The reason why the show with Tran Thanh and Truong Giang cooled down

The Vietnamese game show race is heating up day by day. In this intense competition, Vietnamese producers not only spend tens of billions of dong to invest in game shows and recruit casts, but also spend a lot of money to promote and publicize each episode of the program.

After Running Man Vietnam season 3 aired, the game show market became more diverse, with more “taste” for TV audiences. At the same time as Running Man Vietnam is 2 days 1 night. The two programs are similar in format, investment level, and at the same time gather famous stars of Vietnamese showbiz, considered “arch-rivals”.

Sorry for Running Man Vietnam

From the announcement of the comeback to the successive release of the cast, including famous names such as Tran Thanh, Anh Tu Atus, Ninh Duong Lan Ngoc, Quang Trung, Quang Tuan, Quan AP, Running Man Vietnam season 3 is more anticipated and excited than ever by the audience.

Not letting viewers down, episode 1 of the reality TV show quickly became a hit. According to preliminary statistics, after 9 days of broadcasting, the total number of views of the opening episode recorded 8.5 million. This number far exceeded episode 3 of Anh trai "say hi", when it premiered at the same time. Data from Socialite (from October 1 to October 7), the first episode of Running Man Vietnam rose to the top of the game show rankings of the week, with 408,527 discussions. Following Running Man Vietnam were Anh trai "say hi" (379,455 discussions) and 2 days 1 night (166,596 discussions).

Episode two of Running Man Vietnam received mixed reactions.

Short clips recording games, juggling moments, and humorous "tossing" between members of the reality show also attract millions of views from the audience.

However, the most anticipated reality show suddenly ran out of steam from episode 2, which aired on October 11. Not only did the viewership drop sharply compared to the opening episode, the script of episode 2 and the games were criticized as less attractive and dramatic.

The content of episode 2 is long and drawn out, with the introduction and interaction between the members and the guests. While the program only lasts 90 minutes, the opening takes up 20 minutes, making the overall episode 2 annoying and tiring for viewers.

Not only that, Ninh Duong Lan Ngoc - a member considered to be the most dedicated in the show - got injured, forcing her to sit in one place for the entire episode 2, which also affected the flow of the show.

The games in the stock fighting or name tag tearing scenes, which are the specialties of Running Man Vietnam, were criticized for their lack of appeal. Tran Thanh, Quang Trung, Anh Tu Atus - the three factors that create humorous and attractive scenes for the audience - were the first to have their name tags torn. Later on, the alliance or name tag tearing scenes between members happened quickly and predictably. At the end of episode 2, when Trang Phap proceeded to tear Lien Binh Phat's name tag, then the female singer was torn back by JSOL, it only happened in a flash.

"This episode's name tag tearing part is a bit bland compared to the opening episode. The game's developments are also not interesting. But in return, some moments between Lien Binh Phat and Trang Phap in the "belly bulge match" challenge were staged by the editing team quite humorously, making people laugh"; "The duration of episode 2 is not allocated reasonably, the game's pace is too fast, and the name tag tearing part is too much. The highlight is almost all over the content"; "Maybe Ninh Duong Lan Ngoc's injury forced the producer to change the script. It's a bit of a pity that Lan Ngoc is not participating in the games in episode 2"... are comments from the audience.

Tran Thanh still shows his dedication and enthusiasm through each challenge.

After two episodes, old members like Tran Thanh and Lien Binh Phat still maintain their form. As a host, Tran Thanh knows how to connect the members and maintain the rhythm of the program. He also gives his all in each challenge and is not afraid to argue or "play dirty". Similarly, Lien Binh Phat is still the one who ensures his form in terms of physical strength and agility.

Newcomers like Anh Tu Atus and Quang Trung are getting into the game well. Meanwhile, Quang Tuan and Quan AP, with their gentle personalities, lack of eloquence, and slow response, are somewhat out of place among the cast.

2 days 1 night cooling off

Entering the 4th season, 2 days 1 night - the reality show from the "big guy" DatViet VAC is facing the problem of newness and creativity in format and games with a cast of old faces who have gone through many seasons such as Truong Giang, Le Duong Bao Lam, Ngo Kien Huy, Kieu Minh Tuan...

Although the number of views for each episode in the latest season remains stable, from 3-9 million. However, the discussion and effect of the program are still far behind, after shows like Anh trai "say hi" or most recently Running Man Vietnam.

Similar to previous seasons, 2 days 1 night stage 4 is still the journey of the cast to many provinces and cities across Vietnam, with a series of challenges related to cuisine , heritage and local people. Here, they go through simple games, followed by a conversation, exchange, and "tossing pieces" between members. Truong Giang still plays the role of the eldest brother, leading the program. Members such as Le Duong Bao Lam and Cris Phan are the factors that bring laughter, while HIEUTHUHAI stands out with his handsome appearance, being the "youngest brother" who is pampered by his brothers in the show.

To create a new color for the program, 2 Days 1 Night "recruited" additional guest artists such as Kaity Nguyen, Quynh Anh Shyn, Lam Hung. However, after all, the difficult problem that 2 Days 1 Night posed from the beginning still has no solution.

2 days 1 night cooling down in season 4.

Not only that, in some of the latest episodes, the show has continuously encountered controversy. Specifically, in episode 82, during the castle-breaking game, Le Duong Bao Lam slipped and fell, causing decorative bricks to fall on his head. In the behind-the-scenes clip, the actor suffered a slight cut to his head and had to be bandaged on the spot, but fortunately he was not seriously injured and was still able to continue filming.

Another game in episode 81 involved wrapping actor Le Duong Bao Lam’s head with plastic wrap, which also received heavy criticism. The producer later had to apologize.

"Artist Le Duong Bao Lam's use of plastic wrap is a temporary solution to protect his styled hair, which has holes in his nose, mouth, and eyes, and was done under the supervision of the production team, ensuring the artist's safety. However, we understand that some images may cause the audience to worry about children imitating. Therefore, the organizers would like to send their sincere apologies if this causes any inconvenience or misunderstanding," according to the content of the producer's announcement.

In addition to the format and content being criticized for lacking in originality, the disadvantage of 2 Days 1 Night is the broadcast time. In the first leg, the show faced a big opponent, Haha Family. The next leg is against Running Man Vietnam season 3. If put on the scale, the novelty factor and the attraction from the cast or the dramatic challenges are what makes 2 Days 1 Night lose steam compared to the other two opponents. Therefore, the fact that the show is left behind is also a predictable scenario for observers and reality show fans.
