From the get-go, I knew this will be a train-wreck but it's been a long time since I watched Priscilla in a drama so I decided to give it a try. Boy, biggest mistake of the year.

The premise was extremely fun and the plot was original - an anti-hero with a rat's body parts built into him after an accident, it's not something I've seen TVB do, but without a strong writing team that focuses on the smaller details to back up the idea, the show ultimately falls apart.

Priscilla is a natural when it comes to comedic moments but remains stagnant during emotional moments. In defense, her character writing lacks the depth that is needed to capture the watcher's (my) attention. And if the female lead character is already written so shabbily, you think more care is dealt to the two supporting female characters? Nadia and Ella are equal "victims" in the misogynistic writing - one a single-dimensional beautiful "goddess" who basically exists to give the male gaze what they want (feel so bad for Zoie that she has become what Sharon Chan and Toby Chan were casted in their roles before - for their sexy exposure of skin and legs), and another a gold-digger who generates more aggravating noise than meaningful talk.

Don't you love it when a show also contradicts its initial message and fat-shames, thereby teaching people that only beautiful people are kind while fat/ugly people are the worst kind of criminals :) I mean, what can you expect from a show that stars Sammy as its lead? :)
