Anyway, don’t you want to know why I started revisiting my TVB drama viewing history? Of course you do.
Teresa Cheung sings the theme songs to both the Return of the Condor Heroes series in 1983, and Bottled Passion in 2011. Her voice has pickled nicely for perpetuity.
P.S. Bottled Passion is so good! It’s weepy and melodramatic (as opposed to super weepy and totally melodramatic, aka K-dramas) and Niki Chow’s character and acting kind of sucks and I still don’t give a fuck. They are telling a well-constructed, well-plotted story and the characters aren’t acting OOC, and you can tell, as opposed to some shows I shan’t mention*.
*Heroes

You know, for the longest time, I was wondering what the hell the eagle was doing on a show called Return of the Condor Heroes. Then, at the moment of watching this video (a few minutes ago) I realized:
THE EAGLE IS THE CONDOR
Lol what the hell, man.
Ignoring the fact that a condor is a New World bird, CONDORS DO NOT LOOK LIKE EAGLES.
P.S. I totally need to make a GIF out of the first ten seconds of this video.

This is the bestest Old Master Q moment of all time.
The burnt-in subs are kinda shite… so I did my own, equally inaccurate, version.

WO BU XIHUAN NI!!!
I’ll watch anyway, I’m a sucker for HYD. But Hunan TV shows kinda blow, that Hunan Ugly Betty annoys the shit outta me.
