You Know You're Watching Indian TV When...
the tele-evangelists look like freaky Babas
you're watching a show called the Bollywood Reporter
there's a channel specifically devoted to cricket
there are more singing + dancing extravaganzas than you care to count
the hip-hop artists have names like Sukhbir
you can watch some old guy who looks like Santa belting out exotic devotional songs
this guy - who I'll simply call Mr. Popular - is on every other freaking channel
the men sport mustaches and dress like bad throwbacks from the disco era
you can watch a movie about Shiva or some other Hindu God 24 hours a day
sitcom characters look like this
talkshow hosts dress like this
the men wear turbans
True fact - I got all this by quickly flipping through the channels one evening in Delhi
