- Main characters face and resolve conflicts through happy chance and some contrivance
- The humour is campy and the writing never takes itself too seriously. The jokes and nuances are best enjoyed if you understand Chinese (accents and puns galore)

- Unfortunately both shows are also not geared for the international audience, with subtitles missing or sorely inaccurate
