Big Brother: UK. (albums, madonna, American, show, quote)

I'm hoping for more racists this year, good times.

I gave up being a BB non-conformist a coupla years ago and this year... it's stimulating the usual mix of misanthropy and morbid fascination. I love it.

Ofcourse celebrity culture can eat my **** and you'd have be clinically insane to even entertain the idea of auditioning for the show; but it hits the same spots as a good soap opera and each year it's also interesting to see just how low the producers will go, how far they will push these poor suckers.

Evil geniuses behind the cameras at Channel 4. At the end of the day the workforces need something to brighten up their day after a good credit binge, don't they?

My fave to win: Luke
Who I want to win: undecided

Splendid, always a treat

Nice to know that folks across the pond can watch such mind numbing drivel as us here in the states. Do you have any shows where a disease riddled bi-sexual chooses between eligible sociopaths and co-dependents, I mean bachelors and bachelorettes to find "true" love do you?

P.S. Big Brother is awful here, it's beneath even most Americans to watch.

Yeah i watched a bit of the american one, not fun.

I always watch BB, it's one of my many many guilty pleasures.
So far it's been alright! Picture-gate was pretty funny, revealed everyone to be massive losers. Watching Dale cry over Jen, Cookie love, Kat's many mental breakdowns, Bex having absolutlely no charisma at all so resulting to stripping off, there's loads of great moments.

Fave to Win: Darnell possibly
Want to Win: None of them, they're all dicks.

I may never forgive Britain for giving us Pop Idol (well, American Idol here). It has utterly ruined music.

I forgot about Darnell, he was brilliant in 'Picturegate'! ...
Luke is hilarious to watch but too conniving for his own good, it's going to catch up with him before long. Bex is just... a waste of oxygen? There's generally something lacking in the majority of BB contestants (other than their dignity), I warm to the ones with something between their ears.

I haven't seen much of the American one but what I saw was horrible. What the UK version lacks in bleached teeth and orange complexion it makes up for in sheer character... Channel 4 producers really know how to manipulate the handicapped and mentally unstable for ratings.

Just what I did'nt want....the thread turning into a BB appreciation thread.

I speak on behalf of the UK in saying we take no responsibility for Simon Cowell.
