Big Brother has just been relaunched here in Australia a few weeks ago after something like 6 years off the air. They billed it as being different this time round. They promised intelligent housemates that weren’t all in their 20′s. Guess what? Intelligent people that aren’t in their 20′s mustn’t have applied, because it’s pretty much full of unintelligent 20-somethings. Sure, Michael apparently has a genius IQ but they haven’t found a way to get him to show it yet.
They have brought back a “Big Brother Confidential” show once a week but really it shows us nothing any more interesting. What happened to the late night show with them all talking sex, swearing and naked in the shower? THAT is what should have come back. In honour of the gratuitous memory of Big Brother Australia, here is a video of Dean who was never shy. He was in the third or fourth series several years ago.

So this footage was actually on TV? Never in the USA.
Thank gawd for the internet so I didn’t have to sit through that awful show for those *ahem!* good bits.
Oy… I never understood the appeal of these shows. Even after seeing a clip of these naked, handsome guys I feel the same.
However, I’m in the distinct minority. The line up of new “reality” shows here in the US starting this fall indicates America remains hungry for more.
