Friends who love watching variety shows, have you ever noticed that nowadays on major video websites, you rarely see Taiwanese variety shows? Most of them are reality shows from mainland China and self-made online variety shows on various websites. channel. Taiwanese variety shows can only be found in very small categories, and it is rare to see recommended Taiwanese variety shows on the homepage.
Before I knew it, even the popular talk show " Kangxi is Coming ", which has the highest ratings
in Taiwan, has been suspended for more than a year. Even 小s and Tsai Kang-yong have come to the mainland to make money. What is ? What reasons have led to the decline of variety shows in Taiwan today?
First, program funds are limited. The production fee for Taiwanese variety shows may only be a few hundred thousand per episode. The host will get a big share, and the rest of the various announcement artists will get a small share. In addition to the staff, props and scenery, etc., it will all cost from these hundreds of thousands. If you dig it out, it is conceivable that without financial support, it is difficult to improve the level of program production. Compared with mainland variety shows, each episode requires a large investment of millions or even tens of millions, and hiring a celebrity costs millions. Taiwan did not allow programs to receive advertisements in the past, which was also a major reason for low funding.. Mainland China dares to invest so heavily mainly because of sponsorship from advertisers.
Second, the innovation ability of the program has been weakened. Many of Taiwan’s current variety show formats still follow what they were decades ago, with no new ideas. Although they occasionally imitate Japanese and Korean programs, overall they are still not innovative enough. In recent years, there have been few impressive variety shows. .
Third, the level of the host. Many relatively good variety shows still use old hosts to replace a bunch of newcomers. After all, the experience and hosting experience of the old hosts are better able to control the stage and can add a lot of points to the show. But now the new hosts are based on fixed It's done in a routine, and you'll get bored after watching it too much. Like Chen Handian , imitating adults. In the past, when "Kangxi is Coming", Xiao S and Cai Kangyong were there, and there were still a lot of laughs, but if you look at the show he hosted independently, it was full of embarrassment...
Fourth, there are few people and few topics. Taiwan is small and has relatively few celebrities, so it is not as popular as in Mainland China. Many variety shows seem to be those variety shows and . Many topics are repeated in each program. Watching too many of them will inevitably make people feel boring.
Fifth, with the development of the Internet, fewer people are watching TV. How often do you turn on the TV now? If it were 10 years ago, most of the programs would be watched through TV, but now that the Internet is so developed, many young people choose to watch various funny videos on video websites or communicate on social networks, which has also led to the loss of ratings. Programs like "The Coming of Kangxi" have persisted for so long because the copyright was sold to mainland video websites.
Generally speaking, the decline of Taiwan’s variety shows seems to be a process from prosperity to decline. In the past, programs like I Am a Singer and The Voice of China were introduced to Taiwan, which caused a great response. Many young Taiwanese expressed that they watched After watching mainland programs, I no longer want to watch Taiwanese variety shows.
The so-called thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. Back then, it was the trend for us to watch Taiwanese variety shows, but now it is the trend for them to watch our shows. When will Taiwanese variety shows rise again? I'm afraid it will be difficult. . .
