You know, if there was any better example of faux pas, it would be the quote of the director of the current "reality television" series here in the Philippines; Pinoy Big Brother. Why it's no other Director Lauren Dyogi.
Lauren Dyogi is the director of the reigning(?) "reality television" series Pinoy Big Brother. Well, it seems that since the television station that airs this series (ABS-CBN) owes the Endemol pretty much a lot of money for the license of this series franchise which I think it amounts to around 30 million pesos, Filipino viewers are treated to sick and mundane entertainment three times a day for around I think 3 to 5 years in order to pay Endemol back. And it is just the break-even point. So I guess the people will be treated to stupid entertainment for around 8 years more.
But enough of the talk about Pinoy Big Brother at a whole. What strike me with thier stupidity is that when Lauren Dyogi announced more Pinoy Big Brother with the newest edition, the Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition.
Lauren Dyogi was quoted saying:
"PBB is open to everyone. One does not have to be very beautiful or handsome. Personality and sex appeal are more important to us."
What the fuck? Pinoy Big Brother doesn't need beautiful or handsome people, but needs personality and sex appeal? Isn't that a one big fucking contradicition? If it isn't a classic case of open mouth, insert foot then I don't know what is.
Well, I guess Filipinos are gonna be stupid enough to watch this "reality television" series. You know, if I am going to watch "reality," I would stop watching tv, step outside of my fucking home, and watch real people. Man, television sucks.
