Also it definitely is rewarding because lets not forget they get a huge amount of money for winning.

Because I've spent three months of my life invested in a show for a dreadful, undeserving ending. I feel the same if I finish a season of a drama and it ends disappointingly, it's like I wasted it all for nothing. I get that some people don't care who wins and I wish I could be the same but I can't, because it just takes the piss that someone can literally say and do nothing the entire series, hide in the background and float their way through to the final and then win usually because they're a ~nice~ attractive male. It also encourages people to do the same if they want to succeed (VTE enables this too) and it's the easiest, most counterproductive strategy ever

The money is where the 'it is not a charity' comes into it though, it's a secondary prize (the first being the title) for winning an entertainment programme and it should go to the person who has brought the most to it, or else we wouldn't have a show. Handing people the win cause they need the money or 'deserve it' is silly, Big Brother UK isn't a show driven by the money and it never has been, it's a byproduct of supposedly being crowned the best housemate of the series
