The show's not going to be axed. The media have blown it completely out of proportion. I've seen the video of what happened, the girl was laughing and carrying on all the way through it. Anyways it's not exactly porn, here's the link:

White trash at its finest. I don't watch that shit, and I downloaded the link jae gave. Am I disgutsed? No. Am I suprised? No. Should it be taken off tv? Absolutely. Heres the reason: Channel 10 are idiots. they wanted to blow it out of proportion to boost ratings, a kind of "what will happen next" and an ensuing "was it right" kind of discussion. What happened was they went down the road of was it sexual abuse/harrassment, and considering the P & 0 death and that its always a very sensative issue, people will think (who havent seen it) that its glorifing women as sexual objects.

Either way though, I'm not going to watch it. But if I had the power to make the decision, yes i would take it off tv, but not becuase of this incident. I'd take it off so i wouldnt have to hear about it anymore.

But some food for thought, that 8 year old girl who was raped and murdered in perth , her funeral was today. what led the news tonight? this big brother shit. its a really sad reflection on society when people are more emotional about a tv show then an 8 year old girl being abducted,raped and murdered.

About the 8 year old girl
Man, when I saw it on the News my heart sunk, it must be a terrible feeling for the family of the young girl. :|

About Big Brother
This years Big Brother is fucking shit. I can't wait until this hopeless attempt at a reality show is turned off.

I think it would be safe to bet this will be the last season, thankfully.

Big Brother sucks the dong. That's all I wanted to say. I hope it gets axed so Ten buys some real shows like According to Jim or My Wife and Kids or Still Standing.

Whenever I see the words "Big Brother" and "axed" in the same sentence, I can't help but take an interest. I'd download the video but I haven't seen Big Brother in over two years and I'm not about to end the boycott now.

But even though Foxtel allows me to avoid it, it needs to go. Reality TV just needs to end, or get pushed aside for quality programming. I'm sure there's people with some great ideas for sitcoms, dramas and other television that would be more entertaining when you fell like just chilling out in the evening but reality TV is standing in the way.

It's a shame indeed, though it's not isolated to Big Brother. These days it seems society is more appalled by mild profanity or sexual innuendo on television than violence in the streets or sexual offenders who are lurking in communities (like that creepy, pathetic SOB who admitted to ACA that he'd love to molest more children now he's been released and believes there's nothing wrong with it, but "nothing can be done" because he was convicted before certain laws about informing and protecting neighbourhoods when a sex offender moves in were passed).

Didnt even look like she cared much after getting "turkey slapped"....it even looked like she was grabbing some afterwards. Oh well, dont know much about Big Brother since I'm not much of a tv person. It wasnt that bad from what I saw but it getting the headline over the 8 yr old girl is pretty sad.

Big Brother is a waste of life. I don't know why anyone would want to watch that crap. People need to get a life instead of watching others live theres.

...and with that said, i have to admit that i have watched some big brother this year. :oops: :lol: I don't know why, it's just been interesting with the Insider and all. Pretty lame i suppose but oh well, i like it.

Anyway as for this issue, what the fuck is the big deal? They should not have been kicked out for that. And the show should not get axed. 2 blokes messin around with a girl and it's national news. It's not like they fucked her without her permission. Camilla loves the cock, and she loved this. She was just embarrased about the fact that she was made a joke of, not because she was sexually violated or whatever. She likes that guy, as if she wouldn't want to have his willy in her face, haha.

I didn't know Ash's real name was michael though. :o I knew John was called michael, he always went "Hey i'm mich- john". But Ash is suprising.

after watching the vid, i definately think it wasnt that bad :wink: I dont watch it either, but i only said that it might be axed is because John Howard has declared for it to be axed as well as all those pretection aggainst naughty shows at childrens times people,But John Howard doesnt really get a say on what gets axed does he? And it wasnt actually boradcasted on the show, only on the live streaming, so Ch 10 havnt really broken any rules in that department...

The only reality TV show I watch and like is Survivor, probably because it's not using sex to gain an audience but course now it's been overdone and it's not as fun as it was since the originality of it has simply disappeared probably after Survivor Africa is where I stopped being an addict and just an on and off viewer. The rest of it is all frikkin bullshit, like Real World, Big Brother and those Joe Millionaire types.
