If I can convince just one BIG BROTHER viewer that its pointless and dumb to watch

[Twiglett]

a bunch of nonentities make tits of themselves on television

and get them to agree to not watch this dire appalling crap

or if I can convince 2 of you not to frickin' post about it because its so feckin' dull

then

my night will probably be complete

im watching it tonight, but chances are high if dh were home, we wouldnt be

okay, I'll stop posting (but not watching)

but only to complete your night. Well, 50% of it.

i am split because i know it's one thing that's keeping the studios open here. argh

I WANT SOME APPRECIATION godammit!

Ah, Twig. What to do? I've never even watched it ... just been caught out by some news clips and general chit chat. I loathe it more than my toenails (and they're not nice).

I suggest a Big Brother boycott thread, just to keep it down on MN. Have you also heard that the Police have seconded members of their own to watch Big Brother in case there's any racism or violence. We're paying for them to watch Big Brother.

It's good to know that old ladies are safe on the streets, ain't it?

I agree - it is shit.

But....I do watch the celebrity ones

The celebrity ones are even shitter

I'm not watching. Mind you, I start not watching every year and end up dipping in and out and feeling like I've lost ten weeks of my life. NOT THIS YEAR I TELL THEE!

It is popular culture, I will watch this one and then no others until there are only about 5 left and then I will probably watch it occasionally.

Yoghurt is also a popular culture ...

I can't believe that people are still interested in it.

It has made me hate Davina. And I only watched the first one.

people are strange.....

Yes and I like yoghurt occasionally too

Yes, Davina will not be remembered with relish, methinks.

reality tv... I think it's a political conspirancy. No, I don't watch it.

There's a BIG BROTHER thread going on right now, Carmenere!

GO JOIN ... leave us grumps to ourselves.

Before you go, are you watching The Apprentice at the mo? Farking hilarious!!!!

I never hear anything interesting from the people I know that watch any reality TV. They love the fights, the nervous breakdowns, the bullying.

It's horrible. Like some Victorian freak show.

sounds like MN, Duchess

No convincing needed but i'm with you Twiglett!
After watching the last 7 BBs I've decided I'm over it. Couldn't bring myself to watch them go in the house last night as I knew I'd be sucked right in.
It's had it's day IMO.

bunch of airhead bimbo up-their-own arses attention-seeking-pig ignorant -and generally- blardy annoying creatures why on earth would i want to watch them?????
ahem. that's just my opinion though.

mind you i do love the apprentice......

I've grown out of it thankfully

But BB viewers know it's pointless and dumb to watch. So?

I confess to almighty Twiglett,
and to you,
Mumsnet sisters,
that I have sinned through my own fault
in my viewing and in my posting on the BB thread,
in what I have done, (see above)
and in what I have failed to do; (switch it off)
and I ask blessed Mumsnet,
(not a virgin,)
all the angels, huns, and saints,
and you, my Mumsnet sisters,
to pray for me to the saviour of my tapioca brain.

I hereby promise not to post on any more BB threads.

PinkMartini - that's two of us, I reckon Twiglett's night has been made
