Mixing my Reality TV metaphors horribly, I'm of course referring to the ending of Big Brother and the beginning of X Factor, and not at all to How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria. Whilst I'll be sad to bid farewell to MyBoyfriendPete, this means at least 4 glorious weeks of watching the really really awful auditions. Why don't they just do away with the whole stage/live audience/finding a star pretence, and give the nation what it really wants: 24 hour a day footage of Chicken Boy, the sweet old lady, and the caberet couple that tried to start a fight.
I'm off to the launch of the new series tomorrow, which is promised to be attended by the judges. It's going to take all of my inner strength to not fling myself at the feet of Sharon Osbourne, begging her to adopt me. But then I'll ask myself - is that what Kelly would do?
And yes. In answer to your question, I'm aware of the fact that out of the 3.5 posts I've written on here so far, this is the second about reality TV. But thanks for pointing that out.
It's been 40 minutes. And it's the break in Big Brother. And I've run downstairs to log on and quickly summarise my thoughts about the remaining Big Brother contestants. It's like Blue Square all over again, although slightly less damaging. So,
..Glynn: He's sweet, isn't he. You've got the be scared that he's the most intelligent person in the house. Maybe they mistook the intelligence measure for the Welsh measure.
Richard: He's a manipulative old bitch. But he's exactly the kind of person I'd be friends with.
Pete: I've already imagined the situation where I try to explain away the Tourettes to my grandparents. It must be love.
Nikki: A characater of herself. You can't go into the house, come out, and then go in again, and expect not to have a frightening level of self-awareness.
Ashleyne: She feels like a Yardie. What?
