Today’s second update, please recommend, please subscribe!

Shortly after the 62nd Emmy Awards ended, the third drama “The Walking Dead” co-operated by Eleven Studio and the TV station came out. Breaking Bad.” It made the TV station, which broadcasts classic old movies, a cable station that is enough to compete with HB. , SH. The TV station that is comparable to URTE is really unbelievable.

It can be said that the success of the TV station is completely created by Eleven Studio! Insiders vaguely know that the cooperation agreement between the eleventh studio and the TV station is three works, because the TV station has been in frequent contact with the eleventh studio recently, obviously hoping to continue the cooperation relationship, but the eleventh work Room didn’t seem to be in a hurry. Of course, Studio Eleven has such a capital. In recent years, as long as it is a series created by Studio Eleven, it will inevitably lead to the rush of major TV stations. Even TV stations that are incompatible with Studio Eleven can’t help it. temptation, temptation.

Then, whether “The Walking Dead”, as the third series produced by Eleven Studio for cable TV stations, can continue the miracle and whether it will create a new record is worth noting. However, when they learned that this was the first purely zombie-themed work in the history of American TV dramas, many people were stunned: Is this challenge too big?

In recent years this year, vampire dramas have flourished. Apart from the red-hot “Twilight” on the big screen, “True Blood” and “The Vampire Diaries” on the small screen are also endless. The topicality and attention of the series have brought vampire and werewolf dramas that have been silent for nearly 20 years since “Interview with the Vampire at Night” back into the audience’s sight.

But zombies? Although zombies have always been the favorite of Americans and have a huge fan base, it is definitely an unprecedented challenge to make a series with zombies as the protagonists, even if the producer is Eleven Studios, It’s still not completely trustworthy.

Before the broadcast of “The Walking Dead”, the media did not have any doubts, and the voice of maintaining a wait-and-see attitude dominated the mainstream. Many people doubted the quality of this zombie drama, and many people were watching this movie. How long the series can survive, maybe it will be cut if it can’t support the first season.

Look at the attitude of the TV station. Even though this is a work produced by Eleven Studios, the TV station still only ordered six episodes of the first season, which is almost the level of a British mini-series. It can be seen that even the TV station is in a state of unease, but in the trust of Evan-Bell and Eleven Studios, this cooperation was finally reached.

However, the wait-and-see for all these doubts disappeared after the first episode was broadcast, and after the six episodes were broadcast, the voices waiting for the return of the second season had drowned the Internet.

On October 31st, the annual Halloween, “The Walking Dead” chose such a special day for its premiere. It is undoubtedly a gamble to choose to premiere on a traditional festival, because it is very likely that the audience will be immersed in “no giving.” Trick or Treat” events, or the excitement of a masquerade, and there’s no way to sit in front of the TV and watch the episodes. But obviously, the TV station will not regret it. On the contrary, the schedule of the celebration banquet was put on the agenda the next day.

Because the first episode of “The Walking Dead” broadcast that night attracted a total of 5.3 million viewers, of which 3.6 million were from the age group of 18 to 49 with gold content. The best premiere rating and the highest premiere rating for a cable TV series in 2010.

If you add two late-night reruns, the number of viewers of “The Walking Dead” will reach 8.3 million, and the ratings will soar to 6.0.

Even if such data is put on a public television station, it is worth celebrating, not to mention that it is broadcast on a cable TV station. The premiere of “The Walking Dead” easily killed 90% of American TV shows, and occupied a place in the top five of the ratings list.

Evan Bell did not watch the live broadcast in front of the TV for the first time, because he watched the internal preview version as early as September, and there was a slight difference from the version he watched in his previous life, or it was a post-editing change. , as a whole, remains just as engrossing, gripping, and brilliant.

Looking at the bloody, gut-wrenching zombie crawling tremblingly, Evan Bell was not afraid at all, on the contrary, there was a shuddering pleasure, and he recalled in his mind the unfinished creation last time. That half-song, “Waking up in ash and dust, wiping sweat and rust from brows, gasping in chemical-filled air, ah…”

The feeling of the picture that slowly climbs out from the depths of the ground is too real, and the illusion is full of countless mists of smoke, giving the whole melody a psychedelic feeling, and this beautiful feeling comes from ” Long live the life (VADA I haven’t felt it for a long time.

“I’m making a mighty dash, but I’m stuck in Tugu, looking down at the shackles that imprison me, it’s it, the Apocalypse! I wake up, this feeling is deep enough to break my spiritual pillars, welcome to a new era, a new era! Oh! , oh I am radiant energy (.VE) I am radiant energy!”

In Evan Bell’s mind, all kinds of strange creatures such as vampires, werewolves, and mourners began to emerge. They came out of the soil contaminated by chemicals, and the decay and scabs on their bodies were fatally pungent. Breath, blowing. When composing the lyrics, Evan Bell did not choose a simple storytelling method, but used a metaphor similar to the Apocalypse, just like creating a catalogue of games or comics, and put the lyrics in the unpredictable melody. penetrate in.

“Raise the flag, put on my clothes, I think it’s a revolution, we paint the flag red to match this revolution, I’m pushing hard, but I’m stuck, looking down at the yoke that’s imprisoning me , that’s it, the Apocalypse! I woke up feeling deep enough to break my spiritual pillars, welcome to a new era, a new era! Oh, oh, I’m radiant, I’m radiant!”

When the lyrics are pushed to the peak of the chorus, they are not going to a climax like a normal song, but a more bizarre twist and struggle in the sight. This bizarre and almost terrifying excitement is dripping with blood from “The Walking Dead” The images blended together perfectly.

“The system collapsed, the sun didn’t die deep into the bone marrow, I woke up, this feeling penetrated into the bone marrow, enough to break my spiritual pillar, welcome to the new era, the new era! Oh, oh, I am radiant energy, I am radiant energy!”

Evan Bell composed this song after watching the “Walking Dead” pilot, and the whole person was released, not only because the song was completed, but also because the “radiation energy (.VE was infinitely approaching The ranks of the classics, but also because he integrates the complex content such as the sense of picture, the sense of story, and the emotionality into the distorted melody, this kind of smooth sense of accomplishment makes him very satisfied.

Although Evan Bell knew for a long time that “The Walking Dead” would be a success, the grand occasion of the premiere still surprised him. The same goes for Charlie-Claire, the TV’s CEO, who thinks about Evan-Bell’s confidence in ratings when he signed with Evan-Bell, and now it’s all confirmed on “The Walking Dead” Is to let Charlie-Claire amazed.

Less than 24 hours after the first episode was broadcast, the TV station announced that the second season of “The Walking Dead” had been booked for the first time, and it was the weight of thirteen episodes.

The 100% guarantee that Studio Eleven will produce an absolute masterpiece, coupled with the “6.0” viewership rating, really made the entire TV station excited, and they could hardly control their inner ecstasy. There is. The “Mad Men”, which is against the sky, has “Breaking Bad” with a balance of ratings and word-of-mouth, and now has the “Walking Dead” with soaring ratings. The rise of TV stations is unstoppable.
