The Spring Festival will be celebrated in less than a month. Currently, there are many CCTV Spring Festival Gala rehearsals. Not to be outdone, major TV stations have also begun to enter the rehearsal phase of the program.
A clip from the sketch rehearsal of the Anhui Satellite TV Spring Festival Gala was recently posted on the Internet. Judging from the sketch set, there is a car parked at the scene, with a table in front of it, as well as big trees, doors, and windows. The story probably takes place in the yard. .
The characters in the sketch are also very simple. A pair of young people are supporting an old man, and a man who looks like an elder points at a middle-aged man angrily. However, he did not expect that the person being pointed at performed a "subject" three".
The person who danced "Subject Three" is none other than sketch actor Song Xiaofeng. "Subject Three" has become a very popular meme on the Internet recently, with exaggerated movements and magical dance steps, similar to the earthy "social shake".
"Subject Three" became a hit on the Internet. Haidilao clerks were "very popular" because they could dance it. Zhang Yi was also asked to dance this dance during his road show. However, many netizens thought it was too earthy and it was too boring to be on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. It's too much.
But I didn’t expect that Anhui Satellite TV was not the only one to perform “Subject Three” at the Spring Festival Gala. It would be very embarrassing for this kind of Internet meme to be moved to the Spring Festival Gala. So they all shouted to CCTV, saying that if CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala also performed “Subject Three”, it would be really embarrassing. I stopped watching.
I don’t blame netizens for not accepting it. In the past, Spring Festival Gala skits were used to create memes, but now the Spring Festival Gala skits are becoming more and more boring. They either directly carry Internet hot memes, or are boring and educational, which makes people miss the past Spring Festival Gala. Many of the "popular memes" created will never go out of style.
In the 1996 "Working Adventures", Zhao Lirong's sentence "One hundred and eighty glasses of palace jade wine" has been passed down to this day and has become a code to identify whether it is one of our own.
Previously, netizens pretending to be from the north made comments online with ulterior motives. Netizens who had difficulty distinguishing between true and false directly took out the first half of the sentence and asked him to pick up the second half. As a result, the other person claimed that he was too old and did not understand young people. Damn it, it was completely exposed right now.
The 1999 "Veteran Goes Out" was Zhao Lirong's last Spring Festival Gala skit before she was alive. Her London accent with Tangshan accent was impressive. In it, the magical English of "come is come, go is go, nod yes and shake no", which was recently praised by netizens As the background music for JJ Lin's dance, the timing is very accurate.
In 2000, Zhao Benshan and Song Dandan, the old partners, starred in "The Hourly Worker". In the movie, "Anyone who chats with me for another ten yuan" will now blurt out when he begs the other party to chat with him. "It hurts his self-esteem" is now used by many netizens to make fun of themselves. if.
In 2003, Gao Xiumin starred in "Heart Disease" for the last time in the Spring Festival Gala before she and Zhao Benshan broke up. In the skit, Fan Wei covered his chest and said, "My heart is so cold." It is now used to express that he is very disappointed. Feel.
In 2006, Zhao Benshan and Song Dandan starred in "Speaking of Things", which is the second part of the "White Clouds and Black Soil" series. Song Dandan used four four-character words in succession, "Gongs and drums are noisy, firecrackers are blasting, red flags are waving, and there are huge crowds of people." The book signing was very popular, and the sentence in it was "floating". Nowadays, many celebrities who have become famous and let themselves go will be evaluated in this way.
In 2007, "Planning" by Zhao Benshan and Song Dandan continued the "White Clouds and Black Soil" series. Song Dandan's line "The rooster that lays eggs, the fighter among the roosters, oh yeah" was so out of the ordinary that it can be said to be a household name.
In 2009, Zhao Benshan succeeded in making his apprentice Xiao Shenyang famous overnight with "Not Short of Money". In the sketch, "when people are alive, money is gone" and "a day goes by when you close your eyes, and a lifetime goes by when you close your eyes". It is popular, and it is somewhat related to the philosophy of life, but this is completely different from the educational significance reflected in the Spring Festival Gala sketch later.
"My Deskmate" in 2011 was Zhao Benshan's last appearance on the Spring Festival Gala stage. He brought Xiao Shenyang and Wang Xiaoli to a hasty ending. Although he did not appear in the circle in previous years, fortunately, the sketch "Seventy-eight words are omitted here" still won The audience laughed.
In 2013, Chang Yuan starred in "Little Things in the Big City". He wore a bright suit, raised his orchid fingers, and played the role of "The Beautiful Man on the Sixth Floor" with a "sissy" image. Although this title is not very famous, but Nowadays, people call themselves by the region plus the name of the star, such as "Hunan Liu Yifei", which can be regarded as the evolution of this meme.
In 2014, "To Help or Not to Help" starring Shen Teng and Ma Li may have been the dividing line between Spring Festival Gala sketches. Since then, it has been worse than the previous one, with bad Internet memes, common homophonic memes, and fried rice. All consumed the audience's enthusiasm.
The success of "Help or Not" is inseparable from Zhao Benshan's careful guidance. He put forward many suggestions for deletion and revision. The sketch successfully used the social hot topic of an old man falling and not being helped. The old lady played by Ma Li said after falling. The line "It's already this time, do you still compare to the three-meter-two-meter Zhen'er, does it make sense?" is very impressive.
But since then, the Spring Festival Gala skits have completely gone downhill. In recent years, there have been almost no popular memes outside the circle. Programs like "First Meeting Photo Studio" have been scolded. They have gone from creating their own memes to copying Internet hot memes. Gee, can the Spring Festival Gala continue its former glory?
