简介:

  本剧集是BBC 2台2000年正式推出的以青年人为题材和对象的系列情景喜剧,创意和编剧均由Steven Moffat一人担当。三男三女的主要人物构成很容易使人联想到当时正走红(其实已经在走下坡路)的《Friends》,因此很有不少根本没看过本剧的媒体人士和评论家想当然地将本剧称作英国版的《Friends》,而在那些有幸欣赏过本剧的观众们看来,《Coupling》在情节设定、人物表演、喜剧元素的设计和表现等诸多方面所达到的水平,要比《Friends》高几个档次。相比之下,《Friends》只能说是一部“业余”水平的好作品而已。当然总体来说,英剧的水准本身就高于美剧,这和英剧注意保持创意、编剧一体化是分不开的,美剧的创意一般也就为最初几集编剧,以后主要的编剧工作都是由其它编剧根据最初的角色设定来自由发挥,编剧队伍的构成也是不断变化,老的走新的来,造成美剧情节连贯性差甚至前后矛盾,故事往往缺乏深度,人物性格平面化,缺少发展。这都是题外话了。
  《Coupling》的主要人物包括优柔寡断、性格不成熟的帅哥Steve,Steve的莫逆之交、举止语言古怪、总也找不到女友的Jeff,头脑简单、外表性感的“donkey” Patrick三位对Porn、特别是lesbian porn非常热中的男士,以及Steve的前女友、神神叨叨、擅用性感作武器的Jane,Steve的继任女友、Jeff的同事、曾经非常“不羁”(包括和Jeff还有Patrick)过的Susan,Susan的莫逆、对衰老和肥胖极度敏感的美容师Sally三位女士。在第一集中,Steve决定“再次”和女友Jane分手,结果却被Jane三言两语引诱到洗手间亲热;Patrick想把和Susan的关系再进一步,却被告知根本不存在什么“关系”; Susan在洗手间碰到匆忙出来买Durex的Steve,向他表示好感,两人订下约会以后Steve钻进隔间继续……。本剧的主线包括Steve和 Susan之间逐渐正式起来的关系,Jeff寻找艳遇过程中的种种意外以及后来和上司发展出来的一段关系,Patrick和Sally之间若有若无到若即若离再到情深难舍的感情发展,还有Jane在事业和异性关系中的各种奇事,等等。
  本剧在情节设计中所达到的精致和完美程度让人叹为观止,而六位当时并不算大明星的青年演员的所展现精湛演技更是具有顶尖演员的水平,无怪乎播出之后立刻走红大洋两岸,在IMDB、AMAZON和BBC网站可以领略到其受欢迎的程度。2002年底,第3季播毕,故事情节基本告一段落。美国NBC看到这部“英国版《Friends》”在英美两地均广受欢迎,觉得正好可以搬来做2004年终于要关张的《Friends》的接班人,于是2003年大张旗鼓地决定翻拍美版《Coupling》。美国的fans本来以为这是件好事,没想到NBC的翻拍愚蠢地采用了全台词照搬的方法,虽然个人没看过,不过也可以想象到有多恶心,结果只播出一集Pilot就因为骂声太大而整个计划搁浅(这点上美国佬是值得学习的,不象中国有些搞影视的骂声越大越要上)。在这里http://www.nbc.com/Coupling/可以看到这个计划的尸体,还有一些彻底走了味儿的剧照。
  2003年底,本剧获得英国喜剧奖(BCA)最佳电视喜剧奖。BBC已经在2004年正式开拍并播出第4季,不过Jeff这个人物将不再出现,而代之以新角色——经营Sci-Fi书店的Oliver,由Richard Mylan扮演。从已经播出的几集来看,应该说在更换主要角色之一的背景下,基本保持了前3季的水准,但是同时也流露出对前3季中成功情节进行拷贝的迹象,希望这仅仅是偶然。
  Two's company, three's a crowd... so what do you do with six? On average, men and women think about sex every six seconds. Shorten that to every second, and you've got Coupling. It's more than just a one night stand!
  When a couple gets together, it's never just the two of them - they also bring baggage - and Susan (Sarah Alexander) and Steve (Jack Davenport) are no exception. Their baggage is a crowd of best friends and exes who talk about all aspects of sex and relationships on their never-ending quest to find true love. Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps...
  Susan Walker is a beautiful go-getter with an uninhibited attitude who used to date Patrick Maitland (Ben Miles), the sextet's charismatic, cocky player, London's king of conquests - a guy who's just too cool to worry about being smart. Attractive Sally Harper (Kate Isitt) is a beauty therapist who is Susan's unashamedly vain best friend, who aggressively battles aging with heavy doses of moisturizer and men - including Patrick.
  Meanwhile, Steve Taylor, while getting together with Susan, can't seem to shake loose from his vivacious and slightly vacuous ex-girlfriend Jane Christie (Gina Bellman), a woman supremely confident in her ability to seduce anyone of either sex, and who refuses to be dumped unless she's the one doing the dumping. Jeff Murdoch (Richard Coyle) is Steve's "porn buddy" who is, in equal parts, obsessed and bewildered by actual sex charming in his way, but with an uncanny ability to say the wrong thing at the worst possible time. He works in the same office as Susan, with whom he had a disastrous and unsuccessful one-night fling.
  Coupling has been honoured with the prestigious Silver Rose of Montreux, Best TV Comedy Award, and is recent winner at the 2003 British Comedy Awards.
  With a new guy on the scene, a baby on the way, commitment in the air, and love on the horizon, the dynamics of the six friends are definitely changing.
  At the end of last season Susan and Steve discovered they were pregnant (well, mostly Susan), confirmed bachelor Patrick and Sally finally admitted their true feelings for each other, and poor Jane was left on her own, once again.
  But it's not all doom and gloom for Jane. As the new season opens, things are looking up. There's this guy called Oliver, who has his eye on her. Is it possible that lifetime loser in love Oliver might just get somewhere with lifetime loser in love Jane? Trouble is, his apartment is a little "un-edited" and his living room has lost the battle with magazine nudity...
  Susan and Steve are now well and truly an item. So why is he dreaming about being executed by a fetus with an axe?
  Meanwhile Sally and Patrick are settling into their new relationship. But since the dawn of time, men and women have been falling in love - and men have been trying to get home straight afterwards. Can fallen playboy Patrick ever find his way back from the enchanted glade of his one true love and get a decent night's sleep?

简介:

The Psi Corps and President Clark, whose government has discovered Shadow vessels buried in Earth's solar system, begin to harness the vessels' advanced technology. The Clark administration continues to become increasingly xenophobic and totalitarian, and uses a military incident as an excuse to declare martial law. This triggers a war of independence on Mars, which had long had a strained political relationship with Earth. Babylon 5 also declares independence from Earth, along with several other outlying Earth Alliance colonies. In response, the Earth Alliance attempts to retake Babylon 5 by force, but with the aid of the Minbari, who have allied with the station against the growing Shadow threat, the attack is repelled.
  Becoming concerned over the Shadows' growing influence amongst his people, Centauri ambassador Londo Mollari attempts to sever ties with them. Mr. Morden, the Shadows' human representative, tricks him into restoring the partnership by engineering the murder of Mollari's mistress while putting the blame on a rival Centauri House. Open warfare breaks out between the Shadows and the alliance led by Babylon 5 and the Minbari. It is learned that genetic manipulation by the Vorlons is the source of human telepathy, as it is later discovered that Shadow ships are vulnerable to telepathic attacks. Displeased at the Vorlons' lack of direct action against the Shadows, Captain John Sheridan browbeats Vorlon ambassador Kosh Naranek into launching an attack against their mutual enemy. Kosh's deeds lead to his subsequent assassination by the Shadows.
  Former station commander Jeffrey Sinclair returns to Babylon 5 to enlist the aid of Captain Sheridan, Delenn, Ivanova and Marcus in stealing the Babylon 4 space station and sending it 1,000 years back in time to use it as a base of operations against the Shadows in the previous Minbari-Shadow war. Undergoing the same transformation as Delenn at the end of Season 1, Sinclair transforms into a Minbari and is subsequently revealed to be the actual Valen of Minbari legend, rather than a reincarnation. Spurred by the reappearance of his assumed-dead wife (who now works for the Shadows), Sheridan travels to Z'ha'dum, the Shadow homeworld, in an attempt by them to recruit him. However he instead destroys their largest city in a kamikaze nuclear attack, and is last seen jumping into a miles-deep pit to escape the explosion. Garibaldi, during a fight with Shadow vessels, goes missing.

简介:

  1989年,大卫·林奇拍了Twin Peaks: Pilot ,讲述FBI探员Dale Cooper 去双峰镇,调查女中学生Laura Palmer被谋杀事件。以大卫·林奇的一贯作风,整出片子到处充满了神秘事件和诡异疑点,而且没有结局可言。这大概引起了观众的不满,或者好奇心。于是,电视台或是创作班底决定以这个为起点,将它发展成一部连续剧。出于神秘的原因,David Lynch不愿担任导演,而是出任执行监制,找了另外的导演来拍摄这部剧集。结果Twin Peaks第1集就已经是一部续集,这就是为什么在第1集时的片头就有“双峰之前”,交代前面的故事。
  大卫·林奇的《双峰》是美国90年代最为着名的电视剧之一。曾荣获1990年美国电视评论协会大奖,1997年美国金球奖最佳男女主角奖,1991年美国艾美奖8项大奖,1991年美国广播协会最佳电视剧奖,而大卫·林奇也因此登上了《时代》杂志的封面。
  这部剧集与大卫?林奇的电影作品有很大不同之处,人物众多但个性分明,故事线索分支不多但剧情峰回路转,许多人被Lora的死亡之迷所吸引,也为侦探怪异的侦破方式着迷,虽然到最后也在电视版本中也没交代谜底(虽然林奇宣称他在第二集告诉了观众凶手是谁了),但对人类欲望中产阶级的生活的剖解的相当深刻。而林奇的忠实影迷也不会失望,整部剧集所呈现的特异风格,纠结了怪诞唯美与迷离的气氛,都是大卫?林奇的经典本色。其中Lora还被《Time》誉为电视史上最性感的死尸 。

简介:

  「恩赐之地」,或者称「雅园」(Graceland),是猫王所住公寓的别称。在本剧中,它指的是一个特别的地方——在这里,很多东西都真假难辨,而且每个人都有自己的秘密。从外表上看,这栋充满田园诗意的海滨小楼住着一群性格各异的普通年轻人,然而走进它的大门你才会发现里面别有洞天 。
  「雅园」实际上是美国多个执法部门共同设立的一处秘密基地。在这里,来自联邦调查局(Federal Bureau of Investigations)、缉毒署(Drug Enforcement Agency)和海关移民执法局(US Customs)的精英探员们协调开展联合执法行动。他们生活在同一个屋檐下,对外宣称自己是「普通的一家人」——然而他们的生活从来就不「普通」。从他们当初答应加入这项卧底任务时起,他们就已经将生死置之度外。「雅园」是警方从一名毒枭手中没收的财产,他当初给它起这个名字完全是因为他酷爱猫王。可是对那些需要掩饰自己真实身份的年轻探员来说,这里不是他们风花雪月的地方,这里仅仅是他们的「避风港」
