I didn't say I based my decision on if I like either actor. As you should know Huang hasn't even shown up yet. So don't draw conclusions that aren't there. If you needed clarification, ask before you decide to call people shallow. |
Actually from what you said that is exactly what it sounded like. Shall we recap...

aside from Xiu and Zhang Fei, I don't see a reason to watch another episode. Does it get better?
I guess what I'm asking is do we see less and less of the 38 year old fat guy who is missing teeth playing a HS student? Man, I can't stand Zhang Hao Ming. The only actor I hate more than him is Huang Wan Bo and I know he's gonna pop up in this cuz he's a producer. They're both horrible actors and never funny. |
And so what? The people who LOVE shows that are complete crap because they love the actors are just as shallow. I think you are bit over sensitive. I feel no shame in saying I very shallowly have watched shows I hated because of the yummy factor and refused to watch others because I hated the bad actors in it. The difference was... these actors were the main characters and so that actually had an impact on my shallowness. Side characters who hardly show up is sort of a silly place to get picky. That's like saying, "ew, that's the same set they shot that drama I hated on. I can't watch this anymore." That would be a really silly reason not to watch a show, right?
The basic thing is, it IS another Zhong Ji. All the running jokes apply. All the alternate selfs apply. It is sort of a game of "Ha! It's so-and-so!" The extra cast has always been that way in Zhong Ji. If you subtracted the people you don't like and can find a reason you like the show or want to keep watching, then keep watching. If their isn't enough of a reason for YOU to watch it, then don't. Asking other people if it's worth it is always sort of strange to me since it's MY time to waste and very few people I know have the exact same taste as me. There are maybe 2 or 3 people who I would ever listen to if all they had to say about a show is it's good or bad. I mean, look through the drama recommendation thread. Some people say some of the crappiest dramas ever are amazing and don't elaborate. Others have never seen some of the best because no one famous was in it. This is the shallowness talking. It's not a bad thing, but it's also not going to get you real opinions based on a careful evaluation of acting ability, story telling, or directing style. It's going to get you a whole lot of "OMG he's hot!"
I know a lot of people (for the aforementioned shallow reasons) wont even give KO3 a chance because FRH aren't the leads anymore. And I know a lot of people have never liked the style of show Zhong Ji has been. It IS very cheesy.
So the pluses I can think of are: KO3 is a Classical Chinese story adapted into modern times with a comedic twist. Basically force fed educational material that doesn't make you fall asleep. If you have an interest in Chinese culture this is a good thing. It has a bunch of fresh new actors mixed in with your seasoned ones. Adding fresh blood to the acting pool is always good in my book. Sure some may not be the best actors but then, some of the biggest idols aren't very good actors either. The guys are all cute. Yup, shallow... but they are. Xiu even grows a personality, which is adorable. The girls are all cute. Yi Zhen is one of my favorite actresses; I find her adorable and sweet. Kimi and Pets are also pretty. All the guys have martial arts training so there is actually martial arts IN the show... unlike the last two. The music is amazing. The OST is a construction of Champion, Dong Cheng Wei, Wu Hu Jiang, Pets, and Nylon forming this sort of super band at times. Well actually I don't think Nylon was part of the super band but he is part of the OST. And yes, they all make cameos at some point near the end.
The down side is it IS Zhong Ji. It will be cheesy. There will be lots of puns and bad jokes. There will be slap stick and it wont be everyone's cup-of-tea.

Wow You actually had the time to type all that bs. Too bad I don't have the time to read it. However it is clear, you have issues.
Why don't you pretend like you can't see my username and I'll do the same for you.

WTF?... I have issues?
I wasn't insulting you or being malicious in that post. I spent the time to explain the good things about the show. Details other than "OMG he's hot." But I guess you don't actually care to hear anyone's opinion of the show, you just want someone to flat out tell you "watch it" or "don't watch it."
In that case, "don't watch it." You give off such a negative opinion of it already. I wont waste anymore of my time talking you into something you seem to never had intended to do.

I knew this drama quite long time ago but i never gave it a try coz i thought it was somehow stupid...But now everything's changed. I started to love it .I watched it because i saw the poster and the guy with black bandanna catch my attention lols
Now this drama is one of my fav coz it's so entertaining and all the characters are so funny in their own ways. I love how they made it like a parody of Romance Of The Three Kingdoms ^^
------------------
P/s : I love Benji (Zhao Yun) in this drama. He's definitely impressive.
Can someone please update some pictures of him ? ^^
Anyways, Thanks for starting this thread.

Shao Xiang... mmm!
Ahh, so that's what he looks like without black bandanna. He looks alright but as for others...whew. Nice pictures.
Ah yeah it's hot in here.
