NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! (Big Brothers Back) :(

[Rawns]

BBC News - Big Brother moving to Channel 5

Kill me now.

Off to dig a hole, paint a wall or something a little more constructive than watch BB

[CAM]

It can join Home and Away and Neighbours as once highly popular television viewing reduced to the TV Graveyard.

I would much rather help a teacher with some marking than watch BB!

For extra effect, you can use the special new ergonomic 'not-a-tv' system. It involves, and here's the clever bit, getting rid of the brainwash box and doing something else.

Did it ever get off the bottom of the hill in the first place?

The new owner of Channel 5, Richard Desmond also owner of the Daily and Sunday Express, and Daily Star, and a stable of adult magazines may be responsible for this slide into mediocrity.

BB is a load of steaming poo - drivel. Kill me now. The teachers and the kids will be wanting to know how they can watch it over the internet.

And Prison Break (when it started)!

I actually like the idea of BB on a dif channel, and the way they're doing it sounds a lot better this year (not just picking 10 freaks, but doing a charlie chocolate style golden ticket system for a chance to be in...)
