In recent years,with the vigorous development of domestic self-made online variety shows,the Women's Talent Show has become one of the more popular types of programs and has received widespread attention from netizens.This type of program takes advantage of the openness and immediacy of the Internet to build two interactive carnival venues online and offline,providing a stage for the young generation to show themselves,express themselves,and release themselves.The series of carnival behaviors and the carnival atmosphere created by the public in watching and participating in the girl group audition show are consistent with the free and happy carnival spirit contained in Bakhtin's carnival theory.Therefore,this article will take "domestic Women's Talent Show" as the research object,from the perspective of carnival theory,select several typical cases of domestic Women's Talent Show in recent years,and place them in the framework of carnival theory.The analysis is intended to reveal its inner carnival nature.First of all,this article uses Bakhtin's carnival theory to conduct an in-depth analysis of the "national","ritual",and "subversive" carnival characteristics of domestic Women's Talent Show,and finds the "national carnival" created in this type of show."It is not a true universal participation,but a trend of differentiation on the level of gender and age.Secondly,when investigating the causes of this type of show carnival,we found that the formation of the carnival was the result of multiple factors.Among them: the combination of technology and media constitutes the objective basis of the carnival;realistic pressure and consumerism constitute the external motivation of the carnival;the cultural core and the emotional expression of the program provide the internal driving force for the formation of the carnival.In addition,this article analyzes the contradiction between the carnival phenomenon and carnival spirit of the Women's Talent Show in China.Under the control of capital forces,the carnival of the Women's Talent Show presents a false carnival prosperity: in the "participation of the whole people".Under the surface equality,there are deep inequalities;the "female carnival"established to subvert the traditional values of women has actually caused more deformed aesthetics and values;the masses are immersed in the entertainment carnival concocted by the Women's Talent Show and lose their thinking.The ability of the carnival finally went to nihilism.Finally,this article reflects on the carnival phenomenon of the domestic Women's Talent Show.As a program producer,we should find a balance between capital power and social responsibility and return to the original intention of production;and media platforms should strengthen the management of issues and create a positive carnival;the public as participants should remain rational in the carnival and avoid excessive consumption.Through the combination of theory and textual practice,this article analyzes and reflects on the causes,essence,and existing problems of the carnival of domestic Women's Talent Show,with a view to avoiding carnival "alienation" of this type of show and achieving sustainable development Thinking.
