Analysis of 1400 comedy series / How did the comedies of the 80’s survive? Mehr News Agency Iran and world’s news
According to the Mehr correspondent, Shahin Shajreh Kohan, in the file section of the “Serialist” program, which aired on Thursday, March 3, with the performance of Pedram Karimi, said about TV comedy series in 1400: “In the past year, two or three series were popular, but most of them And they had many ups and downs. Anyway, this is our showcase. In this basket, diversity and color can be seen. For example, the series “Yellow Situation” was a series with political jokes, or the satire “Colorful Nowruz” was a joke, and series such as “Underground” and “Noon Kh” were also based on ideas. . In the 80’s we usually had one or two comedy series. Night comedies were based on short episodes, but in the 1990s the story became more important.
He stated about the reasons for these changes: part of it is related to the state of society and part is related to cultural changes. From the 80’s to the 90’s, cyberspace appeared and people gave clues and tone to the creators. In the absence of virtual networks, television had a one-way relationship with people and tuned them in, but this is no longer the case. In addition to jokes and good games, a series should have a beautiful story. Respecting the work of great instrumentalists in the past, I think it has become more difficult to make comedy now. If the same greats wanted to make a series now, they would face the same challenges.
Commenting on why reruns of a number of past comedies are still popular, the critic said: “First, a nostalgia is added to this successful work.” Works such as “House in the Shower”, “Sour and Sweet”, “The Accused Fled” and even “Bezangah” are the result of matching doors and boards. In the past, in the absence of telephones and cyberspace, people watched the series with ease. All of these factors, including play, good dialogue writing, and the tolerance of the directors, made a number of works last. In the 80’s, as a result of trusting the artist, the works of Mr. Attaran, the director and the red hat were obtained. At present, some directors say that it is no longer possible to make examples of those works. It is necessary to create a free flow between the artist and the people.
He called the series “Underground” successful in recreating the past and said: “The series” Nun Kh “was a successful model like” Capital “that was able to activate the treasure of ethnic culture. The people of those areas themselves enjoy watching their culture on TV with respect. This is a very good thing. “Colorful Nowruz” was also an entertaining series in its own level and size, and people liked parts of it. However, we need this diversity in every genre of the best kind. “Blue Days” uses humor more than drama, and tells the story in a sweet tone. Pejman Jamshidi was excellent in the series “Underground” and was able to prove himself.
Shajreh Kohan stated about other TV comedy series: “Chimney” series also had many ups and downs. It started very well and was successful but could not maintain its relevance. It was a fun series. In such series, the character is important and the main character is the main character. In many series, the story of Community Day is followed like a flood. If people do not see their everyday words in the series, they will look for it elsewhere. We should see the reflection of the society in the series and see the discussion of the day through our media. The series “Man of Life” is a kind of story that has expertise, if the same amount of work is done on the design of situations, stories and conflicts between the characters, this good pattern can be turned into a good work with more work.
He described the “Yellow Situation” series as having a new lineup, personality and faces, saying: “It’s good to be able to deal with sensitive issues.” The same idea can be developed. The series “No. 13” also starts with an idea for two or three episodes and does not have the necessary content for a compelling series.
The program “Serialist”, produced by Mohammad Barikani and Mojtaba Faraji and performed by Pedram Karimi, is a work of the History, Culture and Art Group of Channel One, which is broadcast on Thursdays at 11:15 PM on Channel One.
