Sadly yes it shows how much banality is worshipped.
Think about it, this 'programme' is about watching what people get up too when locked in a room without TV. Fans of the show watch this at home on their TV.
My own opinion is that it actually turns people who watch it stupid. How do I know this? Just listen to anyone discussing it.

Id say we are a curious nation. Most people only tuned in to see which 'celebrities' were going into the house. Most of those 8 million will probably not watch any more now they know whos gone in. Others will watch because of curiosity. They want to see what these people are really like.

8 million in a population of how many as a percentage- if America then less than 5% , doesn't say much about the state of the nation at all- however about the 8 million that did watch- well it can't be worse than the Jerry springer show- that is some serious s*&t.

I think it does. To me it shows how sad the nation is to be watching other people leading their lives instead of leading their own! However, having said that, there is limited good television and if I was to watch big brother it would only be the celebrity one. More to the point, this years one promises to be very interesting with the good mix of characters in the house!

Everyone could be called "sad" if they got too wrapped up in their hobby. Example:- An estimated 3 million people on here at any one time...does this say something about the addiction to Yahoo?! I'd say there are levels of addiction to both.

I watched the first night only so far, I wanted to know who'll go in. I don't know if I'll watch it again, maybe if there's nothing on the telly. I'd say many people think the same way as me, so that's your 8 million.

LOL Yes! With 300 million people in this country, at least 2.6% have television sets.
Above all, I think it says that 97.4% of the country had better things to do.
