I cant believe this new channel is not bothered about viewer feedback.
The viewers have shown so much of repugnance at the turn of events and yet the serial doesn't seem to have a remote chance of recovery.
It is a prime time show and with viewers deliberately turning their backs, won't it be a terrific loss? What makes these guys tick? As it is the audience is small (I think) and now with the faithful staying away, aren't they worried? Or is it a deliberate ploy to kill off the show?
I just don't get it ...........😲 Sorry I hope I am not overstepping the line in criticism.

Skepti,
Most channels don't really act on viewer feedback....this is not the first show I'm watching being ruined like this....whatever little serial experience I have😆.....I've seen this happen in the past also.
Although given that is a new channel and is trying to show atleast somewhat different kinds of shows from the K-brigage....I was hoping that they wouldn't go off track in b/w😕😕
As for what they're thinking right now, they only know....yes it makes no sense as to why they are continuing with this....😕

If you see most of the Indian shows, it starts with a girl's ambition and ends up being another saas-bahu saga. The argument, this is what the viewers want... I am not sure who these viewers are -- who enjoy torture, multiple marriages, dozen of vamps torturing a single soul..., and the same dialogues--these middle class worms.

I did not watch today's episode, and I have nothing to add or say.

Nurie❤️,
The channel doesn't have a single K - serial and so I started seeing this one. I too thought it would steer clear of the usual humbug. But alas that was not to be!! 😡🤢

Nuuuuuumeeeeesssssssss,
I am shocked. 😲 My sensibilities are outraged. I truly cant believe anyone would want to see such tripe. But what you say must be true because every channel is offering such fare. Uggggggghhhhhhh!! And Jo is saying B +ve. Oh dear!

At present, Except Balika Vadhu, all the top 10 are all about scheming saas-bahu sagas. I am so done with these serials. Lack of creativity, and when the serials run for so long... one does not know what to do...

I think, in India also, concept of season should start.

Forgot to mention, that is Ekta's favorite argument, this is what the viewers want.

I completely agree!! This concept is BADLY needed here!! As it is actors are overworked....if everyone managed to take a break and rest their brains, MAYBE they would even manage to come up with something new and good!
What's interesting though is.....I just recently saw a promo of Desperate Housewives which apparently took a leap of 5 years in its new season....I just cracked up when I saw that...and wondered if Kekta was rubbing off on U.S. soaps as well😕😆😆

The leap of five has not made those ladies grand mothers with daughter-in-laws to sudharo and etc. It is more like their lives after five years, (whatever I know after reading online, *I more into reading serials than watching them 😆😆😆)

Anyways, what I think is, the season can also bring in more creativity, and in the three months break, creatives can go back to the brainstorming for fresh ideas. But, we still do not have good enough concept of script writers/story line in India whether it be movies or serials.
