Better than "Survivor"

"Big Brother" is MUCH better than "Survivor". It's kind of like MTV's "The Real World" and I LOVE that show. You never get bored watching it and it's cool that you can call and vote people out instead of having them randomly pick someone to leave. And I like how you can watch it on the website bigbrother2000.com 24/7. Almost all of them are likable-with the exception of William who's-how can I say this without using any obscenities?- a jerk. I hope that he gets kicked out of the house next Thursday (I already called to kick him out-if you haven't you should). I'm rooting for Josh (hot!) or Jamie to win. This is a great show and I reccemend it to anyone who likes watching other people's lives.
