The life i would love to have!



Well, when i was young.. i mean the kiddo age ;-) , iused to relate to the serials as though they were a reflecting my own life.. As i said, this was when i was a child.. hmm.. anyway, i am certain you would agree when i say .. today there is absolutely no resemblence of the serials to our lives as we know it..its more like an escape from our less-than ordinary lives !

For instance..Friends..I'm sure you all have watched atleast once in your life..Even if any of the six are jobless or even in a job with a meagre salary.. they seem to don the best attire.Their clothes..shoes..make up.. hair.. everythin seems so impeccable..as though they are standing for the Miss World pageant
All they do is hang out at the Central Perk's coffee shop..which, appalingly , seems to be free for the 6 all the time..How they get any work done is miraculous.
Anyway, this aint the only show.. Ever seen the OC ? Yes yes tha same one starring the hot Marissa Cooper..and of course the other chicks in the serial.What i am baffled about id that the Cohen & Cooper siblings never seem to tax themselves with studies.. yet manage to get into some of the best Universities..Ah.. how i wish that happenedin my life!
Sex and the City really puts me in awe.The men and the women all seem to have perfect looks.Wake up in bedone morning (next to some random guy u'd hooked up withthe previous night) with the drapes covered so that notan extra inch is visible..snogging goes on even without brushing... eoww!
I just wonder, these stereotype serials concentrate on so much unwanted & unnecessary stuff..and yes, an unbelievable story outline.
Most of you wouldnt agree with me and say we are only appreciate the hard work they have put in to make serial ..blah blah
But,wouldnt we appreciate it more if it were more realistic?
Ohh by the way, i do watch all these soaps pretty intently..whenever i get the time to.. but continue critising them ;-)
c ya..
