That's right. Life Transformers 2 is a variety programme hosted by Quan Yi Feng and Christopher Lee. This programme aims to help the less fortunate in life, for example treatments for sickness, work for the jobless, school for the children and house cleaning. Through this programme, we are able to feel for them and see how fortunate we are when we see the other society in Singapore. They have their problems, we have ours, but whose is harder to solve and more important for survival?
It pains to see them suffer without anyone helping. Come on, where have all the kind people in the world go? Fortunately, those willing to help have applied as volunteers. In fact, this process not only helps the less fortunate, it allows them to learn an important life lesson that can only be experienced, not taught. Through this show, we can also see the true side of the two hosts. While filming, they are able to crack light jokes despite of their feelings then. This really stands out to me and I really appreciate their efforts. This show would have easily obtained the "Most-Watched Variety Show" in this year's Star Awards 2010 if not for "The Wedding" of Christopher Lee and Fann Wong.
I personally feel that Quan Yi Feng is a host of her own. She is often asked to host helpful programmes like "Buzzling Cashier" and "Life Transformers 2" as she really can host it. Life Transformers 2 is really a nice and touching programme and we should all watch are remind ourselves to be happy with what we have.
Life Transformers 2 runs every Monday at 8pm for 1 hour with 10 episodes per season.
I totally agree with you. From this show, I can tell Christopher Lee has done a really good job, not only as a host but as a volunteer. As you can see, in most episodes you can see him doing most of the "dirty" work like cleaning the toilets.
ReplyDeleteKudos to Christopher for he is one of the rare actors that are willing to do such acts of kindness.
I agree. Christopher Lee is really brave. Rather, all of them are very brave. I doubt many of us can stand the foul smell of even public toilets or see cockroaches and ants running about!
ReplyDeleteI wish to highlight one of the volunteers, who is a retiree, called "Meixiang-jie". She is really helpful, appearing in every episode. Although she is retired, she still takes time to help the less fortunate people. As what people always say, "Helping others is a form of happiness." I guess that's true when you watch the ending of each episode. Tired, but happy.
Cheers!
Hmm, I feel that Christopher Lee is just trying to restore his public image after his blunder with the drinking issues. But ohwell, I really agree that he has done a great job in the show, much much better than co-host QuanYiFeng.
ReplyDeleteI don't agree with your comment Nigel. (:
ReplyDeleteI have watched several episodes of Life Transformer's and can tell that both hosts really get their hands dirty in cleaning up the house. There was once where Quan Yifeng wore a nice white blouse into the house but after cleaning up the colour was yellowish.
I truly appreciate the fact that there are some celebrities out there who are willing to sacrifice their time and help several underprivileged families. I doubt many celebrities would be willing to that kind of dirty work.
Great choice, great review, great post. :D
