Subsequently, the top ancient puppet dramas " Everlasting Night Galaxy " and " Pearl Curtain and Jade Curtain " were respectively announced to be broadcast on the same day, forming a "battle" between Yu Shuxin and Zhao Lusi.

Ancient puppet dramas take turns to release new ones 95 "Fight"

As an important branch of the film and television drama market, ancient puppet dramas have experienced ups and downs in recent years, but they have always been the focus of competition among major platforms. After all, they are attracting investment and attracting new customers ( To attract new members to the platform) and the results in terms of playback volume have been good.

According to Maoyan Professional Edition data, on October 31st, the real-time effective daily broadcast list across the entire network was " Splendid Peace ", followed by " Dream Return ", "Alley People" and "Spring Flower Flame". The weekly list of Detawen TV drama prosperity index also shows that the first place is "Splendid Tranquility", followed by "Spring Flowers" and " Seven Nights of Snow ". Although

ranks high, it seems that there is not as much splash as . , such as "Seven Nights of Snow" starring Li Qin and Zeng Shunxi, was considered to have a slow plot rhythm, weak character creation, rough special effects presentation, and too slow action speed. Judging from the response, "Seven Nights of Snow" obviously cannot be called a hit.

On the other side, Guo Jingming's "The Dream Returns" originally wanted to rely on the so-called visual aesthetics to make an appearance, but what it presented was a scene that looked gorgeous but was actually empty and lifeless. The performances of the characters in the play were also poor. Appear dull. The main line of the story is that the Monster Hunting Team of the Monster Hunting Department forms a team to catch monsters. However, the plot is loose and lengthy, and the love push and pull, and the war of words are overwhelming. Only one monster is caught in four or five episodes, and the origin and process of clues to solve the case are basically invisible.

What is even more speechless is that the heads of the characters in the drama will suddenly become larger, as if the big head special effects have been added. Well, if the actor can't act, then it will be presented through special effects. It doesn't matter whether it is appropriate or not, or whether it will make the audience laugh.

Big head special effects of "The Return of the Dream"

The No. 1 "Splendid Peace", which had high hopes, actually also suffered from "misfires". What fans of ancient puppet dramas value most is the sense of camaraderie between the male and female protagonists in the drama, but the interaction between Zhang Wanyi and Ren Min conveyed a strong sense of alienation, both in the drama and in reality. More importantly, this is Zhang Wanyi's third ancient puppet show this year, and it has almost the same style and performance mode. For ordinary audiences, it is inevitable to feel aesthetic fatigue.

This year will end in two months, and the competition among major platforms for ancient puppet dramas is gradually becoming fiercer.

This week, Youku announced that "Pearl Curtain" starring Zhao Lusi and Liu Yuning will be released on November 1. Tencent Video also announced that "Eternal Night Star" starring Yu Shuxin and Ding Yuxi will also be broadcast on this day, forming two major 95 flower PK trends. At present, the number of reservations for "Pearl Curtain and Jade Curtain" has exceeded 5.17 million, and the number of reservations for "Eternal Night Galaxy" has exceeded 3.98 million.

"Eternal Night Galaxy" is produced by Stellar Gravity, which has previously produced "Canglan Jue". It incorporates fantasy, adventure and other elements under the framework of ancient puppets. The play is adapted from the novel "Black Lotus Strategy Manual" written by Bai Yu Zhai Diao Gong. It tells the story of Ling Miaomiao, a ghostly girl played by Yu Shuxin, who accidentally falls into the novel's mission system. In order to return to the real world, she must complete the missions assigned by the system. Together with Mu Sheng played by Ding Yuxi, Mu Yao played by Zhu Xudan, and Liu Fuyi played by Yang Shize, they catch and fight monsters to level up and gradually resolve the grudges between humans and monsters.

The legendary costume drama "Pearl Curtain and Jade Curtain" is the first drama to be scheduled in the currently popular "Ancient Illusion + Business" track. The play is adapted from Tan Tianyin's novel "The Legend of Kunshan Jade". It tells the story of a pearl-fishing girl played by Zhao Lusi who escapes from the pearl field during the Dragon Boat Festival and joins the caravan of Yan Zijing, a merchant from the Western Regions played by Liu Yuning, as they go west to do business. However, she discovers her own destiny. The mystery of his life experience is even more involved in Yan Zijing’s revenge mystery. The story is about a woman who changed her name to Su Muzhe during the Dragon Boat Festival and bravely ventured into Yangzhou, relying on her wisdom and courage to eventually become a generation of businesswomen.

It seems that the popularity of ancient puppets will continue in the next two months.

There are many themes, but it is difficult to find the popular ones

In addition to ancient puppets, real-life themes, period dramas, criminal investigation dramas, and war dramas have their own highlights.

"Shangganling", which has an investment of more than 200 million, is one of the few war dramas currently available, and its latest ratings data has exceeded 3.362. Wang Gang, the screenwriter of the play, said that when he first created the play, he hoped that the play could satisfy audiences of different age groups. For example, adding scenes of the sacrifices of martyrs such as Qiu Shaoyun and Huang Jiguang was intended to present the stories in the textbooks through shocking visuals, including catching squirrels. , a plot like an apple, also hopes to resonate with older audiences.

A few days ago, the realistic-themed "Good Reunion" was launched. The drama stars Bai Baihe, Li Chun, and Wang Yuwen. Judging from the direction of the plot, the overall structure is warm realism, telling the story of today's young people's family life and workplace. The hard work and struggle after encountering setbacks. Judging from the audience's evaluation, Bai Baihe's acting skills are still online, but as a supporting actor, Chen He was criticized for being too exaggerated. As for the plot, some viewers commented that the series wanted to be close to real life, but it was still an elitist narrative, which was difficult for the audience to resonate with.

As the latest suspense drama of Youku's "White Night Theater" after " Snow Maze ", "Black and White" not only has a good story, but also has a lot of cast members. The story of Yang Xuwen, the hit series "The Tang Dynasty", tells the story of a young and energetic young policeman and an old policeman who partnered up. In the process of solving each case, the two went from being dissatisfied with each other to becoming the best partners in the end.

However, "Black and White" follows the routine of a traditional criminal investigation drama. It promotes the plot through a series of cases, including the reappearance of the serial killer, the confrontation between the two evil forces in the town, and the righteous old man. The police suddenly took off their police uniforms... But perhaps because there are so many new dramas recently, this drama has not received much attention. As the second male lead in the play, Tian Yu, who has always presented humorous scenes in film and television dramas, plays a different old policeman this time. He seems to be slippery and unruly, but he has his own persistence and belief. Tian Yu used his relaxed performance to make this character exude a sense of life and a real texture. In this comparison, the performance of Yang Xuwen, the male lead, seems a bit difficult. In addition, the character's personality is not likable. Zhonglang will become "Zhonglang Jian" and the main character is not likable. This may be the reason why the show does not attract much attention. reason.

The just-launched "Alley People" reflects the changes and development of the big era through the fate of small people. Different from the current stories that emphasize strong plots and strong reversals, "Alley People" continues the slow rhythm of the noon sun. In the first few episodes of the premiere, there are almost no scenes of strong conflicts. It uses the flow of life to connect Zhuang and Lin. The story of the family is told eloquently, and the period-feeling service and neighborliness in the play evoked many people's memories.

The only thing you need to worry about is that the early scenes are mainly supported by a few Mesozoic actors and a few cute little actors. The subsequent plot will focus on future generations. There is obviously a question mark whether Fan Chengcheng, Guan Xiaotong, Wang Anyu, etc. can continue to support the story. .

To sum up in one sentence, as the end of the year approaches, the drama market suddenly becomes a lot more lively, and major platforms are working hard to achieve a successful harvest at the end of the year. However, blockbusters are often hard to come by. Judging from the currently aired dramas, it may be difficult to say which drama can achieve the same level of popularity as "Horse".
