Today's variety show market is full of flowers, but there are not many variety shows out of the circle, and now it seems that "Ace to Ace" is a monopoly, and the fun of the show is only dependent on Jia Ling and Shen Teng, and the really good-looking variety shows do not know when they have become less and less.
In the public's mind, "Extreme Challenge" is definitely a fine product in the variety show, and the Extreme Man Gang composed of Sun Honglei, Huang Lei, Huang Bo, Luo Zhixiang, Zhang Yixing, and Wang Xun has become an insurmountable classic.
Interesting guests coupled with Yan Min's director Yan Silk Seam, but also with interesting challenges, so that "Extreme Challenge" became the hottest variety show at that time, competing with the peak of "Run Bar Brothers".
However, with the withdrawal of Yan Min and the Extreme Man Gang, "Extreme Challenge" also began to decline, and even finally directly changed its taste.
Yan Min wants to create a new "man gang"
In recent times, how many people have been brushed by the variety show "New Travels", and the reason why this variety show is so popular is nothing more than another masterpiece of director Yan Min.
But it is regrettable that the Extreme Man Gang did not all return, but replaced them with Huang Zitao, Zhang Ruoyun, Yue Yunpeng, Wang Yanlin, Lin Xinxin, and Chen Feiyu.
While there were no surprises on the guest line-up, the show itself had a strong appeal.
The inspiration of "New Travels" is based on the four famous works "Journey to the West", in an attempt to let the fixed guests re-take the road to the west, the background setting of the entire variety show is very macroscopic and meaningful, but the content is not satisfactory.
It was a little difficult for Yan Min to create a new "man gang". In the first episode of the show, six guests attended a party and won the chairman's favorite "peach" through the auction.
The setting of the whole game is somewhat similar to the movie "Animal World", in which there are a series of real-life problems such as investment, lending, scalpers, etc., which is Yan Min's consistent style.
But the show is not good, there are three reasons why it is not good, the first is that the story rhythm is too slow, the laughter point is not dense enough, and the degree of watchability is too low.
Yan Min has always liked to engage in slow-paced variety shows, but this should be based on the situation that the guests have baggage, if the guests are too dry, then the whole show will become extremely boring.
The first issue of "New Travels" obviously has this problem, if a variety show can not attract the audience at the beginning, it is doomed to fail the show.
The second problem is that there is no chemical reaction between the guests, Huang Zitao, who has a sense of variety, Yue Yunpeng entertains himself, Zhang Ruoyun has always been intellectually responsible, and Wang Yanlin is outside the situation.
Lin Xinxin and Chen Feiyu, who have not appeared for a long time, are like social fears, which are incompatible with the entire program, and several guests have not achieved the effect of the program, which will make the variety show with a very slow pace more boring.
The last reason is that the program team keeps changing the rules, and the audience familiar with "Extreme Challenge" knows that this is Yan Min's consistent style, but as a director, he forgets that these six guests are not "sinister and cunning" men.
Previously, no matter what rules Yan Min made, the men helped several people outside the situation, depending on the rules for nothing, which led to Yan Min constantly changing the rules to suppress the men's gang, in order to achieve the variety show effect that should be there.
However, in "New Travels", several guests are a tendon, like a "headless fly" like a "headless fly" outside the rules, this time the program team constantly changes the rules, will only make the game difficulty increase indefinitely.
And several guests do not have the strength to confront it, which causes the audience to struggle when watching, and without the game between the director group and the guests, it will lose the characteristics that Yan Min should have.
The classic of the "Man Gang" cannot be reproduced
After the broadcast of "New Travels", Huang Bo accidentally forwarded the video related to the program, and as long as the video revolves around the NPC tiger, many netizens speculate that under the tiger mask is Huang Bo himself.
If this is the case, it will be an absolute surprise for the audience who miss the "extremely picky".
Looking back at "Extreme Challenge", many game links in it are now variety shows that dare not try, such as blowing up cars and blowing up buildings.
And Huang Bo is locked up in a car, the car is gradually sinking into the lake under the pull of the rope, these people are almost all playing for their lives, not playing games at all.
Of course, these wonderful and exciting links only exist in the first or second seasons of extreme challenges, and the game links in the next two seasons tend to be entertaining, but the content of the program is still good.
Who remembers the golden bell cover, the iron cloth shirt, and the overnight popular "Zhu Bishi", Shiba Inu Huang Bo, Sun Honglei bumping into the face of the Minotaur Terrier, these wonderful moments still make the audience remember deeply.
But these are classics that cannot be reproduced, the silly Sun Honglei, the old fox Huang Lei, the bad uncle Huang Bo, the little fox Zhang Yixing, the humorous and funny Luo Zhixiang, the bullied Wang Xun, everyone is alive, three-dimensional, and the man gang is also destined to become a memory.
Write at the end
"There is no unbroken feast in the world," is also true for a show, and finally hopes that Yan Min's "New Travels" can create glory again.
