I only watched it because I knew someone on there, but I really enjoyed the series and I am sorry I missed the earlier ones. The show motivated me and my missus to get off our arses and we both lost 5kg+. Where is the bad?
TV used to be entertainment for the public paid for by advertisers. Now it's cheap shit on every channel that has very little entertainment value, and tries to get us to fund it by SMS. No thanks.
People call me crazy for riding BMX at my age. But I'm fitter than ever, spend a good number of hours with my kids and have a social life through other members of that club. Sure it takes up my time and costs a bit, but I have a life worth living and don't need to resort to sitting in a lounge, watching people sitting in a lounge (BB). My money keeps me happy, rather than funds someone elses prize.
I know BL did not have TXT voting, and it's good that people got off their arse and did something about their weight problem. But, as other members in here have proved, it is possible without removing decent programming on national television.
