A Happy Ending for "The Little Nyonya"

"The Little Nyonya" is finally coming to the last episode on Monday after so many months of mega-hype and mega talked-about on this drama alone…

Recapping the highlights...
- a never-seen-before massive turnout of fans at the outdoor event on 27th December 2008 left Compass Point’s shattered with floor tiles cracking up due to the enormous presence of 5000 screaming fans. Easily the biggest turnout by any standard - surpassing even the good old days of 5566, 飞轮海Fahrenheit and SHE…
- Jeanette Aw 欧萱 and Dai Yang Tian 戴阳天 sweeping most of the Top 8 Most Likeable 年度8大最喜爱 awards at the ‘Ch 8 Countdown Party’ televised LIVE on 31 Dec somehow turned up the heat of ‘The Little Nyonya’ to a new level high…
- No longer in the league of the 7 Princesses, the audience and media now recognized Jeanette as the 3rd generation Ah-Jie 阿姐 after many years of just sticking with only Zoe and Fann. Even newcomer Dai Yang Tian is tipped to be the next biggest Ah-Ge 阿哥 in the making…

The drama not only rewrote all TV records many times and finally becoming No. 1 in 15 years last week, it is even widening the gap from the other dramas as we speak... Last Thursday’s (I only have up to Thursday) ratings set a new record high and easily the most-watched TV show on any given night!

Come Monday, the two hour back-to-back finale will most probably become the highest ever!
I read on the internet that many viewers are hoping for ‘The Little Nyonya’ Part 2 and even ‘The Little Nyonya – the Movie’. Some have even written suggestions as to how the Part 2 could be played out…

All good things will come to an end… For many fans of the drama, I think many will develop this ‘withdrawal syndrome’ when the drama ends on Monday…some sort of ‘emptiness’ like ‘missing something you so cherished for a while’… it always happens when you like something so deeply…

The next light-hearted drama ‘Reunion Dinner 团圆饭’(also written by the same guy behind ‘The Little Nyonya 小娘惹’, ‘Stepping Out 出路’, ‘Holland V 荷兰村’ and ‘The Golden Path 黄金路’ and starring Chen Liping, Chen Han Wei, Wan Yuqing, Kym Ng, Patricia Mok) will debut on Tuesday, 6 January. Will it match up to the wild craze of its predecessor? You be the judge.
