No characters, no twists and turns in the plot is useless

Let me make a complaint first. The mutant Nima is too weak. As long as the protagonist has a halo, he can deal with it with his bare hands. The protagonist has a submachine gun in his hand. It’s so extinct, look at the new drama ZOO, animals are much better than you!
The well-known novel, it was the genius director David Lynch before him. Hey Pine Town is indeed not easy to shoot, even if the powerful combination of Knight Shamaran and Matt Dillon is of no avail. After watching 10 episodes, the season ended, there was no renewal, and a failure to remake the classic.
Where does the problem occur? After eating a bowl of Mala Tang and riding a horse in Uniqlo, I finally found an answer that I could convince myself.
Lynch first made a movie back then, and then the audience felt that you didn’t solve the mystery, and their curiosity greatly increased. Only then did you have a two-season 30-episode version of the Shuangfeng TV series. Fans who are familiar with Lynch can replenish that version. Tonal, mysterious atmosphere, weird characters, and the suspenseful atmosphere in the air. Enter the suspense and solve the case, you will find yourself getting deeper and deeper, mysticism, science fiction, religion, all the mysteries you want and not want. (Ps: There are also various big beauties, such as Chen Chong!) Even so, because the TV series is greatly influenced by the TV station, you will find that the second season is obviously a bit messy, and the audience's emotions are getting stronger and stronger, but Even so, Shuangfeng, with excellent characters and atmosphere, became a classic of that era and a symbol of cult. (It is said that Mulholland also filmed the pilot tape of the episode, but no one saw it.) To
remake the classic, you must find your own way. The new version of the story will be revealed to you immediately after playing two episodes of suspense. , We are a science fiction story. Time and space are hundreds of years away. The people in the town are the last human beings. Scientist Pilcher painstakingly persuades the male protagonist. It’s not easy for me. I’m not doing this for myself. I'm for all mankind, it's hard for me!
Maybe the script teacher here still thinks that I'm pretty awesome. You see, I don't take the usual path and don't treat the answer as the answer. Isn't it surpassing the predecessors?
Yes! Not really! This is indeed a good practice, and it can surprise the audience. The key is, what are your distinctive styles and selling points?
Here is the time to complain: First of all, the plot is too fast, and the characters are not formed at all. After reading it, my friends think about which character is truly flesh and blood, which relationship in it moved you, and all the characters in it are struggling to cope with the plot and are totally unconvincing. Scientists don't believe that everyone can handle the truth calmly, and they assume that they are a control freak of God. Then you have shown that you have accomplished such a great feat. Do you have to beg our male protagonist every day? Can't you think of a powerful method, and rely on a sheriff to torture everyone to manage this small town every time? Those minions who know the truth and help scientists manage the town, can they not write that they think scientists are the savior, can they write that how many people are controlled by power and desire? Those civilians and children (the first generation) are also too well subdued and brainwashed, it can only make people feel that they are not enough IQ.
Maybe you think I am an angry youth. Otherwise, how do you write this drama? Of course I can’t tell you the answer. I can only say that the time has passed. What is the age now? After the Prism Gate incident, the whole world cannot tolerate the forced freedom brutality of this state machine and the behavior of prying into the privacy of others. How can you let it go? I am moved by the scientist's bitterness. In this case, why don't you just stare at his control desire and abnormal psychology? !
The love triangle between the hero and heroine is also inexplicable. The issue of love and trust is also a hastily ended. Female No.1 is still telling the hero not to mess around and talk too much. The next minute he will turn into a rebel leader and go to bomb the fence. . Why don't you have a plan to call our actor early? Can't you see him resisting this small town so much?
Okay, let’s not talk about it. Seriously, all of this seems to me to sacrifice characters to make the plot twists and turns. Looking at today’s American dramas, in addition to those with fixed ratings, the ratings and reputation are outstanding. Which of the episodes does not rely on characters to win. Breaking Bad, advertising madman, women's prison, ice and blood storm, true detective, ice and fire, tyrant... I can count until tomorrow morning.
What I mean is very simple, any twists and turns will be in vain without the support of characters.
Back then, Shuangfeng was criticized for its slow-paced plot, but the audience was criticized and the ratings were still overwhelming. I won't repeat the reason.
Okay, the spoilers are also available, so it's up to you to see your choice.
