I have watched coronation street since it was in black and white. I use to look forward to watching something that I could relate to
It being a down to earth show. The characters were very well acted and realistic.
Now I still watch it with tongue in cheek as the characters just are not realistic any more. I am on the verge of not wanting to watch it at all as the stories are negative and not realistic in the true sense of the word. Coronation Street is just not enjoyable to watch anymore, I am extremely dissatisfied with the storyline as it’s lost its down to earth feeling and there is no comedy in it anymore.
You need someone else to write the script who can get in touch with real people and down to earth storylines.
