As soon as "Thrush" appeared on CCTV, it attracted the attention of the audience with its unique background and anti-special plot, and from the initial disapproval to the rising ratings now, it has achieved outstanding results. This drama has also caused some discussion among the audience, especially some controversy over the performance and image of the heroine Peng Xiaoran. In this article, we will delve into the course of events and the life experiences of the characters in "Thrush", the highlights and challenges in the play, and the audience's expectations for a successful anti-special drama.
"Thrush" is based on the era and tells the story of the public security officers and police who work hard to defend the enemy in the context of the enemy's darkness and my light. This theme is relatively rare on the screen, so it quickly became a dark horse as soon as it was launched, and the ratings continued to climb, and it was about to break through the magnificent number of 3.
The starring Liu Xueyi plays the role of Ji Danyang, a returned mathematician in the play, and his image setting and performance have attracted the attention of the audience. Under the appearance of a suit and leather shoes, he is a character with a deep sense of national responsibility, and his appearance immediately attracted the attention of the audience. In addition to the starring roles, some actors such as Ding Yongdai, Kong Lin, and Liu Zhibing also added color to the plot with superb performances, providing more layers for the overall perception.
Despite the overall success of "Thrush", controversy from the audience over the performance and image of the heroine Peng Xiaoran is not uncommon. The audience criticized the makeup of the heroine in the play, thinking that the female policeman in the 50s appeared like a star in the 21st century, which was quite out of place. Among them, Peng Xiaoran has had outstanding performances in other costume dramas, but in "Thrush", she seems to be difficult to get rid of the image of a big Shanghai actress, and has a certain sense of incongruity with the plot background.
The article criticizes the heroine's performance of tasks in the play. As a public security officer, her task is to protect the male protagonist Ji Danyang, but she often behaves in the plot, and her personal heroic image is highlighted, but she repeatedly makes mistakes in the task, which arouses the audience's unconvincing. This made the heroine, who was supposed to be smart and decisive, become a little silly and sweet, and her behavior seemed unreasonable, which made people shake their heads.
The mention of audience tastes in the article reflects the diversity of the current TV drama market. Audiences may be more inclined to water-injected romance dramas, which also makes "Thrush" face some challenges in the market. Although the ratings remain high, the online voice is relatively insufficient, and the enthusiasm of young audiences to actively follow dramas is also relatively low. This may be one of the reasons why the audience has eaten more eye-catching romance dramas, and the discussion of anti-special dramas like "Thrush" is relatively low.
The article mentions another classic anti-special drama "Silent Oath" by comparison, emphasizing its advantages in terms of scenery, costumes, prop restoration and character profundity. Through the restoration of the 60s, the play's characters, costumes, and props are polished to a sense of age, making the overall look more real and profound. "Silent Oath" has won the recognition of the audience through the presentation of confrontation, competition, and games between organizations, making it a classic.
Despite the success of "Thrush" in terms of ratings, the article proposes that it is still difficult to become an anti-special classic drama. The diversity of audience tastes and the lack of active participation of young audiences in the plot have made this drama lack enough discussion on the Internet. In the future, the crew may need to pay more attention to audience feedback and constantly adjust the plot and character images to better meet the needs of audiences at different levels.
By examining the course of events and the life experiences of the characters in Thrush, we see some of the challenges that the show faces while achieving success. The audience's expectations are diverse and complex, and the crew needs to continue to work hard in all aspects to polish a more perfect, profound, and anti-special drama that is close to the audience's psychology. "Thrush" may find an opportunity in the challenge, usher in greater attention in the controversy of the audience, and become a classic.
