Best Drama Series: Can't Buy Me Love
A Chip Off the Block
The Mysteries of Love
Every Move You Make
No Regrets

Although No Regrets (like Rosy Business did the previous year) took home the majority of the awards, I'm surprised that it didn't win Best Drama Series. I'm also a little surprised that both Wayne Lai and Sheren Tang won Best Actor and Best Actress, respectively, again but they deserve them so no complaints there.

I'm neutral towards Fala Chen winning Best Supporting Actress again since I haven't seen No Regrets yet but there's a lot of complaints about this. I'm glad Raymond Lam won an award but his character in The Mysteries of Love wasn't that great; Steven Ma or Kenneth Ma should have won.

The best winner in my opinion is Raymond Wong! I'm so happy that he is getting recognized. I would have been happy with any of the actresses winning the Most Improved Female Artist (maybe besides Chan Sin Yeung because I don't know who she is) since they all deserved it.

I thought for sure No Regrets would have won. Can't Buy Me Love was enjoyable to watch but I didn't think it was the best drama this year.

Moses Chan winning Best Professional Performance Award was definitely a constellation award but congratulations to Louise Lee for winning the Lifetime Achievement Award.
