Big Brother 5
As you probably know, it starts this Friday here in the UK, but will anyone here be watching it? I lost interest in it after the second one, and I think this next one will be make or break time. If this one isn't a success, I can't see there being a sixth one.

I think it could be quite interesting at first. This year, they're making it as uncomfortable as possible for them, such as not supplying enough beds, glass doors in the toilets, horrible decor, uncomfortable chairs, etc., etc.

Should be fun to watch, as long as they have some half decent people on it this time...

I think they stopped here in the US after the 3rd. Unless I am just out of touch, but I don't recall it being HUGE like Survivor here.

Personally, I think they should've stopped it here after the third one also. With each series, the producers have gotten more and more desperate for ratings, which have been dropping with each series. This year, I think they're at their most desperate with the glass doors in the toilets.

Also, over here, a newspaper usually offers a sum of money to the first couple to have sex in the Big Brother house. This year, they purposely haven't supplied enough beds, forcing people to share a single bed, and hoping that'll get people to have sex...

Big Brother sucks, but it's great viewing when you've come in from a night out for some reason.
I don't know watching people do fuck all is great when your drunk.

As long as there's some fit birds I'll happily watch it. It does get funny when you watch all of them pissed in the house on the show that is on E4 all night.

Being serious I do watch it, and really start looking forward to it being on in the night. I think its an intersting show for some unknown reason.

Each year I say i'm gonna boycott it, but I always get sucked in by it..
Might have something to with the fact that my girlfriend watches it religiously.

Big Brother 4 started in Australia about a month ago. I don't really watch it at all unless I'm bored shitless in the early hours of the morning and there's absolutely nothing else to watch on TV except Big Brother Up Late. But I never watch the evictions or any of the Big Brother shows during prime time.

Big Brother in Britain and the U.S looked like two totally different concepts. For one, in the U.S one, I remember one contestant got let out and went to the MTV awards. What the fuck is that all about?

It's pure shite anyways. I'm just dreading my mum and sister watching the 24 hour coverage constantly. Euro 2004 can't come quick enough.

The only reason people even watch it these days is because they think something big might happen. My mom constantly criticises the quality of the show, but watches it whenever possible for this reason alone. Like the topic starter, I liked it up until the end of season 2, then just got bored.

Still, I honestly have no idea why that fat ugly idiotic fuck, Jade from season 3 continues to get media attention. Shes overweight, stupid and as attractive as a pile of puke, but that godawful magazine "Heat" (omg imajin lyfe w/o it) shoves adverts down my throat about what she did last week.

VERY unlikely I will watch it. We have our May ball this Friday so I wont see it then anyways. But I was a fan up until last year when they added in all these shit little twists, liking having people joing late, Cameron going to Africa and Guitani coming to England, Tickle coming back but not being able to win. It just seems shit and pointless, they are trying to hard for ratings, and making up new rules as they go along. I bet they let them watch part of Euro 2004, like they did with the World Cup.

Over here it's the other way round. Everyone seems to love Big Brother, and I don't think a single person in the entire country cares about Survivor.

They're both shit anyway.
