Big Brother Brazil (2002– ) User Reviews

Sheer, dull brainwashing

[jgcorrea · 25 December 2008]

Rede Globo's reality-show programme, Big Brother Brasil (BBB) keeps reaching phenomenal audience records, which is absolutely incredible for anyone who lived in the last century but is irretrievably out of key with the 21st century's values, or rather lack of values. The proverbial spectator is thereby transformed into an end-user by interacting by means of as telephony, interface, WorldWideWeb, CRM or Relationship Marketing. Through BBB, the Brazilian Globo Network ordains a cognitive process that supposedly teaches the end-using viewer to introject in his\her subjectivity the concept of "inverted pan-optics" typical of French post-modernity as defined by Michel Foucault and Gilles Deleuze. Such conception structures virtual relationships ruled by values which Brazilian thinker Gilberto Freyre associated with both the Jesuit and the Franciscan ideologies, fundamental in the formation of the Brazilian people.

I can't believe that after suffering from dictatorship from a great tyrant, it came to Brazil an even greater tyrant, invisible to many, way beyond the citizen Kane or 1984, transforming all watchers in everything but critics of our brutal reality, allowing discussing a TV programming that brings nothing but a beauty contest, headlining newspaper instead of our economic troubles, a preview of who will star the next month playboy, or even who will be in next alderman elections, I truly trust that the media can produce something a lot better than that, and the people will be represented for what they are in TV, so I have nothing else to say about Big Brother Brazil except awful plus horrible.

Let's be real!

A lot of people constantly tries to put this reality down, but they forgot how important this was for the creation of a big team of people who still be relevant on society, like actors or even politicians. Obviously, there are some kinda of disturbances every single year, and exploring the main reason why this program exists, shows how ignorant some people can be, avoiding that you surely aren't going to watch this to become a expert in economics or politics. The same way you can refuse to watch it, you can leave society to have their own choice of having some fun during those difficult times we've been thru.
