I think the main problem with serials is they start with a story which has a beginning...but it never has a ending. So we rarely get a decent logical finish. Like LTL could have ended MR's track nicely. But for some reason they decided to drag their feet and rush the end in a week's time. They could have easily satisfied all of us and still given Dutta's character a similar exit.

Our serials shud have a definite period of airing lyk shows in US.Atleast they don't have to compromise on their content like ours do.If the show works the ch can start another season.Shows lyk friends,2 and a half men,scrubs......etc worked even in INDIA cos they never copromised on their content.They cud have finished the show with Dand N living happily ever after.My mum tells me wen nukkad,buniyaad.....etc used to air they had only 52 epis per serial but they aired on dd which is a national ch .Unfortunately these private channels are more interested in their money making mechanism rather than providing quality to their viewers

It was just a month back that I was searching for Kashish's videos on net! I remember each and every episode of tht show vividly!

tintin: Usually, I too know the ending when I write my story but the last OS, I wrote, I couldnt see the ending till Part 4, and then suddenly, the end just clicked and then my brains didnt let me change my end. No matter how much my readers pleaded me to change the end, I couldtn because I couldnt see any thing else but that. So,It was a different case with me....and on "playing with the gallery", I dont write long FFs and hence, I might not be able to play the gallery but the short stories/OSs that I write, I know what I want to write hence, there is never any room for playing with my characters....However, I would love to experiement with #4 too.

See when Kasamh Se started it was a story about three sisters, and then it turned into a jealousy act between two sisters and then two soutans when Meera, Jai Walia's 2nd wife was introduced....the whole story line got jeopardised....what is the point in that....

They could have stuck with three sisters, their ups and downs and ended the serial on a nice note...

In LTL, they have not explored on Madhu and Dutta's relationship, Baji with Roops or Madhu...the sisters and Madhu...I am sure if such things would have been shown as actors the cast would have got many things to do instead of standing like statues most of the time...we also would have got one interesting story....

They say Mahabharat is the longest epic on this earth, even in Mahabharat there are so many other stories and sub plots where the Pandavas or Kauravas are not present...inspite of that those stories are equally interesting and true to life too... but then we do not what a Mahabharat for it is one and only.....all we want is a good wholesome story with clean entertainment....
