The show that followed SGP is a roaring failure and they are giving lame excuses like IPL.

SGP when aired brought about such a needed change and it became the most discussed and admired show which topped the charts. It kept up the pace throughout and we waited just to join the mad gang and enjoy everyday just to watch their madness. The leads, Ilesh and Inder.

Then the forum was taken over by those who ridiculed the lead actress, ridiculed the episodes and generally hounded out the admirers. They used the forum for personal development rather than SGP development. While all the other forums loved their lead and defended like anything.

And SGP producers got tired and went to produce one soap which is still unable to take off even an inch. They showered all their love for this new show and neglected SGP but what a failure they are facing.

I congratulate Ragini Khanna who was the soul of this show and carried the show to such great heights with her madness.

@bold i also felt the same but never expressed it, glad to know some one else have matching vibe's, rightnow u had the gut's to be 1st to express it.

if they now see all the episode, they will find none of the episode was bad.
their problem was that the story didn't moved on in the pace as expected by them & if u comment them they say we r true fan's, critics etc.etc...

😆 Seems like you are talking about US !! Who called themselves Sgpians, who were here 24/7 ...I guess you are right we were using the forum as OUR PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT !! ( laughing out loud) and not to forget build up FRIENDSHIPS! Darn it we didn't drool over the leads which was the main purpose, we should have said bravo to everything even if we thought they were running the characters one after the other, we should not have appreciated all the cast but just concentrated on the leads like all the other forums...and even then the actors and CV,s thought great about the Sgpians of India Forums for there honest and impartial opinion... Well now SGP is finished most of us don't watch any of the other crap shown on Star so we are not bothered what is coming and what is not.
I wish you came here and commented when SGP needed loyal fans like you when peopel like us HOUNDED the poor show with our sharp comments and ridiculled the show, so bad you came here when the ground is open for you to say what ever and blaming the people who made the forum live and kicking 24/7 ...
Apologisies if I sound like hounding you and using this as a personal development .

Whatever it is,I would always prefer the personal development more than the development of SGP coz now I can boast about a great group of people I met on this forum,who are friends with me in FB and understand me,my opinions and my views even if they don't agree with it.And I am glad that I used the forum for this because participating in the story development of the show was a waste of time.We were taunted after we criticized the show(for good...and I don't have a second opinion about that),the creatives replied to the messages with a rough tone so I give a damn about such people and their shows.So I am very happy that from the first day in the forum(1 march 2010) till the last day (21 April 2012),I have taken every opportunity to utilize the forum for my personal developments.😃
And regarding the new show,don't forget that when SGP was launched,it could grab only 0.5-1 trps during the initial few months.The trpd increased only when Sona entered the show in November,before that,the show had the same fate like Ek dusre se...
@dhinman-Sorry,but if I watch the old episodes again,I'll still say the show was at its CRAPPIEST BEST after the first year.Ishaan losing memory by seeing a mole on a stranger's waist and regaining it by falling on the ground,and you expect us to praise such storyline?Agar meta has chalta toh I would have virtually slapped the creative for butchering every character,even KK at the end.
The only thing that amazes me was where were you all when the above mentioned 'critics' were making posts and praising scenes like the gift of smile,etc?

i really wonder how we can develop SGP in the forum???can u please explain TM??

I am very happy to have chosen personal development as i got to know soo many people here. I have spent even my entire day in the forum chatting with my friends about everything...I have gained a lot from this forum...

as SB said...some of the episodes were very bad and eg is the Mumbai track...when i was in bangalore a couple of days back...i was excited as can see SGP in Star Utsav...bt when i saw te Mumbai track...i did not feel nostalgic or missed SGP at that time...SGP has had its share of bad episodes...and i will never ever deny that

Hey guys, how r u all?
Didn't expected dat i can see d old membrs of dis forums in any discussion of dis kind wher its already more dan 1 month after d last ep of d show. Glad dat I can see still u guys around. :-)
But I think about dis discussion is EVERY 1 HAVE DER VIEWS ABOUT ANYTHING & dis is d only a good platform which r givn 2 us wher v can share it & get evry kind of reactions. D topic maker may b was not dat activ here & he/ she givin his views when d ground is all open but I don't think it means dat he/ she can't express it aftr when very less people activ here.
I think (don't take me wrong plz) but SGP old membrs should appreciate it dat some1 is sharing der views wid this forum & as I said NO place is as good as dis place any where 2 share it. :-)
D creatives of d show has may b made so many mistakes aftr d 1st year of its telecast but. I think its v d loyal audience who can make dem realise in some extra good ways wher dey can clear der mistakes & not by using bad words( I know u guys has already done so much efforts 4 dis b4).
Of corse dey really vry disappointed us in MUMBAI TRACK & dis was d main cause 4 d SGP 2 loosing its soul & 4 dis mess d creatives should nevr give d excuses.
Its also d truth dat ther r still millions of people in dis world WHO loved dis show more dan any thing lyk me & still hopping 4 its come back. Its lyk precious DIAMOND 4 us which can nevr go out of our mind & v all know it, WHY.
Its not wrong dat v love dis show sooo... Much.

Starplus has patronised saas bahu most of the time out of compulsions. But they tried to be different with SGP.

Mumbai track was needed to show what living in a nuclear family did to Ishan and Suhana. While Ishan adjusted, suhana was cribbing most of the time and I enjoyed the kaamwali bai track as a mumbaikar.And Sona's agnisakshi track was unnecessary and they could have shown a happily married Sona and how she helps Suhana to adjust to mumbai and its ways.

I watched SGP from the beginning as a silent member for a long time and then jumped into the forum.

I was surprised when some consistently showed anti suhana feelings and tried their best to support disha and rano. And they attacked even badimaa who always had a soft corner for suhana.

And they had such clout, they will make fun of posts and post makers instead of simply opposing and giving their point of view in a normal way.

About the new show that replaced. I expected something better from a Hatsoff House and I am disappointed. I think they were in a hurry and thus they could not come up with something better.
Meanwhile rival channels are coming up with different concepts.

Starplus might be surviving on saas bahu and its different variations, but they give something different like SGP, Maryada and now Satyamev Jayate.

While the other shows have started to have mainly rajasthani for serious themes and gujarati for funny soaps, SGP showed typical delhi people with their own set of idisyncracies which was a refreshing change. Laidback, fun loving and also big hearted. And without pallus.

And Suhana is as unique. She is delightfully dumb, over the top,short tempered, loved fun, full of love for others and quite forgiving and never mean.
I loved Inder Ilesh antics and their pranks contributed a lot.

I am glad that badimaa was consistent throughout without changing colors just like the elderly couple. And also Radha bua.

Hatsoff to SGP. Pun intended. No offence.

It's time for a comeback!!

Regarding the bold, I have only one thing to say. For example, I have a favorite restaurant where I have been eating with friends and families for YEARS. I have way too many memories at that place, therefore, it means a lot to me. However, the last few months, the food quality is rapidly decreasing. Even though the place and the people who work there mean so much to me, I complain that the food is bad. Yes, it is true that I still go there in the hope that things will change, but that doesn't mean that I stop criticizing something for being mediocre, SPECIALLY, when it can deliver so much more.

Personally, I think if there is a consistent downfall in something, then it is because of lack of interest, willingness or creativity. And if any one of this is lacking, it makes no sense to me why I should be in blind LOOWE with the show.

I would like to clear something here. The "true fans" of the show have NEVER EVER used bad words for anything. The humour here is mostly "tongue in cheek" which is why I can see why it can be offensive to people who aren't exactly familiar to the people on the forum. But I can promise you, it was all in good humour.

Completely agree. SGP was meant to different from the saas bahu sagas and was successful in being different almost the very end.

@Bold Completely agree. :)

@Bold As I said previously, most of the people here are pretty vocal and straight forward about what they think. If they like it, they do. If they hate it, they do. And I do not see any reason why one should NOT find faults in characters, characterizations and other technicalities. A forum is meant NOT for praising but for DISCUSSING the various aspects of the show. However, I understand your point about us being too critical about the show and I can see why you have arrived at the judgement you did. All I would say is that we never intended to over shadow all the good points in the show and I think we did try to tell people that we aren't trolls and that we actually care for the show, but I guess we weren't vocal enough about that.

@Pink
Even I think that Badimaa made a few decisions that weren't fair to the rest of the family. And I think that was why Badimaa was picked upon. And again, I would say, the "critics" don't care about who loves Suhana, who hates Suhana. They see the show as a WHOLE package, and based on interactions between PEOPLE and not just the LEADS. Heck, Every one on the show was picked upon for something or the other. Dada - Dadi for being immature, Rano for being a cry baby and for her impulsive decisions, Alok for not really listening to Rano, Inder and Ilesh for getting carried away in the name of KAMAIDY (Sheema Di, you see what I did here?😉 ), etc.

Umm.. I guess that's all I have to say.
(Please refer to me as MT from now. Thanks.)
