Appreciation thread for Comedy Central and Vh1 India

[iDJ]

Man, today is the day when it's finally happening. It's was bound to happen anyday. So be it today. I wanna thank Vh1 and Comedy Central to be my gateway of stress relief all these years. Not gonna lie I stopped watching TV couple of years. If it wasn't for these two channels I wouldn't be alive. I know it's a TV channel. Than what's the big deal here? When you are depressed it's comedy shows and music that brings a change to your lifestyle. Vh1 was a gateway for me to western pop culture. I started watching Vh1 since 2013. I pretty much watched everything from Jersey Shore to Catfish. If it wasn't for Vh1. I would never have signed up for Twitter. Fall into love with EDM. Wouldn't be introduced to my idol Taylor Swift. Comedy Central back in 2014 was something else. It catered mostly to younger viewers. I still love the show Awkward. It not only made me feel relatable to Jenna. It also introduced me to new songs. Than you got shows like Outsourced, Citizen Khan, Whose Line Is It Anyway, Brooklyn 99 and the best show of all Friends. My siblings use to watch Friends on Romedy Now. Those were some random episodes. I didn't understand it much until the rerun started on 2016. Impractical Jokers was the show that gave me stress relief when I use to be upset all day long. I use to love the campaigns Comedy Central use to do for festival and awareness. Diwali felt like Diwali and Christmas felt like Christmas when Vh1 and Comedy Central aired their specials and playlist.

I know TV is not relevant these days. Even Comedy Central lost most of it's content. But the team who were running the channel made the best out of limited content they had. I use to love the hilarious disclaimers. One thing I wanna say is Thank You for all the laughs, tears and memories. Now it's Colors Infinity's time to shine. And Ross you cheated man. You were not on a break.

All the gap of comedy Central and vh1 should be filled by colors infinity post these channels shutdown. Don't know will they do are not and if done how efficiently they'll do

 

[tswizzle]

Do they still have licensing for English music videos after vh1 shuts down?

Comedy Central was removed because there's already enough comedy on Indian news channels.
