ok..the name sounds silly but.I couldn't think of a good name... All that I want to communicate through this thread is that how much does TRP matter these days rather why TRP matter so much...Is it indeed a measure of a shows popularity?
According to me NO...would like to know your views though
TRP was fine when the only way of watching a show was TV...but these days due to DTH people can record a show and watch it later...also people catch episodes of their fav shows on youtube and other sources as per their convenience.
Take a show like RBO the kind of viewers it has are not necessarily the one who will watch it when it is being aired on the TV ...but may catch it later online...they may not even watch it but create VMs or make posts and discusss it...does this not count as popularity?
According to me most of the viewed gallery on starone site is that of RBO...also the most no of comments are on RBOs article (Please correct me if I am wrong coz I have started following RBO since October only)...Its only when it comes to voting that we fall short at times....but the no of posts and variety of discussions we have about the show and its characters...the lovely VMs ...the siggies..the likes...the silent readers...is it not a proof that we love RBO so much and the show is quite popular amongst the kind of audience it is meant to cater to....Primarily youth...so why should TRP be considered as a measure of how this show is and make the show face consequences like no promos or repeats...I really feel frustrated at times..
Please give your views.
I hope my post makes sense...and the content is relevant...also my comments in the post are based on several assumptions...
Thankyou...
Love,
Madhura..
