To admit I am addicted to Geordie Shore?

I've always thought it was utter rubbish and have never watched it until very recently when dd1 wanted to and I said I'd have to check it out first. There's no way she is watching it, it glamorises drinking and promiscuous sex.

I am now pretty much addicted Blush and have found myself watching all 8 seasons either on tv or online in secret!

I'm not really sure why I like it as I don't like drinking or dancing which is what they spend most of their time doing when they're not having sex. There's just something about it! It's really addictive and a bit of light relief!

I can't even say I am reliving my youth as I didn't go and get drunk every night then either! And no I definitely don't want to be them, I would not enjoy getting drunk every night and kissing random blokes!Hmm

It's a bit of a secret pleasure.

The 9th season starts in October and I can't wait!

Anyone else a not so secret addict? I name changed for this so dp doesn't see it Blush

Gudgy that's not Joss!

I went off Ex On The Beach, it got very boring.

I loved Are You The One. It reminded me of a show years ago, Hotel Love or some such thing.

An American show. It was so good!

Vicki isn't with Joss anymore, she's with some ex ice hockey player now.

So easily led...I have bought Vickys biography today, and now I am downloading that TV show. I also follow Vicky on Instagram, and keep getting tempted to buy the clothes she's promoting!

I would totally go there with Scotty T, he's gonna make someone a lovely boyfriend. I can see him being very loyal, like a big overgrown puppy. I fancy Aaron quite a bit too, until he talks. Gaz and Kyle are a no, and I get the feeling that James is the type to shag in front of the mirror, looking at his hair while he's doing it. He won't break out a sweat.

It's my guilty pleasure too, I never watch any reality tv or soaps and have no idea why I watched it or continued watching it.. I just know I love it. It's weird.

CatsCantTwerk · 26/09/2014 13:23

Thank You to whoever it was who suggested 'Are You The one'. I have just finished watching it, it had me hooked....soooo... What next? Grin

ChristinaYang · 26/09/2014 14:34

I must check out this "You are the one". I love GS too, much to my husbands disgust. I love all reality cheesy TV, especially american ones, it's my guilty pleasure.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is great!

ChristinaYang · 26/09/2014 14:35

*"Are you the one" rather lol

NickiFury · 26/09/2014 14:36

Think that was me who recommended AYTO Smile. What did you think of Shanley? She was my favourite, a screamy, aggressive cowbag but television gold!

CatsCantTwerk · 26/09/2014 14:50

Shanley and chris T were great, I hated Kayla, That girl had some real issues going on! I started off liking JJ but in the end he really did show his true colours when it was the reunion. And awww to Amber and Ethan.

I've just started ex on the beach now, on episode 2, I will check back in once completed Grin

NickiFury · 26/09/2014 14:53

Wasn't Chris Scali an absolute twat? He was so unattractive and annoying.

Loved Shanley and Chris T. I was gutted for her when you know what happened (won't say because of spoilers).

chipshop · 26/09/2014 15:04

Random fact: I met Ross from Ex on the Beach last night. He was wearing a ridiculous hat.

I love Geordie Shore! Vicky is just too funny, deffo my fave. I like Scott & Holly. Agree Charlotte used to be so sparky and now just seems subdued and unhappy. Maybe the split will revive her.

Gary is just an idiot, treats women as alien objects and has huge double standards when it comes to his friends.

Can't stand James either, I think he hates women. And he thinks so much of himself. White Kate seems dull as.

SeaGshore · 26/09/2014 19:16

If you haven't read Vicky's book you definitely should! It was one of the best reads I've had in years, I loved it! :)
I really hope she does an audio version of her book at some point, I would listen to it all again to hear her narrating it (I love her bits on GS).

Debating whether to buy Holly's as I'm not a massive fan. She has grown on me a lot the past few years but I'm not sure I love her enough to read her book! Anyone else buying it?

Love love love GS it is the total antithesis of my usual BBC4 viewing.

I saw marnie when I was in Newcastle a few weeks ago. A couple asked her for a pic in the street and she was really nice and obliging so a thumbs up from me for her Smile
