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(🎹)对象的系列情景喜剧，创(chuàng )意和编剧均由Steven Moffat一人担当。三男三女的主要人物构成很容易使人联想到当(🎿)时正走红（其实(shí )已(yǐ )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(kàn )来，《Coupling》在情节(jiē )设定、人(🍑)物表(🛎)演、喜剧元素的设计和表现等(👪)诸多方面所达到(dào )的水平，要比《Friends》高几个档次。相比(bǐ )之下，《Friends》只能(néng )说是一部“业余”水平的好作品而已。当然总体来说，英(📤)剧(jù )(🚻)的水准本身就高于美剧，这和英剧注(zhù )意保持创意、编(biān )剧一体化是分不开的，美剧的创意一般也就为最初几集编(biān )剧，以后主要的编(biān )(🎞)剧工作都是由其(qí )它编剧根据最初的角色设定(dìng )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甚至前后矛盾(dùn )，故事往往缺乏(fá )深度，人物性格平面化，缺少发展。这都(dōu )是题外话了。
《Coupling》的主要人物包括优柔寡断、性格不成熟的帅哥Steve，Steve的(de )莫逆之交、举止语言古怪、总也找(😍)不到女友的Jeff，头脑简单、外表性感的“donkey” Patrick三位对Porn、特别是lesbian porn非常(cháng )热中的男士，以(💃)及Steve的(de )前(🗺)女友、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(hái )有Patrick）过的Susan，Susan的(🙈)莫逆(nì )、对衰(👘)老和肥胖极度敏感的美容师Sally三位女士。在第一集中，Steve决定“再次(cì )”和女(🌮)友Jane分手，结果却被Jane三言两语引诱(🚊)到洗手间亲热(🈁)；Patrick想把和Susan的关系再进一步，却(què )被告知根本不存在什么“关系”； Susan在洗(🛹)手间碰到匆忙出(⬇)来买Durex的Steve，向他表(👓)示好(🐇)感，两人订下(xià )约会以后Steve钻进隔间继续……。本剧的主线包括Steve和 Susan之间逐(zhú )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展(zhǎn )出来的一段关系，Patrick和Sally之间若有若无到若即若(ruò )离再到情深难舍的感情发展，还有Jane在事业和异性关系中的各种奇事，等等。
本剧在情节设计中所达到的精致和完美程度让人叹为观止，而六位当时并不算大明星的青年(nián )演(yǎn )员的(📢)所展现精湛(😞)演技(📊)更是具有顶尖演员的水平，无怪(🌥)乎播出之后立刻走红大洋两岸，在IMDB、AMAZON和BBC网站可以领略到其受(🍞)欢迎的程度。2002年底，第3季播毕(🎠)，故事情节基本告一段(duàn )落(🥍)。美(🦒)国NBC看到这部“英国版《Friends》”在英美两地(dì )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(bān )人，于是2003年大张旗鼓地决定翻拍美版《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(tái )词照搬(bān )的方法(🛡)，虽然个人没看过(guò )，不过也可以想象到有多恶心，结果只播(bō )出(💡)一集Pilot就因为骂声太(tài )大而整个计划搁浅（这点上美(měi )国佬是值得学习的，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(kàn )到这个计划的尸体，还(hái )有一些彻底走了味儿的(💞)剧(🎥)照。
2003年底，本剧获得英(🧛)国喜剧奖（BCA）最佳电视喜剧奖(jiǎng )(❤)。BBC已经在2004年正式开拍并播出第4季，不过Jeff这个人物将不再出现，而代之以(🐪)新角色——经营Sci-Fi书店的(🌼)Oliver，由Richard Mylan扮演。从已经播出的几集来看，应该说在更换主要角色之一的背(🍞)景(jǐng )下，基本保持了前3季的水准，但是同(🤱)时也流露出对前3季中成功情节(🎡)进行拷(kǎo )贝的迹象，希望这仅仅是偶然(rán )。
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?
