Introduction:
In recent years, the boom in variety entertainment has swept in, but some of these vulgar phenomena have aroused great concern from regulatory authorities.
As viewers, it is necessary for us to reflect on this issue. This article will analyze the five popular variety shows that have recently been suspended, analyze the degeneration of their internal logic, and look forward to the possible future development direction of variety shows.
Metamorphosis: The exchange of heat for the consumption of poor children.
Metamorphosis was once a popular variety show of life swaps.
However, it was criticized for gaining popularity at the expense of poor children, and eventually had to face a regulator's call. The show uses "exchanging lives" as a selling point, especially the identity swap between poor children and rich second generations, which attracts a large number of viewers.
However, this seemingly beneficial swap of lives is actually consuming vulnerable groups and satisfying the audience's gossip psychology.
And the changes of the "rich second generation" in the show are often only superficial, full of drama, and whitewash the hypocrisy of the rich class. This practice of consuming poor children has finally attracted condemnation and regulatory sanctions.
Longing for Life: From laid-back to gossip disputes.
"Longing for Life" originally aimed to create a leisurely and slow-paced life variety show.
However, as time went by, the show gradually turned sour, and it was accused of becoming a platform for artists to consume themselves and create topics. What was originally a concept that promoted environmentally friendly and laid-back living has evolved into artificiality and hypocrisy in the eyes of the audience.
Commenting and criticizing the program team for deliberately exaggerating negative events in order to create topics, causing disputes between artists, contrary to the original concept.
In the face of such criticism, "Longing for Life" had to announce the suspension of broadcasting, and the host Huang Lei also said that he would suspend his lifestyle.
Where Are You Going, Dad": The second generation of stars "spelling dad" leads to potential safety hazards.
In the early days, "Where Are You Going, Dad" featured the joy of the celebrity father and the little cute baby in the outdoor session, which won the love of countless audiences.
However, with the rise of the trend of the second generation of stars "Spelling Dad", the show gradually lost its original intention, and the children who participated in it have become derivatives and seedlings waiting for the best. In order to pursue excitement, the program team has designed too many dangerous outdoor projects, which seriously threaten the personal safety of participants, especially children.
Some obvious safety accidents caused strong public disgust, which eventually led to the suspension of the show, and clearly stipulated that the second generation of underage stars were not allowed to be in variety shows**.
I'm Not a Star": The second-generation star "Spelling Dad" of old wine in new bottles
"I'm Not a Star" claims to redefine the variety show of the second generation of stars, but in essence, it still follows the model of "fighting dad and fighting family".
Through the second generation of stars, he introduced which red star his parents were on stage, and he was still "fighting for resources" to gain initial popularity and popularity.
On the surface, the show claims to break through people's established impression of the second generation of stars, but in fact, it advocates the model of fighting for resources by fighting for fathers.
After seven seasons, the program's score has been maintained at the low line of about 4 points, and finally had to accept the fate of stopping the broadcast.
Chase Me": The end of a variety show that treats human life like a mustard.
"Chase Me" caused Gao Yixiang to pass away due to his disregard for the safety of artists, and finally faced the end of being suspended.
The carelessness of the program team in preparing for the project led to frequent safety accidents, and after Gao Yixiang's death, the program team still insisted on recording, causing public anger.
This variety show, which treats human life like a mustard, is only the inevitable result of its own fault.
Conclusion: Behind the suspension of these five variety shows, they jointly reflect the imbalance of the variety show ecology.
The imperfection of regulatory rules and the lack of a strong moral bottom line of variety artists themselves are the reasons for this problem. However, there is an initial consensus among the industry and regulators to try to reverse the situation.
We hope that in the future, China's TV variety shows can get back on track, return to their duties, and bring more healthy and uplifting content to the audience.
