6,。 ‘Torchwood’ (2006-2011) 《火炬木小組》(2006-2011) Doctor Who‘s earthier spinoff started simple,, tracking the two-fisted alien-hunting exploits of polysexual immortal Captain Jack Harkness, his Cardiff-based lover Ianto and his right-hand woman Gwen,。 But as the series developed — and moves into the complex multi-part stories such as “Children of Earth” and “Miracle Day” — it turned into something like a tense,, taut political thriller with laser-guns。 作為《神秘博士》衍生出的一部更接地氣兒的電視劇,,《火炬木小組》一開始很簡單,,就是記錄擁有不死之軀的泛性戀隊(duì)長杰克•哈克尼斯攜同他在卡迪夫的情人伊安多和得力女助手格溫一起追捕外星生物的豐功偉績,但是隨著劇情逐步展開,,并發(fā)展出“地球之子”和“奇跡日”等復(fù)雜的多線條故事,,該劇變成了一部情節(jié)緊湊又緊張的政治驚悚片,只是多了鐳射槍而已,。
7,。 ‘Lost’ (2004-2010) 《迷失》(2004-2010) From teleporting polar bears to time-hopping super-islands, Lost‘s core creative team of Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse kept coming up with ideas that sent fans scrambling to the Internet to theorize,。 All the while,, the writers divvied a rich mythology into memorable individual episodes, telling stories filled with wit,, awe,, and heartbreak。 從遠(yuǎn)距離傳送過來的北極熊到穿越時(shí)光的小島,,《迷失》的核心創(chuàng)作團(tuán)隊(duì)——達(dá)蒙•林德洛夫和卡爾頓•庫思——不斷想出新點(diǎn)子,,讓劇迷們爬上網(wǎng)搜索并推理下一步劇情。自始至終,,劇作家們都在把內(nèi)涵豐富的神話故事寫進(jìn)難忘的個(gè)人故事中,,飽含智慧、敬畏之情,,并讓人感到心碎難過,。
8。 ‘Orphan Black’ (2013-Present) 《黑色孤兒》(2013年至今) Orphan Black‘s true secret weapon is virtuoso actor Tatiana Maslany,, who’s slipped into the skin of 11 different characters and counting,, from a cockney con artist to a tightly wound soccer mom to a fanatical serial killer。 《黑色孤兒》中真正的秘密武器是演技高超的演員蒂凡妮•瑪斯蘭尼,,她扮演了11個(gè)不同角色,,從倫敦冒牌藝術(shù)家到糾結(jié)不安的足球媽媽再到狂熱的連環(huán)殺手,。
9。 ‘Black Mirror’ (2011-Present) 《黑鏡》(2011年至今) Maybe we won‘t one day be able to download images from our brains like recordings from a DVR,, or block people in person the way we do on social media,。 But the show’s extrapolations feel logical, even inevitable: It‘s less a matter of if they’ll happen,, but when,。 也許無論到哪年哪月我們都無法像從DVR錄像中下載圖像一樣從自己的大腦中下載影像,或者像在社交媒體上那樣屏蔽真實(shí)的人,,但是這部劇中的推理卻感覺很符合邏輯,,甚至像是無法避免的:這些事是否會發(fā)生好像不怎么算個(gè)問題,問題在于什么時(shí)候會發(fā)生,。
10,。 ‘Doctor Who’ (1963-Present) 《神秘博士》(1963年至今) Longevity is the name of the game for this 52-year-old BBC series。 Despite decades of lore,, the premise is winningly simple: A charming alien travels through time and space in a dinged-up blue box,, doing his level best to save the day。 He picks up traveling companions along the way,, and every so often he regenerates into a brand-new body,。 這部有52年歷史的BBC電視劇可謂長盛不衰。盡管故事講了幾十年了,,預(yù)設(shè)的背景卻非常簡單:一位魅力十足的外星人乘一只破破爛爛的藍(lán)盒子穿越時(shí)空,,盡自己最大能力拯救世界。他在旅行途中不斷拉上新同伴,,而且還時(shí)不時(shí)變成全新的模樣,。
11。 ‘Star Trek’ (1966-1969) 《星際迷航》(1966-1969) Nearly every word of its opening monologue entered the popular parlance,。 Nearly every nuance of its actor‘s performances became (in)famous,。 Nearly every science-fiction series to come afterwards owes it a huge debt, up to and including the oh-so-similarly titled Star Wars,。 May the Starship Enterprise never stop boldly going into the hearts and minds of the sci-fi faithful,。 該劇開篇的每一個(gè)字幾乎都成了流行用語,演員表演中的每個(gè)小細(xì)節(jié)幾乎都“流芳百世”或者“遺臭萬年”,,后來出品的每部科幻電視劇幾乎都從《星際迷航》中獲益頗多,,一直到片名聽起來非常相似《星球大戰(zhàn)》都不例外。愿進(jìn)取號飛船能一直勇敢前行,,駛進(jìn)每位忠實(shí)科幻迷的心中,。(滬江英語) |
