I also know writers get advice from the channel management. Some heads of TV channels are really nice, they let their writers write what they want, while others are a lot more serious with what they want to see, thus there is greater interference.
TRPs alone are a poor indicator of the show's success. What if audience watched the show merely because there was nothing else (no IPL, no big new story, no celebrity news) or if audience decided to give the show another week despite the poor tracks? I say this because Pandya Store fluctuates with 1 week of good episodes and 1 week of bad episodes. I feel like the best indicator of success is TRPs paired with online view counts. I am very interested to see the view count of the earliest Pandya Store episodes as they were written very, very well.
