Soaps drop off air without fanfare - Article - Page 2

thanks for the article

I think she simply meant that they were told finally, after 6 years on air, the show will come to an end in a month. Of course she made a slight mistake (or slip of the tongue): it was on-air for about 7 years not 6. That's all. Nothing more to it. 😊

Frankly I am not at all sad to see the Balaji era coming to an end. It was long overdue. It's time for change. 😊

Perhaps the "endless soap" format should be dumped permanently. Instead, all the channels should aim for each drama to have a specific end at a specific predetermined date. Make a good show, end it on a good note while you're still getting TRPs and then move on to the next show. This is better than good shows coming to pathetic ends. 😉

I also think Indian tv needs to introduce the season concept: have a couple of months seasonal break each year. Plan the storylines in terms of seasons. This way you can plan ahead and also use the break time to reformat the show if things are not going well. Right now they are shooting all the time, sometimes even hours before airing an episode which means there is no time to concentrate on quality at all. 🤔

I very much agree to U.

it must be that not 6 years henceforth but 6 years in all or could be a typo mistake of weeks & not years.

KK didnt have a low TRP. so many times it was listed in top 20s

anyways--------

i agree with u both

Yup anuradha is not saying that kk was to run for more 6 yrs but she is trying to tell that kk will come to an end after running for 6 yrs..i agree that if trp is less serial should not work and also there was no story going in kk since 6 months and strike and then hussain went for break so it was natural that trp was going low and serial is to close..

i hate starplus and hv locked this channel on my tv..thts all i know now!!
