Diary of a recovering Big Brother Addict

I watched the first three seasons of Big Brother. Actually I watched season one & season three. No, it's not something I'm proud of. I should have used that time to be creative or learn how to use an airbrush. Instead I spent weeks obsessing about who would win HOH. We all have our bad habits & being addicted to Big Brother was mine.

At first, it was a contest to see who the nation liked the best. It was fun to watch people go stir crazy being stuck in a house together with no outside influences. I really felt like we got to know the people & what their lives were like.

Occasionally, I still tune in every season just so I can say "Yup it's as bad as I thought it was." Now, the show just exists for people to form alliances. "Hi my name is so & so want to be in an alliance?" Then that person goes & forms an alliance with every other person. It really doesn't matter because every other person in the house is in a secret alliance with everyone else. It is sorta fun to watch them act all betrayed when they find out about the multiple alliances, but I wish the show was the way that it used to be.
