The Greatest TV Shows of the Noughties

[ILoveTRW]

On C4 Tonight from 9:00 to 10:35pm

A celebration of the greatest TV of the past decade, drawn from a survey of leading TV critics and industry figures, and a YouGov public poll. As well as superlative drama series like The Wire and the breathtaking photography of Planet Earth, the Noughties saw the rise and fall of reality series such as Big Brother, The Apprentice and The X-Factor. Stars including David Tennant and Jeremy Clarkson debate whether this has been a golden age of entertainment or a cultural recession.

I wonder where Big Brother will be placed, if they have any sense it will be number 1.

EDIT:
01) Top Gear
02) The Apprentice
03) Doctor Who
04) Britains Got Talent
05) QI
06) The X Factor

09) Planet Earth
10) Life On Mars

15) Gavin and Stacey
16) Coronation Street
17) Spooks
18) Strictly Come Dancing
19) I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here
20) Dragons Den

[Stu]

Too many people against it for it to be number one despite being one of the most important shows of the decade, and most people reckon it's been jumping the shark since 2006, but it should definately place high.

[Arneldo]

It'll definitly make the chart, seeing as it's in the advert. I'd be happy/suprised if it made the top 10.

[Tom]

BB should be #1 or its a farce. The noughties have been defined through reality TV and z list celebrities. Big Brother started all of that in this decade and not only did it start the boom of reality TV, but it also defined how reality TV is approached. For example The Apprentice wasn't a trashy show at all, but it suddenly became popular when the BBC made it into a Big Brother-style show. And X Factor never really took off until 2007 when Simon started headline grabbing. From Popstars The Rivals right through to X Factor 3 it was about the same amount of people watching each variation. They've managed to double the audience since they took the new approach. Big Brother also started the spin off show, not just for reality TV but for the likes of awards shows and arguably dramas (e.g. Footballers Wives Extra Time).

Without BB we wouldn't have the z list celeb culture we have (whether that is a good or bad thing is open to dispute though). It was the BB housemates that were first on the cover of Heat, followed by other oxygen thieves like Katie Price and Kerry Katona etc. They probably wouldn't have got their TV documentaries had it not been for Big Brother. Thats kind of dying out now, at the same time the ratings for BB fell through the floor and Jade Goody dying, so its all kind of symbolic and a bit poignant really.

And then you can say it has tackled issues such as racism, class and mental health as well as showing appearances aren't everything (a bandwagon BGT has jumped on this year as though its something brand new even though Big Brother did it first). Its made the viewers a bit more broadminded and understanding I think (even if we still laugh at the freaks).

Then above all, it has been a very entertaining show with a very loyal following until the last year or so with a huge following online. I mean what other fanbases will get excited at a 2 second eye flash? I haven't seen an online fan base like this for any other show.

Even though noone watches it anymore, EVERYONE has had something to say about the show whether good or bad, and nobody can deny the impact its had on TV and popular culture. So anything short of number 1 is a joke.

[Braden]

i really hope doctor who gets placed high

[MarkWaldorf]

#1 was already revealed as:

(Top Gear)

It was determined by industry experts and public polls, so it would never have reached #1.

[Stu]

I know it's hugely popular but that's a riddiculous choice for number #1 because it's still a niche show for certain people with a certain interest.

What a joke.

[Patrick]

Well said.

And thanks for telling us, i`ll give it a watch.

[Patrick]

i really hope doctor who gets placed high

Oh god.

[Braden]

Oh god.

i bet you it gets a higher place than big brother.
even though i love both shows i think doctor who has more of an edge

[Locke.]

Taking everything into account - Writing, producing, acting, ect, Lost easily wins. Sopranos, 24, The Shield, The wire and all them should be up there too. But I'm guessing it will be filled with all kinds of reality tv.

i doubt american shows will be on there.

What a joke.

Thats what they think. It has a massive female following and people who have no idea about cars who like to think they do. Its more about the presenters in the same way X Factor is about the judges. I don't see how its the greatest show of the decade, it has done NOTHING for TV or culture and is practically identical to any other similar shows (Five air some).

[Smithy]

Top Gear is no 1 save you all an hour of boredom

[Scarlett.]

practically identical to any other similar shows (Five air some).Fifth Gear....really?

Boy are we lucky to have you around.

[Shaun]

as long as The Office, Peep Show, Heroes and Family Guy feature, I'm happy.

I won't get my hopes up for The Green Wing, immense though it was.

[Tom4784]

I've got it recording.

Fifth Gear was a copycat of the old Top Gear format

[Scarlett.]

Fifth Gear was a copycat of the old Top Gear format

No, Fifth Gear IS the old Top Gear format, Fifth Gear originally was going to be callled Top Gear after it moved :p

[Stu]

Family Guy was one of the greatest shows of the ninties and probably made the list of a simmilar countdown ten years ago under the name 'The Simpsons'.

I would much rather Futurama make the list.

[Scarlett.]

Futurama > Family Guy > The Simpsons

It broke from the usual cartoon sitcom format

[Tom]

No, Fifth Gear IS the old Top Gear format, Fifth Gear originally was going to be callled Top Gear after it moved :p

It isn't, Five stole the presenters, production crew and format just before BBC axed it first time around

[Scarlett.]

It isn't, Five stole the presenters, production crew and format just before BBC axed it first time around

Exactly, its the same show as the original Top Gear :p

[Patrick]

South Park is far better than the Simpsons, Family Guy and Futurama put together.

[Stu]

Futurama > Family Guy > The Simpsons

It broke from the usual cartoon sitcom format
The thing that makes it great is it's setting. You can get away with anything because it is set in the future so you get so many comedy scenarios that would be impossible in other shows. And the interpretation of the future itself too is fantastic.

[Patrick]

Top Gear is no 1 save you all an hour of boredom

Is It?

If it is then you prat, why didnt you say it was a Spoiler before ruining it for everyone..

[Tom4784]

Futurama > Family Guy > The Simpsons

It broke from the usual cartoon sitcom format

I agree, although (for once) I agree with Patrick that South Park should be there somewhere, It's gotten stronger and stronger over the years.

[Scarlett.]

I agree, is it still going? I heard it was saved

[Tom]

Exactly, its the same show as the original Top Gear :p

It isn't :tongue:

If it was the same show then it wouldn't be on BBC2 at all any more, plus it had two completely different production companies. And the Top Gear wasn't relaunched until after the first series of Fifth Gear so it could've returned in its original form on BBC2.

Five stole it rather than it moving

[Tom]

I agree, although (for once) I agree with Patrick that South Park should be there somewhere, It's gotten stronger and stronger over the years.

South Park is pretty much a 90s show though, thats when it was at its peak

[Scarlett.]

Okay, technically its the same show :P

Whereas Top Gear is something of a comedy-entertainment cross breed, I mean, the specials shows the show isnt really about the cars :joker:

[ILoveTRW]

I Love your sig Patrick <3

[Stu]

South Park is pretty much a 90s show though, thats when it was at its peak
I disagree. It's far more political now and far better written. It's more known for it's intelligent satires now than it is for, say, eight year old's cursing or a piece of **** in a christmas hat. That's not saying crude humor is still there, but overall I think it's a far better show.

I do think it's getting a bit old now however. It seems like now it's ''we are the South Park creators, and here is what we don't like this week''.

And yeah, Chewy, Futurama was officialy saved. The movies have finished up and I believe the new series will air in America next June.

[Shaun]

The Simpsons is in a league of its own - it's pretty poor now, but the old episodes are excellent. Without it the other cartoon-sitcoms wouldn't exist.

I dont really like South Park anymore, since I lost touch with it when I was a kid xD and it does seem like weekly episodes are about the flavour of the week from what I hear

and excellent!

I agree, I was watching the first season episodes, the animation wasnt top notch, but the writing was, the family were relatable, now they're just charicatures (sp?) of what they once was

[Stu]

The Simpsons had it's peak with series 3-6. It's current standing depends if you are the type of person who judges based on recent memory or prefers to remember the old glory.

[Jords]

Top Gear? Whyyy???

I like it but not number 1!

[Beastie]

There is only 20 in the countdown. This is good because I hope they talk a lot about Big Brother :D Big Brother would be number 1 in our ideal world but there are too many snobs who would not want that to be number 1.. :( I am looking forward to this countdown anyways! woo hoo!

[King Gizzard]

When Women ruled the world...














i jest

[Beastie]

Top Gear is no 1 save you all an hour of boredom

How do you know?

[Tom]

Okay, technically its the same show :P

Whereas Top Gear is something of a comedy-entertainment cross breed, I mean, the specials shows the show isnt really about the cars :joker:

I think after the relaunch it turned into the Richard, Jeremy and James show with cars chucked in much in the way I said a few posts back how X Factor has turned into a show about the judges with some singing chucked in.

[Beastie]

I don't mind watching Top Gear! And yeah you are right Tom.. X Factor is more about the judges..

Gosh Big Brother is amazing! A credible show, a group of nobodies entering our house for a whole summer. A lot better than seeing who has the better outfit.. "Danni or Cheryl"? What a joke..

[Tom]

Well it was a credible show until BB went evil in 2004 :tongue:

Since then its been gutter TV at its best, and its been amazing :joker: (well apart from BB8 and 10)

[ILoveTRW]

[Braden]

Yeah I noticed that. It is a shame really.

[Patrick]

I was watching on Youtube earlier 'The Noughties was that it?' and they count down the top 60 things of the Noughties.

BB was 9th, and they were all saying how **** it is now and that no one likes it.
I just want BB11 to prove everyone wrong..and hopefully open up doors for BB12.

[Beastie]

FIGHT about the bible...

[Beastie]

Paul Burrell!!!!!!! LOL

[Jords]

Love dragons den and IAC :D

[Patrick]

I hope BB is placed good.
Shocked at IACs placement.

If Doctor Who is placed in the Top 5, then whoever voted for this show is a bunch of geeky low lifes who need slapped.

[Beastie]

Peter >> dur dur dur dur dur this is INSANIAAAAAA

[ILoveTRW]

you know the blonde chick in your sig,
what season of the real world is she from ?

Paula Walnutz is her name, she was on The Real World: Key West and quite a few challenges afterwards

[Beastie]

Yeah I thought IAC would be placed a bit higher.. Katie and Peter having a mention..

[Beastie]

*breaaaaaaaaaaak*

[Stu]

I hope BB is placed good.

Or because it's hugely popular with people of all ages and from all walks of life.

Seriously, just shush. You are no longer allowed talk about certain things. Your so incredibly ignorant towards pretty much everything outside your limited grasp. It's the equivalent of me saying you must be a nineteen year old gay prowler because you watch Big Brother.

[Braden]

Paula Walnutz is her name, she was on The Real World: Key West and quite a few challenges afterwards

ok i'm going to watch thats series,
as she looks very intriguing.

[Shaun]

you must be a nineteen year old gay prowler because you watch Big Brother.

I don't watch Big Brother any more :nono:

[MarkWaldorf]

Are they actually ranking shows or just showing random montages?

[ILoveTRW]

ok i'm going to watch thats series,
as she looks very intriguing.

omg you cant even imagine, she was an anorexic alcoholic lol

watch it at mtv.com instead of downloading torrents
all you need to do is download this program (http://hotspotshield.com/) and it will give you a US ip

[Beastie]

18 >>>>> Strictly come dancing!

[ILoveTRW]

Are they actually ranking shows or just showing random montages?

[biglover]

[Patrick]

SCD is great entertaiment?

What the ****, the only house hold that watches this over X Factor is Old Peoples Homes.

[Beastie]

I don't watch Big Brother any more :nono:

Whyyy? Please watch the last CBB and BB11! You are missing out!

[MarkWaldorf]

oh okay, ty!

[Jords]

Eww Strictly

[biglover]

all they do is dance very poorly! thats it! bright lights an skimpy outfits cant make it interesting!! Its sooo annoying how people say its good when it is terrible!!!!

[Shaun]

personally don't like Strictly but it's been a huge success.

[Beastie]

strictly shouldnt have even made the list, its so dull

This.. or at least not come above IAC.....

[Beastie]

Hey Mark Waldorf!

[biglover]

strictly final - 10 million

X Factor final - 19 million (Almost double)

you do the math of which is better....

[Patrick]

Or because it's hugely popular with people of all ages and from all walks of life.

Oh FFS Stu, why do you always have a problem with somthing I say!

[Beastie]

17 >> spooks

[biglover]

Spooks..oh please, those american shows **** allover it

[Shaun]

is this just British shows? because if it's a top 20 worldwide none of these shows would be in the list.

[Beastie]

I have not watched Spooks but it appears to be good..

[biglover]

is this just British shows? because if it's a top 20 worldwide none of these shows would be in the list.

I know lol, its not just british, sky information includes friends in the list

[Beastie]

is this just British shows? because if it's a top 20 worldwide none of these shows would be in the list.

[Patrick]

Corrie you bastards!

Eastenders ***** all over you!

[Jords]

a deep fat frier D:

Nasty ):

Yey Corrie! :hugesmile:

[biglover]

Coronation ST.!!!! what a load of old ****!

[Patrick]

Eastenders is seriously far better than this old ****.

[Beastie]

Corrie the only soap to make it and I am grateful it is not Eastenders.. lol eventhough I did enjoy Eastenders xmas episode.

OMG I LOVED CORRIE WHEN RICHARD HILLMAN WAS ON!

[biglover]

All soaps are pants, why are they still on the air

[Beastie]

All soaps are pants, why are they still on the air

Neighbours is the only one worth watching for me now.

[Patrick]

Corrie the only soap to make it and I am grateful it is not Eastenders.. lol eventhough I did enjoy Eastenders xmas episode.

OMG I LOVED CORRIE WHEN RICHARD HILLMAN WAS ON!

Eastenders has far better characters and storylines.

EE Has one far more awards, and Corrie is full of Old People.
Eastenders is full of entertaining characters.

[Jords]

Corrie won over Eastenders??? Dont be silly, Eastenders wins the award for best soap the majority of the time!

[biglover]

...oh wow peter kay!...sarcasm

[Patrick]

All soaps are pants, why are they still on the air

Because everyone loves them and they`ve been on for years and arent going anywere.

[Beastie]

15 >> gavin and stacey!

[biglover]

I like it, but not the 15th best this decade

[Shaun]

G&S <3
immense show.

[Patrick]

Larry Lamb!

You legend

[Tom]

Gavin and Stacey is the biggest pile of overrated shite ever to hit TV

[Jords]

I dont watch it, but its spose to be really good.

[biglover]

i like nessa

[Scarlett.]

All soaps are pants, why are they still on the air

Because they continously deliver high ratings all year round, and are only beaten by things like BGT and XF

[biglover]

I like grand designs

[Shaun]

LMFAO.

this is such bullshit.

[Stu]

Oh FFS Stu, why do you always have a problem with somthing I say!
Because the majority of what you say is uninformed gutter ****.

[King Gizzard]

gav and stacey beats corrie, lol amazing

[Tom]

Grand Designs LOL

[Jords]

Grand designs is good, but not in the best 20!?

[Stu]

GRAND DESIGNS?

And Corrie?

Did they do this survey during a bingo night?

[Patrick]

GRAND DESIGNS?

And Corrie?

Did they do this survey during a bingo night?

:joker::joker:

[Jordan.]

ughh.

[Scarlett.]

How has the list gone so far btw?

[President]

What a joke that EastEnders didn't make the Top 20. It's had far more impact this decade than Corrie.

[Jords]

GRAND DESIGNS?

And Corrie?

Did they do this survey during a bingo night?

Hahaha! My mum goes bingo and she loves grand designs :hugesmile:

[Jordan.]

Shameless!!! :)

[Stu]

Shameless after the break. Wahey!

[Jords]

Shameless :laugh:

[President]

Apparently Big Brother didn't make the Top 20. I'm surprised by that!

[Patrick]

What a joke that EastEnders didn't make the Top 20. It's had far more impact this decade than Corrie.

Well said Preseident.
Corrie has went down hill, Eastenders on the otherhand has been getting better and better

[Shaun]

Shameless <3

but Harry Hill? ****ing hell.

[Stu]

It's so strange watching David Threfwhatshisface sober. So used to Frank Gallagher.

Scatter, partay!

[Patrick]

Apparently Big Brother didn't make the Top 20. I'm surprised by that!

It did, at the start it showed us every show that would be on it.
And just when I thought BB wouldnt be showen..

The Voice Over said 'And the programmes you have turned your backs on..'
And it showed Big Brother 9.

So it will be mentioned

[Scarlett.]

What a joke that EastEnders didn't make the Top 20. It's had far more impact this decade than Corrie.

Depends which half of the decade you are on about though? Corrie was strong for the first half with Richard Hillman and Mad Maya, but has been quite weak through the second half and vica versa with EE being stronger through the second half

[Stu]

This.

[Patrick]

Who saw when it went on a break, The Number 4 came up for C4, and there was all flames in the Number 4 :)

CBB7

[President]

It did, at the start it showed us every show that would be on it.
And just when I thought BB wouldnt be showen..

So it will be mentioned
Here's the list of the Top 20 shows in no particular order. It was in the newspaper: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1238374/Top-Gear-takes-decades-accolade.html

At the bottom of the page.

[Shaun]

SHAMELESS :)

not so good nowadays but still.

[Beastie]

13 >> Shameless :D

[Jordan.]

wheyyy shameless!!!! great show.

[Jords]

Was that Suzie off EE?

[Beastie]

I love ****ing shameless! I hope the frank gallagher look alike who always auditions for big brother gets on for bb11!

[President]

Depends which half of the decade you are on about though? Corrie was strong for the first half with Richard Hillman and Mad Maya, but has been quite weak through the second half and vica versa with EE being stronger through the second half
EastEnders was very strong between 2000-2001. It had the Who Shot Phil storyline. Corrie was probably better in the next few years, but since 2007 I think EastEnders' been better. Oh well.

[Jordan.]

Was that Suzie off EE?

yep! she was hilarious

[Beastie]

Big Brother not made the top 20? If so that is ****ing pathetic. ****ing snobby bastard tv critics and the people who bastard voted.

[Jords]

yep! she was hilarious

Aha, was she in older series? Because I watched recent series and I couldnt remember her in it :p

[President]

I've never watched Shameless. Never had the time. But I'm going to buy the DVDs cos I've heard great things about it :D

[Beastie]

12 >> harry hills tv burp!

Great showwww

[Patrick]

Harry Hill is amazing

[Shaun]

harry hill...oh dear lord. Bingo Hall and a Kindergarten.

[Tom]

I've never watched Shameless. Never had the time. But I'm going to buy the DVDs cos I've heard great things about it :D

First few were really good, the last few not so good

[Jordan.]

Aha, was she in older series? Because I watched recent series and I couldnt remember her in it :p

Yep from series 1 - 4 i think :)

ugh hate harry hill :/

[Stu]

No Big Brother is an absoloute joke and really shows how much the producers have let it slip from grace, but still!

[Beastie]

I've never watched Shameless. Never had the time. But I'm going to buy the DVDs cos I've heard great things about it :D

Buy them all, they are all great. I think the 7th series is on tv next month :D

[ILoveTRW]

At the end of the day The Real World should be number 1 but that would never happen.

[Jords]

Harry Hill - sometimes I love it and sometimes its annoying LOL

[Patrick]

At the end of the day The Real World should be number 1 but that would never happen.

Agree

[Stu]

Buy them all, they are all great. I think the 7th series is on tv next month :D
Can't wait!

[Beastie]

11 >> friends

[biglover]

Yesxsssss!!! FRIENDS IS AMAZING!! I WATCH IT EVERY DAY

[President]

I loved Friends. But E4 shows it too much :mad:!

[Jords]

EE is not awful :nono:

Friends :)

[Patrick]

'But channel 4 still has the rights'

Oh dont we ****ing know, 440 Episodes of Friends a day and No BB Live feed.

[Beastie]

Yay friends! Defo deserved to be on the list woo hoo

[Shaun]

...only good until s6/7 really, but amazing show. Probably top 10 of the 90s.

[ILoveTRW]

Agree

u2u me once you have finished with philly and ill tell you how to watch the latest seasons :thumbs:

[Tom]

'But channel 4 still has the rights'

Oh dont we ****ing know, 440 Episodes of Friends a day and No BB Live feed.

More people watch Friends than BB live feed though

Patrick I really think you ought to let go of Big Brother, you seem a bit deluded about how popular (or not so) it actually is

[Braden]

At the end of the day The Real World should be number 1 but that would never happen.

i think i love money is better than the real world

[Beastie]

Yeah being bb live feed, even if friends end up being scrapped, I will then have reason to spend £40 on the box set if it is not on E4! Was thinking of getting it now because I dont think it will be any cheaper than £40 any time soon.. umm

[Shaun]

the last episode of friends :'(

[ILoveTRW]

i think i love money is better than the real world

maybe but its been so long since i watched i love money and it seems to be canceled :(

but the challenges (the i love money for real world cast member) is definitely better

[Beastie]

10 >>>>> life on mars

[Shaun]

wish I'd watched Life On Mars from the start.

'COS OF THE ****ING EPIC NAME + SONG

[biglover]

its an alright show, not 10th best

[Beastie]

president.. are you sure bb dont make the list?

[Jords]

Again spose to be really good but never caught it on when it first started

[Patrick]

u2u me once you have finished with philly and ill tell you how to watch the latest seasons :thumbs:

Will do :thumbs:

What year was RW:Philly filmed?

Was this series before Noirin and Isaac were on it?

[Beastie]

I have not watched LOM either..

[Braden]

maybe but its been so long since i watched i love money and it seems to be canceled :(

but the challenges (the i love money for real world cast member) is definitely better

yeah i see what you mean,
but i think its coming back with season four in january :dance:

[Jordan.]

BB must be in it they showed it in the adverts for this show? :conf:

[Patrick]

More people watch Friends than BB live feed though

Patrick I really think you ought to let go of Big Brother, you seem a bit deluded about how popular (or not so) it actually is

Not really, and besides im not the only one on here that loves Big Brother.
Thats why I joined, I love it but no one else does anymore so I want to talk to real fans of it on here.

[Beastie]

I love big brother eventhough bb10 had the worst housemates.

[Stu]

BB must be in it they showed it in the adverts for this show? :conf:
It could show up in a 'never made the list' montage at the end.

[ILoveTRW]

Will do :thumbs:

What year was RW:Philly filmed?

Was this series before Noirin and Isaac were on it?

philly was season 15 and was filmed in 2004

Noirin and Isaac were on the RW:Sydney, although not the best series in terms of drama i loved every single member of the cast making it one of my favourite

[Shaun]

k who the **** cares

[Braden]

if any american show were to be on there,
it should be i love money or america's next top model.

[Beastie]

9 >> planet earth a budget of 16 million quid

[Beastie]

It could show up in a 'never made the list' montage at the end.

This is the LEAST they could do but still..

[ILoveTRW]

yeah i see what you mean,
but i think its coming back with season four in january :dance:

thats what i heard, but if this is true why have we heard nothing from vh1 yet, usually we hear about a new season 3 months in advance

[Jords]

BB should be in the list, I know the past 3 years havnt been great for it, but its of the noughites, and before 2007 the show was a big big hit.

[Tom]

Not really, and besides im not the only one on here that loves Big Brother.

I'm sure theres a Richard and Judy forum somewhere as well, that didn't stop their show flopping

3m watch the show. 10m used to. BB is over after BB11. It has lost over 60% of its viewers.

I do still like the show but I'm aware how popular it is in the bigger picture, and thats not very. There won't be a BB12 in the near future.

Saturday highlights throughout BB7 were more watched than the BB10 final, does that not tell you something?

[Beastie]

Yep it was.. I just blame the people who voted and tv critics..

[Beastie]

*break*

[Shaun]

YES QI AND THE OFFICE :D

love.

[Stu]

QI. Hell yeah baby. Even though it has the most whimsically pathetic theme tune ever.

[Beastie]

Anyone want a cuppa?

[Jords]

Anyone want a cuppa?

the beast well done on 10k posts btw, you need to ask for the award thing :p
And go on then! :)


Edit: you have it now lmao.

Yes, I know BB isnt popular anymore.

I never said it was, but its still brilliant.
BB9 wasnt watched by that many people and it was the best series IMO.

Of course there will be a BB12 but it wont be until about 4 years in the future

[Braden]

thats what i heard, but if this is true why have we heard nothing from vh1 yet, usually we hear about a new season 3 months in advance

apparently marcia who was on the show confirmed it would air in januray som time ?

[Beastie]

the beast well done on 10k posts btw, you need to ask for the award thing :p

And go on then! :)

Ok :D Do you have sugar/milk?

And Jords Thankyou and I have my award :D

<< It is the blue little box that says 10k in it :D

[Patrick]

if any american show were to be on there,
it should be i love money or america's next top model.

Americas next top model is so stupid and annoying they have a NTM for every bloody country now.
I was watching Ghost whisperer yesterday and an advert came on for 'Canadas next top model' I was like 'Oh God!'

If any American Show were to make it, it should be the Real World

[Stu]

Ok :D Do you have sugar/milk?

And Jords Thankyou and I have my award :D

<< It is the blue little box that says 10k in it :D
I was going to say that to Jord's but ... your award has suddenly vainished on my page too, and it was there a few seconds ago?!

[Beastie]

I think there will be a bb12 but after a few years break..

[President]

president.. are you sure bb dont make the list?
Yeah I'm 99% sure, unfortunately. The article has been right so far. I'm really surprised as it's been one of the most influential shows of the decade.

[Jords]

Ok :D Do you have sugar/milk?

And Jords Thankyou and I have my award :D

<< It is the blue little box that says 10k in it :D

Milk and 1 1/2 sugars please :hugesmile:

And ah so you do, some of your posts didnt have it on but others do lmao.

[Beastie]

the office.. **** what number we on?

[Patrick]

Ricky Gervais, is a legend!

[Shaun]

This should be higher than #8. Incredible show, best sitcom of the noughties.

[Patrick]

I think there will be a bb12 but after a few years break..

Its for the best.
I would rather a 3 year break than it be gone forever tbh

[biglover]

very good show, but the dance just wasnt funny

[Beastie]

Milk and 1 1/2 sugars please :hugesmile:

And ah so you do, some of your posts didnt have it on but others do lmao.

*Makes Jords a cuppa*

Oh well my 10k award should be on EVERY post! Well since my 10,000 post to now.. umm

*I just farted*

[Patrick]

Ricky reminds me so much of Marcus Akin.

Which is why hes such a legend.

[Jords]

We watched an episode in RE once, I didnt really like it lol

[Shaun]

Gareth pmsl.

And Dawn/Tim <3

[Braden]

:O don't diss NTM.

[Patrick]

and i love money is way better than the real world in my opinion

Havent seen it, whats it about?

[Beastie]

Yeah I'm 99% sure, unfortunately. The article has been right so far. I'm really surprised as it's been one of the most influential shows of the decade.

Yeah.. oh and hello President btw. You dont seem to come on TIBB since the BB season.. unless I am wrong! I really like you and you used to give a lot of BB spoilers :D

[Beastie]

7 >> The SIMPSONS!

[Shaun]

[Jords]

The Simpsons!! :)

[Jordan.]

Simpsons should of won!!!

[Patrick]

The Simpsons?

Thats not a noughties show, jesus christ.

Its went downhill since the movie.

South Park is better than it.

I miss the old Simpsons.

[President]

Yeah.. oh and hello President btw. You dont seem to come on TIBB since the BB season.. unless I am wrong! I really like you and you used to give a lot of BB spoilers :D

Lol Patrick you sound a bit negative tonight but you are very funny :joker:

I also miss your Caroline Flack avatar :D

[Shaun]

that 'stale and repetitive' joke is a bit ironic now.

[Braden]

Havent seen it, whats it about?

it's when celebreality stars compete to win £250,000.
its full of back-stabbing, romance, bitching, fights.
its really good.

[Beastie]

[Beastie]

[ILoveTRW]

[Shaun]

Well done Louis, Took you long enough to figure it out.

[Tom]

I miss Sharon :(

[Stu]

XF above Simpsons and The Office...ahaha. Pull the other one.
I know it's insane. You can't deny it's impact so a default place in the bottom ten would have done fine, but 6 for this piece of ****?

[Beastie]

'The XF Isnt just a talent show..its a reality show aswell'

Well done Louis, Took you long enough to figure it out.

Copied off BB

[Braden]
