Hi everyone ! This is Xiao Tang
Recently there is a battle between YouKu
AiQiYi and Tecent videos including
Aiqiyi’s Youth with you3
Tecent’s CHUANG 2021
And Youku’s
But the 200 men on the variety shows
doesn’t seem to be able to beat the 2 in the drama
Youth with you is surprisingly chill this year
Compared CHUANG full of comedy
and Word of honour, filled with Yaoi
According to
the best way to save Youth3’s sales is by
For every accountFor every account
after watching one episode and
commenting 10 times
Then 1 BTS video for Hikaru
no Go or DaoMu BiJi can unlocked
This will allow Youth3’s popularity to rise
Trust me, it can make pass-byers
become fans immediately
Sad but true
“ So painful”
wasn’t Youth With You season2 keen on
making topics For example
Yu ShuXin the reactor
Luna Qin the reader
“The light yellow dress” Jony J‘s
collapse to the rap of trainees
And all those other rememberable scenes
Did Youth2’s crew go to CHUANG2021
NoNoNo the directors haven’t changed
To he honest Youth3’s line-up is great
The teachers have even jobs too
PD Li YuChun vocal teacher Li RongHao
Rap teacher Wilber Pan dance teacher Lisa of BlackPink
And Yu ShuXin who is responsible for the comedy
But why did they put Yu ShuXin
in a room alone to watch the performances
I feel like I am a fan that
got a VIP ticket to come here and watch given
theses earphones to monitor them and
I have a screen to watch I can see
everthing but there is no one I can talk to
Within the contestants there are ones
that have great talent
For example Luo YiZhou
He’s from military Arts and
loves help other people stretch
In their first performance
he performed traditional dancing
It was at that moment I knew that
he was my “husband”
Can you please befriend
Liu Yu from CHUANG next door Please
Xu ZiMo the strongest vocal
During the first stage
his professional vocal skills was praised by Li RongHao
This contestant is from AVEX CHINA agency
Same agency as
Mika Santa Kazuma Rikimaru and Caelan from CHUANG
A-Lan from Sisters
Who Makes Waves is also from AVEX CHINA
Duan XingXing
the one who was jumped over by member of
ProducePada
During his first stage
he showed great personality when dancing a Girl Group dance
Tony Yu, great at both dancing and singing
He is like a traditional idol
and has a great chance of getting first place
Sun YingHao
Sexy handsome and beautiful
His style is first in the Produce series
Liu Jun a professional choreographer
He was also one of the judges for TNT’s debut
Shi Qi a boy with lots of stories
I highly suggest he should go to
season 2 next year
Anyways, the production team of Youth
is keen on creating emotional scenes
This season was filmed in LangFang
China, the in the same place as the first season
In the first episode
they honoured past seasons
As a fan of this serie
I watched all the seasons
This clip at the beginning caught me in tears
I still remember back in 2018
in the first seasons of Produce series
I was still a student
All aspects of the stages
have been taken care with great professionalism
Every stage contains the hearts of both staff and contestants
But despite having the best teachers
some talented contestants and emotional rewinds
Youth 3(blue)’s popularity is
low compared to CHUANG (green)
The ratings on DouBan
still isn’t posted due to the lack of people rating
Youth series was known for
it’s professionalism within the Produce series
but why hasn’t it gained success
Compared to previous seasons
what’s its problems
First the show has too many unnecessary clips
When Youth3 announced additional airing
I was exited
But the whole 30mins was just teachers performing
On the second day
the contestant’s first stage aired
Once again I was excited
But after the first episode
there was only 4 performances by contestants
Last year in Youth2’s first meet and eat
after half an hour of it it was complained
as too boring
And now this year
they did it again but with contestants meeting media
representatives
At first it seems interesting and
new seeing how contestants react with journalists
There were ones that had extreme
shaking legs due to anxiety
Ones that verbally fought back with the journalists
Ones that had high IQ
And ones that had no manner
The idea is great
but watching it for an hour is too much
We wanted to see the performances
but only was able to see 4 of them Just sad
Back when I watched the first episode
after 20 mins of watching
I was struck by the recalling clips and
the idea of the media meet
So I posted on WeiBo showcasing
my excitement for the future of this show
But as I continued to watch it
I knew I fked up
The performances aired on the first episode was horrible
The audiences exclaimed that
“ Chinese Produce series is done”
If only they aired the
GOOD performances on the first episode
And created topics showcasing their contestants
with a hashtag Chinese
Produce series can still be successful
They could’ve became more successful
but there is no going back.
On the fourth episode’s performance stages
They were probably angry because
of CHUANG’s popularity They were probably angry because
of CHUANG’s popularity
They slit the episode into 3 parts and
aired in on the afternoon and one at night
Aiming to lure the attention of the audience
But the on part1
how the vocal teams came to be was aired
I came to watch ep4 pt.1 with excitement but at last
I feel as if I was joked on
Was the YOUTH series always like this
Am I just too picky on the 3rd season
So then I went back to the first 2 seasons and
watched the first performance
teaming up clips again for each
Season 1 20mins
Season 2 16 mins
And season 3 40 MINS
Please just put the important clips
and edit out the boring parts
Did the production team of
YOUTH3 studied the
“Science of Fooling Others” together
During part 3 5 performance stages was aired
Out of these 5 teams
2 of them were fighting
One of them was complaining that
their Center person was doing bad
Honestly I have to complain
was this team’s other clips too boring
To the point that nothing else
interesting can be edited into the episode?
NONONO
the funny clips was all hidden in the BTS clips
For example in the part where
contestants yelled out their own slogans
I discovered a few comedians
There is Youth’s version of GuLi
(character from Tiny Times)
“YOU “
“ You’ve said that!”
“ You have to work to achieve your dream like crazy”
“Now it’s the time Let’s do this”
There is also a fan of < In The Night Garden>
“I want to dan-” *awkward pause*
“ -ce better ”
“ Good Night “makabaka” *Goodnight
And one that wants to become brothers with me
PD Li: “ yell your slogan out loud!”
Contestant: “Lets be Brothers
And one that is a “talk-a-lot”
PD Li: “ yell your slogan out loud”
1 : “I am 17( his name) right now”
And also one with a PhD for the Science of Fooling”
PD Li “ yell your slogan out loud”
Trainee Duan DanFeng “NICE”
Chen JunHao “hehehehe”
Xiao He “up to you”
Isn’t these clips funnier than
those aired on the official episodes
And also the editing is robotic
Some trainees who are interesting lacks a storyline
For example ShiQi and Liu Jun
One of them is a big vocal and the other a great dancer
One sang a song about bullying in school
The other danced about the mischief for women
Especially this dance
The song and the dance’s idea came from
the korean movie
That talked about a little girl’s mischief
This heavy topic along with this
dance makes me heat-broken
This dance could’ve become a hot topic
But the story behind it was lightly mentioned
and the show resumed quickly
Liu Jun is also a professional choreographer
like CHUANG’s Santa and RikiMaru
Back when Liu Jun and Rikimaru were 15
they danced together
So why is he not worth a depth introduction
Wouldn’t it be more interesting
As if the performance is done
no need for introducing the performer Next
This sort of robotic editing makes me confused
when trying to identify any
So Who are you
Who are you
Huh Who is this
But still there is hidden gifts I’ve found
Gosh why didn’t I discover this handsome man earlier
There is also ProducePandas
they were debated against before airing
At first I thought that the production team
would input ProducePanda’s story
Just like Frhanm Shangguan from last season
And discuss how their styles and skill are
controversial to the traditional viewings of idol
But at the end
They were more like building blocks for
attention to this show before airing
As they were performing
their trembling tummies were highlighted
IDK if this is a positive or negative thing to them
Thirdly the performance edits were bad
The songs weren’t put much thought into either
The performances were as if filmed by a drunk camera man
All these 3 years all these 3 seasons
This fact was never changed by the crew
Looking at the song choosing part
We can tell that the crew might be on borderline to bankrupt
Most of the songs were works by the teachers
Or works from the wife of teachers
(Li RongHao’s wife Rainie Yang)
Compared to season 2 where
there was more variety of themes and styles
and <Play- Youth2)
had millions of views on YouTube
and
where all performances that are legendary
There is at least 1-2 trainees that
were eye-catching in every performance
And these songs had a lot of popularity in it already
But in the first stage of Youth3
it was just too chill or dull
Eye-catching trainees were still those same trainees that
already have high popularity
The other trainees didn’t catch much of my attention
What’s the most heartbreaking is the fact that
the crew cannot stand-up to mistakes
And they try to fast-forward or
edit the “bad” performances
On the top left corner, it says that
No Vocal editing is present in performances
But it seems that a lot of vocal editing was done
The N class’s vocals were edited as if it was a B class
It’s not that vocal editing should be banned
But why say that there is no editing but then do edit
From these 3 points, it’s easy to see that
Youth3’s biggest mistake was that
it didn’t grab the attention of netizens
Youth3’s crew should have recognized
that a show for Producing Idols is also a variety show
You must get people to be interested in the show
and then turn them into fans
It’s rather getting the performances to
become topics of discuss
Or making the show more interesting
Or having trainees that can be
shipped together as “couples”
At the very least
there should be 1 out of these 3 points
If they just wanted to produce a show
for the sakes of Produce series fans it’s ok
But the problem is that
it aired at the exact same time as CHUANG
No one has time to watch both
Youth3 producers probably didn’t expect
that CHUANG would have so many
comedians and skilled trainees
Who stole the attention of Produce series fans
Everyone has a limited amount of time to watch shows
and for people like me who must watch both
I must watch at least 5 hours of the official episodes
And there is also so many side shows that airs everyday
I feel that I am in a variety watching military camp
“ So tiring”
So instead of using tricks
airing to compete with the speed of CHUANG
Making sure that the content is good is the
only way for success
Since it’s only aired for 3 weeks
I think they still have a cure
I am still able to vote for treasures trainees
But the biggest problem is the flow of
the show being too boring and overly excessive
The comedy of the reality parts should be the only parts
the only parts
edited onto the official episodes
For the performances, having better songs
And spending more money on advertising
If the crew put more thought into it
success can be seen
alright then, this will be all for today

YOUTH WITH YOU season3
