So called youth/new gen shows tend to be either or. Like star one used to have, mindless fluff. Or too much preachy with khichdi of drama and "youth". Makers try to be all at once- they want to get the hot couple, also want the numbers, also want to send a social message. What I like about mhrw is even though pallo had a past as widow it didn't drag too much on societal commentary. It comes in bits pieces like how pallo once said if u don't respect yourself people take advantage of you.
When a show don't know what audience it needs to cater to, it will fail. Any top rated show knows it's Audience and it will have tracks exactly that. Even if there is commentary (like SNS had a scene where FL talks about sindoor marriage validity) it's a high voltage drama and any normal viewer who never watched it might get hooked into. Makers need to take a topic and stick to it and don't make khichdi. The rating system need to take into consideration of online too, like a majority chunk of audience shifted to online (though it's tough like how they will track insta clip/yt/illegal sites viewership). We need type of story telling. Also fans need to get over their superiority complex 😂😂 their show is best and all...like if we pick each characteristics or scene of any itv nothing will be new. Story same, presentation different.
