BB makes me sooo glad I have Foxtel.........

I think in 6 seasons I have seen exactly 10 mins of the show, and that is 10 min too much, methinks.

It wasn't bad, the guys were naked in the shower , the girls covered up, but you saw some girls getting dressed so there were a few boobs bouncing around for you guys to perve on.

[Gosling1]

its about time they got them hooters out in the breeze. Its the 3rd week FFS

Dumvid the Gay Farmboy is flying under the radar, and could be a surprise winner, esepcially if he gets some chafed knees later in the series..........

Anna is a fuckin' airhead who doesn't deserve a rogering at all, and even if she got one, she would still whinge. Its part of the reason why God created the female orgasm..........so chicks like her can still moan, even when they are happy !!

Camilla needs to be evicted. Karen is a scheming bitch. Gay Alien still makes my children scream. The rest of them are basically quite boring.

I love this show........

Oh well Billy, glad you asked!!!

Big Brother is a popular reality television format, where, over 15 weeks or so, a number of contestants (usually 12) try to avoid periodic publicly-voted evictions from a communal house and hence win a cash prize. The show was invented by John de Mol of the Netherlands and developed by his production company, Endemol. It has been a prime-time hit in almost 70 different countries. no TV, radio, telephone, Internet or other media are available to the housemates, not even writing materials. The last remaining contestant is the winner.

Besides housemates living together, which is the major attraction of the contest, there are 4 basic props: the stripped-bare back to basics environment in which they live, the evictions system, the weekly tasks set by Big Brother, and the "diary room", in which the housemates individually convey their thoughts, feelings, frustrations and their eviction nominees.

Each week, the housemates each privately nominate a number of people who they wish to see removed from the house more than the other residents. The ones with the most nominations are then named on the television show, and viewers can vote for whom they want to be evicted.

After the votes are tallied, the "evictee" leaves the house and is interviewed on-camera by the host of the show, usually in front of a live studio audience. The last remaining housemate is declared the winner and receives a substantial sum in prize money, the amount of which has varied widely around the world.

Despite derision from many intellectuals and other critics, the show has been a commercial success around the world. Criticisms typically are based on the ironic aspects of George Orwell's dystopic vision of Nineteen Eighty-Four being consciously aped by producers for public entertainment. More generally, the voyeuristic nature of the show, where contestants volunteer to surrender their privacy in return for minor celebrity status and a comparatively small cash prize, has attracted much scorn.

Nevertheless, we love it regardless.

While any pretences to be a cultural experiment are dubious, reports of the different results of the show around the world have been mildly interesting from a pop-anthropology standpoint; i.e., in Spain, the competitors designed an agreement to achieve they all were nominated automatically and annul then their power of decision inside the process of elimination in the contest. This only happened once, as afterwards, Big Brother modified its rules to prohibit this type of agreement. On the other hand, other versions have involved plotting in the vein of the most cruel soap opera. Some versions have been filled with sex-crazed housemates, whereas others decided to base the conflict within their programs around difficult or romantic personalities, as in Brazil, Mexico, Thailand, Philippines or Spain. With the passing of time, it has been demonstrated that the most successful versions were the ones that emulated a soap opera, whereas the versions where the principal attraction was sex have been eliminated, as in Hungary or Poland. The amount of sex shown on the televised versions varies from country to country depending on censorship rules, with some countries editing out all sex and nudity, and others allowing the show to border on the pornographic.
