| Celebrity Big Brother Well, that time of the year has come around again where a bunch of washed-up celebs perform a rather worrying portrayal of themselves in front of several dozen cameras for what seems like a hundred-million years for the enjoyment of people who are; a) stupid, or b) complaining about the programme the whole time. Social media will once again play a massive part in the process - I didn't even know it was on until the tweets started rolling in about the creme-de-la-creme of the Z-List, and I will try my best to avoid all of it (unless there is a hilarious cock-up somewhere), and will instead watch from the sidelines as people tweet their disgust and sign up for Facebook groups supporting their "favourites". Although this is the last CBB, I'm not looking forward to the next c.12 weeks of shite that Channel 4 has commissioned that displaces surprisingly few Friends re-runs nowadays. Whilst I still enjoy watching Friends (if for the 18th-19th time), it is quite shocking how the once-flagship show for the network is relegated to behind another repeat of a 90's sitcom. I was never a fan of the show, although the first series did pique my interest all those years ago, and cannot wait to see it be removed from the airwaves... ...more than likely to be resurrected in a few years time to re-energise and milk some more cash out of a dying format. Predictable, but a horrific image of the future all the same. This post has 1484 characters, and was posted by @stevefarnworth You must be signed in to comment |
