Any Big Brother fans?

I’ve watched it in the past, but it became very “samey” and so it was a relief when it was finally pulled. I won’t be watching the re-runs.

I loved the first 3-4 series when it was screened 24/7 and was much more of a social experiment. I made loads of lovely friends following the threads, in particular the WHATM thread (What's happening at the moment) when we would take turns to write it up as it happened. As soon as they started to recruit 'wannabees', it became tedious. Many of us stuck with it only because we enjoyed chatting to each other. Then,they cut right back on the viewing time and it started to sound scripted and I never watched it again.Just like the various offshoots from Shopping Telly,groups splintered, reformed, fell out.I still have half a dozen friends from that time. Would I watch it again? No, I'd rather remember the original episodes fondly.
