Final episode

What did you think of the final Big Mouth?

Here's what I thought a little while ago in my commentary diary on the main site:

General discussion about today's shows & BB's axing.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:55pm, EST, by Ridge Rogue

The hosts of Big Mouth acknowledged at the start that BB has been axed. I think it has been quite gutless of Ten to leave it to Rove last night and Tony on tonight's show to mention that BB had been axed (but it's what you can expect from Ten, they're weak - can't stand up to ACMA and love firing pregnant female employees). The discussion then moved to tonight's daily show action. This covered the fake eviction after the genuine one last night.

I think that the whole "Big Sting" daily show tonight was the most cringeworthy piece of rubbish that has ever been presented on BB. How dumb are the HMs? They all know how this works and should've seen it a mile away. But, no, Ben had to be over-dramatic about it and Rory pretended to be shocked. It was exactly what BB hoped for. This s**t might work in the UK BB but here we know better - or at least the HMs are supposed to.

One article I read today blamed the show's demise on the fact that the "audience erosion" is because viewers and HMs know what to expect. But it isn't this at all. I firmly believe that the producers have massively underestimated the audience in so many ways. It's easy to come up with decent ideas for BB if you try and the fans have always done it, so why can't television producers?

I now want this show to be moved to Sydney, where it belongs, and to be bought by a better television network that actually has a clue. The drop in viewers can be blamed squarely on the amateurish wankers that run the show (too focused on giving us the opposite of what we want to watch).

No one else can be blamed at all for the mediocre production we've seen in recent years. It is funny how this show still works overseas and they're into a tenth series in America, for example. But here in Australia, our television industry still hasn't grown up yet and is too used to producing mediocrity for the sake of the bottom line. There are no quality productions on commercial television in this country, I believe, and that has to stop. Anyway, I'm sure I'll have more to say about that topic (of BB's axing) soon.

Big Mouth then moved to the topic of Brigitte's sex tape (she thinks it was a bluff from Eric). She (as a guest on the panel) and the hosts then set about making him out to be a control freak. There were "best moments" interspersed among all this and Cherry joined the panel. There was a little bit of discussion about his attitude towards women and he tried to suggest that it was all taken out of context.

A few other segments followed this on Big Mouth. There was a chat with the HMs about last night's action. There was also some of the usual nudity. Highlights of Pammy's stay in the house were given a run for several minutes and that's really all there was of any real interest (if you can call it interesting). The whole concept of Big Mouth on Big Brother in this country was undoubtedly the dumbest idea yet and the low ratings were proof of that. That was the final episdode and good riddance to that crap!
