TVB series “Heart of Greed” aired its finale last week and a special banquet was arranged to mark the occasion. After a string of strong publicity, there were suggestions that ratings for the finale would break the ratings record held by “Jewel in the Palace” in 2005.
TVB announced the ratings results yesterday and the week averaged 40 points, with the finale averaging 44 points, watched by 2.87 million people. The finale peaked at the scene where Moses Chan’s character ‘Dak Dak Dei’ proposed to Linda Chung’s ‘Sheung Joi Sum’, where ratings points of 48 points were recorded, thats 3.1 million viewers. Although they did not break the record set by “Jewel”, but equalled the 2003 record set by “Square Pegs”, ranking itself in one of the highest rated series of recent years. To celebrate the success, TVB will be holding another celebratory party and says that it will not be filming a sequel, but the original cast will be regrouped for a completely new series of a different genre.
As for “The Family Link” starring Sheren Tang, Cecilia Yip and Kiki Sheung, it averaged 34 points last week, up 2 points from the week before as the ratings continue to rise. However, the Miss Hong Kong 2007 Pageant Interview Reality Show only managed ratings of 18 points on Saturday morning, just pulling in 1.18 million viewers, proving that the new concept of beauty pageants has not helped with the falling ratings for TVB’s pageant in recent years.
