A rather DAMP 100th epi

The good: Anant or the CVs has gotten the fashion tips and Drool-some was back to his more droolsome self - even if they were all half shots and there were too few of them!
The DAMP SQUID parts:
1. More than 50% is Rama - baby pretence thingy - which I happily skipped... so for me todays epi was all of 5 minutes or less!
2. More OTT from meeta (as expected) and the filler with Ritz-Appy continues...now it is a bit too much & boring frankly! 😲
Summary: Dont bother watching it all - Part 3 has Anant typing in Navya a few times on his PC and yaad karo-ing... and watch Anant drive to the mall (2 minutes or less - hoping the girls will get Navya out). So spare the 3 minutes - and thats about it for today!!!
You would THINK that they would have even shown some ANYA long-distance yaad karo-ing and such other cute things... too bad - we got Rama, Bua Daadi and Dukhi Atmas instead. so much for serial marketing skills !

Dee, u forgot the 22 secs for precap, where we finally see anant talking to navya after 2 whole days. I for once hope to get a look at the tee, with a full shot.

I sometimes wonder if this show is about Anant-Navya or Rama and her stupid sister! Such a drag.

Dee, I agree a very damp & depressing epis. Really not worth watching at all 🤢 What is with this love affair that the CVs have with Rama? Don't get it at all. That whole Rama fiasco was too much to digest. Poor Mohan, feel for him. I would really head for the Himalayas, as someone suggested in another post, if I were him. 😔

Nice post Dee!

Agree with u reg most points ( except the last)...

I think there are 2- 3 sets of writers on this show:
1.For anya scenes
+/- 2)For navya's home
3.For the looney bin- ekkktaa kaaapurr's spares (sowyii if I got the extra r's/k's/a's wrong )

I think this is why we get a disjointed feel on viewing the segments...It's to pull together 3 subsets of viewers,for the corresponding 3 above:
1)The FB teenyboppers
+/- 2) We, the discerning and sophisticated young(ish) crowd 😃 (why stint on self praise even if we are more like 🤡s)
3)The massive loyal maataji fanbase

Since 1) and 2) are finicky and kabhi haan kabhi naa depending on skool/college/work/moods/who wins control of the remote/other commitments , the CVs will have to show (d)rama &her shenanigans regularly for their loyal viewership no 3.

So even though I dont like it, methinks its pretty savvy marketing skills!😊

Hi Nisha, as always you had me in splits reading your post. Loved it to bits, esp. @ Bold.

But seriously, I too was thinking the same. They must have different writers, because the difference b/w the AnYa scenes college & home included, and the looney clan is stark. No way could they be written by the same set of writers, it's like night & day. Case in point, diff. b/w yest. epis. which was ultra cute to today's. It seems like they are two different serials altogether. They need to publish which epis. has been written by which team of writers, then we can all selectively watch the epis. it'll save us all this anguish.

But these guys don't understand the basic rule of Mktg. 101. Try to find your target audience before you launch a product. When you try to please everyone, you end up pleasing NONE!!

@Anyafan..thank you the post Dee..i'll surely take your advice and miss todays epi..I cannot bear so much torture from Rama without any anya scenes...
I guess i'll catch that few mins of drooly anant tomorrow.
I was waiting for Tanu's post..but it seems she will not be posting today..as if it seems there was nothing for her to post either.. i am glad you made this post Dee.
@Asha..thanks for that 22sec precap update..will surely catch the precap before gng to sleep today...as i'll get to see anya together😊
@Nisha..loved your segmentation of viewers and the analysis of marketing skills( for once i was attending my marketing lecture all over again..)
Even i feel that there are different writers ..the scenes do look disjointed and dismantled at times..
2) We, the discerning and sophisticated young(ish) crowd 😃 (why stint on self praise even if we are more like🤡 s)
I dont mind a little self-praise too😉..reality (🤡)jo bhi ho so ho😉😆..as if we are definately not like the FB teenyboopers..who loves to see loaffer anant with long hair..and who wants to get anya married at the age of 19...
or rahi baat loyal mataji fanbase..to phir loyality ke badle itna to banta hi hai...
they hav e ot keep the mix..to keep the trp gng...they cannot trust us..the moody/senti/working/nursing crowd..for sure..

Nice post, Dee..Agree the episode was anything, but, buoyant...😃

The 3min were, the saving grace..😊.infact, went on YT, to view that part ...And, yes,was smitten by him, in that tee..😳.
@asha - 22sec was sheer jubiliation, after that disenchanting episode, they offered..., yeah, even, I was looking forward, to getting, a full fledged view in that tee..but..Cvs decided ,otherwise...😔.
@geeta - very true, try pleasing everyone, end up, pleasing none..but do you think, this has registered in those, over intelligent minds...🤔
@nisha - ditto..am sure,there are a disparate bunch, contriving, their thoughts...and thank u , feel priviledged, to be a part of , the discerning and sophisticated, youngish crowd...😉 .
Lastly, this---->🤗 for initiating that ,very laudable thread, for me...thank u...😳 ❤️🤗
@urmi - Yes, Trps matter most, that is why, they cater mainly, to the, maaji category...😔

Agree with ur points...the 100th episode was indeed a damp one...from 1st to 100th we got a lot of beautiful magical scenes...so why cant we forgive the showmakers for the error...i know that we fans expected a special century treat...the present storyline is the culprit...hope for the best and wait for a magical treat in the coming weeks...cheers...
