BOCfan Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 (edited) Thank fuck! Hated this programme since day one. I know it has its fans, but I'm glad that the public interest in this is finally dropping off, so that it can be cancelled. It sounds like good news for C4's output as well, with them pouring money into new drama's etc. Some other station may end up pciking it up, but heopfully that's it gone from council TV.

Guest Iain C Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Knowing C4 I wouldn't bet on any decent new programming replacing it, just more lowest-common-denominator Skins and Shameless rubbish.

That would be a shame if that were to happen. If they're serious about it, there's a real opportunity here for C4 to steer away from this kind of trash and make the kind of innovative programming that they used to.

Guest Stoppit Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I think the worst thing about Big Brother is that now it's been around for a decade, children are growing up watching it without any knowledge of a pre-Big Brother world, and seeing it as an acceptable level of entertainment.

Guest ezkerraldean Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 people took it too seriously. i'd have happily watched it to laugh at the contestans and their general chaviness/retardedness.
