Afterall it is business. Just like a movie that is not earning in boxoffice is removed, a show that is not doing good on TRP chart is removed.
I had put in another forum. Multiplex and satellite rights changed the face of Indian Cinema. If you look in the last 5-6 years movies with good content became box office hits also, but they got the chance because of multiplex and satellite rights. I mean TV became an alternate medium for cinema and producers took more risks.
Similarly online series is going to be that magic wand for TV. If something doesn't work in TV, move online. If monetizing happens there PH will also take some risks in giving content and hopefully finite shows.
Just like movie can be played " n" times in a channel, a show can be watched "n" times online. So the medium is huge. And there it is not some 25000 homes deciding what the rest should watch, but each indvidiual will be able to give the rating, just like box office numbers.
But we will have to wait. Till then sigh...
