🤣

omg! i had the same idea 'bout ratpal looking like goldfish(in a bowl) in that episode where prem kills his dreams of being heer's husband! only *looking over my shoulder and whispering* i thought that would irk the mnstrz and they'd bring a new case against me for abusing goldfish...

😆

One thing I was really peeved about was how Prem told Lallu that he only had two sons.. our original Prem would never say that! 😔 I don't know if I could take this butcharing of our beloved Prem's beautiful character.

well, i don't think we know enough 'bout the story to know that his character has been butchered. so don't lose hope just yet -- let's w&w? 😃

Prem thing: i don't understand this Prem much. the earlier one would have tried to justify Harman's action and not tell him off so rudely. or may be it is his way of getting harman back.

that's what i thought. at least, if they're still sticking with the story that i understood when i started watching? then that's what i think he's doing..

Heer thing: I also liked the fact that Heer was not hiding anything. she didn't fear that prem wouldn't be able to take harman leaving the house. it felt like she's finally ready to give up all the responsiblities back to prem.

👏 me too! but i think she's gonna share... and i think (i hope?) it's because he wants her to.. 😍

Juneja family: . i dont understand why all families in hindi shows have to hide things from one another? every show has this track. Why?

i have no clue 'bout every other show -- but i sooooo didn't get it here! why oh why are they hiding info 'bout harman from prem??? i was sooooo irritated by that i could've ... kicked everyone of 'em. well, except (god) preet...

Preet: you are right he is the most real character in the show. Prem and Heer belong to some different universe.

*saying gladly* all hail (god) preet! 😃

Prem's disappearance and reapperance: i think this will be another twist in the story later. right now they seemed to be more focussed on getting the family on track and geting their lost glory. May be that prem's disappearance may be used to create more drama once the whole family is together.

😲 that would be soooooooooooo weird! how can they ignore where prem'd been??! that'd be really making for a terrible story...

Very sure that very soon Harman will return and will end up with Ash (this way all the manns will be married to junejas).

😲 oooh, really? is a cool idea though... actually, it'd be really reallly cool!

It was an ok episode but i so want some Prem heer romance. As usual waiting and watching

me? i just want some coherence in the story back... really. strange no? *not that i'm saying no to prem-heer romance, 'course! 😆 but i'm just sooooo steeped in prem-heer-are-one now that the very thought of that being true is somehow... enough romance for me. omg. did i just write that?? now i know why i hate prem and his heer. i would've never thought it imaginable before i met these two... sigh!!*

(BT people should really take a peek into Smita's FF - Destiny. i love the way she gives importance to all the characters and how smoothly the story flows. )

yeah!! ain't she uber cool? i seriously think she should do take over the show's scriptwriting, don't you?? 😃

ha! what a odd-ball episode we got today! and to think that i went through major rescheduling to see it! mebbe i should just go back to not watching the monday and wednesday episodes like i used to earlier... 'cause this one was totally - i mean, totally! - funny. *not funny haha either, funny tchchaaaah!*

Since its your post... I am commenting.... 😃

* ag thing: during the pheye-lock, ag giggled! that was soooo ag and not heer!

what surprised me was (a) they didn't bother to reshoot and correct it, and (b) that hc just stood there continuing with the pheye-lock! this is the first time i thought that ag-hc were on different tracks on what to do in a scene. and of course, from that point onwards, everything just got funnier and funnier. *yeah, in that tchchaaah! way...*

I thought it was cute and brilliantly done... Now I know what they mean when they say we compliment each other in acting... They bring the best out in each other dont ya think so

* preet thing: this (god) of mine has absolutely no shame 'bout interrupting his pb and his hb, does he? totally shameless.

then again, he hasn't seen his pb in a long time so i guess he's grabbing all chances he can to be with him? 😃

Its great to see him back in action... the show is slowly regaining the lost flavour... and I think it will take time...

* little thing: the only nice scene in today's show was the whole family-squabble on who gets halwa first.

I thought the way prem handles harman was good too. I thought that was brilliantly done... sigh I go to watch part 3 again

😆 that was cute. what nonsense reasons every one was coming up with to justify why they would get halwa first! and ash was there too, joining in. and what totally rocked the scene was the way heer was sooooo innocent of what was going on at the table behind her back. and heer-gayatri-mom was a sweet moment. prem was... well, prem is a problem character just now, apparently recovering from a ''haadsa'' called ...death! 🤣

It was cute and sweet and no they werent nonsense reason but rather it was lovely...kind of reminded me of the brother - sister squabbles we have at home

* little thing: but i see that hc is still the dumping ground for all things sweet? why else did preet push some halwa onto ''prem's'' plate?? 🤣

btw, bad editing blooper. heer gave halwa to prem and preet after preet moved halwa to prem's plate? tchchaaah!

Didnt notice that bit... may be coz i had switched off my brains while watching the show - so nothing matters really

* little thing: 'kay, so i thought it was free-seating at the jzoo. so why did prem not sit next to gayatri-mom? and then, why did prem ask whether that was harman's chair?

Well, I guess, he suddenly realized

and why did it take so long for prem to ask 'bout harman? i mean, this is bharat of the ram-bharat-lakshman trio, isn't it? tchchaaah!

* little thing: so .. um .. no-one else expected a ratpal entry at breakfast today?

i mean, this is ravan? who actually owns the jzoo? and wants revenge from prem? so .. where is he?

He is gone to timbaktu and if he returns, I shall break my TV... I have had enough of negative characters in the show...Thank God he is not there... Good Riddance

* little thing: so who else had their heart stop when heer was fixing her hair, and moved out of the frame, and then prem came into the room and shut the door, 'cause they thought we were gonna get to see a soap-sud retake?? seriously. no-one else???

Naaah...

instead, we got a drippy prem scene.

* little thing: y'know? i already ranted in ''the other wtf - 14 feb''** that the worst thing was when creatives used prem-heer moments to distract us from a sad lack of a story line. i was wrong.

the worst thing is when they mess up even a prem-heer moment. 'cause that was a totally heavy-handed treatment of prem-heer's relationship to me!

i mean, prem telling heer that he knows what all she'd done for him while ''he was away''??!! what the...? this is prem-heer-are-one! why the heck is he talking so much about such stuff to her??! why??? first he says i love you. and now he says thank you?? exactly what happened to this damned guy??? did the fire cause some internal damage to his heer-antenna/heer-communication system??

See if he has just come out of the blast, the feeling of experiencing near - death and yet oming out alive is something and only people who have gone through it, will know what is like. People have their own way of dealing with trauma. Till Now, I think it's been sensitively handled. When the person you love the most, comes back in to your life, you dont question as to where the person has been all this while. Wont that be an insult to the relationship, a relationship which is based on love and trust.

Prem right now is trying to get his bearing back. I think as audience, we are being a way bit too impatient right now. Yes, its our right to know , but just for once,try being in the shoes of the family or then Prem, may be you will get a different reaction....

I was not wanting to do an analysis but i think I will now...

now heer - otoh - was much more in sync with who we know: she's upfront and forthright and ... well, just right.

*and seriously? they have prem say ''while he was away'' just one more time without someone leaping and asking, ''btw, exactly where were you away'', and i swear i'm gonna end up without a tv to watch the show 'cause i'd have done violence to the monitor.. *

* hc thing: i get seriously irritated when they get makeup on hc that is out of sync with the lighting they will use. they did it on the day of the second raasta roko (when heer was faking ml) and they did it again today. as if it wasn't a odd scene anyway, this had to be added on to the weirdness quotient... tchchaaah!

* prem's brother thing: wasn't it lovely how both of prem's brother do not want to lie to him? that was one of the best parts of the episode today.

first, in that men-huddle -- with preet sitting at his father's feet *all hail (god) preet!* -- preet instinctively wants to tell pb the truth. same with harman. i totally loved that..

Ditto

* big thing: 'kay. i seriously want to know. who else burst into loud laughter when that (idiot) kul-di husband said that on top of ''this haadsa'', prem wouldn't be able to take harman's treachery??

I thought it was an hadsa and I think it has been sensitively handled so far. Different people have different ways of dealing with trauma and lets not foirget, experiencing the feeling of being alive after a bomb explosion - all those who survived through it all know.

I didnt think there was anything wrong in that statement. Yes, it was an hadsa for him. Probably, something the family realizes. Probably the creatives want to show them the experience, the feeling, the emotion of a person, who witnessed that life could have come to an end...

no, i wasn't laughing at the thought of melissa's reaction to the idea of getting harman back into the show. i was laughing at the really odd sensation of being made to feel that ''death'' is being treated like some disease! 🤣don't you think? like some germ that you catch. and then there's some medicine you take. and you get cured. and then you're all right and ready to go back to school again.

the guy had (apparently) died!!! does this script-team know what the word ''dead'' means?? it's like .. the irrevocable disease! the final full-stop. that in every other world means never coming back. never being there ever after. never. while in this house, it's like prem had ... gone on a business trip. and gee, it got over. so he's back.

I think the family does not want to say anything to Prem right now, because as Payal said all that matters to them right now is that their son is back home. Everything else is secondary.

so i was totally on the floor laughing my stomach out at that solemn, stooooopid face of kuldi's husband making that stooooopid solemn statement. it was not a haadsa, it was death, potato-brain. death! something no one ever ever recovers back from! and if they do get a second chance, the last thing you ought to do is lie to them! what a solemnly stoooopid moment that was. well... thank goodness for the solemnity to laughat -- else i'd have just been gritting my teeth at the pain of the stooopidity.

seriously though? i had thought they're use of the delhi bomb blast as one of the cool ways to pay homage to the disaster of a terror attack. i had saluted them when they did it. this ... solemn stooopidity is almost an insult to the tremendous impact of the 10/02/08 episode.
is not good. is not good at all. *frowning sadly*

No, I think solemn stupidity is an insult to any of the blasts that has been witnesses so far. Not just an episode. If only they knew what it is like to see an explosion infront of your eyes, I am not writing any more on this because images on 26/11 and 9/11 are coming in front of me right now. If only the creatives used their brains a bit, and thought from that angle, - the feeling of being alive, the feeling of witnessing death.

* little thing: oooh, father-father confrontation. man, is maya's father an unbearable sleaze! or did they do that just to have lalit juneja look like a towering pillar of honour next to him?

No Comments..

* little thing: no one else got the idea that harman is not longer ''with'' maya and her sleaze-dad? no?

No Comments..


* prem thing: hmm.. prem bhashans are back. in full force. no-one else thought that he's just pushing harman's buttons to get him to confess what he (harman) had actually bargained for when he (harman) left?

More Later..

*hey, what can i say? i still don't think harman's a rat. i think he's just trying to match his pb in doing good things for the family on the sly. of course, i've been naive about all kinds of villany in the show before. so i'm probably fantabulously wrong. 😆*

i liked the look on heer's face as prem got particularly pushy -- she looked shocked at what he was saying. i wanted to bop everyone else on the top of their heads. including prem when he stalked over to lalit juneja to tell him that he and preet would bring back glory to the juneja house. *sigh, maybe i'm asking this too often -- but has prem a clue of what he is promising to do?*

except (god) preet. i thought preet's expression was the only tolerable, non-smarmy one. it was the right amount of sad in his face: sad for his pb, sad for his family, sad for his harman bhai. preet was dignified in his quiet and sad stance... *all hail, (god) preet!*

* photography thing: hmm... circling cameras are back. made me feel a little giddy.

* little thing: er... seriously? no one expected ratpal to show up today? really? seriously? i was the only one?

highlight of the episode: the sight of kul-di's husband's head ringing after i bopped him on the head after that ''haadsa'' statement. 'kay. that didn't really happen anywhere but in my head. but you should've seen it -- it was the best scene! 🤣

**: the other wtf - 14 feb, http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1128481

man, i've got to get some sleep... g'night all. hope we have a good show tomorrow. have fun...

it just had few scenes put together and the way prem is treating heer, it just makes me wonder did ThePrem really died in that blast? I mean not physically but his Premness or part of his premness got burned at the site of blast?

soaps, it isn't *well, not yet, i think* as bad as that on the prem-heer front! 😲 no really! heer is still heer. in multiple beautiful ways. she's giving prem time.*something we seem to be more miserly with, no? 😊* she's giving him time - to adjust from his hip-hop to his current life. like she did once before. and like that time, she's probably giving him time without even asking questions ! she is just sooo heer. and since prem-heer-are-one -- i forgive the time they're taking to tell us prem's side of the story 'cause heer is such a terrific ...heer!

Prem is totally unfair to heer and heer is not bothered either!

😲 what d'you mean -- he's unfair to her? and yeah, heer wouldn't be bothered no? she's totally understood and accepted what prem-heer-are-one means? one of the concepts of this show that - when i think 'bout it - has been rather terrifically developed, entrenched and never let go of! they got me on this show -- even in it's current discordant state, i will w&w just as long as i'm convinced that that concept is being held true... *sigh* i am such a sucker, no? 😊

The way he was sitting on that rocking chair flipping through the magazine just made me think that creatives have lost it completely...

for some reason, more than one of you disliked that? i didn't seem to notice much. maybe i was slapping my forehead so much by then that i wasn't noticing anything much by then? 😆

Prem's dialogues are becoming weaker even, i don't know may be the creatives don't want this show to go on and longer 😭😭😭

w&w, darling. w&w?

Oh and Mr. prem Juneja what was so special in that chair that reminded you of Harman? ....Did it have Harman's name written over it? 😕

🤣 soaps! if i tell you s'thing, promise you won't feel offended? that was just sooooo vibhs!!! 🤣

creatives are leaving too many questions unanswered and are moving ahead that too with no flow at all 😭 sighs i will go mad 😭


soaps!!! time-out! no! no going mad(e) for you! you're gonna remain sane and watch this show with me. well, you'll learn to w&w this show with me?? what say? 😃

LOL and as for that HC/AG scene in the begining and Ag's laughing...hahaha not only that she was laughing but HC was moving his head side ways to tell her not to laugh 🤣🤣🤣 someone just posted abt it in another thread...its hilarious

so estee.....you did major rescheduling to watch monday's epi...i wonder why??😉😉.

i dunno either... why are you looking at me like that???! 😳

i guess he decided to have some mercy on us...otherwise what a dealy combination it would have been.......i sooooo loveee himmm,mmmm

😆 yes, vandana, i know... you do. actually, everyone knows? 😆

yes......this scene was too good to be true....premeer romancing for the first time in the kitchen.....hmm..someone had to come.......

hey! not first time! remember that phlashback of prem burning heer's breakfast! *sigh* but yes, that time too someone had to come... *sigh* they really need to find another place of their own... 😆

okie...priestess of the religion of preet...agreed......😆😆

*patting vandana on the head* good girl! 😆

ravan...is in lanka...romancing with kodiyon pal.....

🤣

oho...so sad estee....all rescheduling went down the drain......

vandana, you .... meanie!! 🤣

hey misty!! i've got like two minutes to get down for b'fast. but it's your post! 😃

I thought it was cute and brilliantly done... Now I know what they mean when they say we compliment each other in acting... They bring the best out in each other dont ya think so

no question they are superb together. but .. well, mebbe i was waiting for more... as vandana kept trying to tell me, in a not so subtle way!! 😆

I thought the way prem handles harman was good too. I thought that was brilliantly done... sigh I go to watch part 3 again

i thought it was harsh and ... good. for all the moments that harman did those terrible no-faith-in-pb moments, this was quite an answer. and what was brilliant was that harman accused prem based on feelings and little fact, while prem? prem fires him on fact. harman really doesn't have a leg to stand on -- apparently. me? i'm hoping there is something that the family and prem don't know 'bout why harman decided to do that abrupt turn-about on his marriage to meher... *ya, ya, go 'head, say it: estee you still hopelessly-hopeful ... nut!*

It was cute and sweet and no they werent nonsense reason but rather it was lovely...kind of reminded me of the brother - sister squabbles we have at home

*sulking* darnit. mebbe that's why it sounded silly... me don't have brother-sister squabbles. *thinking* would cousin-squabbles be of the same sort? mine haven't been that ... well... out-there.

He is gone to timbaktu and if he returns, I shall break my TV... I have had enough of negative characters in the show...Thank God he is not there... Good Riddance

😆 i wish he'd just stay there. though i think not?

See if he has just come out of the blast, the feeling of experiencing near - death and yet oming out alive is something and only people who have gone through it, will know what is like. People have their own way of dealing with trauma. Till Now, I think it's been sensitively handled. When the person you love the most, comes back in to your life, you dont question as to where the person has been all this while. Wont that be an insult to the relationship, a relationship which is based on love and trust.

but i wasn't talking 'bout heer questioning prem. heer hasn't questioned prem and that i understand! 'cause that's heer. and she's perfect.

me? i was troubled with prem saying those things to heer! now that? that didn't make sense to me.. why? why, why, why did he say all that thank you pooop? this is heer, damnit! why did he say it? 😕

Prem right now is trying to get his bearing back. I think as audience, we are being a way bit too impatient right now. Yes, its our right to know , but just for once,try being in the shoes of the family or then Prem, may be you will get a different reaction....

i don't mind waiting till the end of the world as long as i understand the prem and heer i see. everyone can be as silly as they want. *er, other than preet.* 😆

I didnt think there was anything wrong in that statement. Yes, it was an hadsa for him. Probably, something the family realizes. Probably the creatives want to show them the experience, the feeling, the emotion of a person, who witnessed that life could have come to an end...

me? i thought he was ... an idiot! 😆

and i totally agree with you on the solemn stooopidity being an insult to the blasts...
