'Sister Fa' tops Netizen's choice 'Most Dislike Series of 2011' along with 'When Heaven Burns' & 'Men With No Shadows'

 
TVB usually broadcasts three series during the prime time hours. If you catch all of the series during the year, you should be able to watch 25 different series. By the end of the year, aside from the TVB Anniversary Awards, selecting the 'Best Series of the Year', Netizens have also created their own spoof, 'The Series I Dislike the Most in 2011'. The "Top 3" winners for this competition is My Sister of Eternal Flower (Sister Fa) (1st place), When Heaven Burns (WHB) (2nd place) and Men With No Shadows (MNS) (3rd place).


Charmaine Sheh & Raymond Lam's series in the Top 3

 
The related poll for the 'most disliked series of the year' had over 200 votes. Each person can vote for 3 series. My Sister of Eternal Flower broadcast in May of this year got 87 votes, making the series the most disliked series of the year. In second place is When Heaven Burns with 81 votes and Men with No Shadows follows behind with 78 votes. In 4th place is Only You with 50 votes, while Super Snoops and Curse of the Royal Harem tied in 5 place with 46 votes each.

 
A Netizen described Sister Fa and MNS as the 'can't lose group'. In fact, Charmaine was miserably harmed by Sister Fa since she was being heavily compared before and after the broadcast. Before Sister Fa aired, Charmaine's role as 'Female Version of Ah Wong' was seen as a challenging role and with the addition of popular idol Raymond Lam as her partner, it became one of the most anticipated series of 2011. However, after the broadcast, audience didn't like the mentally challenged story and were in opposition. Charmaine's role was greatly disliked and her acting was criticized. The series only averaged 25 points.

 
In MNS, Raymond's devil role and use of hypnotism was first described by Netizens as 'Schizophrenic King of Chok'. When the series broadcast, the ratings weren't too bad averaging at 27 points and the two hour finale averaged at 32 points.

 
WHB has been named as the 'Drives Away See Lai Drama'. The series has also been criticized for being too draggy, a 30 minute piece dragged out to 1 hour. Although the series is in second placed for being the most disliked series of the year, there are still supportive Netizens: "Dislike does not mean the series is trash, it's just some people don't understand the story."

 
A keen Netizen found the 'Charmaine Code', Charmaine's series WHB is considered a low rated series because her 2005 series with Ekin Cheng and Bowie Lam Always Ready averaged at only 23 points. The coincidence is that aside from Bowie Lam being in both series with her, WHB and AR were both broadcast on November 21st, which couldn't escape from the low rating fate.
