Big Brother!

  Love it or hate it, Big Brother was a massive part of UK television for 11 years before Endemol (its creators) finally threw in the towel. I have no doubt that those of my followers from the UK will mostly hate it (as will those of you from the US and elsewhere, but this is less relevant to you), and will be angered by the knowledge that Channel 5 have bought the rights to it, and it will be returning with an "All star" celebrity version later this year, and then continuing its old cycle from there on. Read more here.
  Personally, I must say I'm chuffed; Big Brother was poor for a few years but the most recent seasons have been great! Plus, it will be returning on Channel 5 with the same crew, so it should continue its improvement. Though, I must say that I am annoyed with it for returning so soon after the "grand finale", only one year's wait before reviving it is just stupid (and the owner of Channel 5 wanted to do it sooner)! 
  Let me know what you think about the program, its return, whatever you like... I'll read and comment back as standard

  2. I never liked it when good shows/music said they where done with some grand finale then for someone to run out of money then decide to bring it back. Its all about the Cheddar.

  4. The very first time I watched it was interesting because it was new. It got old fast though, especially with all these other "reality" shows

  7. I don't want reality television really. Unless it's a wacky japanese gameshow or something. Other than that, it's cartoons all the way.
