The two major dramas "If Running Is My Life" and "South and North" at the beginning of the year gave Chinese dramas a good start.
followed " Qing Yu Nian 2", " Mo Yu Yun Jian ", " The Story of Roses " one after another. The good dramas came one after another. The audience watched this and that, and there was no time for dramas.
Time comes to the second half of the year.
Two dark horse dramas appeared in the Chinese drama market in July.
One is a criminal investigation suspense drama " misplaced ", and the other is a costume detective drama "Tang Dynasty Strange Stories: Journey to the West". Although the two dramas have different themes, the genres "come from the same family" and are full of mystery. The plot is too exciting to watch.
Now, August has just begun, and the Chinese drama market has welcomed another popular player.
The urban family drama "The Little Couple " grandly launched by CCTV has won the first place in the national ratings and its popularity is rising. It seems that, The Chinese drama market in August will be dominated by this CCTV drama!
An emotionally stable couple, the plot is too real
"Little Couple" tells the story of Zhou Quan ( Guo Jingfei ) who encountered a workplace crisis in middle age and was forced to become a full-time father.
And his wife Che Li ( Yin Tao ) became popular all over the Internet overnight because of the novels she wrote in her spare time, and her career reached its peak.
In order to sort out his mood before setting off, Zhou Quan and Che Li decided to "swap their identities" after discussing it.
Today's urban family dramas are not easy to film, because the audience is already tired of all kinds of bloody plots, but I didn't expect that "Little Couple" would take a new approach and control me for 4 episodes from the beginning, and even more after watching Gotta be obsessed.
As the plot develops in depth, I found that there are two major highlights in the drama that made me deeply attracted to it.
The first highlight: an emotionally stable couple.
The most important thing for an urban family drama is to have fireworks. The story content of the drama "Little Couple" is really surprising.
When Zhou Quan lost his job, his wife Che Li did not blame him for not being motivated. Instead, after discussing with him, he swapped identities and Zhou Quan became a full-time father. Che Li went out to make money to support the family.
While talking to each other, Zhou Quan also seriously reflected on how little time he spent with his children as a father, saying that he would cultivate his son's independent personality in the coming time.
Zhou Quan, who had a big quarrel with his wife after his son was injured due to his avatar, will seriously apologize to his wife after calming down, while Che Li will also reflect on her excessive words at the time.
To be honest, such emotionally stable couples are a rare breed in domestic dramas!
In life, both husband and wife attach great importance to the education and growth of their children. If they find that their son is being spoiled by his grandmother, they will stop the loss immediately.
guides the children on the right track without erasing the contribution of grandma. Although there are occasional quarrels, they can reflect on themselves in time. Such an ordinary and down-to-earth life is so satisfying.
The second highlight: a real middle-aged social animal.
It is said that when people reach middle age, they will face an embarrassing period in their careers. If they fail to succeed, they may easily face being laid off. As a technical backbone,
was fired by the company even though he was still a team leader. He was obviously only one step away from being promoted, but a leader was parachuted in and asked employees to work overtime every day.
I was misunderstood to be lazy at work, my boss was "wearing small shoes", and my colleagues made small reports to grab credit. I don't know how many people resonated with the comprehensive workplace life.
Watching Zhou Quan regain his confidence and start looking for a job but hitting obstacles everywhere, all kinds of feelings came to his mind.
I can only say that the drama "Little Couple" is so realistic.
Whether it is family life, getting along with a couple, or the overt and secret struggles in the workplace, "Little Couple" uses delicate writing to resonate with the audience in all aspects.
This drama is quite interesting.
Strong leading actors, veteran actors join
In addition to the interesting plot, the lineup of "Little Couple" is even more rare. Each actor and character achieve each other, bringing a wonderful show to the audience character group portrait play.
ranks first, Xu Di .
The car mother played by veteran drama star Xu Di in the new drama is both annoying and pitiful.
The original car mother seemed to have a rebuttal personality. Because Zhou Quan was unemployed at home, she always disliked him. Every time she and Zhou Quan quarreled about their children's education, it made people suffocate.
However, the car mother also provides many laughs for this drama.
started a "little red flower war" with Zhou Quan. When she saw that the other party deliberately lost the building block competition in order to please the children, she poked her head out from behind the sofa and scolded Zhou Quan for being shameless. Her angry expression was really funny. .
But after watching the whole drama now, what impressed me the most was that Che’s mother and her friends told her inner pain. When she talked about the sad part, her voice was choked with a long sigh of relief, and the sadness of the characters was vividly portrayed.
The performance of an experienced actor has a strong sense of immersion.
is second, Guo Jingfei.
Guo Jingfei's acting skills in the field of urban family dramas are unparalleled, and his down-to-earth performances make every little character come to life.
was talking about his embarrassing behavior during the interview at the dinner table. His regret was palpable, and he let out a "tsk" mid-sentence, which was very life-like.
Seeing that his son had broken his mother-in-law's heart, Zhou Quan took his son to the kitchen to make Che's mother happy. Hearing Che's mother's moved cries, Zhou Quan walked out of the kitchen to lighten the mood, and laughed arrogantly and said that Che's mother had fallen into his trick.
's hearty laughter not only alleviated the sad atmosphere, but also gave the plot a layer of warmth. Guo Jingfei's performance was so down-to-earth.
The third place is Yin Tao.
Yin Tao is so beautiful in the play, with thick black hair and a quiet and elegant temperament. She looks like a literary and artistic female writer, and her character is straight forward.
During the family game segment, Yin Tao also had no image baggage at all. In order to make Che's mother laugh, she played Che Li, who pouted her lips to match each other's eyes. Her quirky and funny expression would make anyone laugh out loud.
When talking about her family situation with her friends, Che Li's face was full of anxiety and helplessness. She wanted to focus on her family and career, but it was difficult to reconcile various conflicts at the same time. The entangled state was so contagious.
ranked fourth, Han Tongsheng.
Father Zhou, played by veteran actor Han Tongsheng, has not yet made his official debut, but even if there are not many scenes, he has provided many famous scenes.
When a retired friend bought a camera, he was embarrassed, so Zhou’s father also quickly placed an order for a digital camera.
showed off to his wife, and when he proudly wanted to take pictures of her but didn't know how to use them, the embarrassed father Zhou showed his "dead duck's tough mouth" vividly.
When Zhou’s mother saw everything in her eyes, Zhou’s father waved away angrily. The appearance of breaking his guard vividly portrayed a face-loving old man. I am so looking forward to Han Tongsheng’s wonderful performances in the future.
ranks fifth, Xiaoshenyang .
As soon as Guan Jun, played by Xiao Shenyang, appears, people can't help but laugh.
is obviously a company boss, but he wears sleeves and an apron and plays with flowers and plants. When Zhou Quan, who came for the interview, said that he would quarrel with the boss, he raised his head in surprise, and his incredible eyes filled the funny atmosphere.
When I saw Guan Jun taking out a microphone in the car and starting to sing loudly, I almost laughed out loud. The scene where he and Zhou Quan were singing back and forth was really exciting.
The appearance of Xiao Shenyang makes the drama "Little Couple" more interesting.
At the same time, Qi Xi, Yue Hong, Zhang Yunlong and other powerful actors all performed exquisitely and captivatingly in the play. It can be seen that the director's vision is online and the actors' acting skills are strong, which constitutes an urban group portrait.
Conclusion

There are no vicious couples turning against each other, nor are there typical bully parents-in-law. The family's life is so happy and perfect that it is fascinating.
Of course, this drama is not perfect. After all, the plot and characters are so perfect that it is incredible, and some scenes also reflect the director’s stereotypes of some people.
But overall, "Little Couple" has an online family atmosphere, a full sense of down-to-earth life, and the joyful and funny content makes it extremely comfortable to watch after a tiring day.
believes that as long as the show maintains a high level, it will have a chance to become the king of summer dramas.
