3月28日，反腐大剧《人民的名义》在湖南卫视首播。若光看名字，会觉得这是部标准的“主旋律”，好像勾不起吃瓜群众的观看欲。但事实是，这部号称“史上尺度最大反腐剧”绝对是让人欲罢不能、每天都要搬着小板凳追剧的良心之作！
超现实版反腐剧开启新风尚
作为时下热播的反腐剧，该剧描述了各级政府官员针对高层官员(“老虎”)和基层官员(“苍蝇”)的反腐行动。
The show portrays officials at various levels carrying out anti-corruption actions against high-ranking officials (“tigers”) as well as low-level ones (“flies”).
《人民的名义》由同名小说改编而成，主人公是虚构人物——最高人民检察院反贪总局侦查处处长侯亮平，他正在调查卷入汉东省京州市地产分配案的贪官污吏。
Adapted from a novel of the same name, In the Name of the People tells its story through the fictional character of Hou Liangping, who is the Procuratorate’s anti-graft department director in the show, which focuses on the investigation of a string of corrupt officials who are involved in real-estate allotment in Jingzhou city of Handong province.
这部剧是自2004年起首部描写高层政府官员贪污的电视剧。
The show is the first drama series to feature high-level government corruption as a central theme since 2004.
这部剧想要传达的信息正如预告片中所说：“我们是人民当家作主的国家，一切权力属于人民”。片中还有很多吸睛的场景，如政府官员和金发碧眼的情妇被捉奸在床、共产党的干部藏了满屋的钞票等。
The message is to convey that China is “a country of the people, all power belongs to the people,” the narrator says in the show’s previews, which offers tantalizing scenes from the series, including a government official caught in bed with a blonde mistresses, and a communist cadre who stuffs his apartment with banknotes.
收获各方极高的反响
据中国广视索福瑞媒介研究的调查显示，上周二此剧已荣登上收视冠军的宝座，第一集收视率就达到了2.41%。
