More interesting characters are overlooked and given no airtime as the manipulative con artists manage to convince SOME gullible viewers they are worth the air time they hog. JJ&J completely ruined the last ever BB, and Gillian McKeith has ruined this year's IAC. I feel sorry for people who think her attention seeking antics and selfish, self-serving behaviour are "entertaining and amusing".
I can assure you she will not be missed by the majority of viewers who will now get a chance to see more of their favourites. There are far bigger, better and more interesting characters left in the jungle, now that the one trick pony has got the boot. In case you're wondering how I can be so certain the wizened one's absence will barely register, it's because she got the lowest amount of votes in a VOTE TO SAVE, which is evidence that most people did NOT find her entertaining or amusing enough to waste their money on, so you, my friend, are in the minority.  |
LOL, it's not 'arrogance', love, it's called common sense. Without these types of contestants reality TV shows would not exist, whether you like them or loathe them. That is just a simple fact, I'm afraid. You say it 'ruins the point of the show' - yet surely the point of the show is to ensure the most entertaining contestants win and survive as long as possible, no? After all - there wouldn't be a show without them. And it's quite odd that I notice you constantly condemn contestants in these shows for being 'fake' and 'playing the game' and 'conning people' to get 'airtime'. It's strange because, you know...these shows are
gameshows, those sorts of things should be praised and actively encouraged. It's just a bit...stupid, to condemn people for playing the game in a
gameshow.
And I have to ask you - she survived four/five [not sure how many] Vote to Save's - so what does that tell you? She was entertaining at first, surely? Not to mention she was voted to do nearly all Bushtucker Trials...and why is that? I wonder if it's because she was entertaining when she did them...

LOL please, it's completely the opposite. These shows wouldn't survive without them. Press and media attention, discussion and debate is what these shows thrive on. Anyone that believes that isn't the case is completely and utterly deluded.
