SP shows doing better now ... taking it to top spot. 

Sony doing well with KBC and Indian Idol. Sony still has the most watchable shows on air ... wish they would get better ratings. Am planning to check out Patiala Babes ... looks interesting. 

Silsila out of top 20, and with time slot shifted to 11 pm, doubt it will come back in. Bepanaah is at 20 ... hanging in there! KKBs seem to be ruling the charts ... 3 KKBs in the top 5! :) KZK2 enters at 10th spot ... dunno whether that is good or bad! After all the hype, and being prime time, it's a little surprising ... but may pick up. Or may not ... Erica is still quite bad. I watched the first ten minutes of the original KZK just for fun ... Sweta Tiwari is a really good actress ... never really watched her in anything before, except sporadically in Parvarish, where I liked her. 

And SP Dandiya Nights is fun to watch for Sanaya alone ... most of the acts are pretty yawnworthy ... thank heavens for record facility and fast forward!!! San started off a little stiff, but has warmed up and is doing well. Jai of course is a pro at hosting. 

Am still watching Main Maayke Chali Jaaungi ... yesterday felt like banging my head! Seriously??!!! What mother would call her newly married daughter on her wedding night ... AND keep her chatting with the entire family for what looked like an hour or two ... till her much in love husband fell asleep? And which girl, pretty much in love with her new husband, would continue talking to her family on her wedding night? Darn ... they just can't keep it realistic!!! 

I did like the breakfast scene when Jaya's MIL tells her its ok to be in her night clothes, and so does Dadaji ... and Jaya goes and quickly changes her clothes anyway ... 

But why couldn't she admit she doesn't know how to cook and needs help? In these days of Google and youtube, not so difficult to find a recipe and follow it. Chhanchhan did it ... why couldn't Jaya?
