Who is the Winner?
I have seen this happening in most of the houses when I visit my cousins place for holidays or my friends place. The time is 7:55 PM. The head of the Family is ready to watch the Sun TV news at 8:00 PM and switches on the TV. Soon after the TV is on the daughter remembers that SCV channel has a programme that plays latest movie songs at 8:oo PM and wants to watch that. So she gathers her sweetest/cutest voice and asks her Dad "Please pa, I want to see this program, you can change it after that". Dad says,"I just came back from office, I haven't seen TV since morning, I just want to watch the news, you can change channels after the news". Then comes the Lady of the house, " Its 8:00 clk, switch to Raj Tv, I'd like to know whats happening in Geethanjali, Geetha's child was kidnapped yesterday" and so comes the demand to watch a Mega Serial, which has stupid suspense for no reason almost every day. Then comes the son of the house, who wants to watch some day-nite Match, "Pa match is going to end, you have already read the news in the morning paper, what more do you need."After all the arguments, "Who is the Winner"? Is it the person who has the remote?- The answer could be - Mostly the head of the family. But just because he has the remote and has made his choice to watch the news channel, does not mean that he can watch the programme peacefully. The answer is - A BIG NO. There will be lots of objections and protests raised against him until the channel is changed. The daughter will keep a long face, the son will be shouting and mom will point out how she has been doing all the work for the family getting up at 5AM and not able to watch even one TV series of her choice.
Once upon a time, I have also been one among those, fighting for remote, keeping long faces and fighting with my dad and brother to change the channel. My Dad used to accede to our request eventually by switching after the headlines got over, my mom updated her Mega series knowledge by just seeing one scene in the middle. Finally it boiled down to a fight between me and my brother. A fight that would never end. Those were the days. However, now am sitting here in US with a TV, DVD Player,VCR and a Bose Music system. The irony is that all 5 remote controls are with me but I don't even care to switch them on. Are the TV programs really interesting stand-alone? Or is it just the competition to watch something else make one program suddenly appear better over the other?
