Square Pegs was the runaway success of 2003, commanding a viewership of 3.5 million or roughly half of Hong Kong’s population during the last week of its broadcast, and breaking TVB's ten-year ratings record. It also went on to win four awards for its two lead actors in the TVB 36th Anniversary Awards, and made both Roger Kwok and Jessica Hsuan household names in the territory. The story itself is innocuously simple, with most of the action happening at the beginning and the end of the series. Written as a character-centric piece, it depended largely on the main cast to carry the entire show, lock, stock and barrel on their shoulders.
