are there other people in the world that hate (with a passion) all the self gratifying reality crap on tele?

The 'I'm a pop factor brother idol, get me out of having any talent on ice' thing just makes my pi$$ boil :x :x

My sister among many others is raving on about Britains Got Talent, and she cant understand why A)I just dont get it B)****ing hate it

Have your dreams and ambitions people, but not on my tele!

    It is impossible to express in words my dislike for reality TV and all that is associated with it.

    The fact that Big Brother will actually make the nations newspapers on a daily basis astounds me.

    My blood pressure is rising.....

    Im out.... I cant write about this any longer... :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

    It's not just the reality TV that boils my pi55, it's this total infatuation with Z list Celebrities willing to do absolutely ANYTHING in a pathetic attempt to grab some column inches in Heat. Or worse than that, People who are married to/ going out with Famous people who are considered to be famous by proxy. I swear to god, if I am able to name more than 3-4 of the people on these "Celebrity" programmes, I am shocked.
    And don't even get me started on the total fuckwits they find hiding under a rock to appear on shows like Big Brother.
    It's ALL F**KING YEAR, Just as one finishes, another pops up in its place.

    In all fairness though, it does give me an excuse to go off for a ride or vanish to the garage to tinker with my toys and at the same time be able to make out like it's ME doing HER a favour by giving her a bit of piece to watch her programmes :D

    I have to actually leave the room when any of that pap is on, it epitomises everything that's wrong with the world.

    Don't even get me started on all this 'reality' type tv :evil:

    It's all utter mind rotting shite, even most of the 'funny' auditions are scripted by Simon Cowell & Co. Nothing is ever what it seems on TV.

    I really can't comprehend why anyone would like it, maybe if you're an OAP with nothing else better to do then fair enough for a bit of background noise (no disrespect to anyone in this category btw) but to actually choose to waste your life watching other people make fools of themselves is way beyond me.

    It depresses me, it really does.

    I have a theory on this. My 12 year old daughter watches this stuff, now she's in top groups at school, is well balanced and has a wicked sense of humour, BUT all of her friends watch it , so if she doesn't she gets left out of all the gossip and feels alienated. I suspect it's the same with some of the grown-ups, everyone's talking about "did you see on telly last night?" at work and they have nothing to contribute.

    It's a conspiracy to keep folk talking about the unimportant things in life and not talking about the REAL issues, Orwell was bloody right I tell ya!

    :lol: Thank god i'm not alone.

    Robmanic - If someone asks me 'did you see whatever last night', i actually take a great deal of pride telling them they need to get a life, and stop wasting away watching mindless garbage

    How can anyone actually make time to sit down and watch this stuff. It just beggers belief.

    I think reality TV is a waste of time.

    My wife thinks Internet forums are a waste of time.
