Quote:After the show is done, everyone in it still exists.  They have birth certificates, driver's licenses, families.  People get put in contrived situations for a while to see how they react, and then they go home.  I remember when the Office was huge, and I couldn't stand that either.  Don't wan't to see ordinary people.  Don't want shows about ordinary things.  Don't want to relate to it.  I want to be as far removed as possible.  Just my preference.  

For really disliking a show you sure have a decent knowledge about it. Enough to come onto a thread and post multiple times about it. Not sure why people do that either. For someone who wants to be far removed as possible, you are doing a bad job doing it.

 

And for the record, the show is far from ordinary people, or things. I'd venture to guess that 99% or more of those who watch it can not relate to it either. Why? Because people don't live in a vacuum where foods, interactions, where people sleep, sometimes when they sleep etc., etc., etc..... are all set up for the sake of a game. So no, ordinary it is not. Far from it in fact.
