Tamil serials today

I am a regular serial buff, in the sense that my hands shiver, my legs wobble and I would likely suffer from mental seizure, if I dont have my daily dose of Tamil serials.
But there is a trend portrayed or rather stereotyped in all serials today which I completely despise.

WOMEN SHOWN AS BAD VILLIES, just to bring out the goodies of the main character.

I dont think there is nothing wrong to have a villian/villi for a series, and portray them with some gundas to do a mean job. For tamil cinema standards, it would be 5 murders, 2 rapes and also some random pyromaniac and theft cases. For a series, which is supposed to be more like the home food as against the hotel food called Cinema, small misdemeanour should suffice.

WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE.

The idiot box is showing some character, an inclination towards the dark side. Today, all series has a bad villi, who goes to any extent to get her things done. Killing has become an easy task, as depicted by the serials. Bribing doctors, engineers, food manufacturers etc, with a typical household situation, does have an everlasting bad effect on the people.
Are people safe anymore?

Previously, say for killing, only gundas were appointed. Nowadays any common man is shown to kill either out of fear for villi or for money. Anything shown time and over again, gets picturised as normal in humans, that is the nature. Else why do you think they are showing commercials over and over. All I presume is that if serials have a similar effect... God knows where this world would head.

UNHEALTHY DEPICTIONS IN SERIALS SHOULD CHANGE FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE.

Why is it the Government has banned showing liquor and cig. advertisements?
If it is for the betterment of the people, then such infectious serials should also be banned, or atleast there should be a censorboard for serials. Or is there?

And my last request is:
IN INDIA WOMEN ARE RESPECTED AS SECOND TO GOD. SHOULD WE STOP DEFAMIN THEM>

the end.
