she should stay wif TVB cuz damn it a lot of pplz are leaving or have already left that i lyke :| Charmaine acting improved a lot in my opinion she annoys me less which is a good thing lols keep up the good work whoot

 

if all do mandarin series, there will be less and less canto. then i;m stuck with no series to watch ..

 

i like Charmine acting. she gets better and better. i perfer cantonese audio than mandarin audio. i hope she won't leave TVB.

 

tvb is treating their artists like slave and plays favoritism all the time so i am not surprised of the high turnover. ppl can tell by the quality of the series and the performance of the artists .. one word: BAD. so much that tvb has to recruit old veterans back to carry the show .. pitiful.
