I pointed out that many of those hypocritical Gillian fans who flood the forum with posts about how entertaining and amazing she is never actually pick up the phone and vote, and always expect someone else to do it. Then they come on here afterwards and whinge about how people who HATED the cow should have kept her in when they themselves couldn't be arsed to. I vote for my faves so why didn't you and the other fans vote for the wizened one?

I did vote, thanks.

It did answer your question, because if the large majority of the public support the bores, then they're the ones that are going to last longer, aren't they? And that's more often than not the case in most reality TV shows. The most entertaining contestant is NEVER debatable - it's always the one who sparks the most discussion and debate. After all, that is what these types of shows thrive on. Without it, they would not exist. So if you don't support the most entertaining contestant, then it's obviously your fault that they leave, and in some cases - it's your fault that the show then becomes less entertaining, even mind-numbingly dull in some cases. This is what happened to Big Brother over the years. The so-called 'fans' are partly to blame for the demise of the show, and why the show has now been axed. Evicting entertaining contestants, praising and supporting dull ones - rendering the series practically unwatchable each year. All equaled low ratings and bad reviews. Other factors came into it, of course - but the fans certainly played their part, and they always do in these types of shows. If you don't support the most entertaining contestant(s) - it's your problem. Simple.
