Miss No Good, Episode 3 Recap + Tang Men Ep.3 Expression Collection

>> Saturday, September 27, 2008



The sparks have started to fly...



We start off again with Xiao Hua seeking justice for Tang Men. Xiao Hua jumps in front of the car and starts berating Tang Men, telling him that he cannot quit. Amusingly, Tang Men changes his mind and pretends that he had always intended to fight back. They go, Tang Men reveals the truth and Ji Nuo is fired. See later on in this post for a sweet little smile Xiao Hua is rewarded with.



As Jia Si Le waits for Xiao Hua while suffering her Grandma's wrath, Xiao Hua and Tang Men spend some quality time together.






And, obviously, the only way to see where you are going when it is raining extremely hard is to put plastic bags over your head and stick it out the windows to see the road. I really don't understand how this works...(but it does make for a good laugh)






As if that is not enough, the two decide to start drinking and toasting to random things such as Tang Men being a robot...Being happily drunk, Xiao Hua starts lamenting about what it is like to kiss...




It seemed like a pretty passionate kiss to me. But of course the next day, you know something has to mess things up. Jiang Mi shows up and thankfully Xiao Hua gets out of the house without her real identity being revealed to Jiang Mi. (I forgot about this part, which confused me later on...)


I don't know whether it's a true test or not, but Jiang Mi apparently knows how to test the feelings of a guy by telling him to pick a scenario. It would be cool if it actually works. If anyone is a psychology major, please let me know.




This is the first time we really get the sense that Xiao Hua is falling for Tang Men. And perhaps Tang Men has some feelings for her (from the Jiang Mi psychology test).




The sentiments are a bit different on Tang Men's side, however. He cannot wait to get rid of her and ends up telling her to finish up her last lesson. The last lesson doesn't go well as Tang Men basically tell her to get out of his sight. That's one of the things I really like about this series: It can turn ugly, then funny, and then sad so quickly, yet so effectively.




Having ended with a sad farewell to Tang Men's hairdryer, Xiao Hua and Tang Men never expected to see expected again. However, fate does not seem to be on their side (or should I say, it is on their side?). First, we find out that Jiang Mi is not as innocent as we thought she was. I really was hoping that she would simply accept it, but, of course, we must have an antagonist and a rival for love to make the story interesting. And then...




I love how her elegance and class just suddenly disappears. The faces are hilarious. Anyway, back at the scene Tang Men and Xiao Hua have an interesting argument about why Xiao Hua wants to date Jia Si Le.




And then Jiang Mi walks in...


---------------


I am enjoying this series a lot. I think by now, the shock of Xiao Hua's voice has worn off and it has started to seem natural. However, I am still hoping that her hair tones down a bit, though she does pull the poofy haired look off pretty well.


What is making this series for me is the interaction between Tang Men and Xiao Hua. The two actors, Will Pan and Rainie Yang create such chemistry between the two characters that I can't find myself wondering whether Xiao Hua should be with Jia Si Le or not. That might be a bad thing since the second male lead should have a least some chemistry between him and the female lead for the series to be more interesting. However, I'm not complaining. I have the two guys to drool at and I'm satisfied.

Miss No Good, Episode 2 summary

>> Saturday, September 20, 2008



Look! It's Will Pan's "Playing Cool" album cover! *points*



In episode 2, Xiao Hua finally receives her "2nd" lesson for her makeover.  As always, the subsequent scenes pertaining to this are fun and entertaining...



Although the things that Tang Men teaches Xiao Hua is predictable, I still had a good laugh. One thing that I really, really wanted to happen was to see Xiao Hua...STRAIGHTEN HER HAIR. Too bad, that obviously didn't happen. Looks like we're stuck seeing this mop-hair wig afterall.





Tang Men teaches Xiao Hua manners when arriving at a restaurant.



So after going through this whole makeover session, Xiao Hua goes on a successful date with Jia Si Le as an elegant lady. But as we all know it, this relationship won't last. Tang Men even warns Xiao Hua that she's better off finding someone she truly loves. But that person will obviously be Tang "Moon" as we continue watching.



In this episode, we also saw a special appearance from singer, eVonne Hsu, in Xiao Hua's dream.





The scene foreshadows a possible "consequence" that Tang Men might have to pay later on in the series for his "poisonous tongue". I'm guessing that it's most likely an obstacle/challenge in his love relationship (duh!). Who knows...we're left hanging as Xiao Hua wakes up from her dream. Nonetheless, it was a nice cameo since it has been a long while since we've seen eVonne. I don't know how many people remember, but Will Pan was featured in one of eVonne's songs when Will just started to transition from being a VJ to a singer in 2002 (check it out!).



The pacing of this drama is so far, so good. There really isn't a character I don't like so far. They all seem to be weird-out and funny in their own way, even Xiao Hua, with her over-the-top acting and squeaky voice (which we can only hope that it'll tone down later)...hahaha...



Just for your reference, its ratings has increased from 1.6% (episode 1) to 2.52% in episode 2, which is following very close behind Hot Shot (2nd place to Invincible Shan Bo Mei).

Similar Excerpt from Post:




Ahoy!!!! We're definitely back and in full-force for this drama :D




To be honest, we actually were ready earlier, but some of our keen QCers noticed
a definite loss of quality during encoding. We were trying to rectify that with different methods, but were about to give up and just release the standard file until....




...YDY decided to release their Miss No Good raw. We ended up hastily transitioning to that and now here we are today!




Notice: We've changed a couple things from our usual process (aside from looks, logos, etc...). We may have most likely broken some portable media player's compatibility. This was done to maximize image quality from conversion, so I (me) apologize in advance. Thanks!

Miss No Good Episode 1 RELEASED!!!!!

>> Friday, September 12, 2008



Here's Episode 1. =D Hope you all enjoyed it!



WARP to download Episode 1




Release notes by fufu:



In episode 1, you'll see that the variety show that Tang Men is on is a spoof of the actual very popular, successful, and long running variety show, "Queen".  Like what you find out in Miss No Good, the variety show is oriented towards talk of fashion and cosmetics (and makeovers!).  




Lan Xin Mei - Host of "Queen"


The regular cast of the show consisted of 3 main stylists: Kevin (make up), Tony (hair dresser), Niu Er (make up).  The course of the show soon headed towards "special projects" like battle between stylists to see who can give female stars the best makeover.  Similar to what is happening to Tang Men, new stylists were added to the show.  In Tang Men's case, a new stylist is being added to the show to boost ratings.  On Queen, new stylists were added to alleviate the workload on the 3 stylists (due to other jobs outside of the show).  




Kevin - helping model, Liz, apply make up. Kevin now has his own cosmetic brand, BeautyMaker.


Rare special guests also go on the show...




Wu Zun - putting lip gloss on Lan Xin Mei.

Miss No Good, Episode 1 summary

>> Monday, September 08, 2008

From our co-ordinator previous post, I presumed that you guys would have known that we have taken a new project, Miss No Good. So, I’m here to do the honour of writing a short summary as well as giving my opinion about the first episode. :D



*Warning: Spoilers in the summary! Read at your own risk!*



The first episode was just a general introduction of the characters in the drama. Our main girl, Xiao Hua (Rainie Yang) is a very unladylike and loud girl (Yes, very loud!!!). One piece of advice, make sure you don’t put your volume too high while watching this episode. She’s practically screeching in every line. I thought I was going deaf. Besides that, she has no fashion sense at all. Her clothes and accessories were mismatched and she was known as “A Christmas Tree” by the fashion guru, Tang Men. (Will Pan) Honestly, she really looks hideous!

My favourite part was the part where Jia Si Le (Dean Fujioka) came out to greet his guest in his welcome party. My first reaction was: “This guy is so hot!!!!” I’m not kidding, look at the screen cap! :D



One thing really good about this drama is it’s full of good looking guys! Even Tang Men’s assistant and Xiao Hua’s classmate are both quite good looking. Lots of drooling to do! Hahahaha!!!!!! Anyway, back to our Si Le, he used to be a fat and chubby boy. Suddenly he came back as the man with the perfect size and looks most women will die for. Xiao Hua, who was his childhood sweetheart, was practically swept away by him. Who can blame her for that? If I’m in her shoes, I will probably had the same reaction. ;D


Si Le made it really obvious that he is going to court Xiao Hua and of course our heroine will be too happy to accept it. Unfortunately, after falling into the swimming pool at the party, she realised that she is not suitable to be with him. She is too rough and loud to be with a person of high status like Si Le. So she seeks for Tang Men’s help to change her into a fashionable and a proper lady. Tang Men is a very popular fashion guru but with an arrogant character. His first encounter with Xiao Hua did not turn out well and he refused to help at first but was blackmailed to help her or Xiao Hua will throw his set of precious scissors (made from Italy!) away.


As much as I like to see Si Le ended up with Xiao Hua, but I’m afraid that it is very unlikely to happen. It’s going to be Tang Men and Xiao Hua as they embark on their journey together to make Xiao Hua a proper and sophisticated lady. Anyway, I think I have rambled too much. :p Enjoy Episode 1! =D
