Addiction for Big Brother


What have i been up to these few months? Well busy downloading the popular Big Brother UK daily episodes online... :) As for my progress...too slow i would say as i still have a few more episodes to go but UK has ended it's Big Brother Season 8 already last month.


I watched this reality tv show when i was studying in Australia way back and since then, have been addicted to it. Too bad they don't have such things in Malaysia. I am sure this won't happen here in Malaysia!!! kekkeke


For those of you who doesn't know a hack about it....well....here's the intro:


Big Brother is the biggest reality show on TV. Take a handful of assorted Housemates, lock them into a sensory-bending House and they are isolated from the outside world. No phones, newspapers, radios or televisions. No contact with loved ones. They are all alone.... except for the millions of viewers watching them! and let Big Brother make the rules and you’ve got the recipe for one of the most talked about shows in TV history.


Everything the housemates do is recorded and broadcasted on television and the internet, and even sent through text messages to mobile phones. They can't eat, sleep, fart, kiss, bath or cry without the entire nation knowing. And judging them!


Essentially, Big Brother is a competition – one Housemate leaves the house each week by a process of Housemate nomination and public voting – until the final week. Then a public vote picks a winner who bags a fantastic one hundred thousand pounds cash prize in UK and AUD25,000 in Australia. Good heh??


Imagine....staying in a house with camera's everywhere..nothing you can hide. How's that sound? Definately a no no for me but it's fun watching.


Each week the Housemates are given a shopping budget to buy their necessities – but this can swell or dwindle depending on how they do in the weekly Tasks. And no-one – not the Housemates, not the public, not even Big Brother – can predict what’s going to happen in the House. And that is what Big Brother is all about.
