Advantages: opportunity for audience interaction
Disadvantages: not on enough!

...To put it bluntly, big brother is fantastic. The idea of watching 10 people 24 hours a day within the confines of one house, in theory seems pretty boring, but it's surprising how quickly you are drawn into the big brother world. No other kind of programme could attract such a constant level of interest, night after night.I think its success lies in the fact that everyone who watches develops a particular interest, or can identify with, one person in the house, and the fact that big brother is shown every night means that you can quickly get to know that person, in the kind of personal way you know friends or aquaintences. Basically, nothing intrigues people more than people, and big brother proves this... Read review

...After reading about Big Brother in various newspapers, I decided to watch Big Brother the other night on TV. I was highly impressed with it! It is a brilliant idea which will atract a huge audience. Putting 10 strangers in a house to live for 10 weeks sounds interesting to everyone, even the dullest of people. It looks like it will be a legendary show like 'Who wants to be a Millionare'. In my opinion, Big Brother is a great and unique idea and good fun for the whole family (well almost!).... Read review

Advantages: You still get the ocasional laugh
Disadvantages: The show now is getting a little boring as there is not as many people, so this means that the conversation lacks as there is not as many things to talk about

...After watching Big Brother for a number of times now, I think that the next person which will be kicked out or evicted from the Big Brother household will be Darren. I come to this conclusion as I predict that the nominations will be as follow. Darren = will nominate Craig and Anna Anna = will nominate Craig and Darren Mel = will nominate Craig and Darren Craig = will nominate Anna and Darren After analysing my predictions this leaves the candidates Darren with 3 votes, Anna with 2 votes, Mel with 0 votes and finally Craig also with 3 votes. This means that Craig and Darren will be up for eviction for the public, and going of the previous shows I feel as if the crowds would prefer to have Darren kicked out of Big Brother. This is my prediction and opinion on Big Brother for the forthcoming shows.... Read review

...Well I got on the train today morning on my way to work and all I could hear people talk about was big brother. Big brother is basiclly about ten strangers meeting and living with each othert for a short period of time in which the viewers eliminate the stars out of the house each week and the last one left scooping a nice prize! Whilst I'am watching the show there are many arguments between the people in the house. Big brother sets the group tasks to carry out if they want anything they have a spending limit and anything naturall they want like eggs they hatch them from thev chickens in the yard they are provided with!!!!! THIS IS A HILARIOUS COOL PROGRAMME!!!... Read review

...Ever since Big Brother began some 4 weeks ago, both the media and the public at home have built up a huge disliking to Nick. From the start Nick has always been the sore thumb of the group and is now known for his 2 faced ways and stealthy attitude. Basically, without Nick, Big Brother would be boring! For me, the highlights and best parts of Big Brother is wa
