Title: Does anyone else here still watch "Big Brother"?
Post by: Black Diamond Vol on September 02, 2013, 02:42:35 EDT
This is a pretty serious accusation.  Potentially another Quiz Show Scandal.  The animated GIF near the bottom is particularly damning.  

I know it's just a silly reality show, and all of these are scripted to some extent.  But it IS technically a competition show in which a cash prize is awarded, so it still falls under federal regulation.

I read the article and watched the GIF animation and have no clue what happened or why it's bad.  :doh:

I have NEVER watched Big Brother and even turn the commercials off. I could not imagine how it was not rigged.
I have NEVER watched Survivor. Never have. Never will.
I have NEVER watched any of the so-called Talent shows on any channel. I do not care who wins or loses.
In general, I do not watch any purported Reality TV because it is all scripted or preplanned. Much like big-time wrestling.
