Summary: Wallace is a psychologist and his good pal Joe is a psychiatrist, who is very popular with girls. Wallace met Ling Shan, who is a feng shui master and they did not go along well intially. However, soon they became good pals though they still bicker with each other. Ling Shan & Joe happened to be friends in the orphanage since young, and Ling Shan had been secretly in love with Joe for 20 years. Basically, the drama consisted of many sub-stories with cases being dealed by Wallace and friends. Many topics were touched on and of coz, the love triangle between the 3 of them.
Comments: This drama may appeared to be boring, but it's definitely not boring! Hahaha! The plot was rathering interesting, because it touched on many topics we might faced in everyday life. It's the first drama (if i'm not wrong) to focus work on psychologist. Every cases were equally interesting, but the best part was the case on Carmen, who was actually a lesbian. I havent watch any drama which dealed alot on homosexuality. So i really wanna give thumbs up to TVB for touching on this issue. Another interesting case was on a woman who had plastic surgery to look like her boyfriend's ex, but actually that woman was his deceased mum.
As for acting wise, Sunny and Joyce portrayed well as Wallace and Ling Shan. I like to see their interactions, really funny and interesting. As for Kevin, his performance was average, perhaps the character was average as well. U know..very limited development. Cherrie's acting was quite good in this drama, but i credited it to her character Carmen. There's quite alot of development for this lesbian character, coz' we wld not know it from the start & the hints were not very clear to me. Also, the drama focused on her fears and struggles as her mother didnt know she's a lesbian. The supporting cast did a good job too!! At least they did made the drama lively and funny.
Talking about flaws, there were quite a few. Firstly, even the main characters had some kind of psychological disorder, like Wallace who dont used a fork or dont allow woman to kiss him, coz he wld rush to toilet. Actually it would be better to let them remain "normal" la. Coz' it's kinda unrealistic to make everyone in the drama become one of the "cases". Saying about this part, it would appear towards the ending of the show. Kinda spoilt the whole series.
Lastly, Hacken Lee's themesong again! This time round is "Xin Jie" and i really like the lyrics. If u listen to the cantonese lyrics, the last word in each sentence of the chorus part would ryhme very well. Really terrific lyrics!
Rating: 8.5/10 (Though there's no big bang in this drama, it wont let u be bored for a second.)
