Are Indian TV Soaps really entertaining??

Well, they really are subjective like OBJ puts it. Though what you stand with quite makes sense, producers are earning money depressing people aah, but some people arent depressed as well, some people are attracted to the shows .. you've heard of the phrase misery loves company.. same rule applies here.. sad people want to watch sad stuff which will somehow make them feel less sad. - actors are getting famous promoting glycerine companies, so on and so forth. If there's already so much you've yourself got to deal with, why watch aunties and uncles and their various kids struggle on TV? This is what majority likes - a bit of conspiracy, a lot of melodrama and male actors standing like statues aside. My Dadi and Nani top the list, I cant help but ask Dadi, 'why do Archana and Manav always keep crying?' but she never seems to listen - too engrossed!

BUT, there's meaningful and lighthearted TV too. Take Sasural Genda Phool, for example or well the institution of "Youth Shows", lets just not get into the fact that they get terribly ruined of the idea of 'keep running' the storythe problem is that the writers are scared that they wont be able to come up with anything better so just ride the wave😆 and then, we have so many reality shows. Most are scripted, but the rest like Emotional Atyachar and all those seriously serious youth disasters actually emotional atyachaar isnt a proper cheating show.. they send agents to test loyalty.. not like the original "cheaters" programme which had hidden cams to find out if ppl were already having affairs can be better stress busters than comedy shows and Kekta actresses put together! 😆 true, emotional atyachaar is hilarious!

btw, what is entertaining is very subjective, it may vary from person to person, like underwear.
