Clearing apprehensions on 9.00 pm slot
Every1 seems pretty worried by this, I will tell u why it isn't so bad! I am reporting something I did in another thread.
Well i have an answer. See abt 9.00 pm slot. CC dnt work not only cz t was on that slot. Also u need to realize DABH which rules 9.00 pm is a full fledged saas bahu show. N another show f the same genre is not likely to drag those saas bahu niche viewers away 4m the already established show f that genre.
But that means the none saas bahu viewers which make the other main viewergroup is left unsatisfied at the said time slot. Those r the viewers like me who, even if i have nothing to do will rather sleep than watch DABH.
N now i will give a similar example. Balika vadhu 4m the day t was launched ruled not just the 8 pm slot but also the trp chart. N for 4yrs SP launched 1 show after the other in similar or saas bahu genres in that time slot without success.
But in 2011 SP launched its 1st star crossed love story that didn't have a SINGLE SP saas bahu show characteristic. The 1st of its kind for the channel. No1 expected it to succeed in the magical level it did. But they slotted an un-balika vadhu type show as it was possible to be against it. AND IT WORKED! after 4 yrs 1st time ever BV lost slot leadership! It was the week of the magical diwali promo.. i still remember the giddy joy i felt..
Then they both kept neck to neck for the next 4 months or so with IPK again taking a steady lead i Teri meri dance days.
But 1 fact was all through this time the only 2 tv shows from a same time slot to share 2 spots on the top 10 shows every single week without fail was BV & IPK. That was cz both shows while being equally good catered to 2 extremely different sets of audiences. Very rarely would u find an IPK fan who found BV to their taste n vise versa. So the tv's max viewership happened at 8pm for those 1.5yrs.
So what i am trying to say here is that just cz 9 pm slot is ruled by a saas bahu show doesn't mean no other show will succeed at that time. It will only need an extremely different genre that the audience group that utterly hatesss saas bahu shows will watch! N 4m the plotline i heard so far this seems to fit that mold to a T.
so do u realize where i am going with this?
And as for Big boss. they slot big boss against DABH for those different group of viewers i said.
Now think IF the said romance succeeds in 9.00 pm slot, would they need BB for that slot nex year? No right?
So they will slot BB at a different time slot next yr. cz audiences hardly remember which time slot a seasonal show came the previous year. it will simply change that slot if it comes to that.
n finally well.. watch today's SBS.. i am not gonna elaborate.. but there was a little hint that this news MIGHT be true...
don't ask me i am NOT gonna tell what it was lol. its up to u to figure out, now t hat i told that much!
Add to that the Tweet from a reporter abt San's lunch meeting in the green salwar at the hotel where Miss Diva or something took place, u will see that the chances for this news to be true is quite high..
