Story: First thing I want to point out is.. what's with the title? It's one of the most poorly named TVB dramas out there! That aside... the story is basically about a group of 'constables' solving mysteries along with all the love stories of the characters - we have the most adorable married couple between Kenneth and Selena and the love square of the other characters... I don't really want to get into the story too much XD

Acting/Cast: Initially I watched this for Kenneth and Selena as they are one of my favourite actors in HK right now. This was actually my first time seeing them play a couple and OMG their chemistry is off the charts! I will always ship this couple from now on and hope to see them together in more dramas. I've always had a little crush on Kenneth ever since seeing him in "To Grow With Love" but he always played the minor roles. I am so happy that he finally has his and TVB are now promoting him like crazy. I've also always liked Selena and hope to see her in more dramas... she isn't in much compared to others which is a pity T_T Another character that really stood out to me was Raymond... this was the first time I ever took notice of him in dramas as I think he played his role really well. The rest of the cast did a great job too! I was actually really pleased with the casting of this drama. I think the cast really brought out the best in this drama...

Music: I guess the theme song was quite fitting... although I usually just skipped through it because I hate how they put prominent scenes in there which ruins the show because you know what will happen...

Rewatch Value: I really enjoyed watching the scenes between Kenneth and Selena. I love how sweet and supportive Selena is to him, and how loving and caring Kenneth is to her. Their trust i each other is everything and every time I see them on screen together I can't help but smile. They are truly too adorable! I wouldn't mind watching their scenes over and over - creepy much? XD

Overall: I really enjoyed this drama mostly because of Kenneth and Selena <3 There was nothing special with the story but I did like how the cases were all solved fairly quickly and not dragged on and on. I also liked how it was more comical then serious even though it wasn't a comedy and more of a drama. I actually liked the overall story and thought the pacing was really well done. I don't feel like there was any drag during the beginning or any rushing towards the end like usual TVB dramas. I also loved the ending.
