I'm afraid I cannot stomach more than about 30 seconds of that crap. It almost makes me feel physically ill. I find it an insult to intelligence, culture and taste.

In fact any program in that vein (including the various "reality" programs) represent to me everything I despise about television, celebrity and commercial exploitation for it's own sake.

Let's be clear - I am in no way advocating that it should be banned, terminated or censored in any way. I just choose not to watch it, just like I don't stop in the street or rubber neck when there's an accident. I consider it the height of morbid curiosity and bad manners.

Rant over.
