The Little Nonyas

"The Little Nonyas" was the talk of the town when this TV series was broad casted a few months ago.

Where lies its appeal? the princess asked.

Was it the twist and turns of the show's plot? Was it the bitchy storyline that captivated the audience? Was it the glamorous cast that mesmerised the entire nation? or was it the nostalgic feeling of a beautiful lost culture brought back to life?

Well, the answer is yes and no....

Based on the princess' personal experience... the key to any successful dramas is to: keep it real but making it too good to be true..... Something that the audience can connect with but could never possibly do it.....

Some classic examples

Nigella Lawson
Everyone has cooked before (so they can connect with it). But to whip up a homecooked meal that is so delicious while maintaining the effortless, glamourous look is impossible.

Carrie Bradshaw
Everyone has difficult relationship issues. But to fall in and out of love with so many men and ended up with the first true love is also almost impossible.

Perhaps, the princess should apply this success formula into her own personal love life as well. To be someone who is real but almost unattainable.

And how to do it?

This is a secret i'll never tell.

You know u love me.
