中国电视剧起步较晚,中国的电视从业人员从一开始就向西方学习,不管是拍摄手法还是节目编排,因此西方的电视剧对中国观众产生了巨大的影响。尤其是在当时国内电视剧数量稀少,水平较低的情况下,收看海外剧就成为当时中国老百姓的日常娱乐之一。从引进电视剧的题材来看,多以19世纪批判现实主义名著改编为主,其原因与当时复杂的社会状况与国家政策有关。 Chinese TV shows started late, and television practitioners in China learned from the beginning from the West, whether they were filming or programming. Western television dramas had a huge impact on Chinese audiences. Especially at the time when the number of domestic TV series was scarce and the level was relatively low, watching overseas drama became one of the daily entertainment of the Chinese people at that time. The introduction of the theme of the TV series from the point of view, mostly based on the 19th century critical realism adapted mainly due to the then complex social conditions and state policy.
