Overview

The Seasons was a drama series that aired on Hong Kong TV station TVB from 1987 to 1988 as part of the main program Enjoy Yourself Tonight. The show consisted of 389 episodes, each lasting 15 minutes, which was a rarity in Hong Kong television drama programs at the time. The series followed three generations of a middle-class family in Hong Kong as they navigated various issues, including broken marriages, rocky relationships, failing businesses, and past struggles. The episodes were notably brief, with each one ending in the same shot: a flower being tossed into the water. The series was shown as a section of Enjoy Yourself Tonight, and its short episode length was unusual for a drama series in Hong Kong. The show featured a cast including Pik-Wan Tang, Helena Law, Meg Lam, and Fung Kwok.
