Daily Soaps - Give me a break !
It would seem to everyone that I am on the "Hating the Television" mode, but its not like that.
I am genuinely concerned about the regressive shows that we all watch everyday. I mean what are we feeding our minds everyday is not something worth the time we spend before the idiot box. These shows are nothing but exaggerated version of our daily life issues which should not be stretched but sorted asap.
We all are human, bound by relationships. But what we see on TV is more hate than love, more irrationality than what we see in real life. Just to spice up the fiction, no serial is left with normalcy that we expect out of life.
My problem is in 99% daily soaps there is no story. I don't know what the writers do to them. They just start with a concept that max to max goes on screen for a month then the regular, repetitive stuff happens.
One woman marries many, the past love becomes the vamp, the male protagonist will always have women swooning over him, the saas would be the toned down version of hitler and sasural would have many women dipped in make up, jewellary and designer sarees coiling their hair always with fingers, cursing people at heart, plotting against the innocent lead girl with leaky eyes.
I wonder who is such a person in real life? Who goes to sleep with make up on face? Who gets up with perfect hair? Is there a girl who worships almighty, then her in laws, then her husband all day? Should there be a girl who tolerates everything yet do her duties without saying word? Don't these serials promote male chauvinism in the name of ideal wife, ideal bahu, ideal mother, ideal woman as a whole? Aren't these shows making people believe that there exist an ideal woman, somewhere out there but sadly your daughter in law in not that woman? They show woman is not human but deities who may be are cursed so on earth and to redeem their old life, they have to cry and cry till the glycerin runs out of wholesale market stock!
All in all, these shows are ridiculous.
We need quality entertainment not recycled garbage!
Tell me what you think!
