Encyclopedia)

There are many very funny dialogues and lines in this drama, and even some of the jokes are very funny today 20 years later. This drama is a follow-up production of "Looking for Qin", but its skills can be said to be even better. In its first episode, it took less than 30 minutes to complete the ancient story and travel to modern times. The laughter inside is very "deliberate" but very natural. The emperor and the female assassin who assassinated him were contradictory existences in themselves. When they met, it had the effect of sparks hitting the earth. The different identities and ways of doing things between the two people also brought a lot of laughter. In short, this is a time-travel comedy full of laughter. If you like it, don’t miss it.

"My Sassy Grandma"

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is always a major point of family conflict. As the troublemaker, TVB will certainly not miss this subject.

As a Taiwanese celebration drama of the year, its cast is also very strong. Needless to say, Bosco Bosco and Myolie Wu, even "Sister Wang" Wang Mingquan, who has not filmed for a long time, also participated in this drama as a starring role. The funny contradictions in it are also very reasonable, and if you think about it carefully, they are easily encountered in our lives.

The plot mainly revolves around Xitala Shuolan (played by Wang Mingquan), a princess who is loved by thousands of people. Everyone is obedient to her. She has a domineering personality and even the emperor avoids her. Since she married the embroidery businessman Ning Fengde (played by Shi Xiu), she feels that she has demeaned her husband and that the status of her husband and her husband's family has become more prominent because of her. The couple have a son, Ning Maochun (played by Huang Zongze). Shuolan has always wanted to find a beautiful and intelligent girl to be Maochun's wife, but unexpectedly, she marries Tian Li (played by Myolie Wu), the daughter of a copycat king. It turns out that on the day of their wedding, Tian Li and his father escaped the pursuit of the officers and soldiers, hid in the sedan in panic, and were sent to the Ning family to be their wives. Tian Li decided to use his tricks to deceive the Ning family, using the special status of Princess's wife in the hope of rescuing his father who was imprisoned. Shuolan met Tian Li, who had an equally fiery personality. From then on, the battle between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law officially began. The husbands of both parties became the role of reconciliation between them, and a series of farces were staged. But Shuo Lan still knew Tian Li’s true identity and wanted to get rid of her. As long as Maochun deceives his mother, Tian Li is already pregnant with Ning family flesh and blood. After Tian Li found out that the unknown hero he had always admired was his husband, the relationship between the two increased dramatically. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law continued to be stalemate, and the fighting became more and more fierce, but there was huge turmoil in the Ning family...

And this drama also contributed to the love between Bosco Bosco and Myolie Wu, although it was regrettable in the end. Unfortunately, they did not continue to be together, but the interaction in the play was very sweet. Myolie Wu had a little baby fat at that time, and I personally think that was when she was the cutest. Later I lost weight and wasn't as agile anymore. And the funniest thing is that the character played by Bosco Bosco is an unpleasant old man sandwiched between his wife and mother. But outside, there are famous heroes in the world who have not left their names. This contrast is very interesting. Isn't it exactly what girls want in their husbands, being submissive at home and aggressive outside?
