Either many of the early disillusioned ones leave (leading to less reach) or the stubborn, optmistic ones stick on but skip irritating parts (leading to lesser amount of time spent on the serial)...
Either way or both combined, the disenchantment with a show shows... in the TRPs...
So, after a week of glorious resurrection and a touching of that magical figure of 1.0 TRP, with the whole positive marriage and no miscarriage track, it seems to be getting back to square one!! π‘π‘π‘π‘
From an avg. of 0.8 (0.9 if we exclude the new Saturday), we are back to a weekly avg. of 0.6, with nothing in the coming week to ensure a spike or a rise!! π€’π€’π€’ (what with the NT poisoning leading to uncertainty in marriage and now the 'important to Maan, bitchy, sister who dislikes Geet' track)
A note to New CVs and a Reminder to the Old ones π‘π‘π‘
You need to understand, that Geet was NOT about constant negativity and the trials of Geet... dont take the title of GHSP so literally each time....
it was about the positive, refreshing, journey of a wronged yet courageous woman determined to set a precedent in society and about her unconventional and very unique relationship with an esteemable, brusque, care-a-damn man with a heart of gold.
What set it apart was the refreshing take on relationships, rich and believable characterization and a positive and just view abt the problems in society... not as a depressing mirror to what is... but a positive, progressive outlook on what can and should be ππ
But somewhere you seem to have forgotten that... amongst the hundreds of interesting and positive ways in which to get around the problem of 6 days a week and extending a storyline.... you seem to come up with ways which are not only depressingly, no irritatingly negative but also those that do not fit in with the very DNA or essence of the show, the characters...
you have created beautifully flesh n blood, and richly believable characters... dont make tehm shallow, inconsistent and a shadow of their former selves. Also believe me there are many ways to make interesting twists rather than saas-bahu, nand-bhabhi politics... those are the things Geet is SOOO not made of...
Finally, a request... please wake up before it is too late, and stop flooding the show with constant negativity with a few stolen moments of joy for Geet... We loved it coz it helped us unwind at the end of a day... with constant negativity we have less incentive to watch it... we could simply watch Ekta....
Wake up before our patience snaps... wake up while there is still time!
