I really don't understand why people get so aggro about game playing...the whole point of the show is to go in...get yourself some publicity and win heaps of money.

These people are in a pressure cooker it would bring out the worst and best traits in every single one of us....yeah its interesting to watch the group dynamics and some of the tasks....what bemuses me is the way these people are being demonized on the outside......

yeah i agree with you but i think if i was in the house it would get to me!

Definately mate, its inevitable we're gonna react to the situation we're in and the people we're surrounded by.....i'll watch the show, i'll see the way people behave ans think 'steady on now' or 'that's probably not the wisest of ways to deal with that'....but to be calling people 'psycho's'. 'vile', etc etc all seems a bit extreme ay.

It's the way people conduct themselves in order for their gameplan to work though. I think thats what people are getting angry about. I don't even really think that it is a gameshow in that sense. It's not why we watch it otherwise we would all be watching BBUSA instead.

It is a game, so i find it weird that anyone would go on without a gameplan.

See there's the irony for me e.g. some people don't like lisa's aggressive behaviour....yet look at the posts and the language used to describe lisa.....now they are nasty even malicious....

In what way would you say it's a gameshow??
My understanding is the show started as a bit of a money making sociological/psychological experiment.....it still is but compared to bb1 the folks go in there knowing they will get their 15 minutes of fame and the producers put a mix of 'controversial' characters, ''attractive people' etc etc as it's inevitable conflicts will occur, people will flare up, some will be attracted to each other, some will form 'entertaining' friendships and we pay money to choose which people we want to keep in the house for out entertainment....
