The last time I watched a variety show, I didn't even miss the extra updates, and it dates back to the original "Sister Lang".
If I remember correctly, the variety show seems to have been pioneered by the original "Lang Jie". At that time, because the show was so good and the audience couldn't get enough of it, they urged the program team to release all the leftover materials, which became an extra update.
Later, extra updates became a standard feature of almost all variety shows, but they were basically just for the duration and only satisfied the needs of fans to see their faces. Other viewers could not absorb much nutrition.
"Brilliant Garden" recently launched by Mango TV, not only the main film and the extra update are very exciting, it even made me forget about the extra update of "Sister Lang" this week.
"Brilliant Garden" is on the surface a variety show that teaches you how to grow flowers, but in fact it is a performance variety show.
is similar to other competition variety shows. They also find a few young actors to be permanent residents, and then have some veteran actors or mature actors as guests, but they only act but do not compete.
Zhang Songwen has lived in a rented bungalow in Shunyi, Beijing for 15 years. Over the past 15 years, he has built his own garden as a hobby. In fact, this garden has become a small salon for many actors to practice their acting skills.
Later, the landlord wanted to rebuild the bungalow into a two-story building, and Zhang Songwen had no choice but to move out, so he made a request to Mango TV, a dozen thatched cottages, hoping to find a new place for his garden. It was best not to leave. this village.
I had never heard of a first-line platform tailoring a variety show for an actor.
Zhang Songwen is very familiar with the villagers. When someone gets married, he will follow others. He has also become friends with the owner of the flower market.
is familiar with it not only because he has lived there for a long time, but more importantly, Zhang Songwen likes to get close to the lives of villagers, remains highly curious about the world around him, and uses this as a source of creation.
Zhang Songwen proposed a concept: creating experience.
To put it bluntly, I mean to get in touch with more different people, learn more about different lives, and learn more different skills, which will ultimately be used by me. The program
has aired three episodes so far, and there are probably more than a dozen episodes including additional episodes. In addition to his ability to tend the garden, Zhang Songwen also showed us his ability to bargain, communicate using radio, learn welding immediately, and calm an excited rooster immediately (not twist it off). neck).
It can be seen that the detail in "Hurry Up" in which he imitated the fish seller's hand washing is just the tip of the iceberg of his learning from life.
At Zhang Songwen's request, the young actors were also "forced" to get closer to the villagers' lives. They not only had to study their professional attire, but also interacted with them and even "dance" with them...
And the young actors every day After returning from this experience, Zhang Songwen will arrange small classes to let them restore the life of the villagers he has come into contact with.
In the past, I watched competition variety shows, and more often reality shows. I was basically not attracted to the performance part because they were all imitating famous works. The pearls and jade are in front, and it is difficult to surpass them.
The performance in "Brilliant Garden" really made me fascinated and moved.
Young actors who have escaped from the exaggerated plots and industrial saccharine of idol dramas finally began to learn how to control their performances in front of real story prototypes.
Another distinctive feature of "Brilliant Garden" that is different from other variety shows is that there is no script.
Zhang Songwen made it clear that if you set for me what to do in the first episode and what to do in the second episode, I will not do this variety show.
So we will see that the screenwriter, cameraman, and even the director can't figure out what Zhang Songwen plans to do next.
Be spontaneous and adapt to circumstances.
I ran into a sheep farmer on the road. He immediately stopped the car and struck up a conversation with him. In the end, he took away one or two hundred kilograms of sheep dung from him for free.
Na Ying came to visit the class, and before his butt even touched the chair, he was pulled onto a three-donkey jumping horse to explore the direction of the fireworks in the blinding night.
"The Brilliant Garden" should be able to satisfy the needs of viewers with different tastes.
It's interesting enough if you want to eat.
If you want to learn something, there is a vast amount of botany.
If you want to see other people's lives, the stories in the village are real and simple.
As far as my personal preference is concerned, I think it is much better-looking than "Longing for Life".
Finally, I would like to recommend a drama to everyone, also from Mango TV, called "River Rises".
But this time I was the hindsight. The show has finished. It will be aired in March. I just saw it.
Huang Zhizhong, Mei Ting, Jiang Wu, Zhang Guoqiang and Su Ke co-starred. The cast is good, the acting is good, and the story is also good.
talks about environmental protection, but you can also understand it as "the story in the municipal party committee compound". Not only can we see the struggles and responsibilities between municipal leaders, but we can also see how the Discipline Inspection Commission judges people. It is also very amusing. Because
has already finished airing, it is especially suitable for non-fan viewers who like to stock up first and watch later. Moreover, this drama is not long, only 24 episodes.
This drama is a comprehensive one, watch it immediately, otherwise it will be easy to forget.
come back and scold me if it doesn't look good.
