Everyone here collectively bashes itv but if it's all about numbers and figures then itv is way bigger than ptv. Does that mean ITv content are also better than ptv?
I left watching supernatural around 9th or 10th season and that dp is just there because I am lazy to change it and Jensen ackles is forever hot😆. Also comparing an American supernatural series that ran successfully for 15yrs to a drama that cannot keep up it's story for 5 months is the height of logical comparison 😆. I also don't take any actor or show that i watch seriously so feel free to bring down any drama or actor i like. I might even join you in the roasting if it makes sense. 😆
lol I was joking about spn. I also stopped watching after the 10th season. Seasons 3 to 5 were the best and then it was ok.
When talking about the quality of tv shows/movies, it's all subjective. But the numbers do tell you what people like watching and that ultimately determine the fate of dramas/movies. What critics or certain fans feel about the quality doesn't matter as long as companies are making money from their products. Take the heavily criticized Twilight and Transformers movies for example. They kept making them despite the criticism because people kept watching them and making the studios lots of money.
In short, the numbers matter more because that's what the studios depend on.
I assume you're saying Anupama is a bigger hit than TB. I don't disagree, but TB likely gets over 200 million views per month on YT. But in general, dramas/movies in India will find bigger success because of the population and market there.
ITV does get bashed but it does have plenty to offer that keep people watching it. I myself watched Madhubala Ek Ishq Ek Junoon recently. Although, I skipped almost every scene that didn't include the main leads I still watched 280-290 eps because there was something I liked about it (Madhubala).
I'm there are people who think ITV is much better than PTV and that's their opinion, which is perfectly fine.
