Before the show started i did bag it and poo pooed it.
Now i actually like it and havent missed a second.
But a lot of people dont like it, people who tried to give it a go.
I can only speak about the people i know.
The common things seem to be the sameness of the housemates.
I understand and agree.
They are all within the same age group. The one housemate they had outside of the group was naturally virtually forgotten and soon voted out. The rest are all similar ages and talk the same shit they have talked foe the same past 6 seasons.
I guess the people who started with this show are getting older and are maturing with their attitudes. When you reach certain point in life talking about who is hot or not and sex is just plain boring. The original audience starts to drop away and the kids are just given so much to watch these days so the audience is spread thin.
Ive tried to get people interested in my workplace but people just dont care when they cant relate to the people they are watching.
I will keep watching..but when it comes to the point of them all lying in the yard and continually talking about sex and who is hot..then i will drop off like usual..and i bet many here will do the same if they were being honest with themselves. I am happy to be proven wrong and i really hope i am!
Numbers were up at the start because there was a twist promised and then one didnt happen..well, we got some silly fence thing thats being taken away..so that was a fizzer. Audiences wanted a Big Thing to happen: something that noone saw coming.
We got promised a diverse group of housemates...yeah, that didnt really happen. You could go to any pub in sydney and find this group of housemates.
Why are they so reluctant to actually go the obvious route and really give us diversity? Give us a group of 14 housemates that you know probably wouldnt interact together in the real world and see what happens.
Imagine a 19 year old houso who has 5 kid from 5 fathers being forced to live with a well educated married woman with a decent career?
Or a middle truck driver who doesnt like Gays being forced to live with Ben?
Or how about an anti war person being put with Matt?
Or Bruce Ruxton with someone from the Vietcong?
real people from very different walks of life forced to work together. You will see wars erupts and the most unilkely friendships form.
Give people who have abandoned the show a real reason to come back and see something they have not seen before.
I seriously doubt the show will come back next year. I hope I am wrong and i hope it does. I will support it and always give it a go, but it is getting harder and harder.
Im sure someone will try and say stop being negative and all that and if you dont like just dont watch. Well, if everyone who had issues just gave up then it certainly would go away.
People need to voice their issues, need to say what is wrong..but they still need to at least try to give the show a go.
I know of many previous fans who have given up and it is people like that we need to get back and once again make this the most talked about show in the land
I am sorry if you dont like the comments i have made in the post..but they are my true feelings about a show that i have loved for over a decade. We cant all be positive all the time just for the sake of it..thats when the powers that be think everything is fine.
