IMPORTANT: HOW SERIALS WORK (CVs, channels)

Hello, everyone.

Here is something I am very guilty of -- being ignorant of the process of show-making. We all have shaken our heads, pulled our hair, and some have even thrown things at the screen, wondering what is going on with LTL. It's like something out of the Twilight Zone. Things just did not make sense all of a sudden. Hopefully, this will explain why it is happening:

This is common to most if not all serials, including LTL.

An idea for a show comes from a production house or an individual. A channel, like COLORS, will buy the concept, and the channel's creatives will come in and decide the tracks, timing, etc. These CHANNEL CREATIVES give the production house briefs and terms of the story and the production house has to execute on it -- shooting the scenes, editing, etc.

The CHANNEL CREATIVE team and the PRODUCTION HOUSE team meet often and come up with ideas about upcoming tracks, and what the CHANNEL would like to see. Now differences could crop up between the two teams about what to do, and when that happens, the track either gets reworked or the PRODUCTION HOUSE gets unceremoniously dumped.

With LTL, this is how it probably works. Once they are given the brief, the creative heads of the production house get into action to execute on the brief, with writers and actors, and crew. Once filmed and edited, the tapes are handed over to the channel again, and the channel packages it and shows it on air as a whole.

So it seems that what we are seeing on LTL these days is more the handiwork of COLORS, which decides the tracks and how the stories, characters should go.

Good God! COLORS people guiding these shows! Now it all makes sense!😆😭
