这是一部在很长时间内影响了一大批都市女性两性价值观的美剧。剧中的4位女主角性格鲜明、各有特色,剧集着重探讨了她们对待亲密关系的看法和自我认知,深刻地刻画了这群现代都市女性的成长曲线。时隔十多年,这部剧的续集《And Just Like That…》在纽约开拍,几位原剧的主人公都已官宣参演。但让人有些遗憾的是,剧中的“灵魂人物”、美丽性感的 Samantha 却不会回归。说到 Samatha,观众们对她的感情是复杂的,即便在剧中,她也不是一个完美的人,但不可否认她极具魅力。对于保守的人来说,她大胆的言辞以及挑逗的举止无疑让人脸红;对于缺少些自信的人来说,她绽放光芒的自信与自爱的价值观让人既“眼红”又佩服;对于不擅长社交的姐妹来说,她又是最好的闺蜜......下面我们就跟着 Norah 老师和外教 Colin 老师一起来聊聊《欲望都市》里这个让人既爱又恨的角色,并学习有关的英文表达吧⬇️ 01. 重新开播 revival n. reboot n. 重新播出 In television, a revival is a television series that returns to produce new episodes after being off the air for a certain amount of time, particularly due to cancellation. 在电视行业,“revival”指的是在停播一段时间后,特别是因取消而重新播出的电视剧。 A 10-episode revival, titled And Just Like That..., is headed to HBO Max with members of the original cast. 原剧组成员演出的10集复活集,标题为《就像那样...》将在HBO Max播出。
