This Big Brother thing has started again and whenever I look at the contestants roster, I can't help but feel that these are directionless youths who have nothing better to do than go on some show where you just chill out. Who else who has finished their studies would have 3 months free to give away to some reality show? This time around they have even stooped as low as to have strippers contesting for the prize! The contestants then get back to floundering around (mostly in the media industry) after their reality gig is up. This thing adds no value! Which advertisers can even pay for ads on this show? It's such a random audience profile! Just shut it down, it's such a bad idea, pu!

No he is not. But it will make me a pudding head to pay money, a lot of money, to contribute to that 16m shillings.

Big Brother is a waste of time to me. The difference between successful people and wannabes is how they spend their time. Everyone has 24 hours per day - unrecoverable. How do you spend your day? Big Brother is a total waste.

Most reality shows are games that involve strategy.. i am not a big fun of big brother but i do watch survivor and i would give my 39 days to see if i can make it to the final 3..Plus the Mill makes it a worth ride.. its like gambling or buying stock... u might just hit the jackpot.
If i showed you where i live, you would think that i was hiding.

Survivor, Amazing Race and the like have a challenge aspect to them, so it's understandable why someone would subscribe to that. But Big Brother is just many people chilling out on a half acre plot, surely!

Are you serious?

I wouldn't be caught dead watching that crap but I have to admit that most people btn ages 10 - 25 love it, the winner gets to take home 16M.
And it is an advertisers heaven, potential audience throughout Africa!! That's why coke are in it

l'd rather be caught shouting & cheering wildly wrestling superstars as they beat the living-day-lights out from each other. I mean... atleast with WWE u can use some of these moves for self-defence purposes, e.g tombstombing someone who's trying to forcefully aquire what is rightfully ur's... hehehe.

It cant be worse garbage than the soaps brought by our TV stations. At least in BBA its real people (read losers with lots of make up on) living real life (albeit on half an acre of plotsmile ) and there is a price at the end of it. The soaps on the other hand are so fake, so disgusting and so misleading that I wonder why they were licensed in the first place. But as you will notice, the three major TV stations in Kenya will run at least 3 soaps at a go. My theory is that most people live in fantasy world and like to be lied to!Think

I hate the Mexican soaps (apparently they are much cheaper than American programs - for obvious reasons) that seem to be the new fad but Big Brother is definitely worse garbage than the soaps in my book. There is no real life there. Just bad ACTING. Someone once said "'Reality' TV is just an excuse for bad acting!". Can't put it any better.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
