Mind the Malhotras

Couldn't watch past episode 2. Lacks originality and humour.

Season 1 of Mind the Malhotras is a very good watch, especially for audience in the 30+ age group. It is a light hearted, subtle humour that relies heavily on the performances of lead actors and overall characterisation. Now, a subtle humour is not everyone's cup of tea. Do not expect jokes that are loud or literally in your face. Each episode in Season 1 has a little bit of theme and how the various characters get about that theme. Definitely a good watch.

Season 2 however is completely messed up. It runs into the standard Season 2 greed where the makers try to create a larger canvas, more characters, bigger themes. But the basic essence of the show is lost in the process. A light hearted comedy is not the place to preach people about premarital sex, teenage pregnancy, gay marriages, lesbian relationships and love stories of senior citizens. I am not against these topics but Mind the Malhotras is way too subtle to take up such topics. Also, the first and last episodes of Season 2 are simply unwatchable. I hope the makers of the show do not make these mistakes in Season 3 (whenever that comes). In short, Season 2 is completely and totally avoidable.

I guess the title says it all. Saste claire and Phil Dunphy. EVrything from Body language, to hous esetup , even the way the kids look (I mean seriously atleast some level of originality should be der). It is rightly said "Nakal ke liye bhi akal chahiye" even it is not copied well. Complete disaster , it looks tooo pretentious. Whats the worst part is, situations are also copied, which does not look like Indian problems.

Honestly, it's a pretty good series if you watch it blind-minded. Actually its a family pack entertainment and way way way better than those nonsense daily soaps...I don't why so many people hating it, maybe they're expecting too much from this, i know its not that good but c'mon its not that bad also

Couldn't go beyond 2nd episode. The mother in law and daughter in law talks are lame.
