Do you remember watching some of the episodes in "Doordarshan era" before this "cable era" took over? Those were they days where people used to get some real content. I still remember the episodes of "Malgudi days", "THE HERO", "A HORSE AND TWO GOATS", "THE HOARD", "SWAMI AND HIS FRIENDS", etc. Not to forget some of the shows they used to put like "Aalif Laila", "Chandrakanta", "Dekh bhai Dekh", etc., even though it used to be silly, but they were truly entertaining. It was a really a pleasure watching these shows. As I mentioned earlier, apart from entertainment, they had some CONTENT in them.
Fast forward 10 years >>>>>>>
Today we see some of the shows like Rakhi 'Silicone' Sawant and her disciples at their best brutish behavior. Channels are loaded with mindless crap, to name a few like : Rakhi ka Swaymvar, Sach Ka Samna, Iss Jungle se Mujhe Bacho, Big Boss, MTV Roadies, Splitsvilla, etc.
Well, till now I had a belief that Humans have brains in their heads. But seriously after watching these shows I'm forced to believe that their brains is situated under the belt, and in case of women, below the neck. People are so despo, trying to prove themselves that they've got big brains. Voila!!! Lets welcome the brainiest people on earth! Gosh!
These are the kinds of shows where you won’t find anything except the bitch fights. The topic everywhere seems to be the same: Who is the biggest bitch of the lot? And every girl tries her level best to prove that she is the one. ‘I’m the biggest bitch,’ yells one, to which the other responds, ‘You could be a bitch, but I’m a bitchy bitch.’ Another girl shouts at the top of her voice, ‘You both could be bitches, but I’m a bitchy whore.’ Another female is hell bent on proving her mettle, and screams, ‘Perhaps you don’t know me. You all could be bitches and whores, but I’m a bitchy whore with a slutty attitude.’ Now beat that. Well, no prizes for guessing. The last one is the winner! She gets the prize from the producers of the show and the TV viewer is mercilessly raped in the head. Do heads swell up after a few weeks? Sorry, guys! I'm not experienced in this stuff. I've always taken care of my ‘izzat’ very well.
I happened to get a mail, which gave me links to the uncensored version of MTV roadies. Now just don't go on searching for it, because it has already been removed. I'll post some of "dialogues" by the participants. I'm writing this uncensored and hope you take it in right way.
Ankita: I’m not a f***ng slut like you, yaar. And I don’t need to sleep my way into the show... Mere baap ki c*nd*m ki dukaan nahin hai. Tere baap ki hogi…samjhi? (to shambhavi)
Shambhavi: F##k off! (Arguing about a previous task where the boys were made to strip if the girls got GK answers wrong)
Its better to stop the conversation here. While this was going on, boys standing beside, were thinking "Who could be my best partner?" "Wow..she bitches damn well man!!" The zeroes of this show were analyzing 'I guess she is the perfect match for me! why? that's because I'm the best dog of the whole lot. Simple!'
If there are any roadies fan reading my blog, who are quite interested to do or watch some REAL stuff and who claim the life is all about 'adventure', let me tell you one incident that happened, I've some news for you! Recently a 19 yr old girl, Krushnaa Patil, from Pune climbed the
Now coming to Big Boss. I just don't understand, why people glue themselves to the television as soon as the clock strikes 9? I'll ask some simple question.. Why do you want to something that's happening in their lives? All you happen to see is some stupid fight for food, groceries, gossips or some or the other crap. All the contestants are forced to play like that, and they are paid for that. After they come out, they don't even see each others face. Its again all about bitching and Emotional Atyachaar. Well let me put it in simple words, they are paid for bitching each other. All the time inside the house, is about attitude adjustment. When Kamal threw bottle on Rohit, all members were pissed off, and reportedly that week had the highest TRP points. What's so great about that? You see cabal in streets, it's so commonly visible. Shilpa Shetty returned from UK, after winning Big Brother and did you see the welcome she got? Man! Had she been to an expedition to mars or something! duh!
Talking about the recent one which just got over last month, Rakhi Sawant's Swaymvar. (Have you ever seen Rakhi without make up? yuck!! you feel like puking on her face.) I think people participated in this show, just to get some fame. I'm sure they would have divorced her after getting some good name in industry. I'm still not able to figure it out! Was she trying to prove that she is a female? And most important of all, Why are you even bothered about her marriage? Is it something which is very important? Media gives a hype as if she has got some Oscars. damn! It was like pain in the a**s, watching all those contestants trying to impress her. I had to tranquilize myself with a tablet of Anacin. Gosh! Was the Great Almighty suffering from some kind of rare disease like Swine flu or Elephantiasis when he created her?!
In 'Iss jungle se mujhe bacho', few people complained that they over expose stuff and show how they bath and all! The producer, Chitrashi, gave a strong statement stating "I don’t understand why people are making a big issue out of it. Any damn channel you see is showing skin show and objectionable content, why target reality shows? What if they are showing people bathing, they are actually living that life. You don’t expect them to wear jeans and pants while taking a bath."
Dudes and Dudettes what's your take on this? huh! Lets say, if you really wanna show how they bath, why don't you record it and post it in youtube? I would be making some good amount of dollars. You'll be named as Chitrashi Hilton! And what's about all about using a beep sound? Do you think people will assume it as "Luck"? Crazy immature bimbo! Grow up!!
In my opinion, 'F**k' has become a synonym for 'Attitude', courtesy no longer considered as good quality, but rather a 'weakness'. TV is no longer considered as a source of news and information, its all bugged up with reality shows. Its all about real fights, real back stabbings, real use of profanity, real bitching, real skin, real vulgarity, and real gratuitous violence. There is an IPC section, where the criminal is put behind the bars for not less than 7 years for raping. Now tell me, is there any Section, which punishes the people who rape the minds of younger generations? You see a small kid and ask him what are your ambitions, the reply would be "I want to become a roadie!", "I want to win sa re ga ma pa little champs", "I want to become like Sharukh Khan"...What the hell? Don't you think that children today are losing their innocence?
I think its time to chew over and to contemplate. I know we cannot stop these shows, but there is something which we can do. Lets just stop encouraging these shows. This type of shows puts a real pressure on younger generations. Perhaps this is the real moment of truth! what say?
P.S: Instead of watching "Sach ka..crap" or "Iss jugle se..blah blah" download all the episodes of Lost, it has adventure, mystery and of course babes. Or watch some of the good American sitcoms like "Big Bang Theory", "Two and half men", "My wife and kids" etc., they are the best entertainers. Or watch Prison break. Its definitely worth it.

Kb here. Dileep you are a mastermind of free thoughts and expressions, you are showing to people that all these celebrity seductions are nothing but garbage. I also tried to realise people through my poker face mail on the group, but people did not respond to it thinking that is a joke or something else. But atleast people respond to you, so continue this endeavour and never ever give up. All the best from KB.

Agree with you that the TV channels are going nuts with "reality" shows...
It's crazy world out there in the idiot box, but hey! i've the remote...
