I have only been totally addicted to one TV serial ever and if I sat down and thought of all the illogical and predictable scenes that one had I should have given up on it soon after I started watching but I chose to ignore all the millions of bloopers and obvious body doubles and lack of logic to focus on and enjoy the story in front of me.
It's really not a case of people not being able to criticise here but it's about the type of criticism. If you have been on the forum you would have seen that there are people who especially in the beginning didn't like certain things and they were given the respect to express those views at the most they were asked to give it a chance. In fact it's still early days. When you see the same people only criticise and find fault then it's a natural reaction to wonder what they are doing watching a show that they find predictble, or the storylines to be ridiculous and pathetic or they find faults with the leads appearance, or they don't like the genre or as some have said they find it boring. Certainly makes me wonder what that person's motivation is to watch the show. Some people say they watch it just for Sanaya, that's so fantastic that you are willing to support your favorite even though you don't like the show but then why not go ahead supporting quietly...you already know you don't like it and have made a choice to watch it so why complain.
That's what I also said. Take it or leave it because that's the best you can expect in indian tv as you said. And if someone's sensibilities are different, they can watch other shows or likes of those shows which I mentioned.
The only thing I dnt agree is when someone criticizes , why do people who like the show feel so agitated? What is considered constructive criticism and what is destructive criticism? If someone feels very poorly about a show why can't they express in that way , why is it required to be toned down because it is not a personal remark against anyone, it is against a creative.
To quote an example, a certain guy made Aladdin and home delivery both of which were bashed by people in media in extreme harsh words. This guy found the motivation to improve and give us kahaani and yes we know it is Sujoy ghosh. Crticism or praise , why control them or qualify them as what is constructive or destructive so long it is not personal.
