On March 9, the TV series " thank you for warming me " premiered in a single episode on Yangba and was updated in episode 5 on Tencent Video. Based on the content of the plot that has been launched so far, the narrative of this TV series is too streamlined, and it is obviously not enough to attract the audience with its story. In terms of acting skills, Li Randi is indeed a plus point for the play. In terms of ratings, the show will not perform well in the future.
The plot synopsis of this TV series has made the main story clear in advance. After the male and female protagonists fell in love, the male protagonist fell ill, and the heroine never left to take care of the male protagonist. This is of course a very valuable main line. The relationship between male and female friends, and between husband and wife, can be touching. However, it is precisely because of the early appearance of this main story line that the start of this TV series was too dull.
In the plot of episode 5 of "Thank You for Warming Me", the male protagonist was officially shown playing football and wrestling, and in the trailer of episode 9, it was revealed that the male protagonist was unable to hold things. Apparently, the story reaches its "situation moment" too late. It has only 24 episodes of plot, and starting from the 9th episode, it really enters the moment when problems arise. This results in that the entire first 9 episodes have too few effective scenes.
A good-looking TV series needs to have an obvious story. Not only is the big plot interesting, but the small plots can also be followed. The current problem of "Thank You for Warming Me" is that the main plot is only one: the male and female protagonists are very affectionate. What about the subplot? This kind of love is repeated infinitely, and almost all the scenes are based on the repeated state. This is terrible. The audience can even throw away the content of the first 8 episodes and summarize it as "they are very loving".
TV series are ultimately a form of artistic entertainment that tells stories. If the first 8 episodes of a drama can be so simply and crudely ignored by the audience, then it is actually seriously lacking in storytelling. The screenwriter's problem in this play is to stretch a story that can be told in 90 minutes into the length of a TV series. Therefore, it is inevitable to put in more water.
In fact, if this TV series paid a little attention to narrative techniques, it would not be so bland. In terms of specific narrative techniques, the biggest problem in "Thank You for Warming Me" is that it is told in a straight and flowing way. Everyone should be familiar with the term "running account". I guess when most of you wrote narratives in junior high school, you would have been criticized by the Chinese teacher for being too simplistic. Telling stories, obviously there are storytelling skills. What this TV series lacks is this kind of skill.
For example, in the beginning of this TV series, if you want to show the relationship and background of the male protagonist’s family, and if you want to show the relationship and background of the female protagonist’s family, you can avoid the running account narrative and use the unique narrative of the TV series. Presented in a storytelling way. If the story were told in a different way, the start of this TV series would be much better. The current status of this TV series is that it is peaceful.
From a script level, this kind of work should not be called a TV drama script, but should be called a TV variety show documentary. The dull start of the play will definitely turn off a large number of viewers. Judging from the real-time ratings data of Kuyun, the show did not have a good start in the central eight. I feel that the subsequent ratings of this drama may fall below 1%, hitting a recent low in the Central Eighth Television.
Of course, "Thank You for Warming Me" is not without its merits. At least, Li Randi's acting skills in this drama are interesting. For example, when the male and female protagonists are at home, the heroine's father suddenly appears. In that scene, Li Randi's acting ability is very good, showing the shyness and initiative of young women in the face of "sudden love". If it were a popular celebrity who wasn't very good at acting, this kind of dramatic tension wouldn't be possible. The difference between
and Li Landi's is that and Lin Yi's are different. For example, if the heroine's father shows off his muscles to the hero, this is a scene with subtext. Jiang Chao performed the subtext part very well. But Lin Yi couldn't take the role, and his subtext performance was weak.If this TV series had a male protagonist who could act, the effect would be better.
Generally speaking, the mutual affection between men and women in "Thank You for Warming Me" is valuable. However, this TV series lacks too much in terms of specific storytelling skills. The story size of a movie, Forcibly turning it into a TV series has caused a large-scale plot problem. Because the story is poor, the show's subsequent ratings and network broadcast numbers should not be good. For TV dramas, good screenwriters are so important. (Text/Ma Qingyun)
