Possibly the stupidest thing I've ever seen

Big brother is possibly the stupidest show on TV, capturing its audience in by showing people, people living in a house. I've asked a few people before why they watch it and they say 'its so funny how some people get on'. The fact is, real people don't act like that and they're only there to make sure they don't get voted out. People on the show are idiots too, for instance I remember one person once asking who Shakespeare was. Remember this is a British show.. The live shows are the worst with regular commentary being "4:35am, (Name) is sleeping in the bedroom". How this is entertaining is beyond me, and the tasks are in my opinion boring.

Honestly, this might have been alright for the first season or whatever but it has definitely outlived its stay.
