As a "big viewer", urban dramas are the most influential themes in domestic dramas.
Farther ones include "Ode to Joy", "It's All Good", and "Little Joy", and closer ones include "Walking to the Wind", "Going to a Windy Place", and "Fearless".
All of them are a double harvest of popularity and word-of-mouth, allowing the audience to stay in front of the TV every night and wait for updates.
However, this year, "Little Day", "Chenghuan Ji", "Old Guy" and "Time is Just Right", etc., are either silent or rotten out of the sky.
Is there really no good thing about urban dramas in 2024?
No, Hunan Satellite TV made a move-
"180-day restart plan" was strongly promoted by CCTV, the drama focuses on the family life of ordinary people, and depicts the bits and pieces of family affection with delicate brushstrokes, it seems that the urban life drama is about to usher in a hit!
A strong conflict story that hits the pain points of family affection
"180-day Restart Plan" tells the story of Gu Yunsu (played by Zhou Yutong), who has the dream of being a screenwriter, who resolutely quit his job and decided to pursue his ideals because of his frustration in love.
In order to clear his head, Gu Yunsu returned to the warm harbor to seek comfort from his mother Wu Limei (played by Wu Yue).
Unexpectedly, the mother of nearly fifty got married and conceived a second child without knowing it, which made Gu Yunsu, who was originally seeking a warm harbor, immediately become a personal companion for elderly pregnant women.
I didn't expect this new drama to really dare to shoot, flash marriage, second child, stepfather, these words stimulate people's visual nerves just by looking at them, don't think about it, there will definitely be no less highlights of the feature film.
However, compared with the urban life dramas that are full of blood and make the audience upset, "180-day restart plan" has two major highlights, which make people go directly into the pit.
First, a life drama full of "new" meaning.
The 180-Day Restart Plan focuses on reorganizing the daily life of a family.
The plot unfolds from the perspective of the lovelorn Gu Yunsu, who originally went home and wanted her mother to "raise" for a period of time, but she didn't expect the reality to be completely opposite, and Gu Yunsu, who returned home, became her mother's "personal nanny".
It is not uncommon for family life to unfold from a female perspective, but this drama is "new" because Gu Yunsu's mother got married in a flash and became an elderly mother.
The pregnant mother who is going forward, the unfamiliar stepfather, the brother who is not related by blood, and the lovelorn her.
The family has very different personalities but gets along harmoniously, laughing and healing, the setting of this new drama is novel and interesting enough.
Second, the perspective is clear, and the family relationship between mother and daughter is deeply discussed.
The relationship between mother and daughter has always been the focus of domestic life dramas, but most life dramas will set the mother and daughter as an opposing relationship between control and anti-control.
And this new drama is not ordinary, there is no "deep hatred" between Gu Yunsu and her mother Wu Limei, the two are the mother and daughter of an ordinary family, because of age, they gradually have a sense of distance.
After Gu Yunsu "returned" to the family, she once again experienced the intimacy of relying on her mother when she took care of her pregnant mother, and Wu Limei, who was taken care of by her daughter, once again experienced the warmth of the "little padded jacket".
Of course, there is no absolutely perfect family relationship in this world, and in daily life, contradictory quarrels are a necessity.
Don't let go when you quarrel, but don't leave any regrets after reconciliation, sincerity is the best run-in agent between each other, and empathy between mother and daughter is also an important prerequisite for maintaining a relationship.
It can be said that the entry point of the plot of this new drama is novel and peculiar, and it tells the essence of home from a sharp angle.
"180 Days of Restart" is definitely the most worthwhile life drama masterpiece in the current Chinese drama market.
Wu Yue leads, and the young actors are too surprised
If a drama wants to succeed, the acting skills of the actors are undoubtedly an important factor, and this "180-day restart plan" has taken out the standards of star dramas in casting, and the actors can act more than one another.
The first place, Wu Yue.
After watching Wu Yue's acting skills, there is no doubt about it, and she has shown quite strong acting strength in dramas such as "Little Shede", "Sweeping the Black Storm", and "County Party Committee Compound".
Among them, the most impressive is He Yun played by Wu Yue in "Sweeping the Black Storm".
In the play, Wu Yue's every performance is exemplary, and she portrays the role as plump and three-dimensional, flesh and blood.
In the new drama, Wu Yue incarnates as Wu Limei, an elderly mother.
In the trailer, Wu Limei had a big quarrel with her daughter at the dinner table, looking at the back of the other party slamming the door, Wu Limei's expression was aggrieved with a sense of not admitting defeat, tears in her eyes, and her sad emotions were very contagious.
It can be said that as long as you find Wu Yue to play, this drama will be more than half successful.
second place, Zhou Yutong.
Zhou Yutong won the Huading Award for the drama "I'm Good in Another Country", and she brought quite wonderful performances to the audience in dramas such as "Love Only" and "Ask the Heart".
In the new drama, Zhou Yutong incarnates the "non-mainstream" Gu Yunsu, with a neat "wolf tail" short hair that looks unruly.
Facing her mother with conflicting ideas, her expression was helpless and sad, her heart was suppressed with great anger, her throat was choked, and she had the strength to not admit defeat.
Zhou Dongyu's performance is "salty and sweet", I believe that in the new drama, she can amaze the four.
third place, Chen Minghao.
The powerful actor Chen Minghao has solid acting skills, and his performance style is both delicate and open, and his performances are very distinctive in dramas such as "Sand Sea", "Ideal City", and "The Long Season".
In the new drama, Chen Minghao plays Gu Kangqi.
In the trailer, he was hugged by Gu Yunsu, with a gentle and doting expression, and boldly guessed that this character was likely to be Gu Yunsu's father. I believe that with the addition of Chen Minghao, this drama will have a touch of brightness.
fourth place, Zhu Yin.
Zhu Yin, a national first-class actor, has contributed textbook acting skills in dramas such as "The True Story of Hot Mom", "Little Shede", and "Flowers".
Her performance is delicate and has a unique insight into the role, and each character can be portrayed in three points.
In the new play, the old drama bone will play Mrs. Zhao, she smiled kindly at the dinner table, she seemed to be an enlightened patriarch, and she was looking forward to it.
fifth, Geng Le.
Geng Le's role as Ma Qiyuan in "Apocalypse" is impressive.
In the new drama, he incarnates the role of Li Jianxiong, and in the trailer, he looks honest and honest, and he is a very honest person.
In the face of his grumpy stepdaughter, he was worried and afraid to speak, and he looked forward to Geng Le's brilliant performance in the film.
In addition, Liu Chang, Han Dongjun, Shen Mengchen and other actors will join the new drama, I believe that with their strength, they will definitely bring a wonderful group drama to the audience.
epilogue
Everyone knows that urban life dramas are the best and the most difficult to film.
A good shot lies in the fact that the threshold is not high, the production cost is low, and it seems that anyone can shoot it.
The reason why it is difficult to shoot is that in the current domestic life drama market, dramas that focus on the traffic password of "dog blood" have long been abandoned by the audience, and if they want to win everyone's favor, they can only bring forth the new.
In the case of domestic life dramas filming one after another, can "180 Days Restart" achieve another success?
I think so.
First of all, the show jumped out of the routine. It is no longer the setting of a family "vampire", there is no mother who is very controlling, and an authoritarian father, but the relationship between mother and daughter is explored from a new perspective.
Secondly, the cast of the show is good. The fit between each actor and the role is quite high, and the acting skills are guaranteed.
I believe that as long as "180-day restart plan" is successfully broadcast, it will become a dark horse of national dramas in 2024, it will not be a problem, let's wait and see!
