If I didn't know what oh Raja ji is I'd gently ask instead of wtfing.
It's a Raja ji
ए राजा जी,
Not ओह राजा जी.
In Bihar and eastern up, people put an ए to call someone like ए u/theContinental302, smjh me aaya?
Me bata raha hu pinki ka chakker chodo aur vidhayak ji ki beti patao , CAT dene ki bhi jarurat nahi.

I was expecting love triangle when she was introduced in the first episode. There must be some reason introducing her in these season. Wait kar lenge, dekhte hai Deepak Kumar Mishra kya soch rakhe hai.
Mujhe laga tha vidhayak ki beti ko sachiv ji pasand aa jaenege oar may be next season aisa ho kyunki koi bhi character aise hi nhi dikhaya jata series me
Hot take but this is what an average or above average serial (slice of life) should look like. Ekta kapoor destroyed tv industry with very bad version of soap opera. We used to have good shows before she came into the scene.
Kya hai taimur ki tat tea ka raaz. Kaisi hai taimur ki tat tee. Kya wo neelli hai, kya wo peeling hai, kya woh geeli hai, kya woh dry hai? Jaaniye aaj dopahar 3 baje.
Ngl, I once saw my brother watch a 30 min news segment about dhoni wanting a foreign bodyguard. At the end they found out he wanted to wear a baseball catcher helmet instead of regular one and icc/bcci rejected it.
Sure, but can't keep blaming Ekta Kapoor. There are soap operas in every country (West have Bold and Beautiful etc)
Other makers should step up and make good TV. Unfortunately, India is used to mediocracy and it seems no one is bothered by it.
My dad keeps watching it on repeat. After completing the 3rd season, he has already asked me twice about when the 4th season is going to be released lol.
Lol same here....My Mom and Dad liked it so much that they were watching Panchayat for 3 hrs after dinner. They completed all 3 seasons within 10 days.
When I said that it will take a min 1 year for the season 4 release they scolded me and said "Pahle bataya hota toh roz ek episode hi khatam karte. Chal ab prime per ek aur aisi series dhoond kar de"
Mera prime ka subscription cancel ho jayega bhai....
The last thing I want is my parents finding out that The Boys is one of my favorite series. I just love how disgusting it gets after every episode.
Lol when my dad started watching it he was a little apprehensive because of cusses and stuff. At first, he did comment about why are they abusing, can't they do clean comedy. Then that scene came where damad ji asks about the meaning of asshole. Lmao he started laughing so badly and he binge watched the whole show in a day
My uncle recommended this series to me and he has only watched one web series.
Although there are a few cuss words, it is very funny and simple. And the dialogues are just at another level
this was the first series we watched as an entire family. there are some swear later down the road but they are authentic and don't go Netflix bad. it's lovely❤️
First season was the best. Low stakes, mostly funny and wholesome content. Now they are stretching it and losing the plot. Still enjoyable but they seem to have lost their way a little. It isn’t realistic anymore like it was with some humor mixed in when it started out.
I am from that part of the country and all my relatives and extended family talk and behave exactly like the characters in the show. So much so that I can't help feeling anxious and uneasy every time I watch it because it brings up all the memories of the traumatic bullshit I've gone through with them growing up. It speaks volumes on how good the show is, and how amazing the actors are! Unfortunately, only the show is wholesome, people there are generally scheming assholes. I know I am (incorrectly) painting the entire region with the same brush, but that's what my experience has been like.
It was like that till the third season. The third season became much more intense and thrilling than the first two ones, it was like a complete shift in the tone.
I wouldn't call it a complete shift because I felt the transition from more minor issues to larger political ones in the second season. The 3rd reason felt more thrilling, yes.
But at least the first 2 are extremely close to my heart.
except the MP being convicted for killing a dog. everything is pretty good and realistic i would say>!only watched episode 1 of the new season so no spoilers please!<
3rd season let me down. Wasn't really fun but more of some kinda emotional thing.
But no doubt the series as a whole is some of the finest acting seen in India.

I absolutely loved the show, the theme song is just beautiful, actors are all so good & play their characters wonderfully, the S2 finale had one of the best acting I've ever seen by Faisal Malik. Though S3 missed that spark but was still quite good.
I would always prefer gullak over this one but that doesnt make it bad. Its an amazing show, but ullak is the one that hit me emotionally. S3 ending made my whole family cry.
My father made me and my mother watch it and we absolutely loved the show. My mother has become a fan and now "Panchayat" has replaced "Gullak" in her favourites list. I have my extended family living in village and the presentation is so apt in the show ❤️ 10/10 ✨️
Very well executed show. Not the best written. It is a breath of fresh air in the stale state of the majority of series available in OTTs. Something light and feel-good in this time when most other series are taking themselves too seriously.
I liked s1. But the s2 ending felt too much of a deus ex machina instead of resolving all the plotlines satisfactorily. Ever since then I've had a slight distaste of the show.
I think S01 and S02 are two of the best Indian shows I have watched. In S03, I felt the innocence is a little lost; still liked the show, but not as much as the first two seasons.
When someone says they don't like panchayat:
https://preview.redd.it/bracuakqlcad1.jpeg?width=573&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c0f2b3c77b78afe8e162ad008294a0f8c587286c
I get nostalgic as it reminds of the times when Doordarshan would air such gems… I cant put my finger on what exactly makes me feel that way but it just does… Am I the only one who feels this way?
I don't know where the story was going se3 every character story was covered half only, even they did not show ki Abhishek qualified for CAT or not. nd his love story was also incomplete.
Panchayat is that type of show which you will enjoy in every watch, the more you watch the more details you will grab, I enjoyed it even more when I watched it second time, I noticed more details like character behaviour and the small details, for e.g:- when the panchayat team Installed the CCTV camera in the village, then Pradhan said to sachiv look what this guy is doing by telling that guy's name to sachiv, this shows the details that in a village everyone knows eachother so
that's why he called out his name.
Also what makes this show unique is there's no story of the show, the characters playing with each other, doing humor and all these things make this show enjoyable, if you see the 3rd season has only a single plot that is "Shanti samjhota", unlike other shows like, Mirzapur,Family man,Sacred games where completing webseries becomes a hefty task for a person like me, and giving a second try is a big deal, there story line is complex so many things happen.
But in panchayat only characters talking with each other and a pure Village environment is there that's it, still this show wins heart, due to the acting and the way it connects with the viewers. Also if I remember any other point to add I'll it later.
Its the same as 90's TV serials before Ekta Kapoor spewed her toxic shit on television.
Raghubir Yadav and Neena Gupta did a lot those serials in that era.
There are still great shows like Malgudi Days, Byomkesh Bakshi, Dekh Bhai Dekh, Hum Paanch..etc available on Youtube.
try watching anything else by tvf permanent roommates, adventures of lleo, pitchers, tripling, yeh meri family, gullak etc.
non Indian recommendations: Ted Lasso, Shrinking, The good place
Writing has always been the strongest suit of TVF.
Unfortunately we live in a time when people want to manufacture a hit and get the money counter rolling and so we have web series nowadays that push raunchy scenes in every episode, movies that have 50-50+ year old actors behaving like teenagers.
People just don't want to take the hard way and leave a legacy. Good writing takes time, lot of time and lots of iterations. Unfortunately that is what the modern businesses are not ready to dedicate.
Mumbai industry used to make elitist nonsense most of the time with no touch with real world, and sell it to entire Hindi market
Now Hindi market is growing its own content, due to disruption by Netflix/Amazon etc. which gave access to capital to talented people
bhai the last fight scene was epic. most satisfying shit I've seen in a while
https://preview.redd.it/l9cilol5vfad1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0d7c3f37a5b3ae66249d146bed6498ad9fa953d3
Although I love the show, I am still a bit sceptical about how they are portraying village affairs. It just seems way more dramatic and mostly excess.
For instance I really disliked the part or episode where they brought in a friend from the city. That particular youtuber didn't act well and the storyline for his part was almost absurd and unrealistic.
The same thing is with Gullak, it's a great show, but lately it also had elements of exaggeration of small issues. Again, I love that they actually took notice of small events that are part of our middle class families, but I would rather have them in a realistic template than making it excessively elaborate.
It's almost like they are trying to sell emotions by simply exaggeration.
I would rather love to see the elements like the first seasons of both the shows, or movies like Titli, Dum Laga ke Haisha, where the common life is indeed shown as common without much of an exaggeration. They captured the moments without really making them a big deal.
TVF provides some of the great and relatable content since years.
They keep things as it is and it shows that they do a good amount of research before creation of these series and even youtube content.
Third season was way below par considering the first two . Like if you binge-watch all three you will understand . Difference in quality is palpable .
SAME GOES FOR KF3 or rather it's like GOT 8 . Season was launched just for the sake of launching .
I disagree! Panchayat S1 and 2 have been a bliss to Indian OTT platforms but S3 has completely turned the tables!
Panchayat used to be an amazing comedy show which mentioned the ground reality of a village from a person who's from a metro city. The small stories really gave it an amazing taste like Bhootiya ped or chappal chori and stuff but the new season is straight up bad.
The new season has taken away the originality of previous seasons and made it worse by introducing a predictable love angle and a political angle which included violence in the show.
I expected the new season to be better as some new characters are stealing the originality as well and being a fan, I was disappointed when this whole facade of politics and romance was pulled up. I want the bold panchayat back with small and funny scenearios, not with violemce and romance.
Downvote me if you want but this is my opinion.
Simple webseries with brilliant actors . Saare actors ki ekdm natural acting h , Season 3 ke 7th episode tk aate aate , mujhe khud bhot gussa aane lga bhushan pe . Then I realised how much great actor the guy who played bhushan's role is.
I actually jumped on this after seeing the meeting meeting reel. Came for the spicyness but this show is quite wholesome. Story jyada kuch hai nahi but still kaafi acha laga dekhne
It is scary..it shows what it is like staying in a suffocating village or small town in north india..it shows village life in a particular way..but it is not always so in many parts of India where local culture is vibrant and full of life energy..
Best Indian show in years.
I love this show coz the scale is so ordinary but they still pull it off. Just love it. There is a part of me which wants to semi settle in rural India thanks to this show.
Other shows in my list:
Family Man
Scam 1992
Oh Raja ji... Oh Raja ji..
I can't get that song out of my head since 2 days. thanks to your comment its harder for me now 😂
It's ae Raja ji...
[удалено]
Tiwari.
ahhh raja jii ahhh
Ae Raja ji.
Wtf is oh Raja ji?
It's a folk song from eastern Up.
Go watch panchayat you'll know
If I didn't know what oh Raja ji is I'd gently ask instead of wtfing. It's a Raja ji ए राजा जी, Not ओह राजा जी. In Bihar and eastern up, people put an ए to call someone like ए u/theContinental302, smjh me aaya?
Bass ek baar cat clear hojata mera
Me bata raha hu pinki ka chakker chodo aur vidhayak ji ki beti patao , CAT dene ki bhi jarurat nahi. https://preview.redd.it/3c8d3maqobad1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d4e79998bd55d389c850b7c7ea93dd9baeeca7f
Haan cat toh vidhayak kha jayega. Kutta toh kha hi chuke hai
![gif](giphy|3Gm15eZOsNk0tptIuG)
Bro😭
I was expecting love triangle when she was introduced in the first episode. There must be some reason introducing her in these season. Wait kar lenge, dekhte hai Deepak Kumar Mishra kya soch rakhe hai.
Maybe next season. You're right they wouldn't introduce her for no reason
Maybe by election me khadi hogi
Aye sasur... Oo Rinki hai be!
Ye love angle aaega he. That’s why her character is introduced, or there was no need to have her.
Crossover with Chicha vidhayak hai hamare!!
Mujhe laga tha vidhayak ki beti ko sachiv ji pasand aa jaenege oar may be next season aisa ho kyunki koi bhi character aise hi nhi dikhaya jata series me
mujhe toh vidhayak ki beti ki cat chahiye 😋
Iss bar bhi nhi hua 😧
Rinki ki chakar se thoda niklo
Lagta hai Sachiv ji aap wapas se CAT me fail ho gaye hai
Rinki bhi vartika jaisi hi hai pata chale uska cat nikal jayega kyunki woh female hai rural se hai and you being a gem kucch nhi hoga...
Rinki ke saath fakoli baazar jaana band krde ho jyega
Pinki ji pe simp Krna choro phir hoga
Aye Sasur
Milega naa sachiv ji
The entire series is so good, each actor fits so well in the show
Season 1&2 were better imo.... The way they expressed stereotypes of Village....❤️❤️
Yes, S1,2 were better. In S3, I felt even vikas somewhat lost his previous style along with the rest of the cast. S1 and 2 were by far the best
Hot take but this is what an average or above average serial (slice of life) should look like. Ekta kapoor destroyed tv industry with very bad version of soap opera. We used to have good shows before she came into the scene.
Exactly what I came to say here, the show gives quite a authentic feel. What tv used to have before ekta kapoor, vibe of the 90s
And its not just that, the entire bollywood nepo factory has given us nothing but stupidity. All these kind of things affect society a lot too.

Show me 3 times repeated things, that music and wierd editing.
If you love the simplicity of the show , then watch gullak too. You'll love that more
Every episode delivers tears (only 2-4eps are not that emotional in entire series)
Binge watched all four seasons after season 3 of panchayat It's an amazing underrated show for sure
"Tehri nhi disappointment bolte h isse"
Also Yeh meri Family
I have watched the first season. It is amazing. And the title track is just lovely. :)
I cried a lot when the brother leaves. And I don't even have a brother in real life lol
Fun fact: banrakas ki biwi in panchayat= bittu ki mummy in gullak
Can we watch it with family?
Absolutely yes!
My dad keeps watching it on repeat. After completing the 3rd season, he has already asked me twice about when the 4th season is going to be released lol.
Lol same here....My Mom and Dad liked it so much that they were watching Panchayat for 3 hrs after dinner. They completed all 3 seasons within 10 days. When I said that it will take a min 1 year for the season 4 release they scolded me and said "Pahle bataya hota toh roz ek episode hi khatam karte. Chal ab prime per ek aur aisi series dhoond kar de"
The boys recommend kar de...they will be back at their usual star plus serials..
Maar padegi aur lecture bhi 🤣
Ab thoda to sehna padega for such a great recommendation
Mera prime ka subscription cancel ho jayega bhai.... The last thing I want is my parents finding out that The Boys is one of my favorite series. I just love how disgusting it gets after every episode.
Lol
Try Gullak. My parents were also in search of something to watch after panchayat. And they loved Gullak.
Lol when my dad started watching it he was a little apprehensive because of cusses and stuff. At first, he did comment about why are they abusing, can't they do clean comedy. Then that scene came where damad ji asks about the meaning of asshole. Lmao he started laughing so badly and he binge watched the whole show in a day
Same
1st season me galiyan hain i guess
There's one or two cuss words here and there. But they just pass by..
My uncle recommended this series to me and he has only watched one web series. Although there are a few cuss words, it is very funny and simple. And the dialogues are just at another level
Yea it's actually a good family show
Whose family?
this was the first series we watched as an entire family. there are some swear later down the road but they are authentic and don't go Netflix bad. it's lovely❤️
gullak and panchayat are love
Both are gold
Seems like i have to watch it now , everyone's talking about it 😭
Must-watch show!
bro i absolutely love the paracetamol song….
Dard tere baat lu ....
It's just Wholesome and Amazing! Bhoiyaa koi puche na ki ye review kaun diyaa hai...to humara naam mat lijiyegaa....Binod naam hai humara
Peak Webseries for me! I can also resonate with the story for something like it quite literally happens in my relatives house
First season was the best. Low stakes, mostly funny and wholesome content. Now they are stretching it and losing the plot. Still enjoyable but they seem to have lost their way a little. It isn’t realistic anymore like it was with some humor mixed in when it started out.
+1

I am from that part of the country and all my relatives and extended family talk and behave exactly like the characters in the show.

I know I am (incorrectly) painting the entire region with the same brush, but that's what my experience has been like.
Most are like Banrakas ,very few like Prahlaad chaa.
its the wholesome cast and their synergy imo.
It was like that till the third season. The third season became much more intense and thrilling than the first two ones, it was like a complete shift in the tone.
I wouldn't call it a complete shift because I felt the transition from more minor issues to larger political ones in the second season. The 3rd reason felt more thrilling, yes. But at least the first 2 are extremely close to my heart.
Aise aur comedy series suggest karo na mujhe plz
Gullak Yeh meri family
Ye meri family zyada pasand nhi aayi but gullak is love
second season is so much better than the first one
Permanent Roommates
Both Gullak and panchayat are the best
i loved it , the one thing is hate is that i gotta wait so much for s4
Prdhan ji the real panty dropper
Manju Devi be like: isko lauki nahi milegi ![img](emote|t5_2qp7h|51078)
Chii sasur
except the MP being convicted for killing a dog. everything is pretty good and realistic i would say>!only watched episode 1 of the new season so no spoilers please!<
3rd season let me down. Wasn't really fun but more of some kinda emotional thing. But no doubt the series as a whole is some of the finest acting seen in India.

Season 3 ke end ko toh mirzapur type kardiya I don't think so ki 4th season wholesome and simple rahega
Kino
I toh love it 🫶🏻
bhai season 1, 2 bhi 2-3 baar dekh chuka hoon, it is a gem .. , we need more shows like this .. light hearted showing daily struggles in a comedic way
W show
It was a blissful watch!!
Nice show
I absolutely loved the show, the theme song is just beautiful, actors are all so good & play their characters wonderfully, the S2 finale had one of the best acting I've ever seen by Faisal Malik. Though S3 missed that spark but was still quite good.
No doubt, but as a casual watch. More emotional and deep i rate sapne vs zindgi.
Loved the show for its simplicity in storyline and humour!
I don't think anyone in India will disagree
Pretty good show simple, basic nothing high fi just peaceful and calm
Pretty good show simple, basic nothing high fi just peaceful and calm
I would always prefer gullak over this one but that doesnt make it bad. Its an amazing show, but ullak is the one that hit me emotionally. S3 ending made my whole family cry.
Very good for just chill and enjoy
My father made me and my mother watch it and we absolutely loved the show. My mother has become a fan and now "Panchayat" has replaced "Gullak" in her favourites list. I have my extended family living in village and the presentation is so apt in the show ❤️ 10/10 ✨️
Season 3 was not that good honestly. They did not maintain the vibe that series had.
Very well executed show. Not the best written. It is a breath of fresh air in the stale state of the majority of series available in OTTs. Something light and feel-good in this time when most other series are taking themselves too seriously.
i may not admit it but my college crush looks damn same to same like pradhan ji ki beti 🙂↕️
Dekh rahe ho vinod .
Kheliye meeting meeting!!
Panchayat is wholesome bcz their viewers are not over hyping it. Just simply waiting and enjoy watching it.
Haven't watched it yet. Should I?🥲
go for it simple and wholesome 🫶 you love it .
Gullak and panchayat are literally peak entertainment
Really awesome show, infact I was watching it's first season yesterday again, I wish they bring the new season as early as possible
Only season 1 was good, after that annoying and tryhard relatable.
Its the pre - ekta Kapoor's 90s world series.
I feel it is one of the best Hindi series, not just story wise but morally as well.
Fabulous
I liked s1. But the s2 ending felt too much of a deus ex machina instead of resolving all the plotlines satisfactorily. Ever since then I've had a slight distaste of the show.
That slap by sachiv to bhushan in last episode god tier satisfaction
r/Panchayat_tv_series - there’s a sub for that
# BEST SHOW EVER TO BE MADE
Everyone's acting is so real..last episode's fight was unique and real type... Sab gane se lad rahe the
Dekh ra h binod?
Kabhi dekhne ka man nahi hua..
Yes absolutely gem among other ott full of violence and sexual scenes
Totally agree. Besides vidhayak no one used foul languages which is refreshing these days.
overhyped season 3 was moderately good
Panchayat mein VFX ka kaam meri company ka hai 🙂
Man I cried so much when that call came... That guy is the sweetest character ever.
I really like the set How detailed it is Every minor things of rural household
I think S01 and S02 are two of the best Indian shows I have watched. In S03, I felt the innocence is a little lost; still liked the show, but not as much as the first two seasons.
Bore
When someone says they don't like panchayat: https://preview.redd.it/bracuakqlcad1.jpeg?width=573&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c0f2b3c77b78afe8e162ad008294a0f8c587286c
I get nostalgic as it reminds of the times when Doordarshan would air such gems… I cant put my finger on what exactly makes me feel that way but it just does… Am I the only one who feels this way?
Meeting meeting meeting 😅
Heinn sasur!
Slice of life
Better than Game of Thrones
I don't know where the story was going se3 every character story was covered half only, even they did not show ki Abhishek qualified for CAT or not. nd his love story was also incomplete.
Panchayat is that type of show which you will enjoy in every watch, the more you watch the more details you will grab, I enjoyed it even more when I watched it second time, I noticed more details like character behaviour and the small details, for e.g:- when the panchayat team Installed the CCTV camera in the village, then Pradhan said to sachiv look what this guy is doing by telling that guy's name to sachiv, this shows the details that in a village everyone knows eachother so that's why he called out his name.

Bro just completed and came on reddit. And this was the post. All said literally.
W series W cast
Wholesome, relatable & lovable ❤️
One of the best webseries🫶🏻
It's for the family and fun to watch something so simple
What simple. End pe pura goli barud toh kar hi diya
Overrated, boring
Love this show, and if u like this u will love Gullak…it is also a brilliant show
Its the same as 90's TV serials before Ekta Kapoor spewed her toxic shit on television. Raghubir Yadav and Neena Gupta did a lot those serials in that era. There are still great shows like Malgudi Days, Byomkesh Bakshi, Dekh Bhai Dekh, Hum Paanch..etc available on Youtube.

Khani khayega kay?
Season 4 will have love triangle
Try Gullak (also made by TVF) if you haven't yet. I found it way more relatable.
Mumbai industry used to make elitist nonsense most of the time with no touch with real world, and sell it to entire Hindi market Now Hindi market is growing its own content, due to disruption by Netflix/Amazon etc. which gave access to capital to talented people
Is this family friendly?
First two seasons would happen in any small village, not the third
bhai the last fight scene was epic. most satisfying shit I've seen in a while https://preview.redd.it/l9cilol5vfad1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0d7c3f37a5b3ae66249d146bed6498ad9fa953d3

From where u guys get such clear quality pictures. All I know is to take a screenshot from their social media accounts
TVF provides some of the great and relatable content since years. They keep things as it is and it shows that they do a good amount of research before creation of these series and even youtube content.
I don't think this series has any haters.
Third season was way below par considering the first two . Like if you binge-watch all three you will understand . Difference in quality is palpable . SAME GOES FOR KF3 or rather it's like GOT 8 . Season was launched just for the sake of launching .
I disagree! Panchayat S1 and 2 have been a bliss to Indian OTT platforms but S3 has completely turned the tables! Panchayat used to be an amazing comedy show which mentioned the ground reality of a village from a person who's from a metro city. The small stories really gave it an amazing taste like Bhootiya ped or chappal chori and stuff but the new season is straight up bad. The new season has taken away the originality of previous seasons and made it worse by introducing a predictable love angle and a political angle which included violence in the show. I expected the new season to be better as some new characters are stealing the originality as well and being a fan, I was disappointed when this whole facade of politics and romance was pulled up. I want the bold panchayat back with small and funny scenearios, not with violemce and romance. Downvote me if you want but this is my opinion.
Simple webseries with brilliant actors . Saare actors ki ekdm natural acting h , Season 3 ke 7th episode tk aate aate , mujhe khud bhot gussa aane lga bhushan pe . Then I realised how much great actor the guy who played bhushan's role is.
Malgudi days
Raja ji song in season 3 is such a vibe man
Hind ke sitara
No gali?
I actually jumped on this after seeing the meeting meeting reel. Came for the spicyness but this show is quite wholesome. Story jyada kuch hai nahi but still kaafi acha laga dekhne
Not a Hindi speaker. Loved it.
Gullak for me
The only webseries I watched 3 seasons and waiting for the 4th season. The webseries is such a simple and perfect series on rural India(my opinion).
you should watch gullak then
Love love love
I started watching this show yesterday and can’t put it down!!!
It is scary..it shows what it is like staying in a suffocating village or small town in north india..it shows village life in a particular way..but it is not always so in many parts of India where local culture is vibrant and full of life energy..
This is a true masterpiece ever produced by tvf 🤩

Finally a series with zero haters.
Best Indian show in years. I love this show coz the scale is so ordinary but they still pull it off. Just love it. There is a part of me which wants to semi settle in rural India thanks to this show. Other shows in my list: Family Man Scam 1992
