I think alot of people made the comparison because 1) I think both series were set in the same era 2) some of the costumes looked similar, and 3) it had a few of the same cast in there and 4) some of the mannerisms of the characters were similar. But to be honest, outside of the above points, the rest of it isn't that similar, at least to me...I felt that VOH was a bit more "nonsense" and "silly" -- like pretty much the purpose of the series was to get the audience constantly laughing (from the names of all the characters and places to dialogue), so the storyline didn't really matter as much, whereas with "Colourful Life", it's purpose was really to tell a story -- the humor pretty much happened along the way...llwy12https://www.blogger.com/profile/02401832364832078932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765116522593136045.post-81543481860998015972010-08-29T18:49:36.354-07:002010-08-29T18:49:36.354-07:00When you said 'Coincidentally' - I was thi...When you said 'Coincidentally' - I was thinking of Frankie and Annie's other collaboration, LOL! (Though they did collaborated several times but only ended up together in Coincidentally - or so I know of - with ATV ones.) <br /><br />Anyway, I agree regarding the ending. I thought it was WAY rushed. It made sense in a way BUT I thought they tried too hard to wrap it that you noticed the pace was like "WHOA". But I shouldn't be too picky since it's a comedy (like you said also, lol). <br /><br />It was typical all right and I remembered it being compared to 'Virtue of the Harmony' in the past. BUT I never finished VOH since it was too long-winded and consisted a lot of nonsense formula. (Of course since it was a sitcom but I remember people comparing the two.)DTLCThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02412002838777406732noreply@blogger.com
