Coming back to television world, I realize something. For me, the corporation that deserves the throne of "King of Media" in Indonesia is Trans Corp. Seriously. They have various kinds of quality TV shows. Many categories, such as cooking & culinary, adventure, quiz, documentary, comedy, and talk show... all are presented well. Most of them are not only entertaining, but also enrich my knowledge.
Their programs have become trend setter for the other TV stations. No wonder though... their breakthrough do amuse audience. They introduce many creative innovation in TV show, from that low-budget-youtube-video-collection to high-effort-prank-show. You must've noticed how their infotainment concept, culinary show, and comedy program is emulated by the other TV stations. They even offer sinetron that's different from the classic (and annoying) mainstream. It's made as close as possible to Korean-Japanese style, you can tell from the cinematography, language use, and costume.
Well, there's only one weakness. I don't like their shows which involve a lot of fake tears, e.g. Termehek-mehek & Jika Aku Menjadi. Errrgghhh, it's clear to see that the storyline has been manipulated.
Here is another reason strengthening their position as "King of Media" for me: they spread their wings to become a giant empire in entertainment industry. They already build Trans Studio, an amazing indoor playground that can be compared to Disneyland. Now, they create mytrans.com where we can watch all of their programs online. Well, congratulation for them...
