whenever i watch alias..i feel very happy but whenevr i turn my own indian channels..i feel very sad and sorry too.becoz there is no variety of shows going around. moreover hollywood produces action shows in which girls play the main part..can u bet it????

count these...

alias

acapulco HEAT

charlie's angles

She-Spies

VIP

Xena

Sheena

mutants

and many more...

the biggest thing is that these shows r super-duper hit shows...

and if we look our indian tv..what do we have to count

C.A.T.S.(which was copied from the american series)

Special Squad

Kohinoor that's it...

why can't people change their minds and look a different aspect of a new generation.of course our indian girls can rock too😉

Ok American TV and Indian Dramas are in a league of their own. Its two very different themes of entertainment as the storylines will reflect the norms of the society. India the saas-bahu shows sell as ppl can relate to that. In America, they are more innovative with their tv shows, each one has to have its own USP to stand out from the rest as there is a lot of competition from other networks. In India, its mainly just Balaji ruling all the channels. Although, American shows have their categoric shows too with the formulatic storylines esp. in teen drama genre.

u r right..absolutely...but the biggest drawback is acceptance even if indian tv produces a show like hollywood just bollywood produced KRRISH.they r not going to accept it becoz they don't find woman suitable being brave and doing crazy stuff around

I so agree with you. Forensic/secret agencies/members has been my favourite topic for shows and will be, i know, its so interesting.

I remember when that show Akar Bakar or something used to come on Star Plus and Charmed used to come on Living TV. THe time slot was 4:00 pm Charmed and 5:00 pm Akar Bakar. After watching CHarmed I used to tune into Star Plus and when I watched Akar...I was like 🤢 . The quality and story was so diferent when the subject was same: Supernatural.

Same with other shows, like Special Squad why can't a girl be the main protagonist?

I agree with pardesi-mem, Indian TV is being ruled by Balaji (which I am totally against) and so same things are shown everywhere. BUT whatever it is if producers start producing more different genre shows it might click with the audience like CID.

Whatever it is I LOVE English shows more than Indian ones that's why I am only following DMG and that too when i have nothing else to watch.
