Axe it. Please, axe it now.
It's the first time I've ever agreed with John Howard. This show is crap. This show should be axed immediately.
The incident with John and Ashley was the last straw for me - this show is not reality. These people are not real, they're trashy, and stupid, and completely vacuous. To have their 15 minutes of fame and to boost ratings, they resort to the lowest, most depraved, disgusting behaviour imaginable.
People say the incident with John and Ashley is being taken too seriously - please, let's consider if this happened in real life to a girl. Maybe it was all for fun, like Camilla says - this is never fun. This encourages men to act foolishly and piggishly - they can be swayed to think it's no big deal, and that girls like getting "turkey slapped" or whatever the hell those boys called it.
I thought this even before John and Ashley came along - this show marks the degredation of television, almost to a point of no return. This fixation with reality TV is unhealthy and shocking - what is so fascinating about these people?
Channel 10, save your credibility. Stick to great shows like House, The Simpsons, Veronica Mars, and whatever Law & Order shows you have that have good, respectable audiences, and adopt some new shows - maybe some Australian or internationa goodies. Step outside your inane little box. Dump Big Brother. Now.
And yes, I am begging.
