After I was with my girlfriend, she introduced me to this Jiquan drama that plunged me into the world of the lovely people in LA. I picked an episode to watch, and every time I watched it, I had a different feeling. I was very excited about the launch of the new version, especially the return of the three Bette Shane Alice, which made me even more looking forward to it.

But due to the busyness of many things at the end of the year, the drama review that I have always wanted to write has been delayed until now. I recently bought time and wrote it as soon as possible for my little Yaoyao!

First of all, my favorite BT cable is broken. Although I know that Tina is because the actor has withdrawn from the entertainment industry and is no longer acting, I can't make up a plot to make Bette derail again. At the end of the sixth season, Bette made an affectionate promise to Tina, and hope for a bright future, we the audience As for their blessings, the screenwriters abandoned them all, which really broke the hearts of old fans and destroyed our fantasy of HE ending. I really want to send blades to the screenwriters!

Three old actors:

Bette's graceful aura is still there when she debuted, but after all, she is 56 years old. It is a sad thing to be a beauty, especially looking back on the first season, her healthy wheat-colored skin, bright and charming eyes, lush like seaweed The hair, the bright smile with white teeth, all make people infinitely obsessed. Fifteen years have passed, and although her skin is no longer tight, and time has left a deep imprint on her eyes, her smile is still the same as in the past, and she is still the big B who fascinated all beings.

Bette, who is running for LA mayor, is still a workaholic. She likes her ability in her work the most. She has the ability to look down on the world and control the overall situation. She adheres to her own principles and is willing to absorb different opinions. Work hard for the rights and interests, and hope that B can succeed in the election.

Shane's appearance caused a burst of screams from my girlfriend and I. Shane who got off the private plane wearing sunglasses is still so cool and handsome. The handsome man is also the old handsome man when he is older, although the subsequent bed scene with the flight attendant The plot is a bit awkward, just to tell the audience that Shane is still a stallion after all these years? It's purely designed to meet the needs of the audience, but it's still very fun to watch, hehe?

The first three have achieved great success in their careers, but Shane's success is the most gratifying. Shane's income was the most unstable of them all, as well as those unbearable experiences in her early years and the last episode of Jenny The blow to her was very worried that she would not be able to get out of the shadow of the past, and she has been decadent. Fortunately, Shane is still the same Shane, who can afford a private jet, live in a mansion on the top of the mountain, open stores in Paris and New York, and then move his business back to LA to reunite with old friends. Playboy's Shane has the attributes of a rich woman. The bonus, I don't know how many thousands of girls will be fascinated!

Alice was a character who was relatively indifferent to watching dramas back then, a little careless and open-mouthed. What really likes her is that after breaking up with Dana, she changed from best friend to lover, and then from lover to stranger. The double blow of losing both her friend and her lover at once made Alice unbearable. Every time she thought of her changing Dana's human form. The scene where the cardboard was placed at home reminded me that when I was in love, I was also reminiscing about the good things left by my lover. Alice, who complained about Dana on the radio, was both funny and distressing. Alice was irreplaceable funny in the old version, and she is as funny as always in the new version, especially when she was a stepmother, she was really down-to-earth with her complaints about herself.

Alice's podcasting career has developed into her personal brand, and her views on issues are still so sharp, and she has changed from focusing on lesbian rights and interests to being a fighter for LGBT rights. Who would have thought that it was only a relationship diagram drawn on a whiteboard at the beginning. To be such a powerful show.

In the first episode, when the three of them sat together for breakfast, it reminded me of the fact that so many people had breakfast together, and the grand occasion that one table could not be squeezed could not be reproduced. It was still a little sentimental, but I could see Bette again. The appearance of Shane and Alice is also considered a lifetime series.

Three new actors:

Danni's people are a bit like the fat version of Mr. Hai, they are all second-generation rich, they all have long black hair, and they are a bit childish emotionally. In the first episode, the sex scene between Danny and Sophie is very large, but there is no spark in their eyes. There is no lingering affectionate embrace like Bette and Tina, but there is only mutual love in their eyes. In the marriage proposal scene, it was a bit better. The careful arrangement before the marriage proposal, worrying about the bad atmosphere, worrying that Sophie would not say yes, nervous eyes, relaxation and a smile after the successful marriage proposal made her whole body set up a lot. The acting is still impressive.

Sophie's character design has not found anything likable at present, and it always feels like a character added for political correctness. The image and acting skills are not satisfactory, and there is no strong sense of CP when the marriage proposal is successful. Although I cry, I can't make the audience excited. The only thing that impressed me is the tattoo of flowers on the side waist. It may be possible with the development of the plot. Gradually show more characters.

Finley is taking the route of being sunny and handsome. She looks careless and heartless. She is also a t, but she doesn't have the feeling of carrying a lot of stories like Shane, and she doesn't seem to have a deep emotional line to dig. Shane is really An irreplaceable legend, why can't you be with Carman since you are married, forever resentment!

other aspects:

Among the new characters added, the Asian transgender brother is chubby and stupid. He took the initiative to chase after the person he liked. He also used a lot of careful tricks.

The beauty of LA could not be well reflected due to technical limitations and image quality issues, while the Q generation looks much stronger than the old version in terms of scenery. This is almost the only place where it is stronger than the old version. There are many The iconic landmark of LA, the night view of Los Angeles is particularly fashionable and urban, and the view overlooking LA from Shane's hilltop mansion is really beautiful.

Generally speaking, the appearance of the new actors is indeed not as good as the old version, and the acting skills are a bit jerky, not to mention the emotional filters added by us old fans, so the Q generation is destined to not be as classic as the old version, but after all, it is our youth. Our memories and reboot is also a long-awaited event, and I hope the next plot will be more and more exciting!
