Wha?

Are people really that stupid that they'll phone these shows and vote for such things?

I didn't think it was so bad when people were voting for their favourite singer on Plop Idol or Stars in their Eyes, as at least you can judge them based on talent, if you so desire, but why the heck are people voting on shows like DIY SOS?

I caught a bit of this program the other week, and they showed a bunch of gimpy families, that needed DIY doing for them? (DIY doing for them? that doesn't make sense - Do It Yourself?) Anyways, the show has a phone in, basically asking which family's house should they do up. Honestly, does anyone care? Does it matter if they fix the bathroom of the idiots that thought they could install their own shower, or the kitchen of the family that don't wash?

Who would waste money calling this show, or anything like this?

Do people really want to feel part of something as bad as this?

Plus the presenter reminded me of a trout.

DIY shows are crap, but this really took the biscuit, getting people to vote by phone.

No I never phone people, although I phoned Q music channel to get Manics, and it played it.

Oh yeah
