After a long time Indian channels seem to reject these old saas bahu serials. I myself was quite relieved to know that star plus had decided to get the serial kyunki....off air. Though the court case is going on, i would feel its quite a good move by the channel.
I was just sitting the other day, thinking about all the old tv serials that used to come on tv. I remember as a kid, my mom watching different serials when I wanted to watch my favorite cartoon, Scooby doo. There were many soaps like saans, daastan. It was when cable tv had come to Goa. There were some nice 1 hour episodes of short stories called rishtey which used to come zee tv. A show, very touching, stories of the common man. I used to love watching them.
I think the show that changed indian television was the emergence of Amitabh Bachchan on the small screen with his show the famous KBC. And then the reality show bandwagon started. Kicking off on channel [V], channel v popstars. this show i think was the first singing reality show that made singers. Ofcourse shows like sa re ga ma and antakshri were n air since the early 90's.
