I just want to know one thing... yaar why aren't there no more good serials on the telly? I am getting so thoroughly bored in the vacations, and cant even see TV jus bcz there's nothing on it except than tear jearking sagas like kyunki, kahani, bidaai n all d similar crap. And they are supposed to "serve d masses"... arn't d youngsters a part of d masses? Where's d cult catering to our needs? Who d hell gives a shit to kitchen politics? Or whether u hav some "secret" in ur family or not? Dead wives, loony grandmoms, wicked in-laws, married aunts who stay at their parents' houses along with their husbands and children and their spouses, men who dont work n stay at home to listen to women's useless banters, doctors who just play basketball or hav bike racing or indulge themselves in 'pyar, ishq n mohabbat'... (stupid all of them, but damn gud looking) kidnappings whose ransom runs into a few hundred crores, bussiness deals of again a few thousand crores, generations of relatives living together under one roof, any newcomer welcomed in d family as their own n then married off to some member of d family itslf, one bussiness loss n voila u r in a chawl (yet wearing sarees n jewellery worth crores), artificial heavy make up, men n women marrying scores of times, murders, rebirths, plastic surgeries, revenge, ahhhhh i m BORED of these.... plz give me somthng new.... and refreshing....
When Star One was introduced a few yrs ago, it had such a huge variety of serials serving d youth like remix, sarabhai vs sarabhai, dil kya chahta hai, pyar ki kashti me, hotel kingston, siddhanth, special squad, laughter challenge.... but after these got over (atleast they did, unlike many others on Star Plus n Sony which run longer than Mahabharata n Ramayana) no serial could cum up to their levels.... sadly bt true.... And we have to b hooked on to english serials like Friends to pass our times. For d past one month i hav nt watchd a single hindi channel, but faithfully swithched from AXN to Star World to Zee Studios n others, watching an occasional flick on HBO or Star Movies or Zee Cafe or Bindaas... Hey i forgot to mention abt d 3 new channels of Bindaas... they r gud.... actually.... but not upto d mark.... not evn NDTV Imagine (they hav all d funny sounding serials... thats d best part!!! d only best part)

u forgot some finer points of the soaps:
1.women with pregnancies longer than elephants and their bellies never seem to carry even the tiniest foetes!
2. the series of apshaguns.
like if a hubby had an accident,the wife will get to knw it thru her sindoor pot falling or something as far fetched.
the only reason i watch soaps is for th cute guys and pretty gals!
ofcrse... hw cud i miss these... actually i evn forgot to mention the innumerable brain dead n repitative comedy shows, talent hunts and d oh-not-so-real reality shows as well...
mou
"wat's happening on the telly world", is really gud. keep it up!!
