Chapter 1026: Chapter 945 Trailer_2 Chapter 1026: Chapter 945 Trailer_2 “Music shows are tough to do these days,” someone lamented, “Ever since ‘The Masked Singer’ became a hit, we’ve been flooded with music programs, which has led to audience fatigue. That’s probably why Tong Shuwen no longer wants to touch music variety shows and has instead turned to outdoor reality TV, though the state of reality shows isn’t much better than that of music programs.”

“However, such variety shows heavily rely on the performance of the celebrities.”

“The strong suit of Xian Yu and the Yu Dynasty doesn’t lie in their variety show appeal but in their musical achievements. Even for a reality show, Tong Shuwen should consider playing to their strengths and focusing primarily on the theme of singing.”

…

Qi Continent.

As the entertainment mecca of Blue Star, Qi Continent took Tong Shuwen, the director who once helmed ‘The Masked Singer,’ very seriously. They paid even more attention when the Yu Dynasty joined the show.

However.

After watching the trailer, the variety show circles in Qi Continent could barely contain their laughter.

“I knew it the moment the trailer dropped; they pose no threat to our position in Qi Continent’s variety scene!”

“It’s just so unoriginal.”

“When ‘The Masked Singer’ was about to premiere, the anticipation was off the charts, all because the concept was so fresh. Having celebrities sing in masks and letting the audience guess their identities—we saw perfect execution on both the show’s format and audience interaction. But this time, Tong Shuwen has created a program utterly devoid of creativity, handing the spotlight entirely over to the Yu Dynasty.”

“This kind of approach depends too much on celebrity performance.”

“In order for this show to be successful, the celebrities would have to perform exceptionally well, creating enough interesting points to keep the program captivating. However, that’s the most uncontrollable factor. Maybe they’ll do well in one episode and poorly in the next, causing the ratings to fluctuate unpredictably.”

“Just look at the free performance segment by the stars in the first episode.”

Qi Continent didn’t completely dismiss the show, however. They pointed out its flaws, as well as the chances for success.

Indeed.

Variety shows don’t necessarily need to be highly innovative.
