Also, online fans are completely different from regular viewers. It is a very biased segment and is not at all a good sample for the rest of the population. Only a select few end up giving feedback while most don't bother and that ruins shows. Seen it with American and Indian shows. I for one never give feedback because I would rather see exactly what the writers intended.
Fans are not writers thus fulfilling their demands brings down the quality of a show and the result becomes something like an Indian soap opera.
I prefer that dramas are shot before hand and then aired later because the story is kept crisp and clean and is told exactly how the story writer and screen play writer intended it. Unnecessary additions due to feedback ruin good shows. It has happened with previous shows and I still stand by my opinion the KNK would have been a better show had they shot it before airing it.
I agree with what u said but it's NOT applicable in case of KNK
Coz the audience didn't say extend the show
And the show was scheduled for a 40 epi anyways ...it was a lengthy show to begin with
The channel saw how popular the show was getting n decided to extend it by further 10 epis
And this has happened in other super hit shows as well before e.g...pyaare afzal and shikwa ...5 epis extra was added to both ...PA was awesome till the end but the addition dragged shikwa
Sk it has not happened for the first time that show has been extended for popularity
Since knk ink is bi weekly ...they extended it by 10 epis...
It's not as if the audience is making them
If there is any influence on the writing for the audience it's for the good side ...coz people hv shown so much craziness for Mona that the writers made it a point to keep some Mona scenes here n there coz they know it's for them the show got extended
Now that's not a bad thing
Thru fees if we can convey to the makers what we want to see ...whats the harm...we r not ruining the show
And if Indian or western makers change the script a bit for audience demand ...thats also pretty cool coz now a days online viewership is HUGE...even general viwers now watch online ...so can't ignore the online feedbk anymore the way it was 10 yrs bk
And in case of KNK...the writer didn't change anything for audience demand...she gave equal footage to all the kids characters n wrote full fledged tracks for them ...if she was so swayed by feel them she wud hv focused more on Mona instead BUT she did NOT
That itself shows the overall funda of feedbk ruining script doesn't work in case of KNK
And I m glad they shot the new epis later
That way they have a bit more focus to Mona...which if they shot earlier wud hv been even less
So in case of KNK the audience feedbk worked for the betterment of the show ...not ruin it
