About Be My Guest
Be My Guest is a Hong Kong interview series produced by Television Broadcasts Limited that centers on relaxed, longform conversations with notable figures from entertainment, politics and business. Stephen Chan Chi Wan, who served as TVB's general manager, hosts the program and steers each episode toward candid recollections, career highlights and opinions on industry trends. The show originally aired on TVB Lifestyle Channel on TVB Pay Vision and reached additional viewers through screenings on certain Cathay Pacific flights. TVB released VCDs, DVDs and companion books tied to the series, and producers also staged live events and ball shows connected to the program that were not issued commercially. Each installment mixes anecdote and work insight.
Produced by TVB, the format was revived for TVB Pay Vision's Lifestyle Channel in 2006 and was later distributed on VCD and DVD, while companion books extended the brand. Select episodes were screened on Cathay Pacific flights, widening its audience.
There are no widely reported major international awards or high profile nominations connected to Be My Guest. Recognition for the series has been mainly regional, tied to TVB's programming slate and its appeal among viewers who follow Hong Kong media personalities, rather than prize circuits abroad or film festival attention.
While not a global phenomenon, the show left a mark in Hong Kong broadcasting by normalizing in depth personality interviews on mainstream television. Its host's standing at TVB lent interviews extra industry weight, and the program's live stage editions and inflight screenings helped it reach beyond conventional TV audiences regionally.
Critical metrics are sparse and online ratings appear limited, reflecting a modest profile outside Hong Kong. The series focuses on conversational, career focused interviews that highlight personal routines, professional decision making and media industry dynamics, appealing to viewers interested in insider perspectives rather than fast paced entertainment, and archival value.
