1. A liquid crystal display panel, comprising:
an array substrate, comprising:
a plurality of gate lines disposed in parallel;
a plurality of common lines parallel to the gate lines; and
a plurality of data lines perpendicular to the gate lines, wherein the gate lines, the common lines, and the data lines define a plurality of subpixels;
wherein each one of the subpixels is defined by two common lines, one gate line located between the two common lines, and two data lines;
a plurality of TFTs, wherein one of the TFTs is electrically connecting to one of the gate lines;
an electrode electrically connecting to the one of the TFTs, wherein the electrode includes:
a first electrode portion;
a second electrode portion; and
a first connection electrode portion electrically connected the first electrode portion and the second electrode portion so that at least one major slit is formed between the first electrode portion and the second electrode portion, wherein the first connection electrode portion and the one of the gate lines do not overlap;
an opposite substrate disposed opposite to the array substrate; and
a liquid crystal layer disposed between the array substrate and the opposite substrate.
