its not a dating show though, i dont watch any of those, its jump into a volcano class madness! at least 1 of the couple is thinking OMG is this all im worth, or oh wow he/she is punching above her weight, and then the exs at the wedding, the mother inlaws from hell, and the im not damn on the first date to jump me at the reception, then they come home to reality, reality tv style!! i dont watch it all, i record it and then fast forward to the funny bits, usually after i finish at my pc around 11, while i have a hot choc or a bourbon! one couple in the states are still together with kids after a few years, thats about it by the looks! none of the aussie ones are, and some switched partners, not just on the sow but afterwards! one of my friends did a modelling gig at the races for a TAB add last october, and she was partnered with one of the guys from not last season the one before, he was partnered with a twin, who hated him on sight, mainly because hes short, he is living with a guy from the same season who on the show cheated on his "wife", and the cheater is now dating the tart from the last show who cheated with 2 different guys on the show! get your head around that!!!!!

its light entertainment to switch off before you go to bed!!

I'd read the review of an episode next morning, sometimes, if there was not much in the news. Generally funny but not watching it. Those freaks all taking themselves so seriously, it is dead set car crash TV and people at work all talk about it next morning. I just look at them like they've got 2 heads.

Absolutely! In fact, there is an argument for stating those that are watching are worse than the contestants.

New series of Tin Star is on SBS on Demand. First series was a cracker so hoping for the same here.

Been watching Dublin Murders, which has it's flaws but is ok, overall.

Sorry, TP, but I truly feel sick, and despair for humanity every time I see an ad for any of those "reality" shows.

Same here. A grim spectacle!
