Trivia on "The Little Nyonya" finale


"Giant Little"

5 things we learnt from the final episode of "The Little Nyonya" last Monday...
  1. Turns out the No. 1 Ch 8 drama of 2008 is also the first blockbuster of 2009. According to TNS Market Research, 1.67 million viwers tuned in to the finale, making it the most-watched Ch 8 show in the last 15 years.

  2. Jeanette Aw isn't the only one who deserves to win at the Star Awards in April. Joanne Peh's mind-blowing (or is it mind-losing?) performance as Yuzhu is worthy of a hundred standing ovations. If she doesn't win, we demand a recount. Or else we're going to slash the seats. Felicia Chin's tear ducts deserve an honorary mention as well.

  3. Robert Zhang (Zzen Zhang) is a totally incorrigible fiend. So much so that we should incorporate his name into our daily water-cooler conversations. "Don't be a Robert Zhang." "Don't pull a Robert Zhang on me." "Is our Robert Zhang in yet?" Pity he didn't die a nastier death. Like castration.

  4. Yueniang has super regenerative powers. How the hell did she escape the raging fire unscathed? Or did Hiro whisk her away?

  5. There is always room for more Little Nyonya adventures, if they ever decide to sequelise it. Not so much a sequel but a 'mid-quel' focusing on Yueniang's middle-age years as she raises Yuzhu's baby. Think of it as her Clone Wars. That story arc could take up 20 episodes or more.
