| Zoom TV from Times Group - second impressions |
English programmes seem to be sourced from E!, the entertainment channel. Lots of body, booze, glamour and sleaze here. But then that's E!
The E! logo is hidden/ blanked out, but then it appears behind some anchors on a lit wall etc sometimes, so we know its E!
The Hindi portions - very similar to music channels. In fact, I caught the same song on Zoom and MTV at the same time.
A program in which young girls were asked to sing love songs to gain the approval of some guy (a singer?) sucked. Because one girl looked 12-15 years of age, and the guy looked 25-30. The format is not new, I have seen it on old MTV shows, but at least they were all boys and girls - not teens and adults like here.
Disclaimer: Second impressions are only lightly better than first impressions; like tea with sugar is better than tea without. But still not Taj Mahal tea!
