Philippine TV Media is dragging Filipino Lives

[BananaQ]

The TV shows just reflect their target audience, most of which are Class D and E. Many years ago, it used to be only class A, B, and C who have TVs. Most people in those classes already have cable TVs or use the Internet. Thus it really does seem that broadcast TV is becoming more "para masa" with very "masa" appeal.

OT: You may call it Filipino or you may call it Tagalog. Or you might claim that it's actually Taglish. But we all know what the most common language in broadcast TV in the Philippines. What to call it is OT in this thread. While there's a perception that Filipino/Tagalog shows are of inferior quality (which might be true as well, given the low standards of its main target audience), there are also English shows (and in other languages for that matter) which are of no educational value and which are as tasteless. I, myself, don't like Tagalog that much as I had very difficult time reading/understanding Noli or El Fili. But then, to be fair, I remember the few TV shows which were in Bisaya! Perting mas badoy pas nangamatay. Sorry lang gyud, bisdak man sad ko usahay, pero over naman sad to ka way budget ug ka badoy oi.

nindot ni nga topic dah...

dako gyud kaayo ni ug influence ang tv media sa ato labi na sa mga bata. Ako personally nag dako ko nga nag tan-aw ug sineskwela and other similar shows sa una nga naka tabang kaayo sa ako.
Mas nindot gyud unta na mausab ang tema sa atong mga local shows nga mahimong educational nya magpakita sad ug gud moral(dili kanang sige pa sexy). Dako gyud kaayo na ma influence sa mga viewers.

Ang mga shows man gud karon kay puro drama na ang tema kay pag panimalos, pag pangabit, datu-pobre, sugal, ug palami sa imahenasyon sa katawhan. Naa uban mu-ingon na naay choice na dili mu-tanaw pero ang tinuod majority gyud ang gasunod sa tv labi na gyud local tv kay dili affordable ang cable tv. Dako gyud kaayo ikatabang ang tv media unta para sa education so unta naa maka realize ani sa atong mga kadagkuan sa gobyerno.

kung ang internet dili ma control kung unsa na klase sa information ang makuha sa katawhan, at least man lang unta ma control ang tv media nga unta makatabang sa development sa matag Pilipino.

nagkagrabe naman gud ang kahimtang sa ato edukasyon nya since grabe man gyud kaayo maka influence ang tv sa Pilipinas, magamit unta nila sa kaayuhan.
