Hilarious talk shows
Hilarious yet thought-provoking talk shows are getting clicks online in recent years, with sharp words and dark humor.
Video site iQiyi's yearly show U Can U BiBi is a typical example. Each episode features people with outstanding eloquence debating catchy topics such as, "Are wedding ceremonies necessary?" "Will you forgive your lover if he or she ran away without you in life-threatening cases?" and "Should people leave cities lingering with smog?"
Commenters say such shows match the tastes of China's younger generation - those born after the 1990s and 2000s - a group that are more straightforward and pursue individuality and freedom.
