being the type of perrson who only everr watches TV late at night and maybe forr the odd prrogrram, i have neverr sat and watched it. a new serries starrts tonight and well i'm thinking of watching it to see what its all about. anyone else planning to watch it orr is it rreally that bad? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's going to be very hard to ignore, but i'm going to try... I try to stay away from people like that in real life so why watch them in my spare time? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

dont watch it. You're basically watching a bunch of people do nothing. Its the lowest form of tv there is. Imagine what creative things you could do in 3 hours instead of watching people sit on a sofa and think about being where you are, not doing what youre doing |

How's Brum on this fine day? |
||||||||
|
|

Humm yeah i don't think i will. so is that rreally all they do, sit. |

Ignore crap like that, don't give in to the hype. I'm glad over here it's been a while since it was on, everyone was psyched about it, but it was worthless. Just some idiots on TV doing absolutely nothing. Anytime a day you should have better things to do than watching crap like that. |

i can't wait. I can't get enough of that program. All these starstruck brain dead fuckers jumping about saying "wicked" and "no way!". It's like watching the monkeys at the zoo. |

Well said. I think their idea of having a "variety of people on the show" is preposterous- only a very narrow group of people are the "type" to agree to go on reality TV shows. You would, for example, be highly unlikely to get a quiet, bookish, private person or someone with a drug addiction on the show. |
||||||||

Yeah, consider it "the sims" without the modicum of interactivity ;) The tasks they have to perform does little to conceal the fact that the majority of the show consists of watching people in a house. You can do that at home with your own family, or just share a house with some friends for a few months. You'll have your own arguments etc. :) |

well its been on for a few weeks here in au i tried to watch it last night, smoked some green and everything. i got bored after 5 minutes (and came back to xltronic :D) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't know anyone as thick as the knobs that take part in the show, though. I like watching thick people. They're funny. |

ID be on big brother :D probably get kicked out in the first few weeks for knocking down tables but yes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hummm well i guess i could take a look and see if the humourr makes it worrth it, but by all accounts its going to borre me shitless and i'll end up back on herre. |

The show is a very good example of media manipulation. In the last series Jade was being depicted as some kind of hate figure and the great unwashed despised her. Fearing she would get lynched when she was evicted, the producers edited the show to make it look like Adele was the real evil bitch. The result - Jade is the nation's fat thick darling and will be appearing in a nightclub near you soon. big brother indeed. |

It depends who is in it really. I dont watch much TV but i generally watch a lot of Big Brother. The NastyNick stuff from BB1 was bloody good imho |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
big brother is so sick! it was interesting to watch but after i tuned in some of the first eps here in germany i really got sick! im not that perverted that i need to watch people getting a nervous breakdown cause they are humans in ihumane situations. being kept like a animal fighting for appreciation. the problem is not being watched but that it is a competition. i could be watched my whole life by millions, but not in a situation that uncomfortable like being held prisoner with so many people. |

It's fucking shit. |

I'll be watching it. |

The first un was interesting, simply because it was the first series and because of "Nasty Nick" manipulating the other contestants. I watched it to see how far he'd get with it, when he was thrown out a lot of the interest I had went. Basically it's not going to be enjoyable unless they stick a total psychopath in there. |

"Basically it's not going to be enjoyable unless they stick a total psychopath in there." Or people whose fundamental beliefs mean they'd hate each. I want them to put in: a member of the catholic clergy, a pornstar, a communist, a militant muslim, a paranoid schizophrenic (without their medication), a martial artist, your typical duke nukem style male chauvanist, a CEO of a multinational company a pseudo-intellectual poser, a militant feminist and an elderly man in a wheelchair. That would be a "good range of people" and make for spectacular television. |

I admit, I've watched all the North American Big Brothers, rarely missed an important episode. Oh Lord, I need help. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
They could just put me in...I am all those plus more at different stages of the day |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so what do you see, do they have to face seeing themselves shit on TV when they get out? i mean thats just fucked. |
||||||||
|

yay! it's all the Dutchies' fault! we did this to you! we will rule the Earth! |

Big Brother is one of those shows that brings out the whiners and TV snobs. I'll be watching it tonight, sure I could be doing something far more productive with my time like raising money to feed starving African orphans or something, but fuck it, I've been working hard all week and what some mindless entertainment. It's easy to dismiss the show as 'nothing', but it's incorrect to do so. I find it interesting to see how ordinary cope with being in an extraordinary environment and to watch the whole group interaction thing. The fascination of a snake pit... |

BB is the stupidest idea ever. Putting people in such an unnatural situation, so they can scheme and plot against each other, what sick minded individual thought that up? |

E4 showed all the videos the applicants sent in from last year. Very funny. All exactly the same, 'im a bit quirky, a bit mad, a great laugh, this'll be a chance of a lifetime' sigh. Loserville |

oh yeah! that bird is really fit! |

i did watch it... and therre is this HOT lass in therre. o yes. also some people i know arre going to be arrses. i don't think i'll watch it again. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

oh go on |

I might watch it but not religiously. Like once every week or somethinf..f.fg. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's rreally fuckin loud, they all yell, and Davina "o not herr again" MaCall keeps pointing out glances and rreactions of theirrs that do not exist. its rreally quite stupid. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hummmmm ooooooooook |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my girlfriend made me watch it. That wont happen again. What a bunch of tossers. As always. There's a fit blonde in there, but she's probably retarded. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the game should be for the viewers. Who can hold back watching it for longest. I hope to win |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i find the interactions fascinating. also the type of people they choose, the lack of awareness of the exploitation, the fact its impossible to tell whether they're being genuine or not. compelling viewing albeit somewhat slightly disturbingly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yet some of them you rreally feel should know betterr, forr example the vicarr type bloke. whats he doing? |
||||||||
|

I've already completely forgotten all of them |

i dont watch tv - so i dont really know what this is im proud to say that i have never watched an entire episode of any american reality tv show or whatever - i assume thats what this is right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
british, but its the same mindless dribble, just in a different language [har]. I'd enjoy an american one cause americans are so dumb |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i guess you could watch it forr a lot of rreasons, but its just to damn loud and annoying to put up with. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
davina mccall does tend to appeal to the lowest common denominator. admittedly thats a low point. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its unfortunate that so many people dismiss this at the throw of a hat. i like to get as much out of everything as is possible. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
exactly earthleakage, so why waste time watching big brother when you can go outside, look at the sky, write music, read books, ... post ... messages ... doh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love the show |
