Battle of the Brains BBC 2 6PM.

I Challenge anyone to watch this for more than 5 minutes without falling into a fit of rage for the remaining 25. Seriously it's so bad, how can they get away with this crap?

Now I know TV can't get worse than this, but are there other things I should be avoiding?

So you've never seen Britain's/America's Next Top Model then? Or any other form of reality tripe? That said, Battle Of The Brains is quite bad.

But at least Top Model has girls to look at, alright so they ALWAYS pick the wrong ones. But it's better than that stupid quiz!

So you have watched it then?

I watched the first episode of Spooks: Code 9 last night. The script was like a first draft written by a mediocre GCSE English student. :lol:

Though Georgia Moffett is hotness.

What the hell happened to British television?

Too many crappy channels, and an over-reliance on imported US rubbish.

Yeah, an ex of mine 'forced' me to watch it from time to time. I was never sure if I was allowed to say which ones were the most attractive while she was in the room.

Over the past decade the best the US has to offer has far outshone the best the UK has produced. It may not be a good indication of the general quality of US TV shows since everyone here only selects the shows from the high end of the spectrum but everything made in the UK has been garbage except for a select few.

Diet on the Dancefloor.

The bastard lovechild of Fat Club & Strictly Come Dancing.

Yes, Fat Club & Strictly Come Dancing :roll:

That advert for CelebAir on ITV2 is the sign of telly scraping around Alan Partridge's anus for ideas.

But what was the last decent home-grown thing to air on any ITV channel? I can't remember anything since the 80's.

Anyone else seen that advert for that foot stuff called Curanail?

The tag line at the end is:

'Don't be a criminail (sp), choose Curanail'

WFF

Some people like ITV's dramas. I haven't watched any on that channel for about a decade.

The X Factor.

I was really disappointed to hear it was making a comeback, and considering the amount of viewers it draws I fear there's probably no getting rid of it now.

P Diddy, Usher and Rick Astley? Amazing. :lol:

It's the guy in the yellow shirt which does it for me. His mate is doing all the singing, and then he drops a bit of 'gangsta' into it. :lol:
