Each one of the items this columnist lists out reads like "what you should not watch on TV"... Pose the weekly episodic dexter type of content vis a vis a movie with the same stuff - a few of us might watch it and forget it. The constant reinforcement of the tv kind is likely to cause an impression on maladjusted individuals and propagate unwanted behavior...couchpotato might just transform into some else...hmmm? Of the next item one cant say much - perhaps yet another manifestation of the roadlessness that american adults seem to be experiencing in the middle of their ultra-progress...the third is not talkworthy too.
Therefore best for us are our eminently forgettable, , divine mother saaas goody 2shoes bahu scheming other woman, spoilt scions...and all that jhingalala bang...dipped in ad-sauce. That or the reality productions that keep mushrooming by the week - mr and ms TV is the latest to come up - with model hostess, movie star judges and TV soap star-contestants... what a good life for the desi couchpotato!
Boss our idea of mature televison died a good while ago...when buniyaad... nukkad... yeh jo hai zindagi et al stopped airing... all this stuff you talk about (and conveniently point to the Youtube) is mal-content more than mature...
