Introduction
" Annual Comedy Contest 2" has been on the hot search topic list of various platforms after the first issue aired, and Douban has also received continuous praise. It also gradually entered everyone's life. From the first episode, the performances in the show are very eye-catching, but because it is too bright, people will ignore or even turn a blind eye to the hidden worries behind its light.
- flight instructor, uncertain expectations -
looks at the "Annual Comedy Contest 2" official announcement instructor lineup, compared with the first season, there are changes but not much. First, the number of resident instructors was reduced from 5 to 4, and Ma Dong , Li Dan , Huang Bo , Yu Hewei , Xu Zheng no longer participated, and a flight instructor was added at the same time. The bit is Naying . With the lessons learned from the "Talk Show Conference 5" next door, many people are worried that Na Ying's appearance will affect the effect of the show, but from the first episode of the show, this kind of worry is a little too much. The addition of
Na Ying has added a female drama and perspective to the comedy on the basis of the first season. In addition to the wonderful performances of the actors, the comedy effect of the first season is the open and secret battle between the mentors. Ma Dong was in charge of controlling the field and fanning the flames, letting Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, and Yu Hewei step on each other, while Li Dan was joking aside. In the drama of the three people stepping on, Xu Zheng and Huang Bo both played the role of "bad guys" who bullied "honest man" Yu Hewei. The contestants on the stage competed for their performance skills, and the tutors off the stage showed their improvisational abilities. This combination shined in the first season, but it also received a lot of controversy because it was almost entirely male in terms of commenting and leading the creation of the team. The addition of
Na Ying has neutralized this controversy. She has the stupefaction of a silly eldest sister from the Northeast, and often does some unbelievable behaviors, embarrassing other male mentors, which greatly satisfies everyone's mentality of watching the fun. For example, when Yu Hewei politely said that her idol when she was young was Na Ying, she asked without restraint, which song would you sing for me, Yu Hewei had to sing it hard, and this kind of drama was between several male mentors It's not going to happen, which undoubtedly greatly enhances the show's comedic effect. What is more interesting about
is that she dares to express her character, so that other mentors can play tricks unscrupulously without worrying about her female identity. When Li Dan again and again cued out the "most hated person who pretends to be x", the stalk she left over more than ten years ago, the answer after many embarrassments turned into a laugh.
In terms of comedy, Na Ying is really unprofessional and can't comment on the performance. But her advantage is that as a woman, she can really provide a female perspective that was not available before. Especially after the one-man show "Goodbye", the female audience below the stage had tears in their eyes. Na Ying stood up and applauded and simply expressed that she was very moved and felt sorry for the actresses on the stage. This kind of empathy between women is any Men are irreplaceable.
Theoretically speaking, it is unlikely that a flight instructor will end up as a team leader, and although Li Dan is a comedian, the talk show and sketch can be said to be separated from each other, and it is unlikely that he will serve as a team leader. Does that mean that the original three-legged team battle mode will become two camps? If that's the case, it's a pity for the show and the creation of the players.
Xu Zheng, whether as an actor or director, has senior performance and creative experience, plus he has been deeply involved in comedy, whether participating in performance or directing the creation, it is a very rare experience for the players and the audience. The work "Father's Funeral", which was popular in the last season, was created by the "Thirteen Generation Masters" led by him. This season, a creative instructor like him is missing, and it is not a substitute for a flight instructor who only comes for a few issues.
In addition, Xu Zheng has comedy resources and his status as a comedy film director, which is also an opportunity for many young comedians to be seen. In the last season, Xu Zheng sent a cooperation invitation to the screenwriter Liu Beast to become a member of his film screenwriting team. Here are several other mentorsimpossible. I don't know if the flying guests at the back have such abilities.
- Lots of content, but remember who? -
It is worth noting that most of the programs in the second season are new faces, which probably stems from the fact that Miwei Media is a content production company, and its main focus is on program production, and does not use famous actors as its own resources. to operate. Therefore, the audience also pays more attention to the content and form of comedy:
has "Tiger Father and No Dog Son" which focuses on the influence of parents' behavior on children. The inspiration for the three-person rehearsal came from the real experience of one of the actors as a teacher. The laughing point is that the shortcomings of the child can be seen from the parents;
"Breakthrough" is a nonsensical comedy, and the two actors who are not in tune are the biggest attraction;
The most eye-catching thing is "National Games", This form is called black out. It has no plot and no lines. It mainly relies on the physical performance of the actors to create expectations for the audience, and then quickly and continuously form reversals to create comedy effects;
"Fragility in the Night" is a The most classic sketch play method - twists and turns, at the same time, the actors show their true feelings in the face of the dark, and the setting of a face is changed as soon as the light is on. The difficulty of the performance is very high, and it needs to be negative and optimistic. Switch freely between extreme emotions, and the actors in the play have a very good grasp;
"Goodbye" is a one-man show, with a trio of writers and directors, telling the inner struggle of a girl who lives alone after her lovelorn, the actors must show their psychological state through a person's performance ;
"Rehearsal Crazy Cloud" captured all the audience with a highly resonant online meeting, and once again presented the comedy effect of "sound and picture out of sync" through the tacit performance of the actors.
The first point of a good comedy is to be funny, and the deeper level is to laugh with tears and be thought-provoking. There is no doubt that the vast majority of works do this very well. However, in addition to the excellent works of Xinxi, there was a little concern about the characters and states of the players on the stage. The reason why
can make it out of the circle in the first season is that good-looking works are essential, but the diverse characters of the players are also a highlight. Jiang Long who has been working very hard, Zhang Chi who is cheap, Zhang Chi, Shi Ce Wang Hao who has a sense of CP but does not affect the funny, the three brothers with little tendons, the three dogs who shed blood...but From the beginning of this season, the differences between the players have been smoothed out, and everyone in their place seems to be in a very high state, and this state lasted for the entire period.
wondered if the director team consciously chose the " people are crazy " contestants when casting roles, so some less outgoing and crazy actors were filtered out. From the perspective of program production, fast-paced, dense laughter, and excitement are the means to attract audiences to watch, but in the end of the variety show, the ability to tell a story is still the competition, and the bearer of the story is the contestants. In the first broadcast, the convergence of the players' personalities will gradually become a hidden danger, causing the audience to experience aesthetic fatigue. After six shows, I can remember the performances of the contestants, but not the contestants.
If the "homonymous stalk" is a kind of laziness and dwarfing of comedy creation, then the uncertainty, repetition, and convergence in "Annual Comedy Contest 2" are, in some respects, accelerating the rise of sketch. A hidden danger of the time when the comedy form hits a bottleneck. Ancient and modern, all over the world, no matter what form, the classic comedy works that are really left must be created after having a deep understanding and observation of life, and are presented by actors who also have their own unique lives for life. As an era that needs laughter, it is natural to hope that such comedy programs can go further.
