费城永远阳光灿烂,越到后面却越好看
这篇剧评可能有剧透
《费城永远阳光灿烂》第十二季真超好看的一季!
一般情景喜剧坚持几季后难免质量下滑或略显疲态,《费城阳光》是正好反了过来,第二到第五季的质量一般,从第六季起反而一路高走。
这一季可谓使劲浑身解数,从开场的身体互换歌舞剧,到结构戏中戏揶揄犯罪纪录片《制造杀人犯》,情节上更是格外有爆点:Dee和Charlie开荤,Charlie追了十几年终于睡到服务员,Mac出柜,Dennis当爸爸。
E01 The gang turns black,body switch mix音乐剧形式超神,E02 Water Park,E03 a situation comedy尝试laugh track效果,E04 PR nightmare,E05恶搞和讽刺犯罪纪录片,E06 Hero or hate crime,Mac终于正式出柜,E07 PTSDee被striper认为是rock bottom,E08 十几年了头一次The gang tends bar,E09 cricket’s tale,E10 Dennis当爹了,Charlie终于睡到服务员。
S12E01 The Gang Turns Black
After an electric heating blanket shorts out while the gang watches the Wiz they look in the mirror and realize they've turned black. They have to figure out how to get back to being themselves by going through all the classic body switch movie shenanigans they encounter.
《费城阳光》作为情景喜剧的情节是真够连贯的,之前Mac,Dennis和Dee与Frank打赌打输了,就要和一个老人共处一室。
这一集开头,黑人老爷子依然是和Mac,Dennis在Dee家住在一起。一群人正要看电影,说了黑人民权的问题,一道电闪过,等the gang醒来发现黑人老头不见了,而自己在镜子中的形象成为了黑人。
不仅外貌变化,这群人一张口没说几句话就开唱,显然他们还处于某种音乐剧中。
The gang因为肤色发成了黑人,之前做任何事情都能不了了之,现在做任何事情都可能会引起麻烦。Charlie即便在外界眼中是个黑人小孩,可警察对他掏枪仍不手软,就因为他的肤色而导致了天然的有罪假定。
这一集又好看又讽刺。
S12E02 The Gang Goes to a Water Park
The gang takes a trip to a local water park, ripe with personal agendas and ulterior motives. Dennis feeds off his mantra of "the park provides" and takes on a protégé. Frank and Charlie are determined to ride every ride by any means necessary and Mac and Dee get stuck in a tube slide for most of the day.
这群人去了水上乐园,分三线进行,Dennis和小女孩组队行骗,Mac和Dee不听劝告被卡在了管子里,Frank和Charlie称病插队,最后Frank“艾滋”血溅公园引起慌乱。
这集格外屎尿屁的好笑。
S12E03 Old Lady House: A Situation Comedy
Charlie thinks Mac's mom is holding his mom hostage, so the gang installs spy cameras in their house to monitor what's going on. What they end up discovering is the moms are quite entertaining once Dennis makes some quick edits and adds a laugh track to the surveillance footage. Dee wants in on the new hit show, and Frank becomes obsessed with banging Charlie's mom now that he's seen her on TV.
S12E04 Wolf Cola: A Public Relations Nightmare
Franks Fluids LLC is in big trouble after a news segment shows Wolf Cola has become the official drink of Boko Haram. Dee and Dennis help with the PR nightmare while Charlie and Mac work on a scheme to make Fight Milk the official drink of the UFC.
Frank开发的碳酸饮料Wolf Cola被恐怖分子喝了并录了视频发了出来,一下子成了公共噩梦。Dee,Dennis和Frank组队要在24小时把这个热点压下去。
S12E05 Making Dennis Reynolds a Murderer
A cat-woman, AKA Maureen Ponderosa, is found dead in an alley and Dennis becomes the main suspect.
S12E06 Hero or Hate Crime?
The gang fight over a lottery ticket and seek out an arbitrator to decide a rightful owner, who also decides if Frank is a hero or hate monger.
全季最佳,被Mac的动感单车笑到头掉,同时Mac出柜,the gang展现了所有季中为数不多的温情时刻。
Mac要被楼上掉下的沙发砸中,Frank为了提醒他赶紧大喊一句“小心,娘炮(faggot)”,这引发了一个问题,Frank是个英雄还是仇恨偏见者。
在时下西方国家中,如果某人的言语中对某些群体提到了某些词汇是非常具有冒犯性的,诸如faggot对同志,n*对于黑人都是非常侮辱性的字眼。
开场的问题格外引人深思的,但当在危机时刻,为了提醒对方,是不是可以说了呢?因为这些侮辱性的词反而成了最直接的标签。就好比Frank的解释,因为当时事态紧急我要提醒对方啊,我一喊“(faggot)”,连街边的小孩都知道我是在喊Mac。
我个人并不认为Frank是个仇恨散播者,这也不至于到Hate Crime,但他的确是有偏见的人,因为除了喊“(faggot)”来提醒对方,他完全喊“小心,Mac”对方的名字来更直接地提醒对方。
在刻不容缓不容思考的时刻,Frank暴露了自己最真实的想法,因为他这年龄段的人可能会难以接受非主流群体,当然到后面他的转折就显得很感人。
S12E07 PTSDee
Dee dates a male stripper and tries to prove her worth after learning she's his "rock bottom." Elsewhere, Mac and Frank get sucked into a VR war game, leading Mac to develop a case of PTSD.
S12E08 The Gang Tends Bar
It's Valentine's Day and Paddy's is packed. Dennis tries to get the gang to do one single day of work, but they are more interested in a mystery crate in the alley.
S12E09 A Cricket's Tale
We get to see a typical day in Cricket's world and then a possible redemption when his family intervenes. Will Cricket finally move on from the gang, finding love in the process? Will Cricket go from filthy beast to his former self, Matthew Mara?
S12E10 Dennis' Double Life
Dennis reveals he has a baby after his Wade Boggs layover in North Dakota and the gang try to help him get out of the jam, but their suggestions border on the extreme.
