to be honest I don't buy this stupid reason channel is giving to axe BP of low trps
if it was so bothersome to them they should have worked on starting the show at correct time. even in 10.30pm slot the show was in top20 n was even slot leader, they could have looked into number n figured out that BP had loyal audiences even at that slot n the afternoon repeat telecast could have catered to the viewers who missed watching at late night (as far as I know, trp of repeats are also taken into account), infact it would have been a better strategy in long term, these viewers wouldn't quit even after BB ends coz by that time leap, adiya separation n reunion track would have started (n not rushed like now)
besides this show had amazing content n had given channel the international recognition that it was looking for since long, ofcourse by selling it for overseas viewers n dubbing in foreign languages, it will be telecasted in so many countries abroad, so in long run also the show will continue making money for the channel
also the channel had a bad image in urban viewers by showing nagin, dayan n other supernatural stuff it was already type-casted n rejected by most urban viewers who prefer to watch english shows, it brought back many of those viewers too, but now the channel will loose all those viewers n their trust as well
and the biggest loss even though there are no permanent enemies in showbiz, still the channel has upset such an old n well established PH n the stellar star cast, it is quite clear with everyone's goodbye post that none of the actors n team members are happy, infact all are pissed by such attitude
the show had a well established n mant veterans actors along with the leads, each brought their fan base too, the channel will now lose those fan base too (specially JW n HC fans), i doubt the leads will agree to work with the channel in near future after such an experience n ill-treatment
not to forget an indian hindi entertainment channel should try to have all types of shows if it wants to stay in business for long, shoud try to cater to all types of viewers, such that each turns on the channel for something, just sticking to supernatural stuff will ruin the channel in long run n people will get bored(already nagin franchise has lost many viewers) n the channel will soon face downfall, it should have learnt from rival channels how they have fiction, non-fiction, dance, music all shows throughout the week, that is why they have been able to survive in this business for this long
not to forget the channel itself launched with some really good content shows like BV, infact it was such shows combined with the weekend reality shows programming that made this channel make a place among top5 inspite of being new n inspite of having rival channels in business since long
BP gave this channel lot of online popularity n fame too, in these times if the channel looses SM following, it will prove fatal for the channel
all these SM teenage fans will slowly move to other love stories on rival channels like IB, KZK2 etc., and their loss will become their rival's gain
so colorless made a very wrong decision of shutting BP and this decision will have huge repurcussions for the channel, just hope it realises the mistake n works on it n corrects their strategy for other shows
coz no matter how much we pray, plead or trend, bepannaah is not going to be extended now, the PH, cast n team have lost trust n will not return n the channel is so blind not to even see what it is losing, infact even if realises n tries to manaofy the PH, I doubt they will come back
