2022 hasn't been around for long.
The drama king already has a seed player.
Just aired two episodes, Douban opened a score of 9.7.
It does not rely on scale, does not rely on big scenes, only relies on the sincere intentions of each episode, poking at the soft underbelly of each audience.
Every season back, Uncle Fish will highly recommend.
The latest season, which has begun today, will also be the final season of the entire series.
To tell the truth, Uncle Yu was really reluctant to do so.
When it is almost over, once again, to everyone fiercely Amway -
Season Six of Our Day
This Is Us Season 6
"Our Day" is one of Uncle Fish's favorites.
Of course, it's not just me.
On Douban, more than 150,000 people gave the first season a high score of 9.5.
Six years, six seasons.
The lowest of these also has a score of 9.3.
To say that it is a divine drama, no one can refute it.
Such a high-profile drama, no big name, no dog blood, no yellow storm, no catching horses.
There are only trivial and ordinary family stories, but they can make countless people's hearts tremble.
Maybe some people will say it's sensational, say it's chicken soup.
But the incitement of this drama is the highest level of "incitement", not pretentious, not deliberate, and the moisturizer is silent.
Let people know whether it is a bowl of chicken soup, or will not be able to hold a mouthful, and then tearfully sigh:
True fragrance ~
As one netizen commented:
"In this era of spicy heat, I am still warmed by chicken soup."
Screenwriter Dan Fogelman was surprised to say that he never expected the audience to cry so much.
As early as the first season, the classic "lemonade" speech was out of the loop.
Bring life to you lemon-like sourness
Brews a sweetness like lemonade
And this scene is only a very small microcosm of the whole play.
The story of each season can be moved in the most simple and sincere way to make you willingly moved.
The protagonists of "Our Day" are the Pearson family.
Father Jack, mother Rebecca, and three children who came into the world on the same day.
Originally, Rebecca was pregnant with triplets.
On Jack's birthday, Rebecca's amniotic fluid broke.
The first two children were born smoothly, and the third unfortunately died in the womb.
Coincidentally, an abandoned baby born on the same day appeared in front of their eyes.
They decided to adopt it.
Thus, the family had one of the most wonderful things: the three children and the father all had the same birthday.
Birthdays have become another layer of emotional bond in addition to their family affection.
At the beginning of each season, it also begins with a birthday.
From the 36th birthday of the first season to the 41st birthday of today.
Celebrating birthdays together has become an agreement between the Pearson family and the audience.
To outsiders, the harmonious Pearson family is exemplary.
Parents love, and the three children have their own deeds.
But only they know how unsatisfactory their lives are.
The eldest brother, Kevin, is a well-known actor.
From small handsome to large, everywhere you go is the focus of everyone.
However, Kevin is not confident and is often in a state of high anxiety.
Although he has achieved a little success in Hollywood, he relies on his handsome appearance.
He longs for deeper and more meaningful performances.
At present, he can only play a meat seller in a vulgar sitcom.
On his 36th birthday, he couldn't stand it anymore and exploded at the scene of the performance.
On the one hand, he scolded the bad customs of this play, and on the other hand, he scolded the audience's bad taste.
He voluntarily gave up the easy job that could bring him an annual salary of millions of dollars in a luxury house.
Instead, he went to Broadway and sought real actor development.
The second sister, Kate, is a fat girl.
Growing up, she was plagued by her fat body.
For six seasons, she was always losing weight and always overeating because of anxiety.
Kate is jealous of her mother's beautiful figure and perfect singing voice, and envious of her brother's brilliance.
It is hard to meet people who really love themselves, but they still dare not open their hearts.
Obesity became the biggest shackle in Kate's life.
The younger brother, Randall, is a successful entrepreneur.
Drive a luxury car to live in a mansion, family harmony, life winner.
But since childhood, Randall has been plagued by identity.
One look at the color of his skin, you know he was adopted.
As a black man who grew up in a white family, he has always been troubled by his ethnic identity.
He longed to have black friends and to find his biological father.
When he was a child, he secretly launched a search notice on the Internet, and when he grew up, he secretly hired a private detective to find his father.
He hopes to fill the gap in his life by finding his own bloodline and confirming his identity.
The play uses a fairy-tale perfect family to tell us about imperfect real life.
This is the core reason why "Our Day" can make people "cry while watching".
And what reflects this to the extreme is the soul of the play -
Father Jack.
In the play, he is a "good man with a full score plus one".
Outside the play, there is "the ceiling of a good man".
Love wife, love family, work hard, excellent temperament.
At first glance Jack, he was indeed perfect.
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as "perfection" in this world.
Jack is a good man in a hundred, but he is also an ordinary person with many holes.
His original family was extremely bad.
My father was an alcoholic and abusive, and always vented his anger on his family.
Fortunately, Jack did not inherit his father's bad, nor did he give up on himself, but chose to enlist in the army and flee the family.
Jack, who can return from the battlefield, suffers from PTSD.
For a long time after retiring from the army, I lived in a muddy way.
At one point, he almost followed the old path of his father's drunkenness.
Luckily, he met Rebecca, who was sparkling on stage.
The beauty of love prompts Jack to redeem himself with kindness and warmth.
Jack wasn't a competent father in the first place.
After the birth of the triplets, the care of the children was almost always entrusted to Rebecca.
While she was busy at home, Jack often ran outside for drinks.
Jack couldn't help complaining to his friends that his wife was no longer beautiful and not as charming as she had been when she first met.
His friend reminds Jack that he is running away.
"When you marry her, you have climbed very high."
Jack realized that the reason Rebecca was no longer pretty was entirely because of him.
Because he has been running away, escaping from becoming a husband, becoming a father.
He threw all the burdens of the baby to his wife.
So Jack got home and spent the night outside Rebecca's bedroom reviewing himself.
When I woke up in the morning, I promised my wife.
He vowed to be a good husband and father with a full score of one.
It wasn't since then that Jack really began to metamorphose into a responsible dad.
It can be seen that what "Our Day" tells is nothing more than the big and small things that can be seen everywhere in life.
There is no earth-shattering blood of horses and dogs, and there is no bizarre imagination.
But it uses these ordinary and trivial stories to bring the most real warmth and healing to our real lives.
It speaks of self-identification.
Kate, like most of us, doesn't have much self-control.
Always talk about losing weight, thin can become beautiful, find a Prince Charming to marry.
She labeled every food in the refrigerator with calories, but she couldn't resist eating it.
The result?
After six seasons, she didn't lose weight at all.
You might say that there's something nice about a chubby girl who hasn't lost weight successfully.
Uncle Fish wants to say that Kate's story has never been about losing weight, but about accepting herself.
Like her mother, Kate has a natural singing voice.
But because of her obesity, she never dared to sing in public.
Like a hedgehog, always shutting herself in a small world, sensitive and inferior.
She later plucked up the courage to regain her dream of singing, but again encountered setbacks.
The long-term grievances have led her to habitually attribute her failures to the injustices caused by her body.
Unexpectedly, the contestant who won by beauty in Kate's eyes made a big splash as soon as he opened his voice.
Only then did she realize that she was complaining about others and had always used her body as an excuse for failure in life, so she gave up practicing and gave up life.
Many people can see their own shadow in Kate, also troubled by the figure, the same "more and more fat".
But this drama has given us a dose of medicine.
Nothing in this world is the preserve of the thin man.
Fat, can also be very beautiful, can also find true love.
So, if there's one thing to say about Kate's six seasons that really changed.
That's when she tore off the sticky note for compulsive weight loss, lived actively, and worked hard to be confident.
It will talk about homeschooling.
In front of the child, Jack did not have the condescending attitude of many parents, but communicated with the child like a friend.
When Kate was a child, she was ostracized by her friends because of her fatness and felt lost.
Jack would crouch down and tell her firmly:
"In my eyes, you will always be a little princess."
When Kevin almost drowned in the pool, he blamed his father for only caring about his younger siblings and not caring about him.
Jack not only did not blame Kevin, but immediately apologized:
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this is my first time as a dad
I'm going to take care of all three of you, and I'm trying to do that."
When children do something wrong, Jack and Rebecca always look for reasons in themselves first.
Willing to listen to the voice of the child, willing to improve their own education methods.
This kind of love is the best treasure that parents can give to their children.
It also talks about love.
After countless times of separation, Kevin finally reconciled with Madison.
The two became pregnant before marriage and gave birth to a child.
But just as they were finally about to get married, Madison suddenly pressed the pause button.
She wanted Kevin to seriously consider whether the two were really going to be together and seriously consider the child's business.
The most important thing is to seriously consider whether you love her or not.
Marriage is not a child's play, and we cannot get married in a hurry because of the pressure of public opinion.
At the end of the fifth season, after a heated debate, Kevin realized the problem.
He knew how to take on the responsibilities of a man, but he never figured out what he wanted.
And such a Kevin is not what Madison needs to marry a man.
I have to say that the means of handling this relationship in this drama are very clever.
There is no marriage story that makes it dog blood.
Instead, let the two people communicate from their own point of view and with true feelings.
Marriage is a covenant that requires two people who love each other, not a compromise.
By the end of the sixth season, everyone's problems are still there.
Kevin moved to Madison's garage to take care of the kids.
He was still thinking about the way the two of them got along.
Rebecca was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.
The gradual disappearance of memories began to cause great trouble to her and her family.
This family still has to face new problems and new ups and downs.
The original intention of "Our Day" is not to make an all-round chicken soup, to tell people the ultimate answer, to teach people to a perfect life.
It is precisely to tell people that life is not perfect, there are always troubles, there are always setbacks and regrets of one kind or another.
However, we still have to face forward and try to live this life well.
This is the key to the fascination of countless people with "Our Day".
It's just a pity that such a moving series is about to end this year.
Now it's one episode less.
When Uncle Yu chases after him with such a mood, he will also have another layer of regrets.
I also know that there is no unbroken feast in the world, and there is no endless drama on the screen.
But in reality, life never stops.
Setbacks and sufferings always come to us unexpectedly.
At that time, I believe that I will recall the scenes in "Our Day" again, and get a strong inspiration and echo from it.
At that moment, I will be once again sincerely grateful:
It's nice to have seen this show.
