    Can this be the last season please? We could all very much do without this pile of trash they call a television show.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,440 ✭✭✭Dizzyblabla


    and what on earth would you all do for the summer?? ya ya, all these people saying bomb it, but you only know it's crap cause you watch it! - soo much fun to see people in rotten situations - and definately something to do when there's nothing else to do!

    Keep it up, but maybe put "normal" people in there.. why do they all have to have quirks?

    My thoughts exactly! I enjoy it anyway! - I just hope there's more big screaming matches - far more interesting than my life anyway!

    I think we should let JJ do that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,945 ✭✭✭Anima


    Thats all well and good but it takes over E4 for most of the day which is annoying to say the least.

    Yes. I want Friends on at 8! Not 6 people walking around a house talking about their problems all the time!

    E4 doesn't show anything but ads for most of the day anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,440 ✭✭✭Dizzyblabla


    As long as they still put on the OC and Smallville I don't mind!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,132 ✭✭✭Dinner


    I vote JJ goes away. Anyone who doesnt like BB shouldnt be in the BB forum if they cant control themselves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,194 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Heh.. that's a pretty conclusive poll!

    For a 'Big Brother' forum.. you're not very supportive!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,058 ✭✭✭JJ


    HA HA HA! I shall never go away.

    Dissenting opinions should always be allowed.

    I could think of 1,000,000 things that are better to do during the summer than watch BB.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,058 ✭✭✭JJ


    I certainly plan not to watch it. Why the rest of the world does not follow this example is a complete mystery.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,335 ✭✭✭rugbug86


    well u go think of them and let us watch our show


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    and what on earth would you all do for the summer??

    things to do in the summer instead of watching big brother

    lets see

    i could go to work
    maybe i could go out with friends
    i could rip my eyes out
    i could go to the seaside
    i could watch decent television

    you see there is lots to do


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,264 ✭✭✭JBoyle4eva


    Ok, to avoid clogging up of the fourm wiht "I ahte x housemate"
    "oh yeah, I love x hm but can't stand y hm"

    OR Just anything negative about BB, I'd be really happy if you could spill it out on this fourm. We did have two threads by "JJ" who said he hated BB but I would like to point out, from this moment, all boarders who do not post negatively on this thread but on a new thread will be warned with a "Three-Strike" warning approach!

    God, no peace this year. My mam and sister will be watching this allll day.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,954 ✭✭✭✭Larianne


    Think this is the last Big Brother as C4 only got the rights for it for 6 years... sumthing like that. But it was popular last year so they may keep it goin!

    6 years, that's 4 away from 10! :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,466 ✭✭✭Blisterman


    Its ridiculous that people watch this. At least on survivor or any of those other TV shows, people have to do interesting tasks, and its not on 24 hours a day. I really don't see the appeal of it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,878 ✭✭✭bush


    Ill never understand why people go into a big brother forum and complain about it. You may think its sad to look at big brother but its even sadder to go into a big brother dedicated forum and talk about something you hate. I doubt it happens in other forums either. I doubt people go into the soccer forum and complain about it being ****e


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,058 ✭✭✭JJ


    I shall complain on here if I like. And it happens on all kinds forums that people talk about how much they do not like the subject of the forum.

    That would be glorious news if C4 didn't renew the contract and this was the last Big Brother.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,101 ✭✭✭Kingsize


    jeesus they really are scraping the fukkin barrel with BIG Brother even yob queen davina mccall looks like shes going through the motions.
    Theres an obvoius Flaw in the way this show is orchestrated- people seem to be chosen based on what stereotype they represent /how they'll interact with others.
    Consequently we get a group of fake ass self obsessed w-ankers in the house instead of a genuine cross section of society.
    Why not just choose people at random from the electoral register & see if they wanna be contestants methinks it would make for better viewing .

    So if someone has a negative opinion on a particular subject they should just keep quiet and never be aloud to speak their mind then? That's great that is.

    If people hate BB then they should certainly say so. In fact, they should be encouraged to do so as the complaints are far more interesting than the show.

    I won't be watching BB as it's a steaming pile of donkey poo, but I did see some of the opening night as I was at someone else's house and they had it on. I noticed that this years bunch of freaks, morons and psychos are the biggest bunch of freaks, morons and psychos that the show has ever had.

    How anyone could find this entertaining is beyond me. Also, I read in the papers about how some of the contestants are being described as sexy (like Michelle last year who was about as sexy as Klingon Targ) and had to laugh. Just because some ditz has big tits does not mean she is sexy.

    This show should go down in history as TV's darkest hour. It's lowest common denominator TV, and "entertainment" at it's worst.

    Aah, feel better now after getting that off my chest. :)

    You stupid dick i hate people like you, you dont like something on tv so you complain about it, last time i looked there was sh1t loads of channels so just change the channel, obviously big brother has a following (i dont watch it) or else there wont be another season. Stupid people :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    jesus christ, this is the thread for complaining about big brother.
    you lot complain about people going into the big brother section to complain then ye do the very same on this thread

    Im not saying they should keep quiet about it but whats the point in going into the big brother forum if you dont like it. Thats like me going over to the comic forum and posting a thread saying DIE COMICS DIE I HATE COMICS. Could you not just go into a forum that you have an interest in. Ill never understand why people bang on about how much they hate big brother, if you dont like dont watch, simple as that.

    You don't watch big brother and you hate complainers. Yet you're in the big brother forum, complaining about people who complain about things they don't like. :rolleyes:

    I'm sure I'll not be alone in hating people like you.

    If only it were that simple. BB rearranges the schedule of two channels and has a daily appearance on most newspapers (all be it mainly the tabloids). It gets almost daily mention on radio stations aswell as various other TV shows. Plus people will always talk about it so it's virtually impossible to avoid. Hence my desire to see it end.

    Well I could say the same about soccer but I dont. I think its a load of bollocks and its on for most of the year, on the radio, in the newspapers and my friends have pointless arguments about it but I dont bang on about how much I think its ****e and that it should end posting polls in a soccer forum where its abvious people like it.
    Get over it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 631 ✭✭✭Glipmac


    it is not just big bro thats awful they are all kack none of the reality shows are orignal now they are all the same *boring*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,878 ✭✭✭bush


    I couldnt be arsed with any other reality programs really. Big brother is always funny though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,314 ✭✭✭Talliesin


    Oh FFS!

    I had managed, through a clever regime of never watching the television during the summer ever to not even know that this thing had started again. Of course it took a bit of luck, I was bombarded with it on other years that I hadn't watched television, but so far I had managed.

    And then they put an Irish Witch on it and the bloody Pagan lists are full of this and whining about whether or not she portrays the community well. Really, why the **** should we care. What's the worse that can happen? She's hardly going to create such a bad impression that BB watchers are going to extract their backsides from their sofas to do anything about it anyway.

    Oh no. If she portrays the Craft negatively people with no lives will throw their remote controls at us. Panic!

    It used to be like that in the soccer forum until it changed so you need to request post access. There will always be people who don't like something about certain subjects. Big brother (and reality TV in general) has far more haters and far less supporters than something like soccer which is why so many feel the need to vent their rage and voice their opinion on it.

    Get over yourself.

    I would have to say that Big Brother is the worst program I have ever watched in my life it is really repetitive. I feel it should have only been on for on season and be cancelled. Never put on TV ever again.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 12,325 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kingp35


    It is a sad sad person who watches this utter horse manure. I mean let me get this straight. People stay in at night to sit in their house watching other people sitting in a house. Have you no life?? Do you not like going out and having fun? Or why dont you watch something a little more exciting like watching paint dry!!

    I have to laugh at people who watch this rubbish what sort of world do we live in when watching people talking is considered entertainment. Its so ridiculous it makes me cringe. Take it off the TV before evryone just turns into an utterly boring sad ass please!!

    Ill gladly bomb the place!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 531 ✭✭✭juno75


    bomb,kill ,destroy,mame,death,pestalence, desise,bunker buster, rat poision

    are just a few solutions to the big brother question.

    GOD I HATE IT

    I hate it becasue I lived with a girl who just sat thier ALL FEKKIN DAY watching the cr@p. And as said the muck is impossible to avoid. It seeps into every part of modern exsistance.
    Still, makes me feel very clever in a when ever I stumble onto the bunch of crettins or folks talking about said crettins. God Im feeling smug in a warm way.

    Aviod like Rabies


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14 feliwilli


    What i really hate is this poor excuse for an entaertaining tv show, is that it take up all of E4, and nothing else good, i.e. fraisier or 6 feet under. Something that is actually ENTERTAINING :mad:

    theres bugger all on e4 anyways only four hours of friends re-runs and stuff thats on channel 4 anyways. at least with bb e4 is showing stuff that hasnt been seen on channel4


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,713 ✭✭✭✭jor el


    But a lot of people don't have Channel 4, so E4 is the only opportunity to see shows like Smallville, Six feet under and so on. But not when BB takes over.

    I liked bigbrother on that episode of Doctor Who two weeks ago much better. Vaporise them as they leave the house. The winner gets to live. Class. Now that I'd pay to see.

    They signed up for 2 more years with Endemol. Imagine - 2 more years worth of complaints! :D;)

    I watch the show and did like it up till BB3. Its seriuosly gone downhill and this year is the worst. I cant stop watching it though. :rolleyes:

    Really? I dont think they'll be able to milk it for 2 more years. They'd want to have some pretty good tricks up their sleeves.

    Ah. No. Access requests were introduced for the soccer forum because too many threads were descending into Arsenal v. Man Utd frenzied flame wars.

    Before this was introduced I had never ONCE seen a post, never mind a thread, from someone whos main purpose was simply to complain about how much they hate soccer, not even as a troll. The person would have been rightly laughed out of the forum. I'm sure there are a lot people out there who hate soccer, yet they did'nt come in and start whining about it on the soccer forum out of respect for the genuine fans who post there. The same should apply to any forum on boards.
