When Dogs Love Cats Review

Muhahah, I'm finally done with this show :D Okay I was a long time ago, but I was too lazy to write a review.

Promise you love me;
Honor and keep me;
For better or worse,
In sickness and in health


I really love this show, Gallen's performance was fabulous, Myolie's acting improved from Wars of In-Laws 2 and the storyline between Margie and Lui Fong is hilarious yet touching.

This is Gallen's comeback series. I remember reading from blogs that Gallen should not have starred in this series, but instead in a grand production. They also hated the fact that Myolie is acting with Gallen, as they expected him to act with someone of a higher status.

Seeing Myolie and Gallen together as a couple made me feel weird. In Golden Faith, they were acting as brother and sister.

Anyway, this series mainly focuses on the way people treat pets, and the way we as humans are not doing anything about it. Only a handful of us are. Myolie plays Chow Chi Yu, a woman who loves pets so much that she brings home a virus infected dog, Dai Ba, and it infects her father's whole kennel of German Sherpards. Her father's favourite dog, Lyh was killed by the virus.

Gallen plays Miu Chun, a man who loathes dogs. His girlfriend was killed in a car accident involving Dai Ba, and all he ever had of her was CanCan, a cat that his girlfriend had left him.

Miu Chun and Chi Yu become neighbours and colleagues. They see each other day and night, and the battle between "cat" and "dog" seem never ending.

Chi Yu's brother, Chow Chi Jim (Lui Fong) is married to Shui Tin Lan (Margie Tsang). Tin Lan is always bossing her husband around, and makes decisions for me without his knowledge. They have a seven year old son. Tin Lan wants her son to be a doctor when he grows up. However he aspires to be a dog trainer just like his father. Tin Lan despises dog trainers as she thinks that it will not make them earn enough money.

The whole Chow family turns against Chi Yu, her brother has gone back to Tin Lan's maiden home to bring her back with their son, her father has gone to the hospital after suffering a minor stroke and Tin Lan has bought over Chi Yu's share in the pet shop.

In all these problems, Miu Chun has been there for Chi Yu all the way. Before they knew it, they were falling in love. However the timing isn't just right, he discovers that his cancer has relapsed and he has just six months to live. He struggles to find the heart to reject Chi Yu.

I loved Gallen's character. His character Miu Chun is stubborn and proud. He pulled it off really well and I have to say that his actinng skills have not rusted throughout the years without him in TVB.

Myolie character Chi Yu is lovable. The way she tries really hard to please everyone in her household is really annoying. Especially since Tin Lan keeps making sarcastic remarks about her and Siu Ba. Myolie's crying scenes have improved tremendously since Wars of In-Laws 2. Her scenes now are much natural unlike in Wars of In-Laws 2.

I must comment about Margie and Lui Fong as well. Their characters, Tin Lan and Chi Jim are simply hilarious to watch. I loved the way they interacted with each other. Tin Lan is a bossy woman who loves to boss her husband around, but she changed for the better.

This show made me cry alot, seriously alot. It was the first time I cried so much for a TVB drama. I cried the most during episodes 19 and 20 the most.

This is my favourite scene:
