I like the sound of The Golden Cage. I think I'd try it.

the golden cage sounds rubbish.

In regards to TRWs ratings, you have to remember that each show is repeated about 10 times in the following week so people don't necessarily tune in for the first time a particular episode is being shown. I think it averages about 10m+ per week and in its prime it was getting something like 50m+ per week.

That's true, only the hardcore fans tune in for the first showing. And sometimes it's repeated even more than 10 times a week. Sometimes they'll show it twice a day or even 3 times in some cases (morning, afternoon, and evening).

There was already a UK version, years ago, of The Real World but it wasn't called that. It was shown on the BBC and was set in a student house.

Yeah it did quite well I seem to remember.
That was the UK first reality show.

k im saying 2 mil. is low for america!!! usa and canada have way more people in it then england. the big brother here gets ratings ranging from 7-9 mil. so 2 mil. is nothing compared to that.

Well you're comparing the ratings of a show on Channel 5 to the ratings of a show on MTV. MTV's cable. Once you get outside of CBS/NBC/FOX/ABC/CW, ratings drop since it becomes cable.

And Ithinkiloveyoutoo, Pedro's season was the third season, not the first, just saying.

That's weird considering there are only 6m people in the UK.

If there are only 6 million people in the UK, how does X Factor sometimes achieve over 10 million viewers?

[Ryan57]

I'd like to see the viewing figures for each night. 18 months is far too long.

[zotler.]

6 million people in the UK. Haha. Over 7 million live in London ALONE. XD

[lostalex]

i think the real world/RR challenge actually gets better ratings than the actual normal Real World seasons now, doesn't it?

The Real World was the ORIGINAL reality show though. There would be no big brother if not for the Real World.

Could be interesting, it's better than nothing at all I suppose!
