On indian soap dramas

Move over Day of Our Lives and Bold and the Beautiful! Thanks to Astro's new moves on pleasing their customers by introducing more new channels we can now have ZeeTV from India in our homes with 24 hours of hindi language shows. Of course it is nice to watch tv shows on the very same language that we speak at home being in a foreign land and all, but the happiness ends there.

Not only the soap dramas are draggy, they are totally mindless and senseless and take up 70% of the air time. Furthermore even the reality shows seem to be fixed and acted out very well with various controversies. At the end of the day, I dont just lose my logical thinking but also the chance to watch any other show on Astro, thanks to my mom who is almost glued to the tv... thank god i've got other things keeping me busy although tv has always been my first love.. its now been taken away from me :(
