    It all depend on the person. Personally for me i find that serials:

    1.Relieve stress/boredom
    2.Stimulate the mind( keep the viewer guessing on whats going to happen next)
    3.Helped me learn tamil
    4.Good eye candy ( some of the actors are hot!! LOL)
    5. Something to watch with my mom
    Kanavu Mattum Enakku Undu
    Kannai Kaana Villaiyae ...Irandhu Poana Kaadhal Kavidhai
    Irangal Koottam Poadudhoa ..Enakkul Irukkum Undhan Idhayam
    Egiri Gudhithu Oadudhoa

    Well, you get to :

    sit and watch how the serial's scriptwriters work for the home viewers as opposed to the big screen.

    good serials keeps the adrenalin flowing as you second guess the flow of the story- line and plot.

    form discussion groups that analyse everything to death, while berating the production team for flaws!!

    marvel at the acting talents of some of the new faces who might have skipped the opportunity of appearing in the big screen. The latter is mostly reserved for the big names anyway. So, where do the lesser mortals get their exposure from if not the idiot box!

    serials as a whole give a wider scope for developing the story-line and plots further, which is rather limited on the big screen.

    yes, one does indeed get to improve the Tamil diction which otherwise, rusts away from under-use as in my case!

    Advantages!!!

    Enjoying in wasting valuable human resources and diverting attention from any real creative work (Good relaxation)

    Making less interaction with society (less fight and more peace!!!)

    Getting lot of matter to discuss on useless and virtual issues (instead of discussing neighbors private life, an escape from very common disease)

    What else…

    My opinion same as r_kk's. Women are losing their exclusive skills in handicraft, imagination & culinary art. Their proud endowment of making the home a warm nest, of making life more beautiful & meaningful is getting lost in trivialities & trifles. The housewife's honour of playing hostess with genial hospitality is tarnished. Apathy for social interaction, lethagy to lend a helping hand around & a lot of other symptoms of a corroding disease do not bode well for our formerly happy households. Stealthy importing of foreign behaviour patterns unsuitable for our traditions & mindsets, propaganda of wayward choices- the list is endless & totally frustrating. MAking people couch potatoes- a significant change of lifestyle- paves way for obesity & many more illnesses. Sound mind in a sound body. All these will surely fall on deaf ears!
    Eager to watch the trends of the world & to nurture in the youth who carry the future world on their shoulders a right sense of values.
