Big brother 8: A Small Mind

Britain is once again graced by three months of watching self obsessed people making themselves look stupid merely by their very existence, with little hope of achieving anything other than profit for the production and broadcast companies involved. Why is Big Brother such a terribly wasted opportunity?

Big Brother is watched largely by the "lowest common denominator" and encourages no more than purely shallow viewings.

Grr. Sorry this just irratates me that its steretyped as like the "lowest common denominator."

[chazwwe]

Damn

[InTheFade]

Oh no, if I knew what the lowest common denominator was, I'd comment.

[Ruth*Star]

Thats Harsh

[James_15]

I think it means stupid..

[dupin]

If I cared what that person thought, I'd probably be offended. Maybe if we all tried a little bit harder to not be the lowest common denominator we could be successful like that writer and make a living out of insulting people we don't know...we can only dream, right?

[Cody™]

obviously the writer of that comment is more shallow minded than anyone else! i am certainly not a low common denominator!

argh! i wanna swear! LOL

[BeeBee]

Where did you get this from, James???

Do you have a source?

[Red Moon]

If you post a newspaper article can you remember post a link to the original article.

And remember not to post with the cap's lock key on

cheers

[James_15]

Oh right.. just im just finding the source

[Sam]

Thats really mean , some people go on for the fun of going on

[InTheFade]

It's bollocks anyway, we all know for a fact that people of all different IQs watch the show and that whoever wrote this has nothing better to do than judge who's intelligent and who's not on whoever watches Big Brother...

[chazwwe]

yep so mean very mean

[Benji]

Ye...

[James_15]

It's just not true..

[Mrluvaluva]

Nothing to achieve.....erm....what about the prize fund???

[AlexTheGreat]

I Hate it when people say stuff like that and steretype people into a group

[Dan_]

Surely the person who wrote this must have watched it themselves to come to the conclusion about the people who are in it?

How to make friends and influence people eh?

[Spike]

I dont think the writer will be watching launch night

[Chrizzle]

Thats pathetic. What makes me tick is how people say its rubbish, but if its that rubbish and that 'low' why has it lasted 8 main series, 5 celeb series, and 2 spin offs. Watched by millions. Takes over the newspapers, and the TV.

[Matt08]

I wish people would just stop hating Big Brother, they should "privatly" hate it instead of ruining the series for everyone else. Like the racism row, why did all those people complain to Ofcom about it, they're spoil sports :@

[Bells]

I know, I hear quite a bit people saying, 'I can't believe you watch that' etc. - well each to their own, I guess. Lots of people watch it - all types of people as well - so it's wrong to generalise. It's just a matter of taste, and for some viewers BB just appeals to them, and they're entitled to it. I think it's a fun, interesting, entertaining reality TV programme that also happens to be very popular!

[the_chosen_one]

I think clever people do watch big brother, its not true that only stupid people watch.

[Polka.dot]

how dare they call most of the UK's population shallow!

[Crystal-Rose]

i bet the person who wrote that has never even watched a series!!
