Jackie Chan-produced web drama The Sleuth of Ming Dynasty has released its first teaser, and stars Guan Hong, Fu Mengbo and Liu Yaoyuan as a crime-solving trio in ancient China. If nothing else, at least the action sequences should be good.
The drama will begin streaming on iQiyi on April 1st.
My pick for March: The Controllers (if it airs it didn’t). Check back for updates on the first of each month.
