Cry me a TRP over Guls interview - Page 7

I am from New Zealand and I became a fan of 4 Lions because of IPKKND! I watched it on Star Plus which I had on my cable network. I started to watch a few months late and caught up to the old episodes on YouTube.

Zee TV I don't have on cable. So I caught up with QH a few months after it started on YouTube. I loved the show and continued to watch on YouTube till they blocked it. Now I watch it on Desi Tashan which I found doing a Google search.

I wish Zee had continued to show the full episode on YouTube. I still watch IPK and ARSHI videos on YouTube. I know Gul knows that the online audience is a huge driver of their shows! IPK should have taught them that! I was an active member of the IPK forum and now I come on the QH forum everyday too!👏

Therefore the die hard fans of 4 Lions shows are online and both 4 Lions and the channels need to accept this reality! I wish these fuddy duddy channel execs would get with the programme! The TRP auntie phase is gone! It is now the time of tech savy global viewers! 👏

Indian TV need to identify their wider market! Some of us are not even Indian. I have never been to India. I just like to watch some BW movies and I am now hooked on some TV shows. So I hope going forward they decide to cater to an audience that "connects to high class realism" too, coz some of us DO belong to that group!

Great post..I agree with most of it !

Unfortunately the way for calculating the viewership of a show is not accurate..I have always been upset about this system since IPK days..

They should definately add up the online viewership as well

because what should matter is the real number of viewers..

If online audience plus trp audience are added up i am sure there would be no one who can beat QH ..same was the case with IPK
