Maybe it's just for shedding light on a serious issue in a way that even the last TV-retard can understand.

I have to say that for the first 4 years I lived in Hungary I didn't have access to TV, radio or English language newspapers. And do you know it was wonderful and I had a lot more time to live life. TV=a load of ****!

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Well, nobody forces you to watch it now. They still have an OFF switch. Tongue

Oh, come on. It's a another tacky 'reality show'. Reality my arse, it's cheap & nasty television. They wouldn't dare show this crap if so many people weren't addicted to watching it. It's actually a social comment on the intelligence of the typical TV viewer.

Its BNN... lots of screaming ahead and usually a decent program when it is shown. Just like Spuiten en Slikken (where they were using XTC and so on to show the effects on TV)

And yet again Bnn brings a program which makes it to the national parliament... In this case some of the parties wanted to get the particular program banned..... ah well... Welcome to Holland!

Absoloutely spot on. It is trash aimed soley at the viewer with half a brain cell, which sadly seems to be the main audience now! Big Brother and all of the other reality stuff that spawns from it is just crap, no merit whatsoever.

Hit rock bottom, smashed through it, entered the mantle, liquidised, been churned up in the convection currents and have been spat out again, half-formed and pointless, by the volcano that is channel 4 Grin

I supose you could argue its pointless...but you could say the same about any tv show/film/music. If its entertaining I would say it isn't pointless, maybe stupid lol...but not pointless.

To me, the Kidney show seems to me like they're "playing God", as seeing who lives and who dies. Besides, the chick donating her kidney has cancer, right? I thought you couldn't donate organs if you had cancer. That may only be in the US... Either way, I think it's a bunch of bull-oney.
