For the last 2 weeks or 1 week there are no trps published. Why?

I think we are a "masses" itself. We are the online watchers a d we should be taken into account as well cause I'm pretty sure if we are measured against the tv watchers we would definitely win. There are more of us watching online cause we watch one scene 10 times where as on tv you only watch it once.

Hopefully they realize what a force we are and find a way to cater to us and in the process make money from it.

Cara.. this is an absolutely wonderful post.. The so called TRP masses are actually a few in India who watch the show at the time it airs and they actually represent perhaps 1/3 rd of actual viewership.. because even in India many watch shows online when they get time.. And TRP is not calculated among the viewership abroad in other countries, who watch it as it airs.. But all these people makes a show successful... and these days everything is being advertised through internet as well.. So its not that they cannot earn any money through internet.. they must be but they would not acknowledge it.

And if we think it in another way take the example of the Gold awards... those who voted and made the actors, the show and the channel successful did it through internet right.. and the channel in turn garnered a lot of advertisements and profit through the awards itself.. but indirectly who helped? the internet crowd.. so its not only those few who would watch the awards on time on 28th when it airs in India who really will make the awards successful.

I think you should post this on F32 or ZEE website.😊

What a great post! I am a Canadian too and can tell you that the only reason we subscribed to Zeetv was so that we could watch Qubool Hai. But I watch on the Internet too because I want to watch it earlier. And trust me ... If you're talking TRP aunties of Canada ... and if they're anything like my IPad carrying mother ... they are watching their shows online and rewatching them later on tv! Zeetv just broke off from their partnership with starplus earlier this year and they probably wanted to solidify their market here with legit subscriptions and IMO that's why they have put so much energy into shutting down the online episodes here in Canada. It's really frustrating if you want to watch a favourite older episode and can't find it. And it's really maddening that my voice as a passionate and loyal fan isn't as valued because of where I live!

The correction on TRP methodology will happen but over a period of time. Hope it happens in internet years😆

US / UK are also trying to take care of offline audience including internet views and views post DTH record etc. Yes - if BBC and other major net works can get up and smell the coffee why can't Hindi channels?

By the way, the current sample for determining TRP is as small 12,000 households in India which is pretty non-representative sample and that is also expected to be corrected. Yes - i bet we get more views on QH IF page in one day! We also have more likes on QH Face book pages!
