Why are American TV series updated every week? It's because they really film one episode before releasing it. Basically, they film one episode a week. When major national holidays like Halloween, Christmas, etc., they stop filming; but as for domestic TV dramas, they basically film the entire series. After filming, show it again. Play one or two episodes every day to attract the audience's attention. It would not be impossible if domestic TV dramas updated one episode a week like American dramas, but they would also have to have the level and persistence of American dramas.
The first American TV series I watched was "Friends", which lasted for ten seasons and was filmed for ten years. This TV series carries the memories of most people born in the 1980s. Over the past ten years, we have watched the characters in it grow from young to wrinkled, and watched each of them grow from being single to having a significant other. How many people had heated discussions about their favorite characters in the show after watching an episode? How many people followed Jennifer Aniston because they liked Rachel, and whether they felt deep regret when she got married to Brad Pitt. And Matt LeBlanc, who plays Joey, why didn’t he have much fun in the later stages?
It can be said that following American TV series is a thing that reveals your age, but why is it so popular and praised? I think there are a few points:
1. The actors are very serious and devoted, not impetuous. The level of commitment of the actors is unmatched by domestic actors. Domestic actors pay more attention to reputation and whether they can become famous instantly. With such a long tug of war and a lot of investment of youth, they will feel that it is a waste of time and it would be better to make a good movie quickly.
2. The directors and screenwriters are very careful, not just for ratings. The most impressive character in "The Big Bang Theory" should be "Sheldon" played by Jim Parsons. How did the Frankenstein geek with almost zero emotional intelligence become so popular? Just look at the director lineup and you will know. Multi-professional terminology and professional knowledge are not available casually. The director and screenwriters themselves are science geeks, so they came up with a Sheldon.
3. If domestic actors can concentrate on acting and directors can devote more energy to the drama, it will be feasible for domestic dramas to be updated once a week. However, there are too many bubble dramas in China, and it is really difficult to stand out.
Finally, I would like to recommend again the domestic animation "Hua Jiang Hu" that I have been following for several years. The first thing I watched was the series "Bad Guys", which has two seasons in one series. It mainly tells the story of the late Tang Dynasty, when King Liang usurped the throne, and various religions and sects secretly supported party members. With the birth of Li Xingyun, the orphan of the Li family in the Tang Dynasty, The secret of finding the Longquan Sword and unlocking the Longquan treasure has surfaced. The picture below shows the characters in the play, who are alluring the country and the city. Have you ever been shocked by their beauty?
There is also the opening line of "Spiritual Master" in the Jianghu series: "There are two kinds of people in the world, one kind works for the living, and the other kind works for the dead. These people we They are called spiritual disciples, and the deceased who instructs them to do things is the spiritual master. "Have you ever wondered what a spiritual master is? Take a look and you will know the answer.
"The cup will never stop", which is currently airing, "the cup will never stop before the people are finished". It was a little confusing when I first started watching it, but it became more and more exciting as it went on.
Is there anyone who has watched the Jianghu series and liked it like me? Therefore, it is not that there is no market for domestic TV series to be released every week, it mainly needs to be careful.
