Those "three-piece set," the British drama, decent fun but also a lot of it?



In the UK, the audience for the British drama actors elegant dress and superb acting bold and proud, but American TV shows are also very popular here, even say they prefer the American TV audience. Although the United States play a distinctive role in their performances always slightly exaggerated, clothing is not enough fine, but the British audience apparently these "shortcomings" very tolerant.

"Overwhelming" while the rich old scores. "" This sentence has been regarded as a warning, it indicates that the British drama series over the United States brings the possible consequences. And remember this phrase viewers, critics and the producers, but also will be surprised with a kind of vision to look at this era. Today in the UK network of jealousy American TV dominates, while opinion polls show that in the eyes of most people, are some of the best looking American TV dramas, such as "Breaking Bad," "ad mad Men, "" game of Thrones "and" House of cards. "

Many people have been pessimistic that British drama will live in the shadow of the United States play, they feel British drama is not well represent national short of shooting, shooting general Finally, all British drama feels like is carved out of a mold, it is nothing new. This frustration with the corresponding, the British drama so that people feel almost stubborn kind of fun, including free television advertising to bring happiness, as well as performance standards like "Sherlock" That hit works.

some problems

Racial factor is becoming troubled British drama production. Independent TV (ITV1) ratings leading the way drama "murderous four volts," because nearly all of its credits by a team composed of whites has been criticized racial discrimination. Whether such theme is based on the historical drama adaptation (such as those drama adapted from Jane Austen and Charles Dickens novel), or purely fiction (such as "murderous four volts"), the cast and crew of this arrangement will mean British drama having considered racist. And those who have the power to send the actor acting talent, such as Adrian Lester (Adrian Lester), Sophie Aokang Ni more (Sophie Okonedo), Qiewa Te Ejiofor (Chiwetel Ejiofor) forced desperation I had to go to the US to seek more long-term development.

In the United States, television companies have the courage to have enough money to make some movies. They will set the length of each season series set at about 20, and will soon launch the new season. In the UK, the creation of a team more likely to follow a single copyright tradition. Therefore, the commission's time is always very short, and the copyright owners and producers are very cautious. So when a real popular TV series such as "Sherlock" and "Downton Abbey", enthusiastic audiences and advertisers will be angry to find that they want to see a sequel had to undergo painful and lengthy wait.

On the subject matter, the British drama has been giving a feeling similar to each other, every British TV seems to have a doctor or the police duty incorporated into the play, and even recognized as the most emphasis on original screenwriter Peter Bowker , also "Mountain Luo doctor" a drama succumb nothing new content. US drama, screenwriter always come up with some surprising scenes (such as a funeral parlor, 1960s advertising companies, and even the White House), or people did not expect the characters, such as mafia gangs, corrupt politicians and Policemen.

Think of the benefits

Britain has the most fans of the drama, it should be "Sherlock" was. This TV series adapted from the famous British detective story. Although the "Sherlock Holmes" The name sounds a little corny, but this series found a gold producer Steven Moffat and actor Mark Gatiss, their ideas integrated into the Sherlock Holmes stories, which which also has the role of innovation and witty visual distribution. The show will last British American traditional stories and passion combine together to make British drama climbed to a new peak, but also to Benedict Cumberbatch's career into a peak.

Realism: From the movie "today show" to the early works of Ken Loach and Mike Leigh, the British television fiction drama has been filled with documentaries or news style. American TV's biggest weakness is that every detail of the film tend to be highly modified. In the UK, the popular documentary style created a number of directors. Recent representative is Peter exam Jasmine Sharansky, who works in the UK hit "promise" in his realistic foundation applied to fiction drama.

More compact story: many of them British drama that spans decades of evergreen series, such as "Doctor" BBC, the new version of the single-season there are as many as 6 quarterly 13 episodes. But also set season 6-9 but compared to American drama commonplace generous, a considerable part of the British drama is still small and a lot of British drama season only three sets (commonly known as "3 chip set"), a little long. Length short, a more concentrated natural plot, each episode has its ups and downs, like a stand alone movie. Such as "Sherlock" Sherlock reasoning of those nagging little simply to press the pause button several times would not be able to keep up the level. This feature of the fans, the benefits seem to recover no pressure, the downside is that you will definitely get enough, after watching three episodes often have to wait a whole year.

More engaging actor: British drama, there are many "second eye handsome" and "second eye beauty." At first glance, "Downton Abbey," many viewers are Miss Mary likes it up. And she did not look particularly good-looking, but as the story unfold, become three-dimensional image of Miss Mary and cute. Then the audience found her beautiful and so unique. These "second eye rule" applies to many British actor play. Which is typical of Benedict Cumberbatch, this equine actor has a global harvest now countless female fans.

More refined picture: in the production cost, the British drama can not be compared with the deep pockets of American TV, British free public television including BBC, including less than 10, the amount of drama production and the United States is unable to compete. Since it can not expand, then simply doing fine, the British drama production team understand this. Their traditional gentleman leisurely shoot a lot of quality works, such as "Downton Abbey," which set a record in the history of British television production costs, the aristocratic life of luxury manor demonstrated most vividly.

More profound cultural heritage: the British long literary tradition to the British drama has provided an endless inspiration. Many episodes are a remake of literary classics, such as "Great Expectations" and "Pride and Prejudice." In addition, the British drama are generally slightly better than US drama in the depth and meaning. "Black Mirror" is ubiquitous on the Web, many people have lamented the play expressed profound meaning, as well as analysis of contemporary social psychology, probably only British people went for it.

More open, more irony: British gentlemen and ladies clapped drama to play bigger scale than US. British television is no grading, no "common table" and "cable TV station" scale and British ideas more open than people imagine, in terms of the British drama can say "reckless." Youth drama "Skins", the sex, foul language, drug use and violent scenes as routine. On the political front, the British drama scale is rare in the world, in the "Queen's Counsel" and other British drama, Prime Minister David Cameron to get baited by name a few. To look away, and "Yes, Minister! "And" Yes, Prime Minister! "This classic political drama. British drama not only ridicule British politicians, even if it comes to the political system according to insider also broadcast worthwhile.

More radical and more rot: Britain has always had the reputation of "rotten country", while British drama editor would be happy to seize every opportunity to sell rot. In almost every British drama, you can summarize a pair of base situation radiance MSM combination. For example, "Sherlock," If the first quarter is still in the exploratory, stage sporadic selling rot, the second season, the writers began to brazenly let Watson and Sherlock playing a little ambiguous. BBC's new version of "Great Expectations," in this adaptation of Dickens' novel of the same name in the British drama, the drama between the hero and the heroine is actually far less than the base situation he and actor Herbert between. It is worth mentioning that the plays of Harry Lloyd Herbert Dickens is really great-grandchildren. But the British drama "rotten" Although obviously, but also subtle, both for "rotten woman" bites, but not let the general audience dreams, writers can say at this point how to squeeze a little more is always too strong, less one point is too light.
