People watch it because its on tv. Simple as that. If it wasnt there the only people who would seriously miss it are the voyeurs amongst us.

But people in the film industry can act, direct etc... and with the exception of manufactured pop idiots, people in the music industry have talent.

Big Brother retards want to get famous for being famous, and have absolutely no talent in their bodies whatsoever.

I have ambitions in both film and music, but I dont plan to talk to Heat magazine about it and appear on a shitty channel 4 panel/guest based show.

I don't understand how you get people who watch it who are so seriously into it they are actually FANS of some of the people in it.
What's that all about?

How can you be a fan of a contestant that's on it?

The people who go into the big brother house have no self respect in my opinion. If you want to be famous do something worthwile that you will be famous for rather than sitting in a house numbing the minds of the nation.
thats a bit unfair in my opinion. for example if i ever went on big brother itd simply be because its a joke way to win £70,000. itd be good for the cv "last summer i went on big brother and murkled all the other contestans hard".

in all seriousness though id just go in, do all the washing up and cleaning and shit, be nice to everyone and bag the hottest female in there and proceed to poke her out underneath the kitchen table like that geeza did to the chick from newcastle many moons ago
