2021 is nearing the end, in this year there are many high-quality good dramas born, but there are also many high-profile series that have disappointed the audience after the start of broadcasting. These dramas are either strong in production teams, or have popular IP and highly popular actors as protagonists, which greatly raise the audience's expectations before broadcasting, and as a result, they fail to receive the expected effect after broadcasting.
So let's talk about the episodes of 2021 that made the audience particularly "disappointed":
1: "Knife Line in the Snow"
As the grand finale drama of 2021, this martial arts drama personally written by gold-medal screenwriter Wang Ti and co-produced by the core team of "Qing Yu Nian", "Sword Line in the Snow" ranks first in the expectation value of martial arts dramas with more than 30,000 people who want to see it.
I thought that this drama was a big IP, a big production, a gold medal team, plus Zhang Ruoyun, Hu Jun, Gao Weiguang, Zhang Tianai and other powerful factions to participate together, once broadcast, it will definitely become a blockbuster drama in the fourth quarter of 2021. What the audience can't imagine is that the popularity of "Knife Line in the Snow" is indeed very high after it was broadcast, but this heat was "scolded" by the audience.
The plot rhythm is delayed, the filter dies, the actor's acting skills are awkward, coupled with the "magic change" of the original work, it can be said that this "Knife Line in the Snow" completely lived up to the audience's eager expectations, and even the good reputation accumulated by the entire production team was greatly reduced by the disappointment of the audience.
2: "Breakout"
In 2017, the phenomenon-level anti-corruption drama "The Name of the People" became popular throughout the country, and the sister article "People's Property" also entered the intensive shooting, and in the filming process, due to various reasons, it had to be torn down several times to re-create the script, and even experienced two major reshoots, and it took half a year to successfully finish.
It took three and a half years from the start of filming to the start of the broadcast, until October 2021, when it was renamed "Breakout" to meet the audience, and the audience's expectations were gradually raised in the long wait. I thought I would see a classic and shocking drama like "The Name of the People", but after the broadcast, I found that the whole drama was greatly out of standard, not only the rhythm was delayed, the editing was chaotic, and some powerful actors appeared to have exaggerated acting skills with five facial features, and finally only received a Douban rating of 5.3.
III: "The Words of the Great Song Dynasty"
Directed by Li Shaohong and co-starring Liu Tao, Zhou Yumin, Liang Guanhua and many other acting schools, "The Words of the Great Song Palace" is definitely one of the historical dramas that disappointed the audience the most this year.
It should be known that 21 years ago, after the "Daming Palace Words" directed by Li Shaohong was broadcast, because of its excellent quality and the superb acting skills of the actors, it caused the effect of chasing the drama in the crowded alley, and it still ranks first in the list of similar dramas with a high score of 9.1.
This time, director Li Shaohong directed "The Words of the Great Song Palace" again, basically telling the audience that she wanted to create another classic masterpiece. But who knows that once this drama was broadcast, it fell into the whirlpool of word-of-mouth collapse, although the name of the play was "Great Song Palace Words", but in fact, the Song Dynasty did not have a so-called "Great Song Palace", and most of the story revolved around the Song Dynasty, taking this name is basically to sell feelings and rub heat, Zhou Yumin's embarrassing acting skills and Liu Tao's forced appearance of playing a young girl were also strongly criticized by the audience.
"Great Song Palace Words" Douban barely has a passing score of 6.1, but when it comes to the finale, it goes all the way to 3.8 points, which fully explains the audience's disappointment in this drama.
IV: "Long Song Line"
On the popularity of IP, which drama in 2021 does not have the original fan base of "Long Song Line", this comic basically accompanies every post-90s middle and high school period, plus the cast is Di Li Reba and Wu Lei, who have traffic and acting skills, so this drama is set to be in the limelight after the schedule, basically has booked this year's blockbuster drama.
However, wanwan did not expect that after the start of this drama, because of a series of bizarre operations such as tampering with history, male and female protagonists' shapes pulling crotches, and playing dramas all relying on comic splicing, the ratings jumped off a cliff, and even the "restoration of the original work" at the beginning of the official announcement did not do it, not only offended the fans of the original, but also dissuaded many viewers who chased the drama because of the unusual plot.
This drama has also become the most heartbreaking drama in the 2021 adaptation.
5: "Shangyang Fu"
As the first TV series filmed by the film queen Zhang Ziyi in the past twenty years, many viewers are full of expectations for this "Shangyang Fu".
And from the trailer released by the crew, many old drama bones joined in to help, the costumes were all exquisite, the overall tone and picture were also full of film texture, coupled with the top team led by Zhang Ziyi, "Shangyang Fu" had not yet been broadcast, and many film critics and media people thought that this drama was absolutely stable.
As a result, after the start of this drama, it staged an old-fashioned and dog-blooded Mary Sue big female lead play, Zhang Ziyi's acting skills are no matter how bright, it is difficult to perform the natural agility of teenage girls, and the male characters in the play are even more greasy, so that many viewers can't help but spit that "Shangyang Fu" is a group of actors with an average age of 45 years old playing love games, which is really disappointing.
There may be actors who are naturally more suitable for the big screen, and I hope that Zhang Ziyi will make more films and contribute more excellent works.
6: "The Octagonal Pavilion Mist"
In 2020, the "Mist Theater" was vigorous, and one "Hidden Corner" and another "Silent Truth" were broadcast one after another, directly laying the foundation for the status of the leading boss of the suspense drama on the video website.
"Octagonal Pavilion Mist" as the first suspense drama promoted by this year's "Misty Theater", directed by Wang Xiaoshuai, the director who won the World Award, starring Duan Yihong, Hao Lei, Wu Yue and Zu Feng, this configuration is even better than many large-scale film teams, and it is reasonable to say that it is a masterpiece that is absolutely "not a loss in shares".
But who knows that after the start of this drama, it will collapse due to the mysterious plot and a large number of family ethics scenes, and this "Octagonal Pavilion Mist" has also been spat at by the audience as a "neurotic family", and finally will only receive a failing score of 5.7 on Douban, which also makes the expectations of the rest of the works to be broadcast in the "Mist Theater" decline significantly.
I wonder what other dramas in 2021 will disappoint you in front of the screen?
