I thought my priorities were correct, I am more worried about the members that werent logged on...:D:D
Ah, that reminds me to make a big brother WW project - a plywood box to encase the tube in. Glue, screw, nail, rope...
At least it will help to boost ABC's and SBS's rating at 7pm. No way in hell I'll be watching that tripe:mad:. I'm not huge on this kkind of reality TV. I didn't mind the biggest loser but more for the fact that I am currently trying to lose weight. Bigest loser had a reason and I think that it has made a difference to a lot of people but BB is just utter drivel.
I've a twinge of concern for those who say "won't be watching that crap" but know the time & channel(s) :rolleyes: :D
Fair go Skew!!
I admit I read the TV guide each week especially paying attention to ABC and SBS lately. There are some fantastic programs on them and with little advertising you never hear about them.
I also have a daughter that is at that age (8) where all this big hype tv is all the talk between her and her friends. Every night "Can we watch.........cause (insert friends name) watches it!!"
We were watching Rolf paint the Queen.Quote:

Reality TV?? I don't think so. Reality is sitting in front of a monitor for four or five hours a day typing messages to other forum members. Do you really want to watch a show about that?Quote:

Ah, yes. The kidleys, TV Guides on legs, major factors in the ratings. Not a problem here, thankfully.Quote:

Watched ABC news then Iron Maiden's Visions of the Beast till MBGitW released the idiot box to me so I can read all the posts for today . . . :)

I'd rather hang around the forum than watch big brother or any of the so-called reality tv (yeah the ones where they have to stage the real events and have outsiders interfere to make it interesting) even if all we are doing is debating reputation points, purple circles and tree-hugging festivals at maleney.
we call it "why bother" in our house. get foxtel and ya dont have to worry bout normal tele any more. miss the v8's though!:cool:

Foxtel? Yup All those lovely channels, filled with just as many adverts, except these ones you pay for. When it's all boiled down, all you're getting is more channels to ignore. I gotta agree about the V8's too. :(
"Why bother"?? How appropriate! :D:D
I must say - this year they are all good looking youngin's, not a feral amongst them. I look forward to the late night booby show...
as per anything - if oyu dont like to watch - dont. I dont watch it either but hey - big deal, it cant be worse than rolf painting the queen of england or AFL...
gretels looking a bit tired though...
Ahh, we've finally found the demographic (however you spell the damned word) they're aiming at. How do you do the ratings form Zed? Send in the empty banana skins? :DQuote:

Well on SBS the rock smashing ceiling painter was pretty good, and the Amazon rainforest after it was even better.
Twas pretty good wasn't it. Love the temper tantrums. Wonder what they were like in real life.Quote:

daddles you should write an essay on why big brother causes depression. Maybe you have to be depressed to watch it in the first place?
TV means you get less time in the shed.

Unless you put the tv in the shed, then you get more shed time :pQuote:

We are taking action and pissing in every small hole we can find in walls!
Harry,
they caught a perve up our way a while back, he actually climbed down into the tank of composting toilets at a national park and spent hours crouching down there in the sewage so he could use a camera and a mirror to take pictures of girl's backsides!:eek:
