Exactly. Well the shows like Saathiya (Beginning), Yhm (Beginning), Badtameez Dil, Ishqbaaz (Highly butchered), Pardes Mein Hai Mera Dil, Ek Bhram Sarvagunn Sampanna (Highly Butchered) etc etc and the list goes on. Favourite shows in past where Saathiya (Before 10 years leap) and Yhm (Before 7 years leap) and also Ib (Before the stupid redux). 😭
But in terms of content Saathiya, Yhm and Khkt. Saathiya had a very beautiful, comical and family like episodes but after 10 years leap the show completely got ruined, Yhm was excellent and the first ekta show which i followed as it was excellently written. It was based on a novel actually but same happened after leap it ruined. Ishqbaaz wasnt my favourite in terms of content but couples are still favourite. My first favourite couple is actually Shivika as i fall in love with their chemistry minus all the force marriage and crap they were fab. The bromance, the bonding, the friendship, comedy all was just lovely. But Shivika were killed in the show unfortunately and as an ardent couple shipper of them it hurted me alot. Honestly Shivika were my favourite couple but now Ronakshi and Shivika are my top fav couples.
Anyways within these few weeks i had moved onto Netflix and Hotstar (HBO Originals, Showtime, Star World) and watched numerous great shows. What are you watching these days on OTT by the way ?
Seems like shit Plus has a habit of butchering good shows🤦🤦
If this habit doesn't stop, the decline is lined up for them!
I have always lived on OTT platforms!! Never even decided to look into ITV... Only coz I watched Bigg Boss and loved Dipika, I decided to try out ITV... Otherwise, I don't think Indian saas bahu nonsense was ever lined on my watchlist😆
I prefer to watch sitcoms most of the time! Some really good sitcoms I have watched are How I met ur mother, friends, this is us, modern family, Run and these days I have been binge watching Young Sheldon!
Others in random genre are Stranger things, BoJack Horseman, Making A Murderer, Daredevil, Master of none, etc.
I don't watch too many thrillers because I prefer reading books of the thriller genre😆 Watching thriller doesn't sit well with me I wonder why😆
American romcoms aren't really good so I don't watch them... Korean ones are super intense and outstanding! Best example being Goblin! This is the only show I have ever cried in and twice in KHKT!!
Indian web shows include a lot on HBO originals, and on prime, Netflix and all...
Recently I watched a show called The Forgotten Army- Azaadi ke Liye... It is really good and is an attempt to remove the blindfold we Indians have with regard to our true freedom fighters! I just feel disgusted at the British who have played and have been meddling with our history! I don't wish to get into the political part of spoiling our history coz I don't want to get into a war zone on political parties in the forum😆 But on a serious note, do watch this show! Some people say Kabir Khan has made this web show in an attempt to create sympathy for the Rohingyas, but I don't see that element in it at all...
