Celebrity Big Brother, the motive is to raise money for charity.
Stop me if I'm wrong, but with all the money they are spending on all the equipment, food, cameras, around the clock people watching the celebs...all that money...why don't they just quit now and give all that money to the charities...
Why do they have to dig up no-name celebrities...THEY AREN'T celebrities!!! They are ppl that disappear and then when you see them you go "Ohhh Them!"
This will probs turn into a crap thread, but I am pissed off that they waste so much time and money housing no-bodies to raise money for charity...and then I have to stumble across it by accident and scream as I see people I would rather not see in they're undies! Argh!

Yeah the whole charity thing is probably just a sham. As if the McDonald Childrens House isn't just a tax right off for Macca's  And even if it isn't why the hell should we donate to that charity? Macca's could probably afford to fund it 10 times over and still make a killing of a profit. Maybe Big Brother decided to make it for 'charity' cause they knew it had a high chance of flopping so know one could bag it out cause it was for 'a good cause' and couldn't be considered a failure. ;D |

and scream as I see people I would rather not see in they're undies! Argh! Well,... I don't mind if one of them wears such apparel, but I digress, yes, I've tried watching this with an open mind but it does seem to be one giant advertisement for McDonalds and associates. IT'S FOR CHARITY! Oh how could I forgot? They remind you every five seconds of the show. Hmm. |

maybe it's because we don't have channel 10 where i live, hence no big brother, but i find it hilarious and strangely entertaining. and i'm loving the rivalry between kimberly and imogen (no, she isn't *that* pretty!?!!). ;D

I found this lot really entertaining. The whole situation of Mundine sleeping next to a drag queen...it's bizarre... I'm usually quite cynical when it comes to these sorts of shows, but i dont see much wrong with it. The celebrities get exposure. The network gets ratings. The charity gets money. The viewers are enjoying it. All win situation. You gotta remember the show wouldn't work without the charity - It gives the celebrities an excuse for being in the house - that's why they constantly remind you. |

I really don't understand why Imogen went??? Kimberley seems like a bit of a bitch. But i would have thought they would have kept Imogen and Kimberley in so that there would be the possibility of some entertainment. What's the deal with Capper? Does he really think he is funny? He seems so stupid!

Warwick Capper makes me seem like less of a mysognistic pig. I like that.
