Why Do People Like To Watch Big Brother?

Because Big Brother, like any reality show, gives people the opportunity to live vicariously through contrived characterizations, careful editing and a soap opera mentality.

I have to admit that I enjoyed and followed the 1st and second edition but right now, although they are trying very hard to introduce original ideas, the Big Brother formula has dried out.
It is really boring program; inside the house nothing really exciting happens and the people they choose are cute sometimes but absolute morons and not interesting at all.
I don't know for how long we have to bear this program on our TVs, but if it continues coming back every season should be because it has a broad audience that enjoy seeing how shallow human beings could be.

I used to love big brother, now I think it's just to kill time. I know we're your coming from some people just like watching people live in a house for no particular reason and walking around half naked for entertainment for millions of viewers.

I like big brother because of its motive. in this movie it is shows that there is a good person live in us who can fight for his right and for these who can't. i have seen this movie 3 times and i felt its a good movie. it is shows in movie that there must a man need in society who can judge the right and forbade the wrong deeds. we can see that in our society law and order has no more respect left. so someone has to come and take charge to maintain it. pundit fights for women protection which is very needy in our society.
but also there are some technical mistakes like the director showed the hero like a terminator. he hit a punch a the vilen fel down many feet away in the air to ground. but the movie motive and story is really good and positive. its a lesson to our governments that if they don't take any action against these immoral crimes and activities then the public will start acting to stop these things. this film spreads the message to government and its machinery to maintain law and order and to take positive strong action against corruption.

I think because it gives people a sense of being, also it shows them what other teens/adults do with themselves, also its reality. So it brings out the truth.

It is because we are a nation obsessed with what other people do behind closed doors and a lot of people who watched 'big brother' are hoping to see the people naked and for some sex scenes.

Because the people are real not actors .....that is why i watch .......why do so many people watch dancing with the stars

It shows the cruelty in our society. The object is to screw over other people that you don't even know in order to get the big cash.
It's just another example of what our society has reduced itself to.
"It's all about ME" ! And don't care about what you do to others in order to, "Get what I want".
Sad

Cause they have the intellect of a gopher

I like to watch big brother bcz i want to see how the celebs work and they react when somebody tell him anything wrong.

I was thinking the same thing. It seems really, really boring and can't understand why people would waste their time on it.

Big brother is good reality tv shows. Because here every person has opportunity to shows his talent and he can get easily faim .
