    **ABC and SBS present the odd classy show. You'll find very slim
    pickings on the commercial channels. Dunno why anyone would bother with
    Big Brother.

    I'm gonna give it a go. I just finished The Block, so it's a nice
    transition into BB.

    The block used to be quite a good reno show, but now it has jumped the
    shark. Useless contestants, judges who value presentation over
    substance, and artificial drama.

    Big Brother and its imitators like the shagfest Love Island were eaten
    by the shark years ago.

    **Yep. I did find that contestants in the jungle show reasonably
    entertaining for a couple of seasons. This was, far and away, the best
    reality TV show ever made:

    A brilliant concept.

    And this was a seriously good parody of reality TV:

    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3314218/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_5

    I suspect that it portrays much of what goes on quite accurately.
