In other news, Breakfast TV dropped from all networks.. interesting and Today Show are really getting close to Sunrise.
Public holiday in several states, so let’s wait for tomorrow.
I watched Masterchef…it is on the pointy end now….
I watched BB today on 7flix….came in late…on the swing game…not overly impressed…too many flashy neon colors…distracting….
BB is more like my young English cousin….he is already getting on my nerves…
I don’t feel like I will get invested…but time will tell….Sonia is amazing …but yes, seems superfluous…again, she may get more involved later….I hope.
Oh…. and ads….lots of ads…
I lasted until just after the first commercial break and that was just after 8pm and decided it wasn’t for me
