Default The rise of The Only Way Is Essex

This show is amazing and has to be seen to be believed

It is new in that it is a documentary with scenes that are contrived, but the dialogue is not. ie they will make one of the main guy characters go for a massage (when he normally would not) with another character. They engineer meetings and so on but it does not feel too contrived.

It is a new type of show and is the future in many ways.

and there is no point Essex folks saying it is not life-like. I have spent enough time in Brentwood and with folks from there to tell you it is real.

Just watch it and try

It's meant to be the english Hills essentially, I watched five minutes of it and felt the will to live drain away. Awful show and going by the ratings it'll be swiftly cancelled.

Have to say that watching a load of silicone enhanced bimbos fluttering their ridiculous false lashes, and their testesterone driven, Jack the Lad fellahs is not riveting viewing. I really couldn't care less about any of the characters - their lives seem so stereotypically shallow, sterile and self indulgent - even my life seems infinitely more interesting!

When is this on next? I really want to see it. Is that wrong?
