On July 30, the sitcom "Ichiyake Family" was quietly launched, and the family scene with a strong atmosphere of life and the familiar live laughter evoked the memories of chasing dramas as a child. From "The Story of the Editorial Department" and "I Love My Family" in the 90s to the "Tale of Wulin" and "Family with Children" in the new century, sitcoms have always been popular themes that have set off a craze for ratings, and until now, these classic works are still repeatedly watched by the audience as "next rice artifacts". In the past decade, except for the controversial "Love Apartment", it is rare to see such themes, and the sitcom "broken file" has become a reality.
<b>"Hu Yitong" has become a grandfather</b>
"A Family House" seems to be a test of the sitcom's entry into the Internet, the show only has 16 episodes, each episode is only about 25 minutes, compared with the previous tens of hundreds of episodes of the same genre, the length and number of episodes are much less.
The story is set in a relocation housing community called Happy Home, the third unit of the fourth building, Units 201, 202 and the downstairs gatehouse are inhabited by the four grandfathers and grandchildren of the old Ma family, plus neighbors, interpreting the most ordinary trivial daily life. Small scenes, life, very standard life sitcom model, what is touching is that Ma Shuliang, the actor of Liu Xing's father "Hu Yitong" in "Family with Children", has grayed his hair and has become an old naughty boy of his grandfather's generation.
Sitcoms are mostly about small things about ordinary people, refining humor and laughter from the bittersweet and bittersweet in life, and the same is true for "Ichiki Family". The characters in the play have distinct personalities and are very representative, granddaughter-in-law Fan Chengyuan is a modern version of "son-in-law", doctor has not graduated for 7 years, consciously become a "family cook"; grandpa Ma Tianming tries to save more pension money, loves face and loves children more, and wants to leave a way back for grandchildren and granddaughters-in-law who do not seek advancement; granddaughter Ma Tao should be strong and capable, grandson Ma Dai does not seek advancement, and Jin Dahai, an apprentice of TuinaGuan, and Peng Weiwei, an e-commerce anchor who seeks a shared apartment... Each episode is an independent little story, and the crowd contributes laughter points in the chicken flying dog jumping, laughing and playing.
The classic sitcoms "Family with Children", "I Love My Family" and "Northeast Family" all have distinct regional characteristics, showing the regional humor of Beijing flavor and Northeast flavor respectively, "Ichizai Family" also integrates dialect characteristics, and Fan Chengyuan in the play speaks a Qingdao dialect to show a different kind of "manhood", which is very funny. It is worth mentioning that Fan Chengyuan's actor Zhang Haiyu is a native of Qingdao, Shandong, who became popular in 2013 as an image of "Qingdao Aunt" on the Internet.
<b>Similar hits have not been seen for many years</b>
The origin of domestic sitcoms can be traced back to 1992 "The Story of the Editorial Department", which is the first local chamber drama in China, depicting the exchange and collision between 6 editors with different personalities but all understanding and helpful in the editorial department of a magazine called "Human Guide".
In 1993, "I Love My Home" swept the country, making sitcoms household names, practicing qigong, playing chess and other plots with the atmosphere of life made the audience very familiar, the humorous and funny interpretation was impressive, and its happy and harmonious family was also the most moving part of the play. Family and life sitcoms are also the most domestic sitcoms, including the most familiar post-90s "Family with Children", "Northeast Family", as well as "Yang Guang's Happy Life" and "Idle Centaur Big Sister", etc., with many hits.
In addition, there are also "The Story of the Cooking Class" with military themes, "The Story of the Waiting Room" and "The Story of the Health Team" with professional themes, and "Underground Traffic Station" also received a high score of 9.3.
In 2006, the "Tale of Wulin" was broadcast several times a year, and the 80-episode costume sitcom was broadcast countless times on TV, and the audience would watch it repeatedly on station B more than a decade later. The protagonists were sent to the Tongfu Inn, and the nonsensical comedy style, unique life philosophy and alternative analysis of life made the drama a little higher, becoming a god with a Douban score of 9.6. "The Tale of Wulin" is a rare martial arts theme sitcom, also written by Ning Caishen in 2014, and "Dragon Gate Dart Game" starring Guo Jingfei and Yuan Yongyi is also a costume play, but the story and plot are much inferior.
After "The Legend of Wulin", there were few similar blockbuster dramas until around 2010, when "Love Apartment" came out. Compared with the previous sitcoms suitable for family fun, this work that focuses on youth love is more sought after by young people, and the drama has both the male and female beauty and love elements of idol dramas, as well as the internet hot memes that keep up with the trend, and the localization laughter points are very dense.
The good times were not long, "Love Apartment" soon fell into the plagiarism storm, was accused of plagiarism "Friends", "The Big Bang Theory", "Daddy and Mom Romance" and other classic American dramas, but also satirized as "the most successful sitcom in the cottage", despite this, "Love Apartment" is still regarded as "youth memories" by a group of drama fans. The follow-up works of the drama are less and less fond of feathers, before 2014, at the rate of one sequel per year, the plot is not said, the laughter point is gradually embarrassing, and the network movie of the same name also gets a low score of 3.2 Douban. Until 2020, the final season of "Love Apartment 5" is the end of 10 years of youth for drama fans. The drama is very controversial and popular, but its influence is only limited to the young circle, and it is still far from the previous blockbuster sitcoms that open up all ages.
In the six or seven years after "Love Apartment", comedy short dramas such as "Never Expected" and "Need for a Lady" with online characteristics became popular, but such short dramas were only short-lived. In today's increasingly homogeneous film and television market, there is still a need for sitcoms that can satisfy the audience's relaxation and entertainment.
