Mid-day TV which is saturated with the same old shite – house programmes! Aimed at idiots who can’t make their own decisions when looking for somewhere to live, these shows have spawned a new breed of mindless fools who take a bald man and a weirdo’s stupid, space-filling comments seriously. They allow them to select 3 houses of which they choose one to live in. However these houses are blatantly the ones that the estate agents can’t get rid of! What makes it worse is the presenter people aren’t qualified to make that judgement in the first place! To add insult to injury the entire thing is scripted really badly and none of the ‘contestants’ can deliver a line anyway. Then there are the cut scenes which can involve anything from the contestants dancing the waltz (seriously!) to Benny Hill style chase scenes.
Secondly, what kind of person applies for programmes of this genre? The ones who daren’t apply for Big Brother, or the ones who think they actually wont look stupid (understatement of the year)?
Don’t think I’ve forgotten about the antique style programmes! What does Jennie Bond know about antiques… well except the queen? I blame David Dickinson! Although he realised when things were going a bit too far and got out while the cash was good.
What makes it all so bad is I can’t tear myself away from it!!!!!!!!!!!!
