Anyone else going to auditions? Come on! Would love to see one of you people in there!

I don't recall any of those signs... just sheets of A4 paper with black arrows then some metal fencing and a 3 hour wait. Then they line you up in groups of 8-10-13 and ask you questions before you get through to the diary room bit infront of the camera's.
I think your mistaking those signs with the signup on this forum.
The auditions - despite having to wait so long are a great laugh. Everyone's friendly and up for a laugh. Great day out really.

Do you have to queue up at a sign that says:
Loose your creditability here? 1 hour wait
I believe the final sign says Nice knowing you, 2 minute wait from this sign! .

Each to their own and everything but the more people support Reality TV either by producing it, participate in it (and lets face you are going to look like a **** if you win or lose) or god forbid watch it, the longer it will dwindle on and on and on. I mean 15 weeks, its just a bloody joke.
It's TV at its very cheapest and I am sick to death of it.

I've never watched one reality show in my life. I would however like to watch something entertaining on the five main channels but they are constantly clogged with the likes of Big Brother and the Chav Celebrity.
It's cheap TV, which makes a couple of producers rich and leaves a schedule full of mindless pap. If you want to watch people rowing and arguing turn to the real world.
The people who enter these shows are wannabes which lets face never get anywhere when they leave as they went in with little talent and came out with the same but end up host other naff TV programmes. It sicking, the sooner we past this sad stage of TV the better.

Never? Seem to know an awful lot about them then.
As you said each to their own. Although your in a way insulting me I'm not overly bothered. I went applying for a laugh which it was. Just because you don't like this "pap" doesn't mean others don't. If I was to get in, which I doubt I ever would I wouldn't consider myself a wannabe who;'s entering with nothing. I'm a student and really just at the beginning of my life - it hardly ends when the show ends does it. Those who get a job in TV - good for them, if they make money and are happy. We wouldn't want opinionated testcard lovers presenting TV shows. Infact I would then be sick... blah

I'm not insulting you and if you think I was I do apologise but it the genre itself that grates me. And yes it is each to his own however, sadly, its rammed down my throat each day by the press.
Jane Goody's (or whatever her damn name is) got new boobs.... who cares? That's my problem.
Anyway I've hijacked your thread enough now, time for my calming down medication.

If you've never watched one reality show in your life, then how the hell do you know if you like it or not??
And isn't the Real World a reality show??
