Advantages: Great drama show, secrets, lies
Disadvantages: None

...Families, drama, secrets and lies, what more could you want from a television show.!! Brothers and sisters is one of my favourite drama series out at the moment. It is shown in England on Channel 4 and more recently on E4. It first came out in September 2006 and as of September 2008 they are now in their third series. The DVD of the first series came out in February of this year. It is an American drama series featuring the Walker family of California. They are a fairly well to do family who live in Pasadena, California, just near Los Angeles. We are introduced to the family at a birthday party. The patriarch and much loved figure of William Walker dies in spectacular fashion and things are never quite the same again. What looked liked a charmed life from the outside soon begins to crack and the secrets come pouring out. Nora Walkers... Read review

Advantages: I don't have to watch it - neither do you
Disadvantages: dire to watch, embarrassing,

...Big Brother (or Big Brothel) is undoubtedly the biggest flop of recent TV - very close in standard to that other classic El Derado. We hear that in Holland 85% of the population were tuning in - this fact has put me off visiting the country for life. They must be the saddest creatures on Earth (closely followed by those actually in the programme). Does anybody actually like it? I tortured myself with one episode (pity they don't torture the contestants) - its awful. Big brother needs to get a grip and evict the whole bunch. The so-called stars of the show will regret being involved forever. I watched the one where Sada (or is it just Sad) wanted to leave - at least she was returning to her senses. She's probably changed her name and done a runner to avoid the embarrassment of it all. I checked out the web site and that's even worse... Read review

...that lives next door and has a crush on both the sisters. He again is a really funny character always being rejected by the girls and getting into trouble with Ray. Their were other additional cast members that joined the show during the last seasons, Tia's boyfriend Tyreke and Tamera's boyfriend Jordon. What was so ironic about these characters was that their girlfriends were their total opposites. Tia dating a high school drop out mechanic and Tamera dating a educated, highly gifted college student. One of the episodes also introduced Tahj Tia's cousin, who comes to stay during the Christmas holidays. The Character Is Tia and Tamera's brother in real life and this was the first time he made his TV debut before moving on to smart guy. Starring: Tia Mowry Tamera Mowry Tim Reid Jackée Harry Marques Houston (1-4) Anna Slotky (2... Read review

...the Big Brother house. In week one the are no nomination,instead it is the Big Brother Brotherhood and whoever is in the brother hood gets to choose the next housemate to join the brotherhood.That way by half way through the second week ,the last three members who have not been invited to join the brotherhood will be put up for eviction and face the public vote. There are already arguments amongst housemates starting and friends and enemies being made. WEEK TWO:- It is getting close to who will be left to face the public vote with only Glyn,Bonnie,Nikki and Dawn left. The last one to join the brotherhood is Nikki. Suddenly Dawn is called to the diary room as there is an emergency message from her sister (big brother will alway pass on emergency information from family members to the housemates) When Dawn comes out of the diary room she...

Advantages: different and unique
Disadvantages: didnt go on for long enough

...he wrote the sound of music even though he wasn't born by the time it came out, getting Nathan to massage his leg, going around saying cake, saying to victor he kissed his sister Emilia. thankfully he passed and got a free pass to the final. John ended up winning big brother. Jeremy Metcalfe: Jeremy was born in 1988 in Hampshire's is a racing driver. he became good friends with victor as well as Victor's sister Emilia and Amy. He has a love hate relationship with Emilia but also seemed to really be into Amy. he seemed a very sly but loving house mate coming in at 5th place. THE CELEBRITY HIJACKERS: Matt Lucas; probably the best out of the whole lot giving john a very funny task. Ian Wright: Did a decent job but nothing too interesting Alan Cumming: once again...

...person like Alison. Her best mate Kate burst into tears at Alison’s eviction. Alison was shocked when she found out that Adele had nominated her. Eviction night was really special. Apparently Davina McCall gets paid GBP 50,000 per programme. Alison’s mother and sisters were there to greet her. It was great to see her friends and family. I expected mad Lynne from Aberdeen to be the first evictee. But seeing the eviction of Alison was a complete surprise. RICH AND POOR DIVISION Last Friday Davina mentioned the division of the house into a rich and a poor section. Last Saturday’s programme was the best ever. Big Brother handed out an envelope to the housemates. At 10 p.m. Adele read out the instructions to pack everyone’s suitcases and to put basic essentials into a small side bag. Spencer slept through... Read review

Advantages: Good writing, alright storyline.
Disadvantages: Is it really right to do that 2 a child?

...This book still puzzles me. I still am unsure whether I liked it or not. Usually with books there's a clear answer but with this there wasn't. It's not like with the Harry Potter books, that you can't put them down until you've finshed reading them, I got bored quite easily with this book because I didn't agree with what was going on. To explain more I'll explain about the plot: THE PLOT Anna was not born the proper way, she was one of the first children to be 'made' specfically for her genetic make-up. When her older sister was a toddler she was diagonosed with lukemia and the only way her parents could save her was by having Anna and using her bone-marrow to save Kate's life. But at age 13 she starts to think what her life would be if it wasn't tied so much to her sisters life, because of her constant visits... Read review
