Dickhead telly.

I mean what is so interesting about watching a bunch of arseholes in a house eh!

It is the most boring telly ever.

But you have to keep the other arseholes happy somehow.

In defense of Big Brother:

Never watched it before now, but this series is cracking and I'm watching it right this minute. Highly entertaining. So there.

Mark Steel did an hilarious bit with Marx on Big Brother as part of his Lectures.

What? The only level it works on is voyeuristic.

I think its fascination lies in the fact that people are jaded with seeing the Parkinson/Jonathan Ross professional conversationalists. Similarly the endless procession of people who can't perform normal social functions in Springer/Oprah/trisha etc has also begun to pall.

The conversations on Big Brother may be trivial and sometimes stupid, but at least they are genuine conversations. they do not have this heavy subtext - (Springer - what a scuffler, let's laugh at him! Oprah - I feel for you, and you've written a book! Trisha - I can help with advice, but you must help yourself)

Its harmless.

I think Big Brother is fantastic. I enjoy watching it because I like seeing the way different housemates interact with each other, for example the rows between Maxwell and Science before they were both evicted.

You can actually learn a fair bit from watching it from a sociological and psychological point of view, because all of the housemates react to situations in different ways. You can also try to work out each of the housemates' individual game plans.

If you have never watched Big Brother, it is very easy to just dismiss it as completely pointless. I did exactly that during the first two series, but I decied to give it a try for BB3, and I was hooked. It isn't just stupid people who never read that watch it. I have an IQ of 149, I speak 4 languages and I have always got a book close at hand.

You sad people..Have you nothing better to do than encourage those who produce this freak show.

Three homosexuals, and assorted exhibitionists pretending to have sex for the gratification of the great unwashed.

It dosn't matter who wins , all that matters is that the poor fools keep phoning in and the viewing figure keep rising.

Its all hype , all meaningless crap, and another milestone to mark the demise of our society...Ake
