Is love island what i think it is
 

I’m too lazy to watch an episode to find out for myself but the absolute WORST aspect of big brother was definitely the romances (heterosexual especially) so how do y’all enjoy a show where that’s the main focus?

And shut up if you’re gonna be like “you don’t have to watch it stop complaining” because i love complaining about stuff

get them!

Yeah it's BB but just focusing on the showmance aspect. Tragic really.

People crying after one day about being "split up"... :skull:

i watched it last year and i won't lie it took me all my ****ing effort to finish

Its a load of crap Scott but you may like the fit men.

You don’t know what you just started

I have no intention of actually watching it i just want everyone who watches it and enjoys it to explain what the hell they are playing at really!

and the cheesy editing of early C5 to top it off!

Any RTV is good RTV in this lacking climate?

i sorta liked the drama?? the 'tasks' were funny?? there were some nice one-liners?? i'd definitely much prefer to watch BB though (even in the state it was when it died oops)

it's sorta cute bc it's like the reality tv game show (besides the circle) which isn't American and so it doesnt have that god awful editing that's common among Survivor/BBUSA

With no BB, this has to do unfortunately

I love you Scott :laugh3:

like i'll never truly understand the people saying it's better than BB bc imo BB just allowed for more interesting dynamics,,, and bc all of the people are very samey in age and are sorta split in genders (all the girls talking abt boys at the pool and then men sunbathing) you just watch 'do bits society' for weeks on end

watching one series of it was cute though tbh

You like to complain... and I dont have to explain myself to you

I mean there's worse ways to spend a summer but I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to see Emma clutching an umbrella as dusk sets in the sky obscured by the flashy studio walls on a drizzling Friday evening as she reveals whose been evicted, as opposed to watching Wes and Jack talk about shagging in a bed for 10 mins

Idg why people watch this but the complained about the showmances in BB like??

That's because you watched the most boring series and when the show was at its most tamest. If you had watched series 2, you would've loved it.

People don't watch it for the ''romance'', we watch it for the drama. There's plenty of storylines that have occurred through 4 series. There's been ejections, walkings, arguments, fights, shock recouplings, confrontations, cruel dumpings, bullying etc. It's not just about ''romance''

Here's a few clips of some of the shows best and most talked about moments.

Sweetie did you really just post 15 video links thinking anybody would watch them

Are you on drugs?

No, you asked a question and I answered it.

Don't watch the video links if you don't want to, makes no difference to me.

I don't mind showmances on BB (I can love them or hate them, don't specifically dislike anything about it)... but Love Island is a weak representation of showmances. It's so dull and forced in it I can't :laugh:

Antons a gay straight acting hunk who brags about threesomes with girls even tho he’s gay

But the winner is decided on ‘the best romantic couple’ as voted by the public right? So it’s sort of all about romance and everything else is kind of irrelevant?

Hurricane Beth and Hurricane Liv :love:

SWEETIE dont you watch Britain’s Got Talent

Yes you can have a Go at them
its not challenging enough
needs more Action.
Thats ITV saving money
making cheap TV.

Yes well done for your Effort
Tony.

I watch it for the drama, and there's always plenty of it.

I mean kind of but I wouldn’t say everyone votes by that standard. Not everyone votes for the best singer on X factor, or the most talented on BGT.

Like last year, on screen Jack and Dani were the strongest couple, and although they did win many on here would vote for Laura and Paul, or Megan and Wes, because they preferred them

And Jon and Hannah were the runaway winners of S1 but Jess and Max, somewhat underdogs in the final, took the win.

Its relatively poorly educated woman who make themselves look like what they think men like and relatively poorly educated men who look like what they think a women will like - both are too young/stupid to have realised that its who they are that will get them a mate for life (their main driving force in all they do). Older TV execs exploit them voyeuristically for advertising revenue. People watch to ogle their bodies and to feel superior to them.

Its a direct descendant from the Gladiatorial arenas of Rome and the Victorian Circus freak shows

Hideous

It’s a bit **** but nothing else is on
