Big brother: Just another lame piece of garbage!

Whoever said that Big Brother is a reflection of our attitude: YOU ARE WRONG! PBB is just another fancy term and poor excuse for a talent search. The only difference is that they try to put some reality flavor and twists into it but the agendas of the producers and Direk Lauren(who is a poor man's Simon Cowell in SCQ) are the same which is to make artists out of the contestants. So enavea16, I understand why you're defending Big Brother. It's because you got hooked into it. Usually when you get addicted to something, you are blinded and are ignorant of its weaknesses.

I heard Big Brother sucks in other countries but it gets lamer here in the Philippines. Did you notice all house mates were aged 32 below with Racquel being the eldest. Why were there no 40 year old people? Because it's a damn talent search! And how much crappier is it that everyone is romantically linked to one another? This country loves making rumors about untrue relationships. I knew this sh*t would happen. This ain't a mental game nor an experiment to test how an individual can stand 100 days without anything in a beautiful house! Former President Joseph Estrada's house arrest is even harder! It's hard to be without your family and all types technology but please don't overrate this bull sh*T! Its not hard to the point that it's unbearable! You get to meet new friends, you eat good food and you play the stupid "fun" games of Big Brother(who thinks he is God!). This also ain't a reflection of yourself because this whole game is one big charade! How can it reflect you when almost everyone has to pretend to be someone else so that when eviction night comes the dexter have sympathy? When you express a bit of how you feel, then people think you're a blabber mouth! The real tough reality shows are Survivor and Amazing Race where you are really stripped of everything and down on your luck! Can you beat that? Big Brother sucks already and the fact that we Filipinized it is worse! The stupid dancing, "love" teams, too much censorship(just because of a kissing scene MTRCB suspends the damn show). Just because this show is a hit in the Philippines, doesn't mean it always gets good reviews as this show never lives up to all the over hyping!
