Flogging a Dead Horse, or... The Little Nyonya

5th January 2009. That was the day when Mediacock.. oops, I mean, MediaCORP, ended its run of the drama series The Little Nyonya.

Today's date? 9th February 2009. Even 1 month later, you still can see commercials on TV featuring themes from The Little Nyonya.

When the show has ended, it has ended. What the fuck are you guys thinking?

I cannot fathom the hypothetical situation if a series like Prison Break, Heroes, House, or even Lost still running advertisements AFTER the series finale has ended. It would be a totally ridiculous and ludicrous situation.

Seriously.

If big shows like these organized a THANK-THE-FANS outdoor show, or world tour after the series... hmm wait. Now I'm the one sounding stupid for even coming up with that hypothetical scenario. OK, I know, so I shall stop.

But you don't, you dumb fools.

Flogging a dead horse, milking the dead cow, beating off the dead man. Whatever. It has been nearly 10 years since I last sat down and watch a local series from the pilot episode, to the series finale.

This stretch is still going strong. And I'm proud of it.
