As a loyal American drama fan, do you still remember the first American drama you have watched?

American drama, as the name suggests, is a series broadcast by American TV stations.

As the world's largest film and television entertainment country, Americans' production of film and television can be said to have surpassed the film and television of other countries.

Novel creations, unlimited themes, and investments completely on the production level (and most domestic drama actors account for half of the total investment and even reach the highest 80%). With these as the foundation and the talented actors and directors in Hollywood, it is difficult not to take the dominance of the industry.

Recalling the enlightenment stage of American dramas in China, most people should have entered the trap from the golden period of 2004-06.

Before that, many classic dramas were also broadcasted, such as " Friends ", " Sex and the City ", "X Archives", etc.

Let’s go back to the golden period of the first American drama in the new century. In those two years, the United States produced classic masterpieces such as "Prison Break", " Lost ", " Anatomy Grey ", " Desperate Housewives ", "Heroes", and "Criminal Psychology". Due to the emergence of the first subtitle groups in China, everyone can watch these dramas better understandably, and since then, the door to American dramas born in the 1980s and 1990s in the mainland has been opened.

This golden period passed, and American dramas were silent for several years until the birth of a globally popular phenomenon drama in 2009 - "Vampire Diary" , which opened its second golden period again.

Since "The Vampire Diary", the group of fans of the domestic American drama has gradually increased, and the birth of well-produced popular dramas such as "Bankrupt Sisters", " Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.", " Suspect Tracking ", " American Horror Story ", "Game of Thrones", "The Walking Dead", "Lightning", etc., has led to the golden age of American dramas until 2013.

At that time, major domestic websites were rushing to introduce these popular dramas. Until the implementation of the new radio and television review system in 2015, American dramas began to gradually fade in China.

Some drama fans who like online and don’t know where to find resources slowly left the footsteps of following American dramas.

Fortunately, after that, streaming media in the United States such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon have emerged. The American dramas " House of Cards ", "The Handmaid's Story", "The Great Lady Maisel", " Super Sense Eight Group " and other classics have not only wonderful plots, but also widespread standards. A good drama can always make people get back to the pit in one second. Fans who cannot find resources have begun to take self-sufficient in order to see these wonderful dramas.
