冤家成双对第三季剧情简介
本(🔨)剧集是BBC 2台2000年正式推出的以青年人为题材和(hé )对象的系列情景喜剧，创意和编(🎾)剧均由Steven Moffat一(yī )(🕔)人担当。三男(nán )三女的主要人物(wù )构成很容易使(shǐ )人联想(xiǎng )到当时正走红（其实已经在走下坡路）的《Friends》，因此很有不少根本没看过本剧的媒体人士和评论家想当然地将本剧称作英国版的《Friends》，而在那些有幸欣赏过本剧的观众(🎋)们看来，《Coupling》在情节设定、人物表演、喜剧元素的设计和表现等诸多方面所(suǒ )达到的水平，要(😝)比《Friends》高几个档次。相比之下，《Friends》只能说是(🔙)一部“业余(yú )”水平的好作品而已。当然总体来说，英剧(🚻)的(🍺)水准本身就高于美剧，这和(hé )(✖)英剧注意保持创意、编剧一体化是分(👅)不开的(🔬)，美剧的创意一般也就为(👼)最初几(jǐ )(⛅)集编剧，以后主要的(de )编剧工作都是(👆)由其它编剧根据最初的角色设定来(🕌)自由发(😼)挥，编剧队伍的构成也是不断变化，老的走新的来，造成美剧情节连贯性差(chà )甚至前后(hòu )矛盾(dùn )，故事往往缺乏深度，人物性(xìng )格平面化，缺(quē )少发展。这都是题外话了。
《Coupling》的(🌟)主要人物包括优柔寡断(🥘)、性格(gé )不成熟的帅哥Steve，Steve的莫逆之交、举止语言古怪、总也找不到女友的Jeff，头脑简单、外(wài )表性感的“donkey” Patrick三位对Porn、特别(🈵)是lesbian porn非常热中的(🐺)男士，以及Steve的前女(nǚ )友、神神叨叨、擅用性感作武器(👑)的Jane，Steve的(🐑)继任女友、Jeff的同事、曾经非常“不羁”（包括和Jeff还有Patrick）过的Susan，Susan的莫逆、对(☔)衰老和(hé )肥胖(pàng )极(🌚)度敏感的美容师Sally三位女士。在第一集中，Steve决定“再次(cì )”和女友(yǒu )Jane分手，结果却被Jane三言两语引(yǐn )诱到洗手间亲(📥)热；Patrick想把和Susan的(de )关系再进一步，却被告知根本不存在什么“关(guān )系”； Susan在(📿)洗手间(🐕)碰到(dào )匆忙出来(lái )买(mǎi )Durex的Steve，向他表示好感，两人订下约会以后(♟)Steve钻进隔间继续……。本剧的主线(📎)包括Steve和 Susan之间逐渐正式起来的关系，Jeff寻找艳遇过程(chéng )中的种种意外以及后来和上司发(fā )展出来的一段关系，Patrick和Sally之(🍟)间若有若无到若即若离再到情深难舍的感情发展，还有Jane在事业和异性关(guān )系中的各种奇事，等等。
本剧在情(qíng )节设计中所达到的(de )精致和完美程度让人叹为(wéi )观止(⛺)，而六位当时并不算(suàn )大(🚳)明(🤪)星的青(qīng )年演员的所展现精湛演技更是具有顶尖演(🥔)员的水(🛹)平，无怪乎播出之后立刻(kè )走红(hóng )大洋两岸，在(🌹)IMDB、AMAZON和BBC网站可以领略到其(qí )受欢迎的程度。2002年底，第3季播毕，故事情节基本告一段落。美国NBC看到这部“英国版《Friends》”在英美两地均广受欢迎，觉得正好可以搬来做2004年终于要关张的《Friends》的接班人，于是2003年大张旗鼓(gǔ )地决定翻拍美版《Coupling》。美国的fans本来以为(🙄)这(👂)是件好事，没想到NBC的翻拍愚蠢地采(💠)用了全台词(cí )照搬的方法(fǎ )，虽然个人没看过，不过也可(🍥)以想象到有(yǒu )多恶心，结果只播出一集Pilot就因(🧚)为骂声太大(dà )而整个计划搁浅（这点上美国佬是值得(🎒)学习(xí )的，不象中国有些(🤯)搞影视的骂(🖌)声越(yuè )大越要上）。在这里http://www.nbc.com/Coupling/可以看到(dào )这个计划的尸体，还有一些彻底走了味儿(⏹)的剧照。
2003年(nián )底，本剧(🧡)获得英国喜剧奖（BCA）最佳电视(🕋)喜剧奖。BBC已经在2004年正式开拍并播出第4季，不过(🏊)Jeff这个人物将(jiāng )不再(zài )出现，而(ér )代之以新角色—(🎊)—经(jīng )营Sci-Fi书店的Oliver，由Richard Mylan扮演。从已经(🏴)播出的几集(jí )来(➗)看，应该说在更换主要角色(👣)之(➡)一的背景下，基本保(bǎo )持了前3季的水准，但是同时也流露出对前3季(jì )中成功情节进行拷贝的迹象，希望这仅仅是偶然。
(🚞) Two's company, three's a crowd... so what do you do with six? On average, men and women think about sex every six seconds. Shorten that to every second, and you've got Coupling. It's more than just a one night stand!
When a couple gets together, it's never just the two of them - they also bring baggage - and Susan (Sarah Alexander) and Steve (Jack Davenport) are no exception. Their baggage is a crowd of best friends and exes who talk about all aspects of sex and relationships on their never-ending quest to find true love. Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps...
Susan Walker is a beautiful go-getter with an uninhibited attitude who used to date Patrick Maitland (Ben Miles), the sextet's charismatic, cocky player, London's king of conquests - a guy who's just too cool to worry about being smart. Attractive Sally Harper (Kate Isitt) is a beauty therapist who is Susan's unashamedly vain best friend, who aggressively battles aging with heavy doses of moisturizer and men - including Patrick.
Meanwhile, Steve Taylor, while getting together with Susan, can't seem to shake loose from his vivacious and slightly vacuous ex-girlfriend Jane Christie (Gina Bellman), a woman supremely confident in her ability to seduce anyone of either sex, and who refuses to be dumped unless she's the one doing the dumping. Jeff Murdoch (Richard Coyle) is Steve's "porn buddy" who is, in equal parts, obsessed and bewildered by actual sex; charming in his way, but with an uncanny ability to say the wrong thing at the worst possible time. He works in the same office as Susan, with whom he had a disastrous and unsuccessful one-night fling.
Coupling has been honoured with the prestigious Silver Rose of Montreux, Best TV Comedy Award, and is recent winner at the 2003 British Comedy Awards.
With a new guy on the scene, a baby on the way, commitment in the air, and love on the horizon, the dynamics of the six friends are definitely changing.
At the end of last season Susan and Steve discovered they were pregnant (well, mostly Susan), confirmed bachelor Patrick and Sally finally admitted their true feelings for each other, and poor Jane was left on her own, once again.
(😬) But it's not all doom and gloom for Jane. As the new season opens, things are looking up. There's this guy called Oliver, who has his eye on her. Is it possible that lifetime loser in love Oliver might just get somewhere with lifetime loser in love Jane? Trouble is, his apartment is a little "un-edited" and his living room has lost the battle with magazine nudity...
Susan and Steve are now well and truly an item. So why is he dreaming about being executed by a fetus with an axe?
Meanwhile Sally and Patrick are settling into their new relationship. But since the dawn of time, men and women have been falling in love - and men have been trying to get home straight afterwards. Can fallen playboy Patrick ever find his way back from the enchanted glade of his one true love and get a decent night's sleep?
