I absolutely agree with each and every word of yours. Sadly the CV's don't understand.
People think that this is an AR issue - and that we're making a big deal out of this, but clearly it's DMG's issues. DMG has always been a show which has attracted viewers for it's characters, concepts and portrayal, but now - all that's gone. I don't understand why "sudden changes" have happened - and if they were even needed, but CV's think they are/were. Certain characters used to be so bold, and so mature, but as "time" has gone on, those characters have slowly faded into the background and have stuck like wallpaper. The characters are... characterless |:
I remember for a fact that Ridhima used to be so bold and outspoken, and was head strong with her decisions, but her character dies out, literally. As for Armaan, he was such a happy go lucky, fellow but now even that's gone. Siddhant used to be the bubbly, fresh flirty boy but now... he's a jorou ka ghulaam. Eek.
Whatever it is though, I honestly think this show's going downhill by the day. For a certain extent they (CV's) go on trying to please a certain fan group, then move on to the next, and then onto the next and this is how the cycle continues causing a VERY INCONSISTENT storyline!
I hope they mature, or at least start ATTEMPTING to use their brains - and do something which will BENEFIT the show...
Peace.
