Variety shows are a popular form of entertainment in the entertainment industry, which can bring joy, emotion, knowledge and positive energy to the audience.
However, due to various reasons, some variety shows had to be forced to stop broadcasting, which made the audience feel sorry.
These shows were once all the rage, with countless fans and high ratings, but after their glory, they went into decline.
Hunan Satellite TV's "Happy Camp" is a star program of the station, which has been on the air for 24 consecutive years since its premiere in 1997, and can be called one of the longest-lived variety shows in China.
The show attracts a wide audience with its joyful and humorous style, witnessing the development and changes of China's TV entertainment industry. The hosts He Jiong, Li Xiang, Wu Xin, Xie Na, Du Haitao, etc. are known as the "Happy Family" and are deeply loved and respected by the audience.
Behind the brilliance, however, lies the inevitable problem.
A "gift-giving" incident caused an uproar, revealing that the hosts of "Happy Camp" privately accepted gifts from the audience, including gold bars, crystals, massage chairs and other valuables, and some even as high as six figures.
From an outsider's point of view, this kind of behavior is undoubtedly a typical ***
However, instead of giving any explanation or apology, the hosts mocked and criticized the gifts on the show.
This kind of unhealthy trend has existed for a long time, causing more and more people to feel numb and disappointed, and it has also seriously violated the moral bottom line of the show.
After being pressured by the public, Hunan Satellite TV was forced to stop broadcasting "Happy Camp", which also means that this top program that has lasted for 24 years is officially over.
This decision has made many loyal viewers feel regretful and reluctant, and it has also triggered us to reflect on what social responsibilities and moral standards public figures in the entertainment industry should bear.
We can't ignore the public's expectations of the entertainment industry, which craves not only smiles, but also integrity and justice.
Since it began to be broadcast in 2012, "The Voice of China" has always been one of the most popular programs in China, which adopts the form of "blind audition", providing amateur singers with the opportunity to become famous overnight, and at the same time allowing the audience to see the dazzling talent hidden behind the ordinary.
The slogan of the show is "Let a generation have dreams, let a generation realize their dreams", and in the previous seasons, it did send a lot of talents to the music scene, such as Zhang Bichen, Li Jiawei, Wang Sulong, etc.
However, with the increase in the influence of the show, the originally simple talent stage has slowly lost its authenticity.
The program team has been driven by interests, and they use coercion and ** to influence the mentor's decision-making by unscrupulous means.
And the instructors will deliberately exclude competitors for personal gain, and even change the students they support.
Compared to the original intention of selecting rookie singers and bringing positive energy to people, a tragedy occurred, and this phenomenon of assimilation of interests reached its peak in the eighth season of 2023.
Coco Lee, as a mentor, demonstrated her professionalism and enthusiasm in this season's show, which won the love of the audience and students.
However, during the show, she was subjected to difficulties and suppression by the program team, and was even arranged to perform on the same stage with students with violent tendencies, which eventually led to her falling and injuring herself.
The news that shocked the whole country unveiled the shady curtain of the program team, and their indifference and prevarication were like a resounding slap in the face, hitting the faces sought after by the majority of fans, so that they finally saw the true face of this industry.
Under pressure, he finally had to choose to stop broadcasting the show. When interests become the dominant force, it is no longer possible to change the unprecedented popularity of the voice.
We can't go back to the original beauty and purity, but at least we should remember and miss the positive energy that shows like talent shows once brought us.
"The Venus Show" hosted by Jin Xing is a talk show on Dragon TV, known for its sharp wording and bold views, revealing a lot of the dark side of the entertainment industry, so it has won the support of many viewers.
Venus has no qualms about criticizing the shortcomings and scandals of certain celebrities, and although her rhetoric is very aggressive, she always stands up to justice, which is what makes her charming.
However, due to her bold remarks, the much-talked-about show was abruptly announced to be on the air, which has led to speculation about whether Venus was ** for being outspoken.
A word from Venus after the show went off the air"It's all in plain sight"It has strengthened the public's speculation that those who dare to speak the truth will end up in this way
The voice of the entertainment industry seems to have been warned. In fact, exposing the pursuit of fame and fortune and darkness in the entertainment industry, and providing the audience with a sober perspective is essential, and someone needs to dare to stand up.
The courage and justice shown by Venus arouse our respect and remembrance. Although her show has been discontinued, her spirit will live on.
The Metamorphosis is a film by Franz Kafka, which tells the story of the protagonist Gregor Samtain who suddenly turns into a giant insect, and with it his contradictions and conflicts with family, society and self.
The reality show "Metamorphosis" produced by Hunan Satellite TV has been broadcast since 2006 and is deeply loved and concerned by the audience.
The main content of the program is to allow urban children and rural children to exchange identities and experience each other's lives, in order to achieve the goal of personal growth and mutual understanding.
However, this program, which was once popular all over the country, suddenly stopped broadcasting, causing many people to have questions and regrets.
Although the original purpose of "Metamorphosis" was positive, and it tried to allow children from urban and rural areas to experience different worlds, learn different knowledge, and develop different qualities, it also brought some negative effects in the actual implementation process.
First of all, the show may exacerbate the gap and antagonism between urban and rural areas, making urban children feel that rural life is too backward, too bitter, and too boring, and rural children feel that urban life is too luxurious, too impetuous, and too fake.
Such comparisons may lead them to resentment and resistance to their own lives, rather than gratitude and cherishment.
As a show, "Metamorphosis" will inevitably face the challenge of ratings. With the passage of time, the tastes and needs of the audience are constantly changing, and there may be aesthetic fatigue and boredom with the same program format and content.
At the same time, other satellite TV and platforms have launched more novel and interesting programs, and the range of audience choices is more extensive and diverse, which will lead to a corresponding decline in the attention and attractiveness of "Metamorphosis".
On the whole, these four variety shows have been suspended for different reasons, from the "peak of variety shows" to "no one cares".
Their rise and fall reflect various problems and phenomena in the entertainment industry, and also let us get some inspiration and lessons.
While supporting valuable and meaningful programs, we also need to remain rational, not blindly chasing stars, and not believing in superficial phenomena.
In addition, we should respect and protect the rights and dignity of every participant in the program. I hope that future variety shows will be healthier and higher-quality, bringing us more joy and harvest.
