2nd = Shhhh! Chinese - Rated - 7 - So much potential if it was allowed
( 5 Series + 2 Films) - 3 = 4/7 ~ 57% ~~ 5.7+ (8.3) =14/20x10=7
3rd = Thai - Rated - 6.5 - Hit or Miss. It's strength is it's variety
(35 Series + 0 Films) -16 = 19/35 - 54% ~~ 5.4 + (7.6) = 13/20 x 10 = 6.5
4th = Taiwanese - Rated - 6.4 - Genuinely see it improving though
