Just watched Big Brother On the Couch for the first time. How dreadful?
1) Why get Davina to present it of all people? Is it some sort of joke, some sort of warning to us all? Here's Davina, who obviously knows every law of body language, she can "do" listening so well, and yet she obviously listens to nothing. Her every mannerism screams correctness from a psychological point of view, but is wrong in every other way. Her body can no longer "do" real.
2) How many times can they get Davina to say "Let's take a look"? It must have been at least 30 in an hour show. Think of a different way to introduce clips. Please.
3) Why does every Psychologist talk such bullshit. Lesley's power demonstrated by the way she eats a banana? Surely the very opposite is demonstrated? She sits behind the banana with her knife and fork precisely because she is trying to hide her impotence. Seany pulling off her duvet (which they of course show without comment straight after talking about her power), demonstrated that her parade of power was completely empty. And so she could not stay in the house a moment longer. The emperor was naked.
4) The meeting rule which turned out to be a) repetitive (the reason for the meeting seemed to be listed in 3 of 5 categories) b) meaningless, as the rules for running a good meeting turned out to be powerless in the face of the ... drama triangle!? Good grief.
5) There was no context given for anything. Wasn't the way they integrated the psychology into a normal show in previous series far better, not only contextualized but also allowing you to pretty much ignore it.
6 Why Davina?! Why. Why. Why.
