ndmmxiaomayi SG Mediacorp shows may be acted by local actors and actresses, produced in SG, but a lot of the work behind the scenes are all outsourced. Scripts, post-production, etc. Don't expect much from outsourced work. This is what you get from saving costs.
qlqq9 SG that is why I said it is sub standard lor! and that liang zhi qiang jack neo, still tries his ways and means tojustify his reasons for copying others. very hopeless! Mediacorpse like the ruling government of singaproe only good at making $$$. Just look at those competition shows they earn so much from the voting from viewers. EArn so much but produce crap shows. jiak liao bee!
Jader SG Totally agree with most of you.. I don’t watch mediacorp dramas nowadays.. Really can’t stand it. Maybe I’m a too particular about the language they speak. To me, I find that there are actually quite a number trying or labouring to speak very fluent Mandarin, which makes the whole acting very unnatural to me. I rather they speak in a way they are used to. Not too good, but at least natural. But I’m sure the govt won’t allow that kind of Mandarin to be spoken. I rather they go with dubbing. This is very individual though.. To me, I can’t stand it. As for the script wise, the points have been brought up which I agree.
Seven_Dragon SG A lot of people complaining about them via internet, newspaper, magazine, forums, etc etc etc But why they so thick-skinned and choose not to listen to us, the audience? Why they act like an ostrich, hide their head under the sand and pretend everything is good and nothing bad has happened In addition, "rob" 110 bucks from us every year
Mr.Shadows SG I think you are too shallow to know the hard work behind production line. When you are happily sleeping your ass off at 3am in the morning. Some people are manning the channel broadcasting playlist just to make sure content gets to the audience. Appreciate what you see.
qlqq9 SG hello, u know mediacorpse is under the gahmen. And gahmen don't listen to us, so you think mediacorpse will listen to us!
qlqq9 SG wei you be ohjective when you wanna bring up point. u mean tthe mediacorpose is the only tv station in the whole world who have people manning the channel broadcasting playlist to get contents to the audience. If you give this reason for their substandard production I think, you are not being realistic. U think we aare all 3 yr old to accept your crap above. very laughable!! go tell it to TVB Hong Kong they will laugh the ass off you.
qlqq9 SG u are right, man!!!!! what to do old man said singapore too small to have two tv stations!!!! hopeless mediacorpse!! if you notice some of their dramas are propaganda to support the gahmen's policies. Like the other time, they had this drama on Zoe gave birth to more than 1 baby to support the gahmen on increasing the population. they dun bother to improve only show what the gahmen support for bootlicking.
Mid9Sun SG I used to work for SPH and with mediaworks abit. Since beginning of time, we know mediawork is only wayang. It is govt way of pretending to the world that they open up the media industry...but we all guessed down the road, mediaworks will be absorbed and back to square 1
qlqq9 SG they have all the say. the very existence of the local tv stations is one of their tools of control. Thank goodness we have cable!!
Mr.Shadows SG We all know mediacorp productions are average, are below expectations. And the point of my post is at least appreciate the effort put in instead of condemning the work. I guess you have not done short films or been into the media warzone to realise the big picture.
Andkel SG Yes, I agree with qlqq9! Why should we be subjected to substandard productions even though ppl work at 3am. That means why not all of us start working at 3am and just give lousy work to our bosses and then our bosses give more substandard to their bosses and this way, we dun have to talk about MediaCrap any more ritez.
qlqq9 SG u wanna show off that you have done short films so you come here to show off? Please be relevant we are talking about the TV programmes not making short films. don't show off!!! wanna show off go mediacorpse and see or beg them to broadcast your short film. show off!!
qlqq9 SG he is being irrelevant to bring up people working at 3 am blah blah blah. is he showing off he is into making short film or what!!! damn stupid post of his!!! in chinese, this is called niu tou bu dui ma zuei! who cares who works at 3 am? I question his IQ! damn fool!!!! still wanna talk further!! Wow, he so affected when people give negative feedback about the programmes by mediacorpse!!!
rathcycle SG dun tok so much about them lah... singapore media under them 1 leh... and its under gahmen 1 leh.. u all not scared meh
qlqq9 SG wei, what talking u! u scared so timid don't come to sgforums lor. sgforums a lot of people talking about them. go have in your cave!!
