For details, let's look at the following list.
10th Place: "The Silent Sea"
Score: 3461
Genre: Sci-fi
Release date: 2021-12-24
Whether it's Netflix Original: Yes
Referral Index: ★★★
Reason for the list: The drama is a science fiction drama, based on the short film of the same name directed by Cui Xiangyong, the story is set in 2075, when the resources of the earth have been exhausted, and several astronauts are sent to a research base on the moon, their purpose is to bring back a mysterious substance called "moon water", which is said to be able to solve the resource crisis of the earth, and there is a shocking conspiracy behind the burning goose "moon water", and the fate of these astronauts is also closely linked to the moon water.
"Silent Sea" (hereinafter referred to as "Jing Hai") was broadcast on December 24, Netflix let the film perform in the finale of 2021, obviously pay more attention to the quality of the show, but after the broadcast did not produce the expected sensation, the major media ratings are also relatively moderate, "Jing Hai" In the Douban score is only 6.3, IMDB is 7.0, is completely an ordinary TV series, these bridges in the play are other film and television dramas to play rotten content, and on the space of this kind of thing and the stick state hair relationship, they have no technology, two no talent, three no experience, let them have a strong sense of violation in the sky, rush to the foot "Jing Hai" is completely copying the American drama that set of things, did not shoot their own creativity, before the "Hell Minister" is a bit of copying the practice of American dramas, this time more obvious. Look at the case that the special effects of this drama are still good, reluctantly give a three stars.
Ninth Place: League of Legends: Battle of Two Cities (Arcane)
Score: 4242
Type: Animation
Release date: 2021-11-6
Referral Index: ★★★★
Reason for the list: "The Battle of Two Cities" is an animated series based on the "League of Legends" game produced by Fist Games, which is said to have taken nearly 6 years to produce, containing more than 7,000 shots and tens of thousands of hand-drawn original paintings, and its plot is also ups and downs, portraying the love and killing of the sisters Wei and Jinx to the fullest. The drama was also well received after broadcasting, and its Douban score reached 9.1 and received 9 nominations at the 49th Annie Awards, which shows how high the quality of the show is. However, because the show is an animated series with a limited audience, The ranking in December fell significantly compared to November, from second to ninth.
8th Prize: "The King's Affection"
Score: 5110
Genre: Drama, History
Release date: 2021-10-11
Recommendation Index: ★ ☆
Reason for the list: It is another court drama in which women dress up as men, and this time it is actually filmed in South Korea, "Love" has no novelty from the plot, that is, the story of the sister in the court after the death of her brother, the woman dressed as a man to replace her brother as the son of the world. The whole drama can be said to be very cheesy, in addition to women dressed as men, but also court fighting, but also talk about love, this kind of East and East n years ago has been rotten street, I really don't know how cheesy things are swollen to the 8th place, look at the broadcast area of the show, it seems to be mainly broadcast in Asia and South America, I don't know what the ratings will look like after broadcasting in Europe and the United States.
Seventh Place: "The Queen of Flow"
Score: 6835
Region: Plot
Release date: 2018-6-12
Referral Index: ★★
Reason for the list: The drama is a Spanish drama, which is a relatively unpopular drama, mainly telling the story of a young and beautiful and talented sister paper, who has been pursuing her musical dreams, and as a result, she was framed and unjustly imprisoned, and after coming out of prison, she began to take revenge madly. From the plot point of view is a revenge drama, this kind of drama is also a lot, although the content is not new, but the plot is not bad, IMDB rating 7.9, because it is a South American drama, so it is mainly broadcast in South America. There was a Singaporean drama called "Revenge Queen" before, these two are not a drama, I hope you distinguish it.
6th Place: Squid Game
Score: 6965
Genre: Drama
Release date: 2021-9-17
Recommendation Index: ★★★★ ☆
Reason for the list: "Squid Games" as the largest number of watched TV series in Netflix history, the ranking in this list has dropped a lot, which is normal, after all, it has been broadcast for several months, what should be watched has also been watched, the popularity will definitely drop a lot, and there are many new dramas broadcast in December, many are also big hit episodes, with so many competitors, the decline in the ranking of "Squid Games" is also expected, according to this trend, "Squid Games" will fall out of the list next month.
Fifth place: Titans
Score: 7350
Netflix Original: No
Recommendation Index: ★★★ ☆
Reasons for the list: As the only non-Netflix series in this list, "Titan" is really out of the ordinary, and it is indeed a bit surprising that a DC TV series can rank 5th on the Netflix turf.
The show is a DC Comics adaptation, which mainly tells the story of the teenage Titans (Nightwing, Spark, Beast Boy, Raven, etc.) fighting with the evil forces. The show has been broadcast since 2018, and has now come out to the 3rd season, but these 3 seasons are not as good as one, you want to say the main reason, personally feel that it may be a big step, to put it bluntly, there are too many people in the whole drama, Nightwing, Spark, Beast Boy, Raven, White Dove, Hank, Red Hood, Wonder Girl, Little Superman, plus the dog hook with two eyes, there are too many characters in the whole play, there is no main heart, the plot east a hammer and a hammer, everyone is very intimidated when fighting monsters, and the result is that the infighting is quite strong. Personally, I think that after filming the fourth season, I will directly end it, pull out these main characters alone to make a TV series, don't engage in any group dramas, the director and screenwriter obviously can't hold it.
Fourth place: Emily in Paris
Score: 7501
Genre: Romance, Comedy
Release date: 2020-10-2
Recommendation Index: ★★ ☆
Why she made the list: "Emily in Paris" is a romantic comedy starring British actress Lily Collins, about a twenty-something Emily from Chicago, a marketing executive whose company bought a French company, and then she came to Paris to work and start a new life here. How to say this drama, from the overall point of view, it should be regarded as a fashion drama, which has a variety of fashion shows, and the frequency of the heroine changing clothes is higher than that of fashion models, but it feels that Collins is really old, only 32 years old, even if no matter how much makeup can not cover up the traces of the years.
The film does not have much of a highlight from the plot point of view, but it has produced quite a stir outside the play, because the ukrainians are portrayed as thieves in the play, which has aroused strong dissatisfaction among Ukrainian audiences, so that Ukrainian Minister of Culture Tkachenko has complained to Netflix, and Netflix has also apologized for the matter. In short, for the play, if you want to learn about French culture or see beautiful women and handsome men, this is OK, but if you are going to the plot, then go to see "The House of Paper Money".
3rd Place: "Lost in Space"
Score: 8850
Release date: 2021-12-1
Reason for the list: Many people watch this drama and think that the plot may be a little weak-minded, which is certain, because this is a family-style family drama, which is a remake of the science fiction drama of the same name from 1965. In the whole play, except for a few adults, it is basically a group of children acting on paper, children not only have to make friends with robots, but also have to do various scientific experiments, and even drive spaceships, and there are almost no violent factors in the play, such as technology so developed, there is not a decent weapon, but two pieces of electromagnets to defend themselves, which originally made me laugh and pee.
But the overall plot is not bad, and the things that can be portrayed are also portrayed, such as family affection, love, friendship, betrayal, and the darkness of human nature, which are all reflected. And the ending of the third season is also relatively satisfactory, a family reunion, full of warmth and happiness, it seems that the fourth season should not be there, Netflix has not indicated whether there is a fourth season, but judging from the good ending of the third season, there is a high probability that there will be no fourth season, and several small actors have grown up, such as the male protagonist was still a small fart child in the first season of 2018, and now he has grown taller than his sister. The author believes that the plot of the play is still good, suitable for parents and children to watch together.
2nd Prize: The Witcher
Score: 13760
Genre: Fantasy, Action
Release date: 2021-12-17
Reasons for the list: The much-anticipated second season has finally aired, and it has been filmed well, at least much stronger than the first season, although the plot is much stronger than the first season, but I personally think that the second season is not as good as the first season. The first season mainly introduces the overview of the whole story and the background of several protagonists, while the second season is purely transitional, that is, about the further development of each character, to put it bluntly, there is no particularly significant event, just going backwards along the timeline.
And the first season from the fight and special effects is also obviously stronger than the second season, at least the heroine finally put a fire escape fireball technique, it is still relatively powerful, the second season in addition to the first episode of some points of view (such as the banshee is very beautiful), other is not bad, take the last episode, so many demon hunters, even can not beat a few stone lizards, you those potions are really white. However, the overall quality of the show is not bad, the third season is expected to be broadcast in 2023 or 2024, and there will be a derivative drama "Demon Hunter: Blood source" in 2022, but the specific broadcast date has not yet been determined.
1st Prize: Money Heist
Score: 19358
Release date: 2021-9-3
Referral Index: ★★★★★
Reason for the list: "The House of Banknotes" has finally ushered in the finale, and how many people are reluctant to watch it. The fifth season of "House of Bills" has 10 episodes, the first half of which aired on September 3, the second half on December 3, the first half can be said to be a combination of passion and tears, and the second half is a fusion of wisdom and courage. Many people are looking forward to it, thinking that the screenwriter can write "Tokyo" (Tokyo), the result is that Tokyo really hung up, this is good, you all cry like Wang Xingren, Tokyo although countless viewers are very unhappy, but in the end people still ignited their own lives, to illuminate the darkness on the road of everyone's progress, which reminds me a bit of Zack in the American drama "Blood Clan", all of which suddenly awakened at the last moment of their lives.
The final finale of the whole play is not bad, the professor uses his own efforts to minimize the loss, and all the survivors get freedom and their own wealth, which is also a "tape" for the audience. Although "House of Paper Money" is classic, there are many bugs, such as team infighting since the first season has not stopped, many infighting is imposed by the screenwriter, otherwise the progress of the plot will be too smooth, but the show still changes many people's views on European dramas, especially non-English dramas, I hope Netflix can bring more similar excellent episodes. Looking forward to the show's spin-off", Berlin.
