BB=Big brother, or Big Bother, or Big Bag of Rubbish
Ok, what can we do to get this bs off the tele. I've said before, I don't hate much, but this show, I HATE. The people on it included, and the people that made the incredibly rude "I don't think so" jingle.
I'll admit it, I watch some crap. But this is beyond that. I don't see the entertainment that can come from watching a bunch of adults acting like immature brats.
The ONLY reality tv I will occasionally watch is the biggest loser. Because it makes the people in the house genuinely happy, it shows their health and lifestyle improvements, and they aren't completely stupid.

BUT, if the show didn't make me soooooooo angry already (don't give me this, "You don't have to watch it" crap. This stuff is bad for society in my opinion, I just finished babysitting my 8yr old cousin, and thats what he tried tricking me to watch). But they are getting that wicked cool, super party-boy Cory in next week. I only know this because they advertised it before the biggest loser finale (wow, some did really good stuff, one guy got rid of his diabetes).
What are they thinking. How can they parade this "legend" around. I'm not some do-gooder of society, but I think this is completely inappropriate.

What more I can't believe is that EVERY SINGLE MORNING, all they talk about on the radio is about the events occurring in the house the day before. Lucky one of my favourite channels 94.5, is listened mostly to by old people, so I manage to escape.

Sorry about this, but it makes me angry.

Am I the only one? Other fellow young people froth over the show, but I don't see why.
Or am I abnormal? (Could be the reason)

hit the RED button, then run away screaming.

Good on you DP.This means your not a sheep and actualy have your own personality.I reckon the main watcher of BB is your overweight teenage girl.Sitting back madly texting her votes.
I'm with relli in that i enjoyed the first one.But now it's pure pus.
Saying that i will have one eye on the teli for friday night live .... There's just something about Bree Amer that mesmorizes me

As for removing it from the air.....The ratings will decide that..my tip is it will be the last one....

Mr Patrol, I agree with you and have felt your frustration, however I have moved on beyond your frustrated state. You have some options,
1/ Remove yourself from being exposed to it. Yes, turn it off.
2/ dont listen to commercial radio, all they do is crossreference anything that is remotely popular in a blatant attempt to align themselves to increase their ratings.
3/ If you watch TV watch the ABC, or SBS,
4/ Listen to ethinic radio or one of the many ABC channels
5/ do not bring newspapers into your home, the west, the sunday times etc are simply another device to cram advertising into your synapses and influnence your choices.

Can you influence the community and make change? probably not, but by ignoring the blatant attempt to dumb down the population and turn us all in to a bubbly drink sculling, instant warm up your food culture and constantly being told by the advertising mediums that "YOU HAVE NO TIME" you may find that you do if you remove yourself from the above, ie dont watch the teli, or massively reduce your exposure, dont listen to the radio, it just drives you insane, add after add, cook your own food, grow some vegies, drink water, teach your kids to discern the crap, you dont need to rail against it, BB etc, just studiously ignore it, dont join in converstaion about. Just dont do it, go windsurfing or surfing instead.

the show is crap, less poeple are watching it so they stuff the house full of F%^& weirdos and retards to try and boost rateings, poor form chanel 10

Well theres always a solution to problems like this.

Snipers!!! [}:)]

For the BB house I'd rather see them use a .50

And this weeks intruder is Sgt Roy Smith...And whats your plan while your in the house roy??
Roy :- I think i'll just try to blend in Grettle.[}:)]

They ditched the old hag Grettle and replaced her with a blonde vegetarian hottie... oh Jackie O

Big Brother and its TV ilk exists for the same reason pop music exists. Pre pubescent and younger teenage girls. Unless you are in this group you will find most of the stuff on commercial TV is quite banal and idiotic.

If like me you don't like football, cricket or home improvements all that much then 90% of commercial TV is a waste of time.

Thank goodness for

ABC
ABC2
SBS
and
DVD's

Influence of America in one neat little package. Damn Americans. Damn Kyle Sandlinds.

Thank you Japan for providing an 'off' button on my TV remote.

I think BB actually comes from Holland so you can't blame the yanks for this particular problem. I miss having Foxtel/Austar. No need to watch commercial channels.

I think Cory is kinda cool.

He would make a lovely boyfriend for you Liz..

Sniping would get a reaction - huge ratings for the last episode. Random poisoning would be interesting.
Maybe send a plausible threat from Jameah Islameah or something and see how they react.
Ecstasy in the water supply would make for some interesting viewing.
