Foreign Perspectives

When a show has been running for a while it generally needs a bit of a refresh to keep the viewers interested but in a change to this approach Big Brother has largely kept the same format but seems to have gone for a different approach in selecting the house mates this time around.

The relative balance from previous shows seems now to have been thrown out and instead what we have are essentially a collection of weirdos which, so far, doesn’t seem to be working overly well if Wendy’s reactions are anything to go by.

Now, I’ll grant you that the potential contestants applying to appear have also had to up the ante each year with their weirdness. After all, after a few years it take something really off the wall to attract the interest of the selection panel. Thus everyone seems to have tried to outdo everyone else in weirdness from names to lifestyles.

Is it going to end up being an interesting show though? Well, just about every random collection of people thrown together do tend to mesh after a while so this group will be no different and perhaps the very different viewpoints this time around will make it that little bit more interesting as the show gets underway.
