I’ll be honest, I was looking for new Matt Yeung dramedy and this is definitely that.
A typical example of the 3 stages of TVB entertainment, you get stage 1: comedy, as you get to know the characters and they dazzle you with their comedic timing. Stage 2: conflict - things take a stressful turn and they scramble to find a way out. Stage 3: consequences - how do they reconcile what they’ve done and can they move on?
I really liked the fact that over the course of the 20 episodes you get to see different sides of each character. Most of them get a chance to evolve a bit yet still be recognisable.
I’ve missed HK comedies so this filled a gap in my soul.

Good fun

Really enjoyed seeing Jay and his mates gallivant around various cities around the world. His mates' reactions to finding new stuff, Jay knowing a bit because he's been there before to shoot music videos - add in some street magic, some of his greatest hits as soundtrack, some fun guest stars and challenges, and I had a really good time.
It's still on UK Netflix so I've been back and watched it all again - Paris and possibly The Gold Coast were my favourites, but the surprise guest star of Nic Tse gave that particular episode a different feel to it. The last one, in Havana, was so much fun I've now seen it three times.
Wishing and hoping we get a season 2. I mean he's got to have more of these trips if he's got an album coming out probably end of 2020 / start of 2021, right?

Not satisfying

I was glued to this because of Nam - him and Fung were great characters and great to watch. Man started out annoying and irritating but her character development kicked in and she mellowed to the point of normal. However I don’t get why Shek Ngo-San should get a happy ending - they get that he was the villain, right? A self absorbed, hypocritical, obnoxious manipulator who should have got his comeuppance in the final episode, instead he gets peace and closure. Not happy. He should have paid for his behaviour. I can’t call him what I want to without swearing g so I’ll just say this: he’s the villain and everyone just let him get away with it. And by that I mean the writers.
