Am I the only one .......
 

:( Am I the only one out there who is sick to death of 'reality' TV shows????
Especially those like Big Brother and I'm A Celebrity etc.........I can't bear to watch people who have inflated opinions about themselves. I would love to see some really good sitcoms or a good drama series. £110 to watch the kind of drivel that is being served up by all the channels......(though I know that the two I have quoted are both on the commercial channels) seems just a bit steep.

OK.......whingeing session over!;)

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

Normally I might agree with you but this series of "Celebrity" has just been soooooo funny with Natalie "I can't do it, I can't do it! Oooh! I touched a tree!"

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

Oh Noooooooo Willow......she is such a sad wimp....and I only know that because I inadvertently saw a bit of the show while I was waiting for the kettle to boil to make a cuppa......I am so glad I have my PC......I would go mad otherwise.

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

I inadvertantly caught about half an hour of it a couple of nights ago. That bandana does nothing for Natalie, it makes her look like Dobby from Harry Potter. I really don't see the attraction in watching a bunch of 'Z-list' has beens trying to revive their careers by eating bugs and not having a decent wash for a fortnight.:rolleyes:
Don't get me started on Big Brother. There's nothing more boring than being sat in, watching people being sat in. I thank my lucky stars that I have a life and don't need to watch this dross..:D

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

I think that those two smug little presenters, Ant and Dec, should be forced to demonstrate EVERYTHING the contestants have to do before they expect them to do it.

Make THEM eat slugs and jump into tanks full of snakes.

That will soon wipe the self satisfied grins off their faces.

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

It is not just the commercial channels that are pouring out this drivel. On Saturday tea-time, there was a show on the Beeb which was a karaoke competition for the tone deaf. I fail to see how one of the other channels can stoop lower than this. It was painful and embarrassing to watch. :o :(

Apologies, Margaret, for using the volume control, on your quote. :D

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

With you all the way Margaret..........

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

Hear hear, couldn't agree more. I have better things to do with my time than tune in to what is rapidly becoming a form of Freak Show.

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

Sounds like Eastenders to me :p

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

Thank goodness there are a few of us.......I thought I was alone.
And it is OK A-B, don't mind you turning down the volume.......as I said I thought I was alone

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

Is`nt the tv licence going up to £126?......sorry about that, there goes my karma!!

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

You could be right on that one Mick....I have just paid mine though so until next November I won't worry about it

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

I think their all great hehehehe

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

ye i agree smiffy, there good

Re: Am I the only one .......
 

Well Natalie walked out so that's made it far less interesting now. Of course she's a wimp. She's an amazingly unbelievable wimp. I wasn't sure if it was Dobby or Gollum she reminded me of but I think you're right - she's more like Dobby in character as well as appearance.

If she cannot bear to touch things in everyday life which may be dirty and she knows she has a fear of heights what the heck was she doing going in there?


At least reality TV has real (unscripted) situations - and I don't watch soaps at all so that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
