As you can tell, I loath the prog. Out of interest, anyone watch it or am I the only one here who’d rather watch end to end party political broadcasts….. (smae goes for X-Factor, Celeb Come Dancing etc…)

I always thought that show should have been called ‘Make Me a Celebrity or I’m Out of Here’ – or better still, never made at all.

My you flatter them I’d not puit them above “Z”.
** You are right unless ofcourse you use “D” as a code for Don’t know, Don’t care,Don’t remember**
I don’t watch these shows as has been said they are all samey, tedious, dumbing down TV. Thing is people watch them and ring the premium numbers and make the companies loads-a-money!
I miss the likes of QED and other such programmes…
I have a theory that people fit into 3 Catagories when it comes to such shows,
1)Those who WIIL NOT watch it no matter what, They understand its cheap,tastless,Dumb, Insulting to any free thinking individual and really exploiting with premium rate calls etc.
2)Those who understand the above, But WILL watch anyway because they can’t really find anything else to watch.
3)Those who WILL watch and be pretty much addicted or brainwashed by it.
1 and 2 would be stimulated by decent TV show proper drama’s, Proper Comedies etc, 3 would probably get hooked on some other shows if reality ones were not there.
I hope eventually that there will be a backlash against such TV and the TV Bosses will be forced into investing in better quality shows, Until then i guess my DVD player will see a lot more action.

I barely watch TV these days anyway – the odd film (thank you, Channel 4!), bit of comedy (Buzzcocks), maybe the odd doco. That’s about it! :rolleyes:

they supposed to be in the jungle right.. so where are all the snakes, scorpians, spiders, and the likes. my back garden is more of a jungle.. it has to be one of the most piontless tv shows ever made.
why dont they dump the has-beens “sorry i mean celebs” in the middle of the Amazon rain forest and say ok you are on your own, see you in 2 months time.. i thought big brother was bad but IM A HAS-BEEN GET ME OUT OF THIS FAKE JUNGLE takes the biscuit..
You have a point there – it’d be a lot more entertaining with, say, a 30ft anaconda lurking nearby…! :diablo:
So long as Myleene Klass didn’t get eaten. Well, maybe just her clothes…! :diablo:

“D” list so called celebrities, Who crave a bit more fame
The only reason David Gest is any kind of “celebrity” is because he married Liza Minelli…
I’d certainly never heard of him before that!

I Really hate most of whats on TV lately, We got so many of these “Reality” shows either with “D” list so called celebrities, Who crave a bit more fame or the flip side, Is the so called “Normal public” who will do anything to be famous, It makes me cringe to see such rubbish on TV, What happened to the days where we made some of the best Drama’s, Sit Coms, Shows that were true family viewing.
Its cheap television and shows how lazy TV companies have got and it makes me sad to think British TV has gone this way, Surely the bubble must burst on these shows soon, I watch more DVDs these days than any TV.

I’d rather they made quality programmes instead! :rolleyes:

Not me.
Caught half an hour of the first series. That was quite enough for me
