#Berlin 2023 episode 2

[dormarunt]

Berlin (Netflix) - episode 2

Back at the scene of the crime/hotel, Berlin accosts Camille in the middle of the street, opening with a winner of a line, "I just got divorced." The woman needs to read The Gift Of Fear (as does anyone).

Anyway, Berlin rambles on while Camille is stuck in movie cliche land and has to change her outfit in the back of a cab and with another passenger there. She does an amazing job though, so you go, Camille!

Special mention to his disagreeing with the woman calling him a misogynist because what would a woman know right?

Roi and Cameron teaming up to do something that they're going to fuck up so badly, and with such far-reaching consequences down the line that you start to wonder about the fate of the heist itself (it *is* a heist series after all). 

Berlin "rocks out" with his peers and it is good.

This man obsessed with bowties - is this a callback? 

Camille tells him "you look like a man who lives in hotels" like it's not an insult??

(side-note - the Opera swicheroo is reminiscent of the Planetarium bit in my latest fic - love that)

Aaaand after hijinx and small-scale mayhem, the Rio-Cameron team failed, which I love to see  <3

Keyla designing this whole VR tech - told ya this girl's a Deus Ex Machina but in a hot (imo) and horny body - in the mid 2010s and instead of, idk, selling it for a whole bunch of money and not doing criminal things?

And I may not get how VR works but isn't her avatar just... milling about in that VR space? It felt like Roi could have interacted with her avatar if he wasn't stopped but how does that-- unless that's not her avatar and Keyla has a VR girlfriend that she gets freaky with when she's in hotels?

Okay so I took this note while watching the episode: "The only common sense thing that came out of this man's mouth" and I can't, for the life of me, identify what I was referring to on the rewatch - if anyone knows what common sense thing left that man's lips, please let me know!

Back in the land of Berlin and the woman he fell in love with via the medium of stalking, drama happens (who knew that she was even married?? They did; both of them knew) there's drama.

And then Berlin gets hit with his own version of "time will bring us back together one day". HOW DOES IT FEEL, HUH?? HOW??

(Cool shot/transition though!) 

And in her own corner, Keyla is following the old cliche of "nerd ingenue hot for the ~Bad Boy/himbo" and you know what? Shine on, you horny diamond!

Wait, she's 36???????????????????????? (Presumably older than Berlin is in this? Lol okay) Love that she sees the age gap as a problem, Bruce IS a baby at 24. 

Oh and since it's a heist movie, they set the scene for the heist, they're professional and successful which contrasts greatly with how they handle literally everything else (which they thoroughly fuck up).

Insert joke about Berlin's stamina:

Oh and we still don't know why he's called Berlin. Everyone took fake names, but apparently they all went for people names, when Andres was like NO I WILL BE A CITY (or a pastry, whatever)

#Berlin Netflix #LCdP Berlin #Berlin 2023 episode 2 #Pedro Alonso in his 30s clearly #(I genuinely don't care about the age; I'll accept he's whatever the plot needs him to be)

ASK EDDIE - July 20 2023

In case you missed Thursday’s Facebook stream of ASK EDDIE.

FNF prez Eddie Muller responds to film noir fan questions fielded by the Foundation's Director of Communications Anne Hockens. In this episode, we discuss “Pier 23” and its connection to the radio program “Pat Novack for Hire”, staircases in noir, “Quiet Please, Murder”, “Desire Me”, “Stolen Face”, familial noir, the noir credentials of “Sin City”, and more. Eddie weighs in on what the last film noir of the classic era was and the first neo-noir. Plus, we discuss the newly coined phrase homme stupide. We wind up the show with a discussion of teen noir. On the cat front, Charlotte does not appreciate the question about the cutest cat in film noir. Want your question answered in a future episode? We solicit questions from our email subscribers in our monthly newsletters. Sign up here. Everyone who signs up on our email list and contributes $20 or more to the Film Noir Foundation receives the digital version of NOIR CITY Magazine for a year. Donate here.

This week’s questions:    

1. Was the Stanford Theater ever considered to host a NOIR CITY Film Festival? What film ranks in your mind as the most important yet to be restored? —Richard    

2. My wife Linda enjoys watching film noir. She particularly gets a kick out of the sap who makes poor judgments after succumbing to the “charms” of a femme fatale. She calls such a dope an homme stupide. She was wondering if you have encountered this anywhere else or if she has coined a new noir phrase. —Michael, Post Falls, Idaho    

3. I recently watched a 58-minute, B noir programmer titled PIER 23, featuring Hugh Beaumont as Dennis O’Brien. I also saw ROARING CITY another under-an-hour picture with two more cases. Spartan Productions also released a third Beaumont/O’Brien flick, DANGER ZONE - with the same format, all based on stories apparently recycled from old scripts for the radio program PAT NOVACK FOR HIRE. Have either of you seen any of the films or listened to the old Pat Novack program? —Michael, Post Falls, Idaho    

4. Do you have any comments or opinions on QUIET PLEASE, MURDER?  —Liz    

5. Any thoughts on DESIRE ME? —Dennis James from Champlain, NY    

6. I don't remember either of you mentioning STOLEN FACE which I think of as a precursor to VERTIGO. Thoughts? —Joe from Suffolk County    

7. Don't you think the kitten in THIS GUN FOR HIRE is the cutest cat in film noir? I thought I read that Hitler invited about Veronica Lake and two other beautiful Hollywood starlets to visit his castle in the 1930s and that they went. Have you ever heard of anything like this?—Arlene    

8. Is it accurate to claim that the multi-story staircase shot we see so often in Noir is an example of German Expressionism? —Bob, Woodland, CA    

9. Have you heard of the Netflix series BABYLON BERLIN? If so, what are your thoughts on it? —Adam from Indiana    

10.  I consider Frank Miller's SIN CITY and SIN CITY A DAME TO DIE FOR Noir's on steroids.  Your opinion, please. —Chris    

11. My question concerns one of my favorite films, 1978's FINGERS. Can you think of any other examples of "familial noir," where characters' lives are dictated by their parents or siblings or ancestors? —Kevin, Salt Lake City, UT  

12. Do you consider, as some people do, that Welles’ brilliant TOUCH OF EVIL is the last noir film of the classic era? And what do you consider the first “neo noir”?—Bill Stewart of Winnipeg, Manitoba    

13. With the 2021 NIGHTMARE ALLEY and now MARLOWE, I wonder if the current picture business is starting to find interest in reviving old noirs. To me, it seems that to cater to a modern, jaded audience, directors have been making these noirs quite violent. There's considerably less censoring -- and more technology -- in filmmaking, but do you envision any noirs being brought back today in a non-R-rated fashion, or would noir have been a more violent genre in the 40's if the production code and technology allowed for that? —Neil    

14. I have a question about a small but important detail re: two of my absolute favorite remarks in Film Noir. They are both spoken in the crackling dialogue in OUT OF THE PAST.  I have always attributed these great lines to the fine screenwriter, Daniel Mainwaring, who wrote the book and screenplay for this movie. But some time ago, Eddie, I thought I heard you mention that another screenwriter came up with these ‘gems’.   If you have the answer, please let me know.  —Craig from Carlsbad    

15. As I understand, OUT OF THE PAST was released in the UK under its original title: BUILD MY GALLOWS HIGH. I was curious if either of you have ever seen a UK print with that title and if there were any other differences in the UK prints? —Dennis, Champlain, NY.    

16. In a recent episode, Eddie said that he hates teenagers and hated being one.

DEVELOPING SPORTS POLICE REPORT: A Violent Confrontation between Kojiro Hyuga and Genzo Wakabayashi brazenly rocks European Soccer Match with a potential permanent deportation in Germany

CONTENT AND TRIGGER WARNING: The following news story contains soccer violence, that is not really suitable for some digital anime readers. READER DISCRETION is STRONGLY ADVISED!!!

BERLIN, GERMANY -- A brutally stunning incident took place during a European soccer match between the Japanese National Junior Youth Team (JNJYT) and German National Soccer Team (GNST), involving a suspected Japanese student from Toho Academy High (TAH), a renowned forwarder and former striker.

(HIGHLIGHT SPORTS VIDEO COURTESY: Studio KAI via JOTX-TV 7's TV Tokyo)

The match concluded in a 6-1 victory for Germany national team, but tempers flared and a violent confrontation occurred between the student athlete suspect and Japanese-German goalkeeper named Genzo Wakabayashi, whose unfolded there at the goal area.

(VISUAL PHOTO COURTESY: Comic Natalie / Rough translation in visual art at the top-left: Aim for the top of the world~!)

The ongoing confrontation took place at the conclusion of their match, which took place during the 2nd new season of the highly acclaimed 2018 anime series reboot known as "Captain Tsubasa: Junior Youth Arc", specifically in the episode between 'Greetings from an Old Enemy' and 'A Professional Player' aired last two Sunday afternoons on October 8th and 15th, 2023 (Japan local time).

While tensions were high on both sides due to the lopsided result, it was Kojiro Hyuga's alleged involvement in a brawl with Genzo Wakabayashi that stunned spectators and sports enthusiasts worldwide. The incident captured in the episodes over the past 2 weekends and was since sparked discussions in the soccer community, as reportedly obtained by TXN Sports for JOTX-TV 7's TV Tokyo.

Mr. Kojiro Hyuga, known for his fierce competitive spirit and aggressive style of play, was seen making punch each other with the aforesaid German-Japanese goalkeeper victim, in front of the JNJYT. This action raised concerns about player safety and the integrity of the combat sport, in relation to soccer alone. Hyuga is known for his powerful shots and scoring abilities aside from this controversial brawl.

His own reputation for Hyuga as a goal-scoring sensation is now in jeopardy as he faces accusations of its brazenly violent conduct. However, his aggressive demeanor on the goal field was often drawing attention, and this ongoing brutal incident with Wakabayashi will likely further tarnish his personal image.

(FILE SCREENGRAB via Studio KAI for JOTX-TV 7's TV Tokyo)

Mr. Genzo Wakabayashi, a German-Japanese goalkeeper from a disclosed graduated student, earns its recognition for his exceptional skills and quick reflexes to catch every single ball to stop the goal by hand. He is seemed to maintain composure, avoiding further escalation of the incident. His rueful sportsmanship highlighted the importance of maintaining discipline on the field.

(LOGO COURTESY: Google Images)

This outrageous incident has raised serious concerns about player conduct and the need for more disciplined behavior in international soccer matches. The Japan Football Association (JFA) and Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) are expected to react to the situation and was yet to release official statement within the coming days or weeks.

At present, two country police forces are now collaborating to issue an immediate arrest warrant after the game in Germany, if Hyuga found guilty of its poor sportsmanship as a soccer sports offender. The said offender may also face permanent deportation for blacklisting Germany country to their hometown in Japan.

As the investigation unfolds, the soccer community between Germany and Japan eagerly awaits official public statements from relevant authorities and the potential implications for the suspected student soccer career of Mr. Kojiro Hyuga.

The incident like this that even the best Japanese players in the world are not immune to making mistakes. It is also a sternful reminder of the importance of sportsmanship and fair play in all levels of the international sports competition.

Checked the Berlin2023 imdb page and it's still only Pedro announced in the cast, no other info. I thought there was something because saw tweets that it's getting delusional to think rodrigo be in the spin off but couldn't find infoon why (i thought other cast members were announced but it's not the case). one thing though: on that one pic pina shared abt the script it says vol1 - do you think they divide into 2 parts?

Hi anon! Yeah, nothing official yet, but nothing to sweat over, because I highly doubt Pedro is the ONLY cast member in the entire thing, but I actually wouldn't mind if he just ended up playing everyone, including his own wives. He has the range.

Jokes aside, I'm ?? about the kinds of tweets you're mentioning. Like, no offense, but at this point I seriously think the people making those types of tweets are the delusional ones. For starters, they haven't announced ANYONE besides Pedro for the spin off, there's no point in judging. Secondly, are they serious lmao?? These are the "fans" who have somehow convinced themselves that Martin was the protagonist of la casa de papel instead of Sergio/Tokyo, and took "Berlin spin off" as meaning "berlermo spin off", but they really just mean and somehow expect "Palermo spin off" with Berlin as a side character. IDK how to break it to them, but Andres is the protagonist, and the rest of us who have accepted this would be content with seeing Martin feature heavily in at least 1-2 eps (though we'd welcome more of him as a major character, but we don't see him as the HERO of someone else's story lmao).

If it was a Palermo spin off, I highly doubt these people would say things like "delusional to think Pedro would be in it at this point" and would be perfectly happy to see 10 eps featuring Martin and nobody else from lcdp, including Andres.

All that said, IF Rodrigo chooses to star in other things instead of the spin off, so what?? I'd be happy for him, all feelings for the show aside! Getting to do what he wants and starring in projects he's interested in. But right now, I'm just not worried about it at all; nothing indicates he won't be in it, and if I was Pina, I'd definitely include Martin in all my scripts (there's no way we can argue that Palermo was sidelined in any way in lcdp; he's clearly a character the writers enjoyed writing for). It's all up to Rodrigo. And tbh, they estimate production in September, but nothing's set- theoretically, they could literally move production back a month or two to accommodate Rodrigo's schedule if he's a major character (and I think he is). Lcdp isn't his biggest project, but it IS one of his bigger projects, so if the pay's good and he enjoys the role/environment, there's a higher chance we'll see Rodrigo joining than not.

ANYWAY, sorry for the rant anon! Not directed at you, just at the naysayers who keep saying stuff like this based on nothing. Back to your question! 2 possibilities; the script is written with each episode as a "part," OR it's divided into 2 volumes, maybe 12 episodes total or a little more/less. I think the latter is more likely, because that's how netflix does things now asdfasdf and I hate it. I like weekly shows, and depending on the content, I also like ones you can binge in a sitting. But these are 2 fundamentally different formats, and the whole vol 1/vol 2 thing tries to shove it together in the stupidest ways, which is why vol 2 of season 5 was fun to watch, but vol 1 just had SO much forgettable filler.

With Berlin 2023, I'm sure vol. 1 will be tolerable though if it just sticks to character backstories and origins, etc. The downside is that if they split it into 2 volumes, 1 will end on a stupid "cliffhanger" (again, totally unnecessary because we KNOW what happens to Berlin after all this, we literally saw him die lmao!). But whatever, we'll have to wait and see!

#anonymous #tbh I'm more 'concerned' about how much of Sergio we'll see in the spin off than Martin #maybe I'm in the minority?? but I genuinely believe palermo will be the deuteragonist of the show with a ton of screen time

Ha Ha Ho? Stadium Ban

Hang it all: an ex-ultra is Hertha’s new president!!! Will Kay Bernstein enact a Pyro-requirement in Olympiastadion? Will Dietmar Hopp be banned from Berlin? We answer all the most pressing questions relating to Bernstein here.

(a very goofy article from 11Freunde’s Max Dinkelaker and translated by yours truly. It pokes fun at questions one Bild journalist posed because of Bernstein’s former ultra connections. Said journalist seemed to have no regard for anything Bernstein has actually said during his campaign and implied him being elected would be “dangerous” for the whole league.)

The blue danger: Kay Bernstein has reached the top!

How dangerous is Kay Bernstein? For Hertha, for the Bundesliga, for Germany? Since yesterday it is clear: the former Vorsänger (person who leads chants at games) of the Berlin Ultra group “Harlekins 98” is the new president of the Bundesliga team. This selection poses many questions and the most important were posed by Walter M. Straten from Bild, with all appropriate restraint. 11Freunde conducted intensive research to find the answers.

Walter M. Straten asks: “Will he make Pyro legal and turn Olympic Stadium into a flaming hot pot?”

11Freunde knows it won’t stop at that. According to the editor’s exclusive information, Bernstein will issue various requirements for the most loyal fans of the old lady concerning future stadium visits, as soon as the first email to Hertha members. For example, starting next season there will be mandatory pyro, with every hertha fan required at minimum to fire one Bengal Firework for every half. What is especially treasonous is that children are allegedly not exempt from these rules. The only exception: whoever tattoos “Scheiß DFB” in big letters across their stomach has to only light one off every other home game. Hertha-Insider Volker Rauch (a name that is a play on words in German i don’t get lol), who spoke with 11freunde exclusively and extensively, knows about additional new rules to follow:

1. Whoever can’t prove that they have any Pyro torches to the ticket control will be shoved into specially prepared tiny hiding places* by security.

2. Otherwise, the primary job of ticket personnel for the new season will be to check whether the fans have smeared at least 50 milliliters of blood on their faces before the game as part of satanic rituals, per Bernstein’s request. Anyone who has too little or no blood on their face at all, must wear a balaclava.

3. Furthermore, there will be a minimum blood alcohol content for stadium goers. Anyone caught with less than 1%, will get knocked out.

4. Whoever drinks liquor instead of beer, must make sure that it is exactly 50+1 percent alcohol.

5. Apropos Alcohol: starting in August conventional cups will not be used and will be replaced in favor of Skull Jugs, custom built from the skulls of the slayed opposing Ultras.

6. Whoever maneuvers a scarf, flag, or jersey from rival fans will receive a lifelong stadium ban.

7. Media representatives, who say Ha Ha Ho instead of Ha Ho He (this actually happened lol) will lose their accreditation for at least one season.

8. Media representatives, that call the so-called “so-called fans” “so-called fans” one more time, will be personally delivered to a stadium guard by Bernstein where they will be forced to watch all the episodes of “My story - the life of...” with Riccardo Basile (i’m not sure the context behind this guy - do tell me if you know!).

Walter M. Straten asks: “Will the people (like Dietmar Hopp) or clubs (like RB Leipzig) hated by the Ultras be insulted and ridiculed with his [Bernstein’s] blessing?”

With this question, 11Freunde has more shocking information to present. Only people who can prove that they insulted Dietmar Hopp numerous times, can get a season ticket for the 2022/2023 season. Fan can upload evidence of this (in the form of screenshots or links to Facebook comments or tweets), on the club’s website until the end of July. Important to note: elementary school insults like “egghead” and “idiot” are not enough. Worse explicit and criminally relevant insults are required, ideally against the the parents of the Hoffenheim investor. All the same, Bernstein will try to reach out to people who have not played a part in these insults and mockery. During the summer break, there will be various workshops with seminars like “Crosshair Drawing For Dummies” or “Mockery Record Keeping 1: This Is How I Keep Track of my insults.” Whoever has a participation certificate to show for it at the the start of the season, is allowed to get a season ticket, even without the participation in the years long of Hopp-Ultra feud. A tip for the noble fan Frank Steffel: showing up at the workshops but only being on your phone doesn’t count as successful participation (he went to an in-person questions/answer session with Bernstein but was on his phone the whole time)

As far as the fight against RB Leipzig goes, the situation is clear: whoever is caught with a can on Red Bull at or around the stadium, will be driven through the streets of Westend (where Hertha’s current stadium is) by other Hertha fans with pitchforks and torches. Bernstein will arrange the correlating change to the club’s rules as soon as possible. Other than that, there will be a Kampl (player for RB) “Palm Tree” hair style ban starting in August for all visitors to Olympic Stadium.

Walter M. Straten asks: Will he ultimately scare away the unpopular 375 million Investor Windhorst?

Despite the fact that Bernstein stressed that he would sit at a table with Lars Windhorst many times during the election, and even re-emphasized it afterwards (“We will try to involve him in the best possible way and achieve our goals with him.”) 11Freunde knows better: It was merely lip service up until now. Actually, Bernstein would like to start the next public mudslinging as soon as possible so as not to get any fresh money from Windhorst and Hertha will have its back financially against the wall. Then the club will experience an extremely complicated sporting season and Bernstein himself immediately comes under pressure. Hm... Well uh.... Hm. Anyway, to effective provoke Windhorst, Bernstein plans to wear a Gegenbauer mask during the first talks with the investor. If the meeting is virtual, he will try this using deep fakes. According to 11Freunde information, he is already in contact with Berlin’s mayor Fran­ziska Giffey, who is deemed an expert in this area, for tips on undertaking this endeavor. An especially bold part of his plan is that Bernstein will not kiss Windhorst’s ring during the first private audience that he is granted. Bernstein does not want to proceed with the courtly love song as of right now. What is absolutely clear: trouble is inevitable.

11Freunde’s Conclusion:

Hard times are coming to Germany. Should Berlin’s example catch on, the leagues stadium’s will become lawless places. Our recommendation for Walter M. Straten and other fans with integrity: emigrate today rather than tomorrow!

De Algemene Verwarring #107 - 19 February 2024

Episode one hundred and seven of De Algemene Verwarring was broadcast on Monday, February 19, 2024, and you can listen to it by clicking on the link below that will take you directly to the Mixcloud page:

Pictured below is, well, you know who is pictured below don't you? Yes, it's The Birthday Party. Last week I saw Mutiny In Heaven, the documentary about the band made by Ian White, and it was fantastic, for several reasons. First of all, it was a pleasant re-acquaintance with the angry, dangerous, aggressive Nick Cave, who I like a lot more than the quiet and sad Nick Cave we have seen the last few years, and I'm saying this with all the respect I have for the man's tragic losses, I mean, I admire the way he copes with all of that, but musically he has lost me a bit. Of course I was too young to have consciously known The Birthday Party, and I don't really remember 100 % when Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds came on my radar, I think I picked up the Kicking Against The Pricks and Your Funeral My Trial lp's up from the Kortrijk library (again, endless thanks to the Kortrijk library with their fantastic collection), but I don't know if that was before or after I bought the 1988 Tender Prey album, but anyway. The Birthday Party, the aggression, the feedback, the unique guitar sound of Rowland S. Howard, bass god and naughty boy Tracy Pew, the always quiet and sober (except that one time) Mick Harvey and the primitive drum sound of Phil Calvert, they were truly a force. The drinks, the drugs, the pills, and the hunger. The loathing of London, but not exactly a rebirth in Berlin. The making of the Nick The Stripper video. Just go see it. Also fantastic was the entry into the cinema of an elderly couple, they were too late so they had to sit on the front row but then looked around and noticed some more empty seats in the fourth row, so they went there, asked some people to move, and then sat there for ten minutes, after which they left the cinema again. Wrong movie? Wrong Nick Cave? Too loud? Who will tell? Anyway, I'm playing Deep In The Woods in the show, a song that I have always liked a lot because it showed the way Cave would slowly move towards what would become The Bad Seeds but still has that distinctive Rowland S. Howard feedbacking guitar.

There is also a lot of other music in the show, from Dead Nittels, Dat En Wat, The Velvet Underground, Boduf Songs, People Skills, Collate, The Vanishing, Violent Change, The Triffids, Drifting, Z'EV, Organ Of Corti and more! And beneath the photo you can find the playlist for th show. Enjoy!

Berlin 1x02 "Anchor and Lobo" ★★★★★★★☆☆☆

#Berlin #trakt

[dormarunt]

Berlin (2023) fresh, vague-ish impressions

All in all? Fun. Ridiculous in parts. Enjoyable. Did I mention ridiculous?

TL;DR - Throughout the whole series, Berlin has a little devil on one shoulder (the thief in him) and a literal erect penis on the other driving all his dumbass decisions.

It's uncanny how much Berlin, with his high-tech creeping and immediately falling in deep and obsessive love reminds me of Joe from You. Although the relationship does provide with moments of hilarity and entertainment (and Camille looks so much like Tatiana I can't)

Ralicia in this?

Related, an actual quote from Berlin (2023)

YOU'RE MENSTRUATING NITROGLYCERINE.

Oh and Andres is still an asshole and a creep who believes in the bullshit he says. :)

#berlin 2023 #berlin Netflix #lcdp berlin #If I ever write again after this fic it will probably be Berlin/Rio. #i did take notes per each episode except the last because its stupid o'clock over here #i'll post eventually #this has been announced some TWO years ago wow #okay so any similarities with the fic I'm currently posting are 1) awesome 2) coincidental and probably proof of what a cliche I am #but then again so is Pina soooo lol

Week 4: Digital Community and Fandom: Reality TV

Social media platforms have proven to be popular and powerful in today's globalized world, reaching every segment of the entertainment sector, including reality television. In this blog, let's learn how Reality TV has shaped digital communities and fandoms. Specifically, we will explore one region - Vietnam.

In simple terms, a program features real people (untrained and/or ensemble actors) in real settings (not studios) acting out events based on their real lives or played by real people. The television creation created is called reality television, according to Kraszewski (2017) (Schneider 2018). In Vietnam, 2023 is called the year of the boom of reality TV shows because, after many years of silence, audiences once again have countless choices for entertainment, from music game shows to reality TV shows. Lively, humorous, drama reality TV, listed as: Masked Singer, 2 Days 1 Night, Rap Viet, The Face Vietnam, Vietnam Idol, Beautiful Girl riding the wind to break the waves, First to make a living, Having an appointment with youth, Hanging out and singing, Brilliant Journey, The New Mentor. (TRE 2023).

However, despite so many programs, quality still does not match quantity (Linh 2023). For example, in the program The Face Vietnam 2023, viewers are completely unable to focus on the talent, qualifications, and skills of the contestants but are often caught up in the never-ending battle of the coaches (Chi & Page 2023).

Like The Face Vietnam 2023, the same goes for The New Mentor program. Throughout all nine broadcast episodes, the audience did not clearly see the leadership talent and guidance of the contestants but only saw the coach focusing on "mouth" to compete for contestants or "complain" about the results of the competitions (Chi & Trang 2023). 

Thereby, it can be seen that television programs are increasingly noisy, lacking moderation, and building many dramatic confrontations despite the audience's reactions. As Pham (2013) argues, "Current reality TV shows are still mainly based on scandals, are not really creative, are still half-baked, and are unprofessional. Reality TV shows in Vietnam are mainly for entertainment and advertising purposes for sponsors but do not carry the true meaning of reality TV shows like in other countries."

Besides, there is also another side that is dramatic dramas and details that have created opportunities for reality shows to become more famous by attracting audiences and viewers to comment on social networking sites such as Facebook, Youtube. Program crews post drama excerpts of celebrities or contestants to attract passionate fan communities to comment, defend and debate a common issue. For Example:

Because those dramas create a community that can debate and share opinions with each other on social platforms, it can be concluded that reality shows in Vietnam have shaped the technical community. numbers and fan communities (Ozok & Zaphiris 2009). However, excessive drama brings negative things. Dr. Nguyen Tuan Anh (Youth Research Institute) said that conflicting situations on television are not only a war between stars but also a war between fan communities. “They argue with each other, even ready to insult and insult each other in cyberspace. These are uncivilized actions that need to be stopped immediately” (Linh 2023).
