The current short drama has become a pastime for the audience with its short and concise, fast-paced narrative method and interesting setting. And recently a small short drama "Detective Catching Horses" suspense reasoning + comedy burst the way successfully out of the circle, in a number of film and television dramas stand out, trance let people have a feeling of watching "Never Expected".
1. The pace is bright
"Detective Catching Horses" does not have popular actors and sophisticated production teams, on the contrary, the actors are ordinary people, and the "double male protagonist" setting of a fat and a thin one is very recognizable, which makes people remember the characteristics of the two detectives at once.
At the same time, each episode of this drama is only eight or nine minutes long, the rhythm is bright, the plot is compact but constantly reversed. This kind of time is very in line with the current audience's habit of chasing dramas, brushing a short video time can watch an episode of content, a meal time to chase the entire drama, do not need to spend too much time, do not take brain power, there is no dog blood love bridge section let the audience scratch their hearts and scratch their livers, the audience only needs to use a very relaxed and happy mood to chase the entire drama.
The whole drama unfolds with two detectives investigating the case, but the plot does not revolve around the suspense reasoning process, but opens the audience's brain in a relaxed and playful way, presenting the audience with a variety of funny horse-catching scenes. For example, there are many bridges in the play that pay tribute to classic film and television dramas, and there are also many popular elements at present. "Ultraman", "Invitation Code", "Infernal Affairs", etc.
At first, the audience may not be accustomed to this way of acting, but after two more episodes, they become more and more up, and begin to admire the screenwriter's brain hole. For example, in the play, the two look for the missing comic author, crossing into the comic where one becomes a frog and the other becomes a pig, the plot brain hole is simply not too big, and at the same time it is particularly funny.
In addition, each episode will give the audience a reversal, such as the schizophrenic scene is even more reversed and cannot be stopped, one link after another.
From the dog blood derailment war to the schizophrenia, then to the investment script, then to the investigation of the case, and finally to the video shooting project. Although this drama does not have popular actors, from the perspective of plot and creativity, it has won many film and television dramas.
2. Laughing point density, explosion
The popularity of "Detective Catching Horses" is mainly due to the dense laughter of each episode, and all kinds of funny explosions make the audience laugh to the point of spraying. The fast-paced narrative, as well as the large-character posters and slow-motion close-ups that are very memorable, form a strong personal style. When watching the play, there will be a sense of dreaming back to "Never Expected".
The plot and characters are not the same between the two, but both the terrier and the laughter are masters. "Never Expected" makes people remember Wang Sledgehammer, and "Detective Catching Horses" makes people remember the fat and thin combination. There are many tributes to classic movies in the play, such as imitating "Infernal Affairs" and "New Police Story" is refreshing, no spoofs, some are just interesting into the plot. The scene of the rooftop confrontation group gun was played by the screenwriter with ingenuity.
At the same time, the play also integrates a lot of network memes, such as "inviting horses", "catching ducks", etc. and highly integrated with the plot, which makes people can't help but be funny and become part of the plot. The anti-routine laugh point is surprising and reasonable.
Of course, "Detective Catching Horses" is not blindly funny, and the plot also involves some social phenomena. For example, the plot of satirizing the bastard meal is of great practical significance, and the behavior of the illegitimate meal sneaking into the detective's home seems absurd, but in fact, the audience knows that this plot is an irony of the irrational crazy star-chasing behavior of the moment.
Some bastards follow the stars, bringing a lot of trouble to the lives of the stars. "Detective Catching Horses" filmed it as a haunted ghost in the home, which is also a metaphor for the bastard meal like a ghost. In particular, the irony of the bastard rice pulled out at the end of the plot was pulled to the highest.
In addition, the drama did not blindly laugh when discussing the plot of domestic violence and sexual assault, and the two actors who played the mother and daughter showed the pain of domestic violence and sexual assault and the deep love between mother and child very well.
This plot is also very moving, but also explores the issue of professional ethics, the importance of jurisprudence and human feelings, etc., and the whole episode is full of human care.
Overall, "Detective Horse Catcher" attracts the audience with creativity and retains the audience with the plot. Some viewers may open a TV series to an actor or star, while some viewers do not care about the cast and production team. But no matter what reason the audience chooses to chase a drama, in the end, it is still a wonderful plot that can retain the audience. If the plot is not attractive enough, even if the cast is strong and the production team is excellent, it is just a gorgeous coat wrapped in lice for the audience.
