Post Chhanchhan i ve lost hopes with Sony.. Having said that I have to say I'm not a regular viewer of any of these but only have a superficial idea of things.. Frankly there are certain shows on both channels which have long outlived their charm..
SP is definitely going to have a tough time holding on to the numero uno spot.. Both Colors and Zee are inching on.. Especially the weekend of 28, 29 and the new week of 30th.. Wonder what SP has planned for then..
@red ... true that ... these days if I see SP, all the shows are so similar, it's sometimes difficult to know which show one is watching! They just have a huge reach which helps them stay on top ... and also great production values ... all their shows look very polished in terms of presentation. I like their Life OK shows better ... EBI and GD are on my watch list. At one time I watched only SP, now I barely follow one, Veera, that too, off and on.
Sony tries new things, I have to give them that ... but their reach is limited, their target audience is urban and they don't seem to give their shows much attention after the launch.
Colors does experiment, but more in the weekend slot ... their 24, CNWK and BB are all mentioned as trendsetters on TV for this year in today's TOI. Their Balika Vadhu was also a trendsetter when it started, and Mukti Bandhan was another good show. Hope Rangrasiya is added to that list next year.
