Kenneth Ma Strong Chance To Become TV King If Based on Public Opinion

This year TVB heavily promoted Kenneth Ma to become one of the front line Siu Sangs. The series he starred in, The Hippocratic Crush (THC), was the top rated series for the first half of 2012. The entire series averaged at 31 points and the finale peaked at 39 points (nearly 2.5 million viewers). No wonder TVB took advantage of the momentum and decided to make a sequel. They even got Lawrence Ng to make a comeback in the sequel, which starts February 2013.

Aside from THC, Kenneth also stood out in Three Kingdoms RPG co-starring Raymond Lam. The 25 episode series averaged 30 points and young viewers really enjoyed Kenneth's first comedy series. In addition, Kenneth guest starred in two episodes of the popular weekend series Tiger Cubs, where he played the King of Thieves. For the first time, Kenneth got very positive feedback for his villain role. In the coming weeks, TVB scheduled his series Silver Spoon, Sterling Shackles co-starring Damien Lau, Tavia Yeung and Ron Ng to release as an anniversary series. Kenneth had been silently plowing through in the last many years, but this year he finally gets the opportunity to seize the TV King title as the dark horse. Also, TVB plans to do public voting for the TV King and Queen this year. Kenneth is also a rating guaranteed artist, his series are usually high rated, which increases his chances of winning. Regarding this, Kenneth modestly said: "I have many opponents this year and there are many other series that haven't released yet. Just like the grand productions The Last Steep of Ascent and The Confidant. I don't dare to put my hopes up too high. If I do get an award, of course I'll be happy, just wait for TVB to do the arrangements. (Do you want to get the award with Tavia Yeung?) Doesn't have to be the TV King and Queen, even if it was just the 'My Favorite TV Male and Female Character' awards, I'll be just as happy. I personally think Tavia has already reached that level in her acting, but she's just missing the award. Among the FaDans, she's one of the very best. In my heart, she's one of the 'First Sisters'."
