Television: Shows, Reviews & Trends

Looking for straight talk about TV — not hype, not long essays? This tag collects quick reviews, industry news, and practical guides about the shows you watch and the business behind them. Whether you want to know why a season cost jumped, which series won the most awards, or which popular show feels overrated, you’ll find clear, short pieces here.

What you’ll find under this tag

News: fast updates on premieres, cancellations, or big production moves. Reviews: spoiler-aware takes that help you decide if a show is worth your time. Industry explainers: plain answers to questions like “Do TV shows become more expensive each season?” and “How do awards affect a series?” Opinion and polls: quick reads asking what viewers find boring or overrated.

We focus on TV across platforms — broadcast, cable, and streaming — and cover both Indian and global titles when they matter to viewers here. Expect practical context: if a cast leaves, we explain how that can change the show; if budgets spike, we explain the common reasons (talent raises, visual effects, location costs).
