I'm stating the obvious to those who know me but I'm one of the biggest reality-haters on this forum. Since the advent of Big Brother the whole genre has been a blight on quality TV. If it's billed as "reality", I don't watch it.

I like some reality, Strictly Come Dancing is classy, but I'm hooked to Big Brother.

I just don't understand the mentality of people who watch Big Brother.

Do they go to work in the morning and watch everyone else have a conversation?

It's madness. What possible enjoyment can anyone get out of watching this crap?

Yeah but you generally hate everything on TV right now and there's little you do like beyond... well, Harry Hill and Bewitched which is testament to your exhalted position on what's good and what's simply not.

Almost beating ol' Luxo at his own game of playing the role of someone recently unfrozen from the early 70's and hating all these modern day hijinks on th' telly, well done. Now just steal yourself some TV show episodes, re-air them online for free and call foul when the owner finds you out, genius!

how does that count as reality exactly? that's a talent contest.

"Reality" TV in my mind is Big Brother, Survivor, Shipwrecked type shows.

Big Brother was reasonably good when it started, but it's got steadily more dull. And I don't think I could have picked a worse CBB lineup if I tried- we have Barrymore, the most repulsive MP in the country, the woman who shagged Sven, a chain-smoking welshman who looks like he hasn't had a bath since 1995, Pete Burns who looks like a woman and a bunch of people I've never heard of.

Yes it maybe a talent comp, but in america they regard it as "reality".
