Still got BB 2010 to come and a Celebrity BB before the contract officially ends. I'm a little like you can't stand BB and totally fed up with trying to look interested when friends talk about it. Although to be honest not too many have done so this time round - Thank God!
Thank goodness for that, I thought i was the only one! I'm glad it's finally coming to an end, even if there is still one more to go. The point is, after that, never again!

Unfortunately reality TV is the biggest money makers for the channels so I guess Channel 4 will replace it with some other inane programme full of mindless idiots all wanting a get rich quick fame!

hey does anyone remember when they trialed a 'press red' on e4 to switch between big brother and another program?
I don't like the new format either i think they have a huge helping hand with the backing music.

I'm not enjoying the new x-factor format i feel like we barely see any singers in an hour and half period. Also i don't like the fact that they can now sing with a backing tune it can help someone out so much with their voice. I wish they would go back to the old format.
Apparently channel 4 will have 200 hours to fill from losing big brother, a stupidly large amount which will no doubt be filled with crap.

The old X Factor format was definitely better, as you got to see more auditions, more of the good and more of the funny rubbish ones! They seem to be copying Britain's got Talent with the live audience.

The only benefit to the live audience that I could think of was when that weird skinny scary looking guy was singing (badly) and the crowd started chanting "OFF OFF OFF" and he thought they meant his top!
Too funny!
