I dont think its a matter of having a bad reputation or not. The thing is, that the show is controversial, and alot of the Brits are so up tight that they're not open minded when it comes to controversy. That leads to stupid complaints and bad word of mouth. Anything controversial will have a divide in opinion.

Its better to be controversial than boring. I think it's lasted 9 years due to the controversy. If it were boring then it wouldnt have lasted this long.
