Mr.Brown现实生活居然这么凄凉。。。真悲伤。。。
西班牙叔叔讲笑话那段为什么那么好笑我笑了五分钟……
看完之后,开始喜欢:笑嘻嘻的说blimey, 笑嘻嘻的双手合十摇摇头说a thousand apologies, 笑嘻嘻的一摊手说por favor,一脸天真的说santa maria!!
看老剧最让人难受的不是渣画质 不是糙布景 是喜欢上某个温暖帅气的演员时发现他已经不在了。
Barry Evans讓我想起誰呢? | 早生了四十年啊barry
充分利用语言梗、俚语梗、文化差异,制造笑点,雅而不俗,颇有会心之意,典型英式幽默;70年代的情景肥皂剧就如此强大了,室内戏自有一种温馨的家庭氛围;Mr.Brown超萌,对比真实身世更唏嘘;学生各个富有特色,唱得一出好戏。
看完都忘记怎么说英语了233好!看!谐音梗,口音梗,宗教梗,种族梗,政治梗,1977年的剧,放到现在依然经典。又萌又逗,学会了一句西语,超喜欢西班牙大叔讲冷笑话XD看了男主演员简介,心酸,命运坎坷,生不逢时,这样的才华和颜值放现在得多受欢迎?君生我未生,愿你天堂过得开心不孤单
神剧。英式幽默合集。人物虽脸谱化,但都太他妈典型了。
仿佛一下子英语提升了好多,而且学会了好多其他外语。。哈哈哈哈哈哈哈,虽然笑点有些刻板,不过看下来真是好快乐,每个人都这么傻傻的好可爱。Françoise Pascal 头几集觉得特别臭美,到后面越来越好玩;Barry Evans 生平真的好凄惨,嘤嘤嘤~~ 谢谢花花❤
很久没看过这么好笑的情景喜剧了,语言笑料不会随着时间流逝而失去效力。帅气亲和耐心十足有风度的Mr.Brown怎能让人不爱呢,对学生一脸无奈时的表情可爱死了。
Ali:I was looking where I am going.Mr.Brown:I wasn't looking where I was going.悼念Barry Evans,同时悼念《是,首相/大臣》中Hacker、Humphrey的演员。
今年好像没看什么英剧,补个口音梗。第一季七分吧。各种老外一屋欢,众口难调路远艰。人物脸谱化,更糟糕是种族梗和性别梗都比较受限。还有,高压校长的人设简直是在影射撒切尔夫人嘛。选择不因人而感。随便看看,顺便做点笔记。
Por favor? Blimey! A thousand apologies! Ah so.Santa Maria!1977年冷战背景下能有这种世界各族人民和谐共处的剧,不得不佩服。有人会批评它的刻板印象,可是刻板印象并没有什么事实上的错误。这样的剧以前是不是就这一部不知道,但以后不会再有(拍出来会被白左喷种族歧视、被小粉红喷抹黑天朝)。
老毛你把素丽招了做秘书吧。
Por favor.
仅以无数次笑声,献给伟大的情景剧演员Barry Evans。愿天堂如课堂温暖,永不孤独。
好萌好有爱。又让我想起短暂的教师时光
虽然通篇都是关于外国人的刻板印象这么似乎政治不正确的话题,但大概也只有英剧做得到拍出来不让人觉得侮辱低俗,并且不落俗套
日不落帝国的梦。por favor?
妈妈再也不用担心我的印度英语了!
