anyone is actually gonna get tht thing ? i read the newspaper. one episode RM1.50 if i'm not mistaken. exp neh neh >< ! but, first 5 episodes of TDOL will be free.

its quite exp. even TDOL itself is 90 bux. but, we can rewind and rewatch again and again !

RLF Lover - July 1, 2007 02:16 PM (GMT)
THAT! i've been wanting to talk about that XD

well, no! if you're a Dynasty subscriber, as in you have Channels 30, 31 etc etc, you only have to pay RM 0.99 for it so that is considered cheap compared to the rental stores.

Plus, we can only rewind and watch over and over again is if we have Astro MAX! (which i obviously dont have T.T)

Celestience - July 1, 2007 10:35 PM (GMT)
eh. . . nani. . . need astro max ??! bleh.

RLF Lover - July 2, 2007 08:36 AM (GMT)
you said rewind O.o

if no need astro max then that means it'll repeat over and over again lahh .. but u can't rewind a default astro player =S

ahaha, sorry, wrong info given >< i read that every 4 episodes will be on 1 channel which will continuously play the episodes agani, and again, and again . . . until the series end. so dont think we can watch it again after it ends?

RLF Lover - July 2, 2007 11:11 AM (GMT)
errm, well from what i read in the ad .... after the series ends, we'll go on to another series .. its like whatever drama is aired in HK will be aired on AOD too.

so have u gotten it?

Celestience - July 2, 2007 01:38 PM (GMT)
not sure, still considering. you getting it ?

yeah, after 4 episode airs, those eps will go to some 9xx channel, and will show again . . . and again . . . i think when the nxt series ends, that again will come to an end=D

RLF Lover - July 2, 2007 02:40 PM (GMT)
channel 931 if not mistaken but i thought all the episodes will be aired on the same channel too?

or is the first 4 episodes being aired in another channel and so on?

RLF Lover - July 10, 2007 01:59 PM (GMT)
has anyone suscribed to Astro on Demand yet?

i have only 6 more days to suscribe before its too late ! @_@

Celestience - July 10, 2007 02:47 PM (GMT)
i subscribed dii.

i asked the lady. she said it will play the new episode on 900 until the next episode airs.

then after that it will be moved to 93x every 4 episodes. so the maximum wait time for one episode will be 4 hours i guess.

RLF Lover - July 11, 2007 08:06 AM (GMT)
nope, its 3 hours. i checked the Astro site and i saw it in the terms and conditions.

hey, when we call to suscribe, what do we have to tell to them?

Rayforever - July 11, 2007 10:08 AM (GMT)
RLF Lover...when u call, u just give the operator ur Astro account number and the name of the account owner...then, she'll ask u to turn to channel 900 to check whether u can see the Astro logo there or not, if there is, dat means ur decoder is activated and u can start watching channel 931 on 16th July 9.30pm for the 1st episode of TDOL... ;)

RLF Lover - July 11, 2007 10:56 AM (GMT)
haha yeps, i gave her my smartcard number instead cos neither of my parents was the one who registered. my uncle did though so thats why i couldnt get the IC / Astro account number.

but i've already gotten it. ^^ thanks anyways <3

P.S the lady was darn friendly when I called and talked to her :lol:

Rayforever - July 11, 2007 11:15 AM (GMT)
Haha...glad dat u got it already RLF Lover...u know, when I first read about Astro on Demand offering the latest TVB series and we can watch TDOL the same time as HK, i was sooo thrilled...now, finally, I can watch one of Ray's major series without waiting for more than a year...haha... ;) But the next series on Astro on Demand according to the girl is called Father & Son starring Bobby Au Yeung, I wonder izzit Trouble Daddy?

RLF Lover - July 11, 2007 01:31 PM (GMT)
mmhmm the next one is called Father and Sons .. also starring Bowie Lam if i didnt forget ... hmm @_@

yeah! i was darn thrilled about it too ! :lol: i saw it in the papers and i was practically jumping for joy (in public XD) and i kept pestering my mom to get it although i had to go through my aunt for it lol.

but hey, all those guts gathering to talk and all that was worth it. ^^

Rayforever - July 11, 2007 01:44 PM (GMT)
Haha yup...guess we haf the same reactions to Astro on Demand, except dat mine was at home, not in public...lolz... well, means Father & Son is not Trouble Daddy then coz dat one stars Wong Hei & Tavia I think...oh well...anyway I'm satisfied with watching TDOL together with HK, at least now I won't feel left out when ppl r discussing about the series... :lol:

RLF Lover - July 12, 2007 08:28 AM (GMT)
wait wait wait !

was it Bowie or Wong Hei that i saw ?!

idk =S not sure thought but i'll reconsider watching that series after TDOL. if not just download from the net.

Rayforever - July 16, 2007 11:11 AM (GMT)
Lolz...I'm getting more & more excited, TDOL is airing tonite at 9.30 and I can't wait to watch it...this the first time I'm getting to watch a TVB series the same time as HK...wow...thanks to Astro on Demand...hopefully the series will be real good & the ratings r high, so Ray's popularity can be boosted even further... :lol:

RLF Lover - July 16, 2007 02:29 PM (GMT)
theres no need to hope.

we've all be anticipating TDOL since forever. so everyone else should too! the ratings are predictable to be very very high. and i doubt it should be less than 30.

i'm even more excited to watch the next episodes and the episodes following. <3
