Celebrity Big Brother started a little while ago. Normally I wouldn't give a crap, but the latest housemate to join was Dirk Benedict, better known as Face from The A-Team.

Awesome.

So, just how sick are you of Big Brother and Celebrity Big Brother?

That shit was dull and perverse 5 years ago.
First 2 seasons of Australian Big Brother were Ok.

I actually quite like normal Big Brother. I always say I'm not going to watch it, then I watch the opener, and then sporadic episodes over the next few weeks until I'm more or less hooked.

Hate Celebrity BB though. Trading Standards needs to have a word over that title...

I watched Big Brother All-Stars, hating myself for every single second I watched, but I was unable to turn away. As a joke, my sister got me a "Chill Town" hat. *Shudders*

I think Serial Murderers Big Brother would be fun. :D

As a Dutch, I offer my apolagies for the invention of the tv programme called 'Big Brother', the creators will be shot when they are found.

Sorry:(

That's not good enough. Force them to watch every episode of every version of this monstrosity. Twice.

Big Brother has lost all interest. It's the worst thing on TV. I watch the last series quite a bit. They kept on having "secret" rooms and constant new housemates. Its so shit now.

Celebrity Big Brother is even worse.

Reality shows are for people so lacking in lives that they must live vicariously through others.

Honestly, spawn some children, that's what you do with them, live out your failed dreams through them.

That's scary.

Maybe I'll move back to China just to avoid the horrid BB plague. But then, they do a horrible dubbing of The Amazing Race and shows it on repeat. *shudders*

There was talk of a New Zealand version but thankfully we didn't and still don't have the resources.

We do have Treasure Island, unfortunatly that obsessed with Celebrities, celebrities that are truly B-Grade at best.

Find stupid, attractive people, lock them in a house and load them up with booze. For when actually trying to think of proper entertainment is just too tough...

As much as I hate it, I need my soul to prevent me from turning into a drooling vegetable. Isn't there a middle ground, something with napalm involved would be nice.

Wouldn't it just be easier to take cameras into bars? I've seen lower budget reality TV than that lately :rolleyes:

I believe the makers of Big Brother considered that television broadcasts of a group of inward looking misfits and desparate attention whores living in blissful ignorance of all the goings on in the outside world would be too often mistaken for standard American domestic news programming.

There's an idea, though I also thought 'Cops' was the ultimate reality show.

And I don't think COPS is that bad either (it's better than Big Brother at least), also if it wasn't for COPS several humourous parodies of it would not have been made.

I'm surprised that channel 10 picked it up. Not sure what ratings it would get here.

actually there is some kind of show on TV here that does exactly that kind of thing. then they interview drunk people, or they challenge drunk people to kiss as many others in 5 minutes. or ask drunk girls to exchange tshirts. you get the idea.
or that is what my friends told me about it :p

The word Celebrity in the title doesn't refer to the contestants.

Big Brother is a travesty against television, and CBB is even worse. I hate both. I shall never like both. I shall always campaign against both. And I cried when I heard it was going on till 2010.

This is my opinion of BB:

:sniper:

I don't usually use the gun emoticons, but this show is so horrendously bad that it warrants it.
