Plot Summary:
The Man family is headed by the paternal grandfather, Ye Ye, whose traditionalism and wisdom are rooted in his long-time career as a school principal. Ye Ye sets all the rules of the house, including the sons' curfews and what the family will have for dinner daily. Misunderstandings and miscommunication has created a tense relationship between Ye Ye and his son, Kit - the former has always been disappointed with Kit's carefree, undisciplined ways, while Kit has always resented his father's dominance within his own family.
The Man family also consists of three sons who enjoy an excellent relationship with the family despite their different personalities. Oldest son Freeman is 25 and has a "my way or the highway" of doing things, not caring too much about anything in particular (he is neither sad or troubled when his longtime girlfriend dumps him) yet remaining very loyal to his family. After some family disputes, he finally chooses a career path that matches his personality: a singer in Hong Kong's notorious entertainment circle.
Middle son Ray is a fresh university graduate seeking a job. Possibly the most unselfish member of the family with the exception of the mother, Ray is also caring, filial, responsible, and devoted. Extremely family-oriented, he often acts as the "middle man" in family disputes. Youngest son Kevin spends his days playing video games, begging for a new computer, breaking curfews, and barely passing his university courses. The three brothers get along extremely well despite their differences, and often team up to discuss family matters and problems.
Enter Miki. Outgoing, bubbly, and hardworking, she befriends Freeman and Ray under some peculiar circumstances. Working for Freeman's record company, Miki becomes his "boh moh" (a singer's personal assistant) although the two often butt heads. Ray falls in love with Miki after befriending her, and predictably, Freeman also falls for Miki. Although Freeman is the one Miki loves, their relationship is rocky due to the record company's disdain for singers dating assistants. There are also other problems.
Freeman and Ray engage in a classic 2-brothers-over-one-girl argument that is surprisingly affecting, concluding in an agreement that the "good man will win". In the end Freeman and Miki begin dating, but Freeman's carefree ways reveal that he is not a girlfriend kind of guy (i.e. non-committal). So they break up.
Meanwhile, tension is brewing between the father and grandfather. Ye Ye hands over the "man of the house" position to his son, who serves to turn the whole house around, claiming democracy in the family while imposing even harsher rules. In addition, Kit happens to be a monetarily petty man, and refuses to acknowledge that he has a lot to learn about his new role. Indeed, under his "leadership", both Ray and Kevin end up leaving home to live with the recently moved-out Freeman. The family remains somewhat intact due to the fact that Ye Ye has been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, and then Ye Ye and Kit get kidnapped. Welcome to Hell.
Basically all of the family's problems come down to this kidnapping. Ye Ye and Kit have a heart-to-heart while they're in the kidnappers' hands, who in turn were smart enough to keep them in an apartment unit that is directly across from their home. The police and the rest of the family come save them. Cue happy happy ending

wah....sampai begitu. tiada langsung drama HK di Indo. Berbeda dengan di Malaysia. Kami di sini boleh menonton drama dari pelbagai negara kerana channel TV kami mengambil banyak produk luar. Kini ia menjadi isu panas di Malaysia. Katanya.., rakyat Malaysia tidak begitu menghargai karya sendiri....

kjk_2006_256 · Post time 7-2-2008 07:19 PM

sebenarnya,sebelum tahun 2004 TV indo sama dengan TV malay saat ini,
ramai telenovela, taiwan, korea, hollywood n bollywood shows..
namun bermula RCTI siarkan Liontin,
sinetron makin menjadi dan menjadi pilihan utama penonton indonesia..
sebelum tu, rating Romance in The Rain (Vicki Zhao), Meteor Garden, Rosalinda, Kuch-Kuch Hota Hai (movie), Charlie's Angels (movie), Endless Love/Autumn in My Heart pernah memasuki top 10..

drama malaysia, saya mulai suka siri GHOST kat 8TV...
bagus! namun mengapa pula ditayangkan jam 10 malam??
harusnya, macam 8TV tu kena kurangkan foreign program kala petang, dan siarkan drama melayu..
TV3 pun sama..mengapa tayangkan Detective Conan pk.7.30 ptg?? lebih baik siarkan siri macam Samarinda atau Air mata Maria lebih awal..

he3..'sorry back to topic..
jadi siri ni sudah tyg kat astro??macam tvb drama kat RTM 2 pun sudah tayang kat astro..apakah semua tvb drama kat free tv mesti lalui astro dahulu?

itu dia Ann..
jika tayang tengah hari, tak ramai orang tengok..
they r working..go to school etc..
jika acara pk 7-9 pm diisi program tempatan, maka kelak orang2 terbiasa dengan program tempatan, bukan dengan foreign drama

kjk_2006_256 · Post time 7-2-2008 11:40 PM

air mata maria tu saya paling tidak suka! ramai rakyat Malaysia yang tidak berapa suka dengan air mata maria....

ceritanya agak tidak berkualitas.....
