Television shows: What do you watch? - Team-BHP

greatDrive · 30th May 2007, 14:58

Which one do you follow more?
I know most of you prefer watching F1 racing, world Amazing videos or English leauge than these shows, but sometimes you have to watch because your better half is seeing it and when you have just 1 TV at home.

I feel the singers of VOI are good, Better than SA RE GA MA and Idol.
Indian Idol 3 will as usual loose its charm down the line.

What do you all think?

I dont watch much TV ..
Internet is enough of an entertainment tool for me

Only sometimes watch POGO channel, sometimes discovery. Thats it.
What is VOI?

ajitkommini · 30th May 2007, 15:02

Used to watch Sa Re Ga Ma back in the day when Sonu Nigam was the anchor (in his pre-rockstar avataar). Dont watch any of the three any more though. American Idol sometimes. Otherwise my favourite shows are:

1. No Reservations - Anthony Bourdain (some other name now)
2. Those engineering type shows on discovery / NatGeo
3. Monster House
4. Monday Comedies on star world

I also watch POGO, I like Takashi Castle ( sorry if mis spelled, its a Japanees series) most. Javed Jaffery's comic commentry is really funny

DCEite · 30th May 2007, 15:23

I too like Takeshi's castle and Mr.Bean (animated also)

. I was told that Mr. Bean is a professor in real life

, if this is true, than I will say, he is really an amazing actor.

Not sure about the professor bit, but he does have a nice car collection!

Takashi's castle always leaves me in splits of laughter. The commentry by Javed is awesome !! I do love watching Friends, although reruns.

As for these damned reality shows, all are crap. Everyone knows what happened to the last 2 idols who won. What irritates me even more is that even channels like Asianet have started something on similar lines called 'Idea Star Singer'. Needless to say, its crap.

I do not know what happened to them. In fact I don't know who was the second Idiot oops Idol.

sammyboy · 30th May 2007, 15:50

I guess I cant really comment on this ..hardly ever watch anything but AXN,Star world,Discovery,VH1, NG ,HBO n star movies

oh yeah and Takeshi castle with Javed's commentry always has me in splits

greatDrive · 30th May 2007, 15:51

Mods, Can you please correct the spelling of "Indian" in the subject

rjstyles69, thanks for pointing out

planet_rocker · 30th May 2007, 15:58

we have 2 tv sets at home. i love cartoon network (Tom & Jerry, Baby Looney Toons), Takishi's Castle,

but now i dont get to see none of the shows.
reason:
1. Brother's Final Year Exams - he has occupied our room - cant watch

2. Mom doesnt miss the Bong soaps, Hindi soaps, saregamapa, VOI, Indian Idol 3. she keeps on switching channels from 6.30pm till 11.30pm.

normally_crazy · 30th May 2007, 16:16

Anyone tell me on which channel "Shinchen"is telecast ? Saw a couple of episodes and loved it.

I used to love "Khichdi"on Star One or was it Star Plus ?

As for these singing competitions - they are more of a show for the judges than the singers. Squabbling, calling each other names and what not. The only reason I watched the last 2 Indian Idol series was because of Anu Malik

Dippy · 30th May 2007, 16:20

NC

Shinchan is on Hungama TV 10 30 pm everyday and from 1 to 5 pm every Sunday :d

Speaking of Indian Idol i like show just for the different kinds of people you get to see who come for auditions.

Anu Malik is quite funny this time around too.
