All that Heera overdose and repetitive scheming, stupid things like much ado over kachoris (tbh, I didn't think even if it was a symbol of MS's betrayal that it justified all the drama), etc., etc., was mind numbingly offputting, but the leads' were still intact.
The writers don't matter, IMO. What matters is our lady of formulae's blueprint. This is why I didn't want Nakuul and Disha returning in a Balaji show. And I don't understand how they (NM, DP) fail to understand what a mess they (cvs) made, and if they did, is EK really so powerful or with such deep pockets that she can lure them, or at least Disha, back? And if they really meant the damage control rah-rahs they spouted in those ivs we came to dread, I have no words. Oh, wait, I do: they're not very smart or have different definitions of 'fresh', 'exciting' and whatever they tried to sell us.
Like Nita said, those first 160 episodes are what still make me want to at least follow the upcoming version, even if very cautiously. I've said it a hundred times -- that Priya is the love of my itv viewing life.
