美剧剧中伯格

探秘成功美剧的幕后“大佬”

美剧究竟好看在哪里？除了画面制作精良、演员演技精湛，编剧当然也功不可没。那让我们一起来看看美剧的幕后英雄吧。...

美剧之所以广受欢迎，除了画面制作精良、演员阵容强大，专业性超强也是美剧吸引人的关键。

而在美剧的缜密剧情背后，强大的“剧本顾问”（Fact-Checker）功不可没。他们不仅要确保剧情在技术层面真实可信没有漏洞，还要保证剧中用到的行话和术语全都正确，才不会被观众贻笑大方。

生活大爆炸

作为《生活大爆炸》的剧本顾问，44 岁的大卫·索兹伯格（David Saltzberg）可是实至名归的知名学霸：普林斯顿大学物理学学士、芝加哥大学物理学博士以及欧洲核子研究中心博士后，目前供职于加州大学物理系。

Every week, Saltzberg arrives at the shooting scenes to make sure the contents showing in camera are correct. All the formulae listed on the whiteboard are drawn by Saltzberg.

These formulae are admired by physicists for their scrupulous accuracy. Furthermore, sometimes we can find the lastest news of scientific communities on the whiteboard too.

每周的现场录制，索兹伯格都会到场，以确保镜头中白板内容准确无误。剧中那些白板上的公式，可都出自索兹伯格之手哦！这些公式推导的严谨、精确，让很多物理学家们都深为钦佩，甚至偶尔还能从上面看到一些科学界的最新动向。

Saltzberg gets backup from Mayim Bialik, who starred as Sheldon's girlfriend.

Mayim helps Saltzberg fine-tune the scientific details. Her character - Dr. Amy is a neuroscientist while Mayim happens to have a PhD in neuroscience in reality.

剧中扮演谢耳朵女朋友艾米的马伊姆·拜力克（Mayim Bialik）有时候也会充当索兹伯格的援军，帮忙调整剧中科学方面的细节。艾米不仅在剧中是一个神经科学家，现实生活中的她也是一位神经科学博士。

此外，索兹伯格还特别建立了一个名为“博客大爆炸”（The Big Blog Theory）的博客，专门为广大粉丝解答《生活大爆炸》中的科学问题。

法律与秩序

在侦探剧领域，最资深的剧本顾问非吉姆·纽西弗罗(Jim Nuciforo)莫属。

During his twenty-three years' working experiences in law enforcement, Jim Nuciforo started his career as a cop in New York Police Department and ended it as a Detective I. And he had once worked for former NYPD commissioner - Bill Bratton.

从最初的纽约市交通部门巡警，到最后以一级警探身份退休，吉姆·纽西弗罗在执法机构工作了23年。期间，一度为前纽约警察局局长比尔·布拉顿（Bill Bratton）工作过。

When the writers are writing the scripts, they’ll call him and ask for advice. The questions could be jargon, procedure and any other things that related to NYPD. Once they start shooting, whenever they need a technical adviser on the shooting scenes, he’ll be there and help the actors work through it.

每当编剧们写剧本遇到问题，就会打电话给吉姆寻求建议。其中问题大多都与行话、剧情流程以及和纽约警察局等专业信息有关。当开始拍摄后，只要剧组需要，吉姆就会以技术顾问的身份出现在现场，给演员们提供各种指导。

绝命毒师

In Breaking Bad, most of the badass parts are blamed on Walter White, who plays a role from a chemistry teacher to a meth cooker. But Gordon Smith and Jenn Carroll do make great contributions to the chemistry parts, who make sure every molecular formula that comes out of the character’s mouth is perfect.

在《绝命毒师》里，大多数的坏事都是沃特·怀特（Walter White）干的，这个角色从起初的化学老师变成了一个制毒者。但说起剧里有关化学的内容，就要感谢戈登·斯密斯（Gordon Smith）和詹·卡罗尔（Jenn Carroll）两位研究者的辛勤付出，因为他们决定着演员口中说出的每个配方是否完美。
