Well I just got an email from Ebay saying "Taiven, will you marry me?" so things have just about got weird enough that I want to retire for the night. G'night Night Owls!

The thing that gets me about Big Brother is that it's called "Reality TV".

has no one heard of the idea that when you watch something as it knows being watched, to pick up on behavioural patterns etc (the first series was a Social Experiment) you change the nature of their beahviour. Owing to the fact they know they're being watched...

Of course that only applied to the first series of Big Brother.

The rest can only be described as "Farcical TV" rather than "Reality TV"

I know. I have never watched it since an old friend of mine from school was on it (not saying which one), and some of the stuff that went around about her was ridiculous. it always bored the hell out of me before that anyway, was just something to talk about at work but now I don't even want to talk to these people who keep going on about it.

No it really is quite pathetic. It's at it's lowest viewing figures ever as well.

I think that after 7 series the general public has finally woken up to the patheticness of it all

I really hope so... at least it doesnt dominate channel 4 so much anymore.

yeah they've just given it virtually 24 hours broadcasting rights on E4

by **Blumunky** » Jul 26th, '06, 03:04

No change there then...

I really hope they stop it now, the whole things getting more and more ridiculous... Do you think though that the reduced veiwing figures might just be because of the fact that it's not on terrestrial TV so much now?

I like to think not, then hopefully they won't move it back...

I know what you mean. I watched the second series and that was about it. As far as I know it just seems really c*** (not the best) now with all the same stuff. It was only the first 1,2 and maybe 3 BB's that *could* have been great because people inside didn't know what to expect. Now everyone who goes in there knows how to play the game and its just boring

by **Blumunky** » Jul 26th, '06, 03:30

Damn I guess now we're included in people going on about it... :lol:

I'm even getting bored of slating the damned show now, it's time I went to bed.

Goodnight all.
