YAY FRYZIE GOT KICKED HE WAS SUCH A TOTAL ASSWIPE IF ANY ONE LIKE HIM CAME NEAR MY DAUGHTERS I'D KILL HIM!

That was a public service announcement for the Greater Good of Australian Footy Players of Australia.

Yeah, I gotta admit I didn't want him to win.
As much as I hate Biog Brother for a variety of reason, it still manages to suck me in and hate one contestant more than another.

Oh Big Brother. My my sort of reality show. Nothing in it for the viewer I find. Well this viewer at least. With The Apprentice I can amuse myself by working how to complete the tasks better than the contestants and I gaind a lot of perverse pleasure with Survivor Allstars in tipping who was getting booted each week. Am also a series currently being shown in which a celebrity chef whose name escapes me attempts to fix up some of the most apallingly run kitchens in England. Since I'm in the industry myself I enjoy seeing how hopeless some chefs can be.

I agree. I had to look at the comments here to find out what the hell that entry meant.

Big Brother's only possible entertainment value would be if they showed lots of nudity in the uncut show. Even then, it'd only be worth it for one show per series.

Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares has been kind of interesting, though I'm guessing that the rest of the series will inevitably be more of the same. After all, how much worse can chefs get than that first one?
