Why did you feel that these shows can be finite?I feel that these shows can be dragging types.
To be honest mujhe Imlie, Ghum, Anupama se humesha season format wali vibes milti hai but pata nahi ye sach mein hoga ki nahi. Season format makes things much more better. Actors keliye aur accha aur audience ko new shows aur apne fav show dono ka maza milta hai. And we are lucky more because we have daily soaps so here seasonal format with a proper story planning will work like a charm.
