Abstract

With the development of spiritual civilization, the content of over-entertainment in variety shows is increasingly inconsistent with the real needs of the audience. The content of the program re-advocates to help the audience find "hope" that they really want in the deep heart, and to find the long-term and true "beauty" and "happiness". When entertainment programs lead to the “carnival” of the whole society, the emergence of cultural variety shows is helping to change the pan-entertainment market. This paper will choose the prominent representative of literature and art variety show The Readers, combining communication studies, media ecology, Confucian and Taoism thoughts, Bloch’s utopia philosophy, and Neil Botman’s point of view in Amusing Ourselves to Death, and comparing with the content production of purely entertaining programs, to analyze the spiritual salvation reflected in The Readers, and further sublimate the good reaction of the program.
