Theater News Base: The outbreak of coronavirus in the last two years has changed many social relations around the world. Changes that even affected the arrangement and presence of the media in the social space. In the media space of the country, we witnessed the strengthening of platforms and media in the Internet, and as a result, a new atmosphere of competition between virtual media and official media was formed. Although it was difficult to produce the program in the Corona, the situation improved by 99 in 1400. The national media was able to pass this stage and produce more than the previous year. However, the “single star” policy of television continued, with a series or a contest always entertaining people. In addition to these singles, we saw a large number of productions that did not satisfy the usual TV audience and had no place in the hearts of critics. In the following report, we take a look at the programs and series that aired in 1400, but for various reasons failed to attract the attention of the audience and did not have a significant place in television polls. The series that have the largest share of this list due to more productions and the competitions that were supposed to repeat the success of the early seasons, but failed. In the list below, the share of the three networks is naturally higher due to their higher output, and the low share of other networks is not solely due to their low performance.

Failed based on number of contacts

Some of the series and programs that were produced in 1400 could not statistically attract the attention of television audiences and were only on the air for a while and ended. Some of these series were aired at the wrong time despite their acceptable quality, and others were not seen due to their many weaknesses. Audiences in recent years have shown that they do not have much patience for the series to improve, and if a series can not satisfy them until episodes 4 and 5, it must state that it is popular.

“Roozgar Javani 2” series
The series, directed by Asghar Tavassoli and produced by Sepehr Mohammadi, aired on Panj Sima for the summer of 1400. Actors such as: Rasoul Najafian, Arya Tavassoli, Sina Karami, Saeed Zarei, Laleh Sabouri and Zahra Davoodnejad played roles in it. The story of this series is that after years, Buick Mirzaei decides to rent a part of his house to a number of young students. The new students become his neighbors and adventures happen to them and the story continues. Hearing the name “Roozgar Jovani” was a reason for the viewers to turn to television, but this did not happen in practice and the memory of the audience did not reach the second season of the series. . In 1978, a series was produced with this title, which was one of the most watched TV shows in its time, but in 1400, when the second season of this series aired, it lost the same old audience. The script that was not related to the first season, the choice of actors who did not have famous faces and were different from the first season, the length of the story and at the same time its meaninglessness, were among the factors that caused the series to lose its audience. Eaten TV in the year 1400. This showed that in addition to the story, the presence of the main and popular actors is necessary to follow a series.

Serial “Zero 21”
The series was co-directed by Seyed Javad Razavian and Siamak Ansari and produced by Mehdi Faraji for the Se Sima network. Siamak Ansari, Seyed Javad Razavian, Roya Miralami, Negar Abedi, Amir Hossein Rostami and Siavash Tahmourth played roles in this series. The story of “Zero 21” is about two sisters who live together on two floors of a building, and their spouses work together in the same company, and they have problems with each other along the way. These problems are sometimes between themselves and sometimes they team up with each other and plan for others. In fact, the series is based on the life of this family. The series is produced in the comic genre, and despite the actors who played roles in it, the speculations were that we would see a comedy series, but after a few episodes, all these speculations came to naught. The series was full of repetitive and clichéd jokes and very clearly failed political jokes. In addition to the script, which contained no satirical text, there was a duplicate frame. “Zero 21” was widely criticized despite the presence of Ansari and Razavi, and was one of the unsuccessful films of 1400.

“Blue Days” series
The TV series “Blue Days” directed by Mohammad Reza Haji Gholami and produced by Parviz Amiri is produced by Panj Sima. Actors such as Vida Javan, Mehran Rajabi, Nader Soleimani and Iraj Nozari played roles in it. This series is about families who have to move from the city to the countryside due to their living conditions and change their lifestyle. The story of this series has a slow process and nothing special happens in it that makes the audience watch it. The lack of comedy situations and funny events is very much seen in “Blue Days”. In fact, it can be said that the monotonous trend of this series does not encourage the audience to wait for the next episode. By showing the climatic conditions and vague dialects, the audience does not know exactly in which village the series will be filmed and what exactly the director intends and what he wants to show. Finally, this series has the lowest percentage of viewers based on statistics.

“Monsters” Contest
“Wonders” has been produced by Seyed Mehdi Hosseini and edited by Mostafa Sadegh Mohammadi for Se Sima. “Monsters” went on the air to show the ability of children. In the first season, Mehran Ghafourian and Nader Soleimani performed this program, and in the second season, Hamed Soltani was in charge. In fact, the director and the producer came to the conclusion that using celebrities to perform alone does not attract the audience and that there is a need for creativity. The “prodigies” were met with much criticism that was somewhat plausible. This program, which was copied from an external sample, did not show creativity even in the use of light and color. In fact, in addition to going on the air without any innovation, it could not create elitism and was more of a stimulus for imitation. Of course, “Monsters” tried to reduce the amount of copying in its second season, and its first step was to remove celebrities from the program, but with a change of procedure, its performance was not very successful. In parts of this program, if a child makes a mistake, his parents will be punished in the game and this feeling of remorse will be transmitted to the child. It can be said that despite the presence of psychologists during this program, in some cases, the proper functioning has not happened. Finally, “Monsters” has not been well received by many audiences.

“Durhami” contest
This contest is the fifth season of “Dorhemi” program, directed and performed by Mehran Modiri, which will be held in the form of a TV contest with a general change compared to the previous seasons and without showing. This program is in fact an imitation of the American mental samurai race. “Durhami” was originally a talk show and was one of the most watched television programs. The performance of Mehran Modiri, the presence of famous actors and the humorous process of the program were not ineffective in this regard, but after four seasons and the change of the program in the fifth season and an unsuccessful copy in the program, the number of viewers decreased greatly. The subject of this contest is not clear whether it is based on public information or a specialized answer question or promoting Wikipedia at all. With the new form that “Durhami” has taken on, it can no longer be said that it is humorous and entertains the audience. With the volume of the audience that this program had in its previous seasons, it has not chosen a smart change for itself and it does not make it be watched again according to the name that brings a smile to the lips one day and attract a special audience. With the change of trend, this talk show to the competition is considered as one of the failed programs of 1400.

A review of series that were unsuccessful by critics

In this section, the names of serials can be seen that may have taken a significant share of TV viewing in terms of the number of audiences, but for technical, professional and thematic reasons, could not attract the attention of critics.

Serial “Chimney 2”
The TV series “Chimney 2” directed by Borzoo Nikonejad and produced by Zeinab Taghvaei was produced for One Sima. The first season of this series was directed by Mohammad Hossein Latifi and written by Borzoo Nikonejad. The story of this series is that Firooz Mushtaq’s family has gone on a trip and on the way back to Tehran, they travel with a girl who, according to Behrouz, is half lost. In the meantime, adventures begin that are impressive. Given that “Chimney 1” was one of the most watched series of its time, the same was expected from Season 2. The series lacked creativity in its new season and told repetitive stories. As usual, Behrouz had seen a girl and had fallen in love with her, and the series was moving forward on this axis. The characters are like repetitive stories and show reactions that are quite predictable. Considering the number of viewers in the first season of this series, “Chimney 2” has a smaller number of viewers and in 1400 it will be included in the category of unsuccessful series.

Serial “Summoning”
“Summoning” a series in the melodrama and transcendental genre, directed by Alireza Afkhami and produced by One Sima, was special for the Ramadan 1400 program. Actors such as Arash Majidi, Maryam Sarmadi, Ali Dehkordi, Reza Tavakoli and Afsaneh Chehreh Azad played roles in this series. In the “Summoning” series, a person named “Kamrani” falls in love with a girl named “Zohreh”. Zohreh is the daughter of “Maedeh” and Kamrani has proposed to her in the past, and Maedeh, because she still loves Kamrani, intervenes in this, which causes Kamrani to die. To escape the torment of his conscience, he seeks a fortune teller to speak to him by summoning Kamrani’s soul, and the story continues in this direction. The series has a humorous aspect rather than a transcendental aspect and is produced in the melodrama genre. It is not clear exactly what the director’s purpose is in producing a series with these absurd themes. On the other hand, he has chosen actors, each of whom in turn contributes more to the emptiness of the story and its boring. The selection of unseen actors for the lead role, even for a series that does not have a good script, was not ineffective in criticizing this series. At first, with the teaser of “Summoning” in which the jinn and the spirit are, many people were waiting for it to start, but as it started and observed its slow and uniform trend, these expectations ended over time.

Serial “Helper”
The TV series “Yavar” directed by Saeed Soltani and Asghar Naeemi and produced by Arman Zarrinkoob, was special for the program of Ramadan in 1400. The series was broadcast on the Se Sima network and actors such as Dariush Arjomand, Arsalan Ghasemi, Shabnam Farshadjoo, Faqih Soltani, etc. played roles in it. “Helper” is a 30-part enigmatic story series. The film has strongly anti-woman content and dialogues and has been widely criticized. There has been a lot of criticism of the repetitive and uncreative story in this series, and it seems that its director is very interested in similar and clichéd narratives. It seems that the director did not try to write the script and again wanted to show the character of Dariush Arjmand like Heshmat Ferdows in another story. Given that Ferdows was very popular in the series “Praise”, but in this series, the repetition of its character was not successful. Zahra Saeedi’s portrayal as a devoted mother and other repetitive roles, exaggerations, many clichés and repetition of the story made “Yavar” one of the most failed and unpopular series. In fact, it can be said that this series was a second-hand imitation of “Praise”. The series “Praise” may have been one of the most watched TV programs in its time, but its repetition with different characters and the presence of its main role with its usual behaviors did not bother the audience much.

“Butimar” series
This series, directed by Alireza Najafzadeh and produced by Mehran Maham, is produced by the Se Sima network in the comic, family and social genres. Actors such as Hamid Lolaei, Marjaneh Golchin, Ashkan Eshtiaq, Mehran Rajabi and Hedayat Hashemi have played roles in this series. The story of this series is about the “Pear” family, who bought four cars from a leasing company before the outbreak of the Corona virus to sell them and buy a big house for the mother of the family, but the cars are not delivered until the father realizes that the company is a scam. He goes north to find his wife’s gold, which he leased to an employee. Although the genre of this series is humorous, nothing happens during the series that makes the audience happy. Rather, he intends to portray the father of the family as a helpless person who is easily deceived and quickly becomes nervous. Stereotyping was seen a lot in this movie. A father who loves his daughter and opposes her marriage, a daughter who is secretly friends with a boy, and a mother who tries to show everything correctly and pretend that nothing has happened. This series not only does not convey happiness to the audience, but also makes the audience say to themselves at the end why I watched this movie. “Butimar” could not find a place in the heart of the audience, despite the role of comedians and popular actors who had a successful presence in TV comedy series.
