Who "destroyed" "Talk Show 5"?

"A few internet jokes can win Xiaolu , and that's it for this season."

On August 30th, the fifth season of " Talk Show Conference " finally aired. Siwen is back, Na Ying , Zhou Xun joined, it looks like a much-anticipated look. However, as the talk show OG Xiaolu was eliminated by the new up master Lahong, the laughing leader Zhou Xun was scolded by netizens on the hot search. After only 2 episodes of the broadcast, the Douban score of "Talk Show 5" was only 5.4 points, a record low.

Some viewers blamed the sharp drop in the show's reputation on the unprofessionalism of the laughing leaders Zhou Xun and Na Ying. This is essentially a defect in the "Talk Show Conference" competition system.

"Talk Show 5" still uses the common method of shooting lights in variety shows. Contestants who get four lights can directly advance, and those who get 2 lights and 3 lights need to accept the challenges of the rest of the players to grab the wheat. After the PK is over, the one with the most number of times of the laughing leader will advance, and the audience will vote if there is a tie, and the one with the highest number of votes will advance. This kind of competition system rules will lead to the promotion of players or not, which is extremely dependent on the likes and dislikes and professionalism of the laughter leader.


It is obvious that as actors and singers, Zhou Xun and Na Ying are far from professional in talk shows. On the one hand, Zhou Xun and Na Ying were unable to quickly understand the irony of reality behind the well-designed jokes and jokes of the contestants due to the status of the superiors for many years and the high objective age.

The school violence in Xu Zhisheng's jokes, Meng Chuan bought a haunted house to settle in Shanghai, Tang Xiangyu studied hard to get rid of patriarchal... These real pain points are too far away from them, they may be able to perceive but only look down. The lack of empathy for the contestants' works by the laughing leaders makes the show shrouded in an awkward atmosphere.

and the laughing staff did not seem to realize that they were in control of the players' fate. Zhou Xun frequently forgot to shoot the lights, which led to the direct elimination of the deer and a major oolong; "good voice". When the action of shooting lights becomes a joke, the rules of the competition lose their credibility, and the gold content of the promotion quota is also reduced.


But in fact, the defects in the competition system can be made up through the resurrection mechanism, and the focus of the audience is still on the content. The

"Talk Show Conference" series has come to the fifth season, and there have been many overlaps in topic selection. On the one hand, there is the overlap of popular topics. In the third season, Yang Li and won a lot of attention with gender topics. In the fifth season, Xiaolu, Yan Yi, Yan Yue, and Bird Bird all chose this track. On the other hand, there are a lot of internal memes, Siwen and Cheng Lu divorced jokes, Hulan and Li Dan speculate together, Yang Mengen proposes to his girlfriend... These Xiaoguo internal The unique stalks between employees appear frequently, which is somewhat boring for ordinary audiences.

Are there any new topics? There are also, Xiaojia and Heideng speak out for the disabled, and Aunt Huang talks about chasing dreams in retirement... It's just that these works are more or less the meaning of standing in the center of the world and calling for love. The talk show is less sarcastic, less painful, less offensive, and full of positive energy. As a variety show for the public, content censorship is inevitable, and this is the inevitable fate of "Talk Show Conference".

But when the restrictions become more and the gains and losses become heavier, the players' performance will inevitably tend to be conservative. The old players keep repeating themselves, the talented and powerful new players are hard to come by, and there are frequent Internet "bad stalks", the audience who come with high expectations is naturally disappointed.

The slogan of "Talk Show 5" is "make everyone happy for five minutes", but for the audience it may be "happy" for five minutes and awkward for an hour.
