so true.
the other show promo is q frequent, compared to the non-existing RR promo ..

and on top of that, Colors have stop RR marathons on weekend.
they used to repeat all 5 episodes at one go,
but now, its only the last 2 episodes on Sat night ..
and then the same repeat of Friday's episode on early Sunday morning .. 🤢

I swear... the promo thing is strange. Absolutely strange. Now I watch a certain comedy show everyday on Colors because nothing nice is happening elsewhere. Those are repeats too. I have not caught the promo even once. In this entire weekend, I watched all of the Players of Danger Game, and Comedy- and a dozen of "Limitless" promos. I even caught those promos on other channels. If I were a lay audience member, I would not have known RR exists. Why such partiality, I don't know.
As for the edited telecast, I understand. See the ordinary air time at 9.30 is around 27 minutes. According to Indian broadcasting rules, a channel is permitted 15 minutes of commercials during a 1 hour program. By this logic, a half an hour long show will have a 7-8 minute break. The channel cannot fulfill this criterion at the prime time. So they shorten repeats and compensate. Which is still acceptable. But lack of promos, I don't get.

In these last few weeks, the offscreen videos have also come down drastically. I know people complained about spoilers, but they could always release such videos after the episode airs. What about that?

I will come and beat you. 😛

No I'm serious. One can see the politics behind popularity of that show and get swayed by the promos. Sad part is, most of the aam janta WILL get swayed.

Could the reason for promoting BI so much is because they want a large audience to carry into Rang Rasiya's time slot? I read somewhere on IF that RR starts at 9:28 p.m or immediately after BI, and that's when the TRPs are recorded. Is that right or did I misunderstand everything?

I'm not sure. That's still a lame reason. Because most people might just not watch the whole epi of BI to wait for RR. And even if they do hang on, RR doesn't show the recap anymore. It would be bizarre to them. They won't know the story, and the story IS pretty complex already.

It could also be that since RR is doing well on an online platform and internationally, they find no point in advertising at the desi level?
