VietNamNet Bridge - Except for a few serials on hot issues that are polished carefully in terms of contents and technical quality, the general quality of Vietnamese TV series is going down.

Most of TV serials have at least 30 episodes. But the longer they are, the more insipid that the audience feel. In the past, the audience regretted to miss any episode but now it is no problem even if they miss several episodes. Because there is not much change in an episode and watching one episode, the audience can easily guess the contents of the next few episodes.

All TV serials use actors and actresses who are models, singers or show hosts, but only a few of them are good actors.

It is said that the biggest reason for this situation is the policy. A decree of the Government stipulates that the rate of broadcasting time of Vietnamese films must be at least 30% of the total broadcasting time.

It is not hard to find that the decree has encouraged Vietnamese audience to watch Vietnamese movies but it also encourages film firms to race with time to produce TV serials without paying attention to improve the quality.

They only care about how to complete the target. What will be the quality of art if film producers only think about the deadline of an episode and the number of movies they have to make in a year?
