The Silk Road, a road full of legends, has made many contributions to the progress of human civilization and created a group of Silk Road figures who overcame numerous difficulties and obstacles with courage and perseverance, and have been passed down through the ages. Their goals may not be the same, envoys for peace, soldiers for war, monks for truth, merchants for profit, but they all have to go through the test of long journeys to achieve their goals. It is because of their perseverance that they can leave behind stories that have been passed down through the ages, and that the Silk Road, which has declined, is still desirable and fascinating today.Trygdekontoret talkshow

The Naked Brothers Band
2007
star 6.5The Naked Brothers Band is an American musical comedy series created by Polly Draper. The show depicts the daily lives of Draper's sons, who lead a fictional world-renowned rock band from New York City. As a mockumentary, the storyline is a hyperbole of their real lives, and the fictional presence of a camera is often acknowledged. Lead vocals and instrumentation are provided by the siblings; they wrote the lyrics themselves. The show stars Nat Wolff and Alex Wolff, who encounter conflicts with each other that are later omitted. Nat's fictional female admirer and real life preschool friends—including the guitarist who had no prior acquaintance with the family—feature as the band members, with the siblings' genuine father and Draper's husband as their accordion-playing dad and Draper's niece as the group's babysitter. The series is a spin-off of Draper's 2005 film of the same name that was picked up by Nickelodeon, premiering in January 2007.
