Big Brother is one of my favourite TV programs, and now it’s launching again tomorrow! Channel 4, 9pm!
Looking at the photos of the new house, I am really excited: the whole credit crunch idea I think is really good, and I like secret rooms and twists.
Many critics of the show are asking if we still care. I can say 100% that I do. You can see pictures and teasers of the new season here on the C4 website.
With the recent news of the Church of Scientology being banned from editing Wikipedia, here are 4 parts of a Panorama Scientology investigation, that was broadcast a year ago. I think it’s an interesting perspective. Whether you agree with it or not, it’s worth a watch.
You can also watch the reply by the Church of Scientology here.
Tonight is Eurovision, and I will be watching and supporting the UK. Below is the first rehearsal of Jade Ewen, and I am very impressed. She has a great voice, and this is well worth a look:
Mma Ramotswe. The No 1 Lady Detective in the whole of Botswana. (Quite a title).
The series is shown on BBC1 at 9pm. It’s one of my weekly favorites, and I highly recommend it.
It has great plots, twists, and is hilariously funny. I really feel like I know who Mma is, like she’s a friend. Check this program out, especially if “you are a woman who lies to eat” lol.
Pushing Daisies; one of ITV’s most popular American Imports. Despite its complete wackiness, it is one of my favorite TV shows. I love the way the stories unfold, the language they use and the twists and turns of each weeks plot. Now however, the show has ended; ABC has put it on the shelf, mid season.
13 episodes have been made, only 10 of which have actually been shown. Apparently, episode 13 won’t provide a narrative ending to the show. Will Ned and Chuck ever be able to touch??
Perhaps the show will return in the future; who knows, even ITV may commission it. I certainly hope so! My friday evening will be that little bit emptier without Pushing Daisies.
Celebrity Big Brother this year started a week ago, last Friday. The past week has been filled with excitement, laughter, and bitching about Coolio who is getting on a lot of people nerves. Tonight, Ulrika Johnson or Lucy Pinder will be evicted. My bet is on Lucy going; she hasn’t really done much in the house, and Channel 4 bosses would be annoyed to see Ulrika go, (after splashing out on a reported £175,000 for her to be in the house). Next eviction, I think we’ll see Coolio up; he’s annoying people. Will he be saved by the public though? La Toya and Verne are my favorites to win so far.
Britney’s performance on the X Factor last Saturday has been heavily criticized in the press. To some extent I agree; the performance wasn’t as good as it could have been. It was disappointing that she didn’t sing live, and she was thinking a lot when she was dancing, which disrupted it’s “natural flow”. However, I think she should be given a break. She’s had a tough year, and it’s great to see that she’s coming over the hill from that. Her confidence will surely grow again, and we’ll see her back on top soon.
When she performed Womanizer on Star Academy in France, her performance was better I thought. See it below:
UPDATE: This video has now be removed because of TF1. See the X Factor video instead.
Same Difference, from last year’s X Factor performed on yesterday’s result show. They followed in the footsteps of Mariah Carey, Leona Lewis, Take That and Celine Deon. All those artists sang live, and they haven’t even been competitors on the show. Then it was Same Difference’s turn. And they mimed. It was terrible miming too, and if that wasn’t enough, you could hear that there voices had been enhanced, because the song had almost quite an ‘electronic’ ring to it. Then, at the end when they spoke the sound became completely muffled. Wow. Watch it for yourself below:
It’s despicable for them to Mime on the X Factor. Being contestants who sang last year, they should have done the same yesterday. Big difference.
I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here is set to start at 9pm this Sunday on ITV1! It will be the eighth series of the show, which has provided some of the funniest moments of TV ever!
This years Celebrities are set to include: Brian Paddick, Carly Zucker, Dani Behr, Esther Rantzen, George Takei, Joe Swash, Martina Navratilova, Nicola McLean, Robert Kilroy-Silk and Simon Webbe.
So. No real celebrities there then. I wonder if this series will be as good as some of the past ones. Last years for example was fantastic, with Janice Dickinson making the show. I still think she should have won!
Esther Rantzen should be fun though, and she’s the oldest ever to go in! Anyway, we’ll shortly see good the series will be. I’ll leave you with this funny video:
So last Saturday Laura White was evicted from the X Factor, despite being a hot favourite to win.
As we could see from her and Cheryl Cole’s face, there was a lot of shock at this result. It all fell to Louis to cast the judges vote of cause, between her and Ruth Lorenzo.
Now it is being said how it was “tactical” voting on behalf of Louis, and how the public was angry because she was supposedly going out with an X Factor executive, which actually wasn’t true.
All I know is that I think Ruth was actually better in the sing off. Laura too was amazing. What is strange is how certain people are still in the competition, such as Daniel. He tries his best, but he’s just isn’t in the same league as Laura.
I think as always, the public voting goes down to who has the best story, and who gets the nations sympathy.
Big Brother is one of my favourite TV programs, and now it’s launching again tomorrow! Channel 4, 9pm!
