Classic Memories

I love this type of nostalgic event where you reminisce about the past...
23.11.63 - 23.11.08 (45 Years Anniversary)


I really like the the opening for the show!
It starts with a video in black and white of some kids... fighting and rushing back home to watch TV, accompanied with the song "看电视" is just so apt!
Then back to the studio itself, we have the earliest generation of artistes on Singapore TV up on stage, introducing each and every of their names.
And this way of introduction applies for the rest of the artistes.
It was beautiful done.



The variety and drama impersonation by the artistes really let me laugh my heads off man! It was so hilarious! LOL And ex-hosts would be invited on the segment to be interviewed about their memories on their show.

This was Comedy Night!
(L to R): "我的头发有没有乱?" (by Kym), "伤脑筋哦!" (by Guo Liang), the actual "Liang Xi Mei" (Jack Neo), Lion King (by Hui-Ge), 小龙女 (by Patricia Mok), Rubbish Bin (by Mark Lee)
Guo Liang was beyond FUNNY in all his roles, especially as Liang Xi Mei! It was so out from his usual image! HAHA


This is my all-time favourite variety programme - 城人杂志 (City Beat)!
The first generation of hosts was actually He Yong Fang, Pan Ling Ling, Chew Chor Meng and Bryan. Then He Yong Fang had to go overseas for filming, and Kym went in to substitute her temporarily.
But it turned out that the show went so well with Bryan, Kym, Sharon Au and Lina Ng as the hosts! It was such a big hit then.
With some classic characters like Miss Tan (by Kym) - classic quote "我舍~么!都会" and "给我从头再来!" and the "志己"family - 志己来 (by Bryan) HAHA
A pity that Bryan and Sharon Au are not there... I would love to see the fab four doing this segment together.
*(Please encore 城人杂志~!)


And of course, how could we forget Liang Po Po and her "Wooo... wooo... woo... woo..."?
Winner of the 'Most Classic Variety Character'


Impersonation of the character - '龅牙嫂' (originally by Hong Hui Fang) by husband (Zheng Ge Ping). He was equally hilarious too! Hong Hui Fang couldn't stop laughing when he impersonates right beside her!

Need I say more? Their imitation spells everything!
(L to R): Lobang King (by Pornsak), Bobo (by Quan YiFong), Yan Fei (by Hui-Ge) and Xie Shao Guang's role in Golden Pillow!
One of my all-time favourite drama was Unbeatables I & II! HAHA
All of them would do a pose similar to that which was shown in the video still image, and that 'half-screen original vs half-screen imitation' shows that we need "Quality Control" HAHA!


(L to R): Aiyoyo (by Dennis Chew), Ah Shui (by Mark Lee), Hong Tou Jin (by Vivian Lai) and Ah Mei (by Zheng Li Fen)
When I saw the 'Aiyoyo' looking character on stage, I was thinking "Who can it be?! It's so identical?!" Then when they bring it to a close-up, it was Dennis Chew! LOL

The stage is flooding with talents!


Oh yes I do enjoy the show. It was unique and beyond entertaining!
The song - 看电视 is still ringing in my head.


To end on a final note, here's Kym!
Working on another drama - 乒乓圆 after 团圆饭.


And oh, Liting couldn't calm down after witnessing how the other fans can be so diversified in their relationship with so many artistes. HAHA
