Action awards

Here is your opportunity to turn a hero into a zero. Just by voting for your choice. Yes, one is talking about the ongoing AXN Action Awards.

From as many as six categories, you can choose your best action actor in a lead role, in a negative role, best action sequence, original soundtrack in action films and some more. All you have to do is watch AXN before May 31 to know the details.

But if you are action-oriented, you would already be in the loop.

New Series


Star World has just started a new American comedy-drama, “Psych”. Aired on Monday and Saturday nights, the series looks interesting with its protagonist Shawn Spencer with extra-super observational skills. He calls the cops to give clues about cases that he reads about in the newspapers and thus becomes a police consultant.

The rest is for you to find out.

Summer showdown


CNN-IBN is taking its citizen journalism initiative a step further this May. The channel’s camera will follow one family each from Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai and Kolkata for five weeks wherein they will report on civic problems threatening to become a crisis this summer.

While 2-3 minute stories of power cuts, water shortage, overflowing drains, etc. will be a part of daily news reports, a compiled version will be aired on May 26 for an hour.

Check it out to know whether your inconveniences feature there.

Didi’s comedy


Remember “Didi’s Comedy” on Doordarshan? The super comedy series is back on the telly now.

Jetix has just started airing it from Monday to Friday at 6.p.m.

With the summer holidays now about to begin, it is one good option to keep your evenings busy.
