I heard that nowadays variety shows that don’t cost money don’t even dare to call them variety shows.
" I am the great detective " each case is constructed in real scenes.
In the first issue of "Robot Hegemony", a 400,000-dollar robot was burned down.
But when it comes to burning money, you still have to bow your head like the big guy Netflix.
"The Legend of the White House" " House of Cards " that even Obama are chasing is produced by them.
Last year's highest-scoring Chinese drama "White Night" also bought the copyright.
Now, the boss is going to do a variety show.
Of course, topicality, variety show feel and texture are indispensable.
"The prisoner is you "
invited the original PD PD of Running Man, PD Cho Hyo Jin, and PD Kim Joo Hyung to produce.
has seven fixed MCs alone, covering almost all MC types that everyone will like.
Yoo Jae-seok , Lee Kwang-soo, Kim Jong-min, Ahn Jae-wook, Park Min-young , Oh Se-hun, Kim Se-jung
can be said to be a very chicken thief.
The positioning of suspense reasoning made people think that they were going to hit " crime scene ".
Some friends who don’t know the situation even think that they are plagiarizing Celebrity Detective...
But in fact, in addition to the elements of suspense and reasoning, the two programs of can be said to be completely different from .
The guests of "Crime Scene" need to play different roles in each episode and participate in different storylines in a centralized environment.
The guests of "The Prisoner Is You" are all members of acting as detectives to investigate the case.
scenes include indoor, outdoor and escape rooms carefully set up by various program groups. I feel the money is burning.
The guests seemed to have strayed into a suspense TV series.
You have to find clues to piece together the plot.
Who is the prisoner? Don’t even know anymore.
may be an NPC who issues tasks to guests, or he may be a spy who infiltrates the detective team.
may also be the guest himself. (In the preview of the third episode, Kwang-soo wakes up and finds a bloody knife in his hand. There is a corpse in the room.)
The plot is true and false. I can't help but doubt life after watching it: What am I watching? Variety show or watching TV series? In the first episode of
, several guests were invited by an NPC named M to play an "killing game" .
M introduced the rules and key figures to the guests, and comforted them that there would be no real dead in the killing game.
The guests simply thought they were introducing the rules of the show, and what was more confusing was that the invitation card of one of the guests said "You play the prisoner in a killing game" .
However, M was shot dead at the scene the next second.
It turns out that everything before was all play within a play , and the real murder only begins now.
What’s even more crazier is that the murderer in the second episode put a bomb in Kwang Soo’s bag.
Do you think it is impossible for variety shows to put real bombs in guest bags?
But the nervousness of several guests did not seem to be staged.
Do you think they dropped real bombs?
But the prisoner himself came out and said: "How could I put a real bomb for you? Of course it is a fake."
Park Minying was dubious and decided to give it a try. Liu Dashen cleverly placed the bomb farther away.
Guess what?
exploded!
Not to mention that Miss Jin Shizheng was holding a snake ( living ) that scared several boys so much that they dared not move at all.
So, are you really doing a variety show? Do you want to work so hard?
Although whether it is props or plot settings, "The Prisoner Is You" is like an serious and suspenseful TV drama with a quality.
But with Liu Dashen, variety shows like A Basket of Pigs and Kim Jong Min basically say goodbye to the word "serious". My stomach ached from laughing the whole time. In the first episode of
, a large group of troops are in a secret room burning their brains solving puzzles. Kwang-soo and Liu Yeon-suk (seven letters of confession) are single-player and accept the attacks of waves of water.
Liu Dashen could not change his bad luck even if he changed to variety shows. In the first episode of
, he thought he was taking advantage and went to the pole dancer to look for clues, but he was tricked into becoming the "female wolf" pole dancer .
Episode 2 Picking Boxes.
Others are at best startled by their own boxes. For example, classmate Wu Shixun of and was so scared by the snake that he started to dance hip-hop.
Our Liu Dashen came with ALL IN.
was first perfectly hit by the mechanism in his own box.
was deceived by Guangzhu again and received an electric shock.
In the end, the young lady was so frightened that she was holding a snake and couldn't get out of the pit.
Although the second episode of "The Prisoner Is You" is getting better and better, it has the potential to become a hit both in terms of production quality and variety.
But the bigger the scene, the easier it is to focus on one thing and lose the other. This is why after two episodes, the Douban score of this show remains at 7.8.
One of the main problems is that there are many MC personnel, but there is no clear positioning. After looking at the two episodes of
, in addition to the Liu and Li duo with their own sense of variety show, and the highly intelligent and courageous Park Min Young. Almost everyone else has little memory of .
Even Kim Jong Min, who plays a funny role, has almost zero presence here.
The duo of Liu and Li, who were both funny and funny, lost more than half of their laugh points due to their disappearance in the later stages.
Anyone who is used to watching Korean TV series knows that in the post-production stage, the jokes thrown by the guests can be amplified into the highlights of the show. A powerful post-production stage can even save a boring show.
The program produced by Netflix only has frigid subtitles throughout.
No one answered the jokes thrown by the guests, and there was no subsequent cooperation, leaving half of the first episode filled with a touch of embarrassment.
Another important problem is that the program positioning is unclear.
Although there are laughs, suspense, and reasoning, the show doesn't seem to have fully figured out its positioning yet?
As a variety show, the laughs are not dense enough, and as a suspenseful reasoning, the cases are not brain-burning enough.
, the high-end version of running man + escape room , seems more like a hodgepodge of popular Korean variety shows.
Although the performance of the first two episodes slightly disappointed me.
However, I heard that the program team took a break for three weeks after recording the first two episodes to discuss the subsequent plot content and post-production, and to allow the guests to get familiar with each other as soon as possible and develop a tacit understanding.
For this reason, I am willing to wait for your third issue with my five-star praise.
