Small
screen industry has come many a mile from the early Doordarshan days. Any 80’s
kid can still feel fussy while there is a antenna in sight, reminiscent of the
good old days. Sun TV is hugely responsible for the generational shift in small
screen industry especially in South India. Enough said, let’s go straight down
to 5 Best entertainment TV channels in India.

5: Sun TV
Viewed
by large number of families till date and still considered the face of tamil small screen industry but it lost its charm as of late due to the reasons quite obvious to
everyone- Overkill of mega serials. The channel currently hosts nearly 20
mega serials (PHEW!) and a few weeklies. Other than this, Sun TV hosts Game shows, Newscasts, Songs, Trailers, Movies
and film related events.
4: SS Music
SS
music showcases the face of 21st century Indian youth. The shows are
unique to one another its ‘Devil may cry’ attitude could be a vital reason for
its uprise in the past few years. Some of the negatives could be that the VJ’s
are going overboard with their funky nature and end up giggling all the way in English
to an average caller in phone. It looks embarrassing sometimes and funny in a
while.
3: Star Vijay
Best
native tamil channel to say the least, with reality shows, game shows of
different genre as its core, Star Vijay shines like a star of its own. It is
the mother of some highly successful shows like ‘Jodi No.1’, ‘Kalakapovathu
Yaaru’, ‘Super singer’ etc., and it's VJs' are the best in business. Some may argue these shows are a direct import from
their North Indian allies but all in all its an industry first in South India.
It’s
the one and only non-native tamil channel in top 5. But it has a great tamil
feed, which is more than enough for viewers to stop and take note. The genre of infotainment is always a double
edged knife, people may get easily bored of the content if they find its going
too chewy or bland. NGC knows the knack of keeping things simple yet engaging,
resulting in a successful venture. ‘Taboo’ is the perfect example for this
stake and it is certainly not a series to be missed.
Discovery
channel is the first infotainment channel to offer tamil feed and it has
flapped its wings as a native tamil channel in the past few years. It hosts
programs of sheer class and knowledge, which makes a technological marvel be
easily understood by an average bloke. ‘Man vs Wild’ can easily be regarded as
the channel’s star performer and sometimes it looks as if Discovery is going
overboard with survival based series which includes ‘Man vs Wild’ itself, ‘Man
women wild’, ‘Survivor Man’ & ‘Dual Survival’. Discovery Channel holds the
edge in tamil small screen industry by a skin of the teeth margin over NGC.
