@cynthia (readlo) agree to every word buddy.
@gayatri (rainfire) yes. That would have been beautiful.
Please forgive me if I said your names wrong.
Anyway. Yes both of you are spot on. May be my expectations were not very high. I expect a show to cover all those loopholes in 10 years perhaps. But now already whatever they showed is way more in sync with the modern mindset compared to the rest of the shows. For example, I liked Jatila as a villain. She is calm, content, strategically manipulative, an organised planner, has a definite purpose in life, strategic and is really intelligent. I liked how she was never distracted from her purpose even though the lord himself forgot everything going gaga over the wedding. She didn't even make marrying Radha to Ayan a priority. That was always her side business. The sanyas plan was solely ayan's. This is unlike other TV villains. So I have always tried to look at the silver lining without having much expectations. Basically my expectations were way less, I thought it would become unbearable after a couple of months. But instead it was pretty enjoyable----the humour, most of the characterization and more or less 75% of the tracks until identity crisis was good. So I ignored the rest. But now that it had become unbearable, I couldn't stay silent. I just hope to get that 75% back again.
Indian TV has a long way to go to get a positive flawless yet humane figure like Jake Peralta or captain Holt or a negative figure like Walter white or a successful experimentation like the BBC Sherlock or creative liberty leading to a show like 'the good place'. The handmaid's tale is even better than the book. I wish we too will get a show which will be better than a well written book. Fingers crossed. But sadly that day hasn't come yet.
RK has been better than its contemporary shows but lately it has started acting like that. I just want it to get past at and that will be more than enough.
