I don't really think there's anything much to review in today's episode. The "logic" towards the end was so laughably bad that I really cringed. Before I continue I must address these issues -
- The father knows that the guy is a known criminal and in order to blackmail him he not only approaches him in
Vikas' place in the presence of his crony, but brings the evidences with him and presents them before Vikas. Short of shooting himself in the head, there's no better way to commit suicide. 🤢
- The mother knows that Vikas has killed her husband and kills Damodar in revenge, yet allows Vikas to continue the marriage. Reason? "
Beti ki baat pe majboor thi". I won't even comment on this one, I felt like throwing a glass at the TV when she said that. 😡😡
All I'll say is that either the writer is a 9 year old kid, or is being intentionally lazy and putting barely any effort to up the quality. Poor direction, awful screenplay and pacing, lazy plotline. I was almost asleep towards the end, very disappointed. Why exactly are they hiring poor writers like this is beyond my comprehension, do they want CID to live up to its quality or not? There are infinitesimally better writers out there, many on our forum itself. Remove the current official ones, hire the deserving ones, pronto. NOW.
Our team did a great job as always and I only have a complaint with Sachin's usual OTT anger displays, Kajal's poor wardrobe and Vivek, Tasha and Freddie being reduced to total extras again. But what's the use of it, our Trio give it their 100% in every episode there, yet by the standards of the story today I don't think the writers even put in 20% proper work. I loved seeing Abhi sir on the bike and interrogating Vikas, and Daya sir slapping the guy 😃, Forensic scene was decent too, how much more memorable it would've been if the episode was good.
Art direction was OK (very soapish though in the engagement scene), editing was sloppy and poorly paced. The supporting actors weren't upto the mark either. 👎🏼
Disappointing episode. Hoping for a better one tomorrow, but I'm not sure how much I'll manage to get my hopes up after today's drivel.
