Hey

I was wondering.. why in India do the shows have 2 breaks when its a 30 minute slot...

It doesnt make sense.. here in the UK you get one break. And in that break you can make Tea 😆 (no lie!)

Why isnt it one longish break only.. why 2? 😕

Sorry been thinking randomly again 😆

lol i know its for the money.. but the 2nd break can be merged into the 1st break

theres plenty of adverts in india!

Ponds/dish tv/ volini/colgate/drinking water/hero honda/Horlicks/Complan/fair and lovely/ lifebay/ sansui awards/ and then all the drama adverts etc etc etc

see they wont overlap 😆

lol.. omg u serious! 😲

its soo odd.. 2 breaks, imagine an hour long show! 😳 in the uk we have 3 breaks.. say the show started at 4.. so the 1st break at 4.15.. then 4.30 then 4.45

you cant get a feel for the prog. that way if theres too many breaks.. u get into the drama and then break 😕

U are lucky here it's a break every 10 mins...more ads means more revenue...plus it means they don't have to make long soap episode...I means less crap they have to think up and make... 😆
