Same here Jzee...Out of habit, I have been looking for the chaskameter everytime I come on the forum, to give its rating and find this void instead... I was sooo getting bugged with the whole missing rating stars... now, I fingers on auto-motion want to click on them, and they give me a thenga... ahhh... weird things can make me feel so sad now.. I have lost it I think...

^OUCH 😳 They could have left it for another week at least so we could rate this weeks episodes.

I'm like Gulaal and become an ostrich :( The last few days I was getting really down about the show ending then I was reading your views too which made me hide even more 🤣 Can't face reality like Galool some times.

Ohhh this is hard :(

Minks - that was exactly my reaction... I refreshed the page and when they stars didn't show once, and then twice, I thought my page wasn't loading... and then it hit me... :| Reemz makes a fair point - we deserved one more week to rate the BEST finale in the history of Indian TV as long as I've watched it anyway... One day down and CM gone is like below the belt - IF 😡

Reemz - Given how well rounded and satisfactorily this story has been closed, I still found myself thinking - all day long - of at least a month's worth of episodes that could have come our way in adding up the yet missed little things... I'd have liked Gullu's diary to come in, and Gullu to sit in a sea of Kesar's letters... I'd have delighted in getting 'genuine and sound' two weeks in the GK home alone phase... nothing was rushed... but I would take more than what we got anyday! More situations, more scenes... I wouldn't even mind a Duggu Gulaal encounter when he was found out to be the murderer - in Kesar's presence this time... I would have liked random scenes like GK doing groceries together one time... or just taking a long walk in the aam baag - say the day at the mandir when Kulli had to meet, post DV break? I dunno... I would just loved loved loved more and more GK conversations. The intense/intimate scenes are thumbs up always - but their dialogs, even the silent eye locks are so charged and right there at the top... I've been wishing all day this didn't have to wrap up so soon. It was enough time to not be 'hurried and scurried' out of theme or standard, and I'll be grateful for that - but if I say mein itne mein hi khush hu - it would be as half hearted and resigned as Kesar from his scene...

Jzee, ye dil maange so much more of Kes-Gul... I know it sounds cliche and so phan-girl kinds... but this show made me want to behave in a typical fangirl type... wanting more lovey-dovey scenes... in their typical intense style... hai... I could so visualise the two leading a simple yet complete life together... ek garba dikha ke to accept that they lived happily ever after is sooo not enough.

I wanted to see them doing so many things, especially the closure of Durgesh chapter together... going on to Gulaal being the mukihya now of the Panchayat maybe... even their baby, just like in Arti's FF... lol, a girl can dream !!!

^^ I think if I had my way I could fit in wishful scenes nearly in every nook and corner of the show! And how amazing can a show be - that its complete in every sense, doesn't make you feel gaps or loopholes - yet there are all those things you want to see being done!

I knew no matter how content I may be with the ending, we all know that more could have been shown if time permitted so unfortunately we will always go back to the 'what ifs'. I'm sure the writers had intended to bring back Durgesh at some point but alas it was a huge angle to fit in alongside Dushyant's angle and of course GK themselves.

It really doesn't help that GK scenes flowed so naturally that the viewer automatically wants to hear their conversations non-stop because these two actually talked, discussed and shared. There is so much more we could have seen but...!

I'm going to try and not let it nag me but I hate being left with the 'what ifs' :(

You know everyday at work when it came to episode time, I would rush off to the loo with my phone to check on the updates. Now I have nothing to look forward to :( Nothing to be excited for when I get home and switch on the TV. Nothing to analyse till I waste all my brain cells lol!

Lovely post JZee ,as usual ...
here I dont want the "as usual" to trivialise your post in any way..this is a different "as usual" , acknowledging your razor sharp analysis of each episode which makes me watch the episode all over again through your words...

When I watch the episode,I
experience it ...
when I read your post ,I
understand it !

Its almost as if you can read the character's mind , the director"s mind , the writer's mind , all at once ...AND link it to all that has ever happened before in the show , down to the pieces of music !.(by the way, I must go back and watch to hear what piece of music it was that played royally at both the confessions😊 ).

Well, the confession was brilliant , Mota bha -Gullu scene was brilliant , Neil -Mansi - Ali - director-writer ..all- were brilliant , but guess who's the "brilliantest" of them all - YOU , for deciphering everything to such precision !👏

Indeed it has been a privilege reading your posts , privilege being in this forum with so many talented members , each in their unique and complimentary way...and for someone like me , who can only provide good readership /viewership , it has been a paradise to be in !

thanks

and Cheers!

VJ

Reemz - word! I'd been pre-poning my dinner time by an hour or so for a fortnight now - to watch the episode live (well, exclude the final week when i had all the time in the world to Galool about and no laptop at hand - but I know what're you're talking about exactly! I must have spent at least a month's worth of summer evening class watching the episodes live, when I'd initially got hooked to the show... and well... things never changed! And everyday - writing the post was something I'd look forward to, but also something that would be like - nooo! I just wanna sit and think about it for now, not get into typing my next chapter of the mini Novel - inside the head of Galool 😆 - but I'd write it, because I'd also want just as badly to get around to discussing all the things to gush or rant about... and it was just a loop! I think the first site I've logged into for at 2/3rd of the days of my around 3 months of activity on the forum has been Gulaal forum... even before my mails, and really for somebody as mail-o-holic as me (I go mad checking mails on my work account like every 15 minutes or so!) its something to say... the lack of 'what to do' even though I don't exactly have the most free week at school just now - its like being Kesar... from that phone call episode?! Not knowing how not to do what has become so much routine! You know what you said about his symptoms being like an addict trying to withdraw... it feels like that. I can only imagine what it must be like for the actors themselves, especially Neil and Mansi who've had max shoot time in general I suppose...

I am content and restless at once. Content about watching a show so good through and through (ignore kinks which are easily neglected in comparison to the rest) and restless about the change in routine so bad!

It reminds me of lines from the Ancient Mariner -
water water everywhere... not a drop to drink...

we're stuck in this age of TV with -
shows shows everywhere, not a show to watch! 😒

I know I'm random... I'm having my passing miss Gulaal symptoms get to my head moments ...

VJ - You continue to be so kind, I have no new ways to say thank you. But I am (as always) touched. The as always just like yours is not to trivialize of course 😳
