First off I am going to give a huge thumbs up to Vedika and her post that is expressing so much truth as to the current state of things with this show👏. Everything mentioned in it, the initial post and the follow up commentary in absolutely on point and truthfully this post could have been a response to it. However in the name of forum activity, I am making a seperate thread just to ramble a little. I am pretty sure this is my second for the week, which I feel is indicitive of the plight of so many fans and the wear and tear on the loyal viewer that has us eventually tuning out.
The first time I missed the show was Friday December 1. I was catching an early morning flight the next day and stayed in the office to finish up some work. It was a practical decision spurred by the fact that chances were that I would catch the repeat at crazy o'clock in the morning as I knew I would probably still be up packing. I was and I did, so alls well that ends well I guess.

Last night though after a week of forcing myself to even watch the show, I prepared to do the same. I even watched that very strange new show (IMO so no offence😉) about the village boy and that modern girl in anticipation of my ZKM.

Well I didnt even see an opening scene: whether it be the fact that I was suffering from sheer exhaustion, or just that my brain had finally rejected the affront to it in the nonsense we are suffering through I fell asleep. For exactly 30 minutes. When I opened my eyes that Piya...show had just started. And then I stayed up until my usual bedtime...weird right?

Now I know that we are all spoiled rotten with our daily LU (love you shamz😉) which especially for me allows the choice to view or not later. The fact is that I have never been detered from watching the show. I guess my psyche just couldnt cope last night, but the sad thing is that when I woke it didnt even matter much that I had missed it at all.

As an international viewer I dont count for trps, but its sadly ironic that in what should be a pivitol point in the show...their shaadi at last, I am the least bit concerned. And this is coming from someone who was in a quandry over how she would cope without ZKM on vacation a few months ago😕

My rambling is basically saying I get it, I finally am understanding the mindset that had so many ( well those who havent disappeared for their studies that is) of the original forum posters going awol. It has become so easy to become disenchanted with what the show has become. Obviously I am a slow learner as until recently I have lived with the hopes that it will get better. Now I have no clue how ST et al are going to get themselves out of the hole they have dug...they have ruined this show imo...

When you are more vested in the ff on the forum because you get glimpses of what the show could have been, its pretty sad. But that's it: that where i am now...at the point where missing the show doesnt feel as big of a deal as it once did...
I dont know whether to be sad or just pissed off over it..

Ok ther goes my 3:00 am sound off/contribution. I guess i feel better getting that off my chest😆. Respond or ignore, but just turn the post pink in the sake of the forum😊

Kelly I'm so with you.
Australia is 4 hours ahead of India, and there are so many nights when I've stayed up till midnight only to read the LU and know what's happened in the show. Or I've waited till 1 am to watch the episode online.

And I don't feel that way about the show any more. I hate criticising shows online so I'll just leave it at that.

I understand completely about not ranting online and I am definitely attributing it to my lack of forum activity aside from my ff. I have completely fallen into the category of "if you have nothing good to say, say nothing at all."

I have such a disconnect now to the show and in a limited extent to the forum. I am still on it, but know that my participation is waning😕. And i adore KV and SJ they are incredible, but truthfully the show is doing my head in.

I'm certain at the very least I am coming across as a raving lunatic on shamz lu with all my rants and red faces this week😆

Yes, @bold is exactly what I feel too.

Also I didn't mean that you shouldn't rant. I think we need to make a distinction between a troll who is ever ready to criticise everything and regular fans who can point out flaws and provide constructive criticism.

And yes I'm with you on the disconnect. I try and respond to posts on the forum, but for friends rather than because I'm totally into the show.

Absolutely agreed on all points...visit the forum for written update and wonderful ffs nowadays...the cvs have ruined the show like anything...even the prospect of marriage doesn't excite me any more...it was going on for quite a few days and I am happy that others are also feeling the same way...off screen photos will not help in getting the lost trps and I wish the cvs and the production house realise it soon.

Kelly good morning the episode was not that bad the cvs want to show Shaurya's past they want to highlight his poor beginnings and how he ended up in KM with all that wealth but instead of leaving it with the original story of his dad abandoning his mom for the wealthy Kurana then he is a drunkard abuser who give a crap for his young son and sick first wife they did crap by introducing that horrible greedy nani and why do they have to link him with Mehek's parents death make him an underage driver another angle could have been used to link him to the Sharmas
Bringing in greedy low-class nani and now masi say what about Shaurya's past after his mother died they should have taken him in but they left him so a kind loving Kurana ma took him in and brought him up as her precious son grooming and encouraging him to become the successful driven businessman he is as present responsible enough to work hard and pay off the debts and get his K ma's wealth back to her from her vultures relatives
They could have left the story like this why to introduce that low life nani and masi I am watching because I want to see how the cvs are going to fix this crap and plus this is the only show on ZEE i can tolerate

I guess in the cvs mind they think that type of crap will appeal to the trp audience in India no offense to anyone but are they so wrong
