I have watched a few episodes each of the seasons it has been on. My little sister is a big Big Brother fan so each season I'll be watching television with her and get to see the controlled madness

must admit i watched a bit while still in the UK,but the preveiws ive seen
of the US shows do not appeal to me at all.Too many wannabes

I hate to admit it ... but I have been watching this season. Willie seemed like quite a handful, I'm glad he's gone. Missing the ex-playboy playmate though!

The whole Hantz family (at least the 3 we've seen on TV) are crazy! When the season started I didn't catch the resemblance but my wife did. All I said was "that guy looks like he'd beat you up!"
Too bad all the eye candy is getting voted out of the house.

I have found these so-called "realism" shows or whatever non discriptive title that they use for them,to be mediocre and tasteless at the best of times.I haven't watched very much of any of them,mainly because there are programs on TV that are educational,intelligent and thought provoking while these "Real life" shows fits neither of these catagories.I hope that this doesn't offend anyone but I find that these shows are mainly aimed towards the hopelessly obtuse and people with any modicum of grey matter would quickly change channels and seek out a program with a more mentally stimulating format.Granted I enjoy 'some" uneducational shows such as "House","Crime Scene","Coronation Street" and others that don't insult the intelligence of the listener but I'd rather occupy my mind rather than fill it with trivial,cerebral flatulence.

The object of my obsession, I feel it coming again.
Heavy melancholy coming up this weekend when I plug the Strat.

FIGHT!

Not really surprised. I kind of wanted Ian to win but I also wanted Dan to win because he controlled the house. He told everyone what they wanted to hear and they ate it up. He played dirty, but he played the best.

I watch this show for entertainment, not education. I have a busy enough life that I like to take a mental break a couple times a week. In the end it is just a game show.

I don't watch television in the broader sense. I don't have cable. I don't have a dish. I don't have an antena. Hell, I don't even have Netflix. I do have a nice TV and a Bluray player for the occasional movie night. I got a dish in the winter of 2010 when the Vancouver Olympics were on and after they were over I decided to keep it for a while and see what I had been missing all those years. Turns out I wasn't missing anything except a zillion commercials. I was hardly ever watching it because of all the commercials. When you are used to zero commercials in your TV viewing experience you develop an extremely low tollerance for them. The iPhone has a stopwatch-timer app on it which you can stop and start without resetting. I used it to time how much commercial time I was watching. I discovered the average half hour program had 13 minutes of commercials and only 17 minutes of program. I called the dish company and cancelled. I'm not going to spent almost a full half of my evening leisure time allowing companies that don't interest me opportunities to try to sell me their garbage just so I can watch some stupid sit-com that isn't even funny.

Oh, hey. This is my milestone post. Got me another pick. Cool.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

I've never been able to watch shows like these. If "Survivor" was some sort of desert isle deathmatch and the winner and sole survivor too home the cash I'd watch it. That'd be awesome. Like take a bunch of people drop them on some remote unsettled island rigged with cameras and a sat feed with only the clothes on their backs and see who makes it. That'd be entertainment.

You need to watch The Hunger Games or The Running Man.

My girl had me watch The Hunger Games and I've definitely seen The Running Man. I really would never want to see those things come to fruition as generally they are based of some elite ruling class enforcing participation. However, the purely bloodthirsty pursuit of wealth and survival on a purely voluntary basis is intriguing.

I thought it was a pretty good season. It was a toss up for me between Dan or Ian since they both played really good games. I leaned towards Dan a bit personally since his whole funeral gag really turned things around for him. I watch on a DVR so commercials are not an issue.
