to think Love Island is a pile of crap?

I have never watched it. So I don't know for sure. But reality TV? Not for me. I have seen the pictures of the people that are on it. Why can't they have realistic people on there? People with a bit of meat on them, who all have that pursed lip look about them.

I agree with pp, I find all tv shows pretty shit so don’t view this as much different.

Watched it for the first time this time round and very surprised to see a doctor in there, and he’s lovely. I’m quite liking it

How many ways can people say ‘oh my god’!! And about everything! mind numbing

mancmummy1414 · 06/06/2018 00:58

It’s shit. But not as shit as all the endless tensions Facebook and Instagram memes made and shared about it.

mancmummy1414 · 06/06/2018 00:59

Tedious not tensions

catbasilio · 06/06/2018 16:20

How low can we fall.. I refuse to watch.

happymummy12345 · 06/06/2018 16:25

I like it. If you don't that's fine. It's also fine that people do. It's entertainment, not meant to be taken too seriously

popstir · 06/06/2018 16:25

Or @depressed a bit of light hearted relief from all the shit that's going on in the world. Not everyone feels the need to be all doom and gloom all the time. Everyone that watches it knows it's shit but that's what makes it entertaining, if you don't like it watch something else

Bring back the TRUE trashy reality television like Flavor of Love, Bad Girls Club, I love New York etc none of this wishy washy rubbish Grin

RunMummyRun68 · 06/06/2018 16:29

DD's friend was on it.... she did rather well out of it!

Moonkissedlegs · 06/06/2018 16:32

Very clever indeed. A massive infiltration of comments about it on social media and you have a marketing dream. People don’t like feeling like they’re missing out on something so as long as it is banged on about enough in social media and on telly and radio then even people who haven’t watched it will think they SHOULD be watching it.

Yes! And what's more I have totally fallen for it. I'm only watching it really because of FOMO.

Butterflykissess · 06/06/2018 16:35

Who was it runmummy? I really like love island tbh! Everyone I know does

FrustratedTeddyLamp · 06/06/2018 16:38

I'm attempting to watch it to see why its popular but its fucking stupid how much shit people who watch it get. Reminds me of big brother when it was more popular.

BoiledFrog · 06/06/2018 16:56

I have never seen it, I'm not opposed to mindless telly, I loved big brother when it first started. Is this like those pointless scripted efforts?

I'd sooner give myself a footner with a chainsaw than watch any of it again. Tried to watch - lasted about 10 minutes.
