One of the big shows of the summer is CUB's Big Brother. They have just finished their 13th session. In this show it's the lead up to an evicted, or one member of the house leaving the show. Tempers flare when Jeff finds out that Shelly is working with the other alliance and is trying to keep Daniele in the house. It shows the sort of manipulation and games that people will play to win $500,000. In this game the views get to vote on items, like what the food changes for the week would be or who would have to dress up in a costume. However the big 'twist' as CBS calls it for this year was the views voted to have one of the evictees comeback and play a game with the evictee of that week, to get back in the house to play. This year they also had couples come back and play together, the famous of them where Brendon and Rachel, who met on the show and fell in love. The show itself is interesting when they start felling the betrayals and backstabbing of each other but some of the bitter arguments are stupide and pointless and you can't wait for them to get evicted. In the clip they focused on the argument of Jeff and Shelly as though it was the only thing happening in the house and the music in the background that they use builds up the suspense, so you want to keep watching to find out what happens. A lot of people believe that they pick cast members who will cause trouble in the house and Dick form this year’s show was that guy. He came into the show with planes to shack things up and he did just that till everyone voted him out. It gets you to watch it because you pick up on how they manipulate and play each other without them know what is happening, as though you are all knowing because you get to see everything, almost a God scenes, it could be called.
I believe that the networks do pick people who have clashing personalities to be on the same show. It causes drama on the show and that causes people to talk about it to others when they are not watching shows. That then leads to more viewers. I also think that the networks let us see people on the shows talk about each other behind their backs because it gives the viewers a sense of connection to the show and characters.
ReplyDeleteThis show makes the viewers watch because they have the power of voting for decisions and actions that will happen in the game. This makes the viewers feel like they are part of the game and get hooked to watching the show every week. I think that it is pretty distinguishing how people will lie and turn on their friends just to get closer to winning the prize money. It is showing our society that lying and deception is alright as long as you can benefit from it. This is completely wrong and showing our society a bad image
