Escapism

The reason I watch reality tv is because I want to get away from my day to day realism and to observe other people’s behaviours from different walks of life. The content on bigg boss 13 currently is concentrated with fights, negativity, and no respect for the other persons view point, which is far away from reality.

Maybe there is a bit of psychology about watching other people ways of dealing with life that attracted me towards this show, but the show at the moment is too biased and not close to reality at all.

It’s completely off putting. I feel I have to give a break; as I don’t want this to be my escapism.

I completely agree. I was actually getting anxious watching everyone scream and fight like animals. seriously don’t how salman kept his cool

A lot of people on this forum have the same opinion. I’m eager to see if the TRP in India will increase due to content like this.. it’ll explain a lot to me.

I turned off the episode half way. This is not entertainment. Arguments and fights are entertaining to a certain degree. But today, they ALL went way beyond that and that is not how we deal with other human beings. I still can't find a single person to support.

Yup, agreed. I gave up 2 weeks ago, and only tuned in day-before-yesterday, and again, yesterday. Even in just 2 weeks the show has become so much more chaotic and anxiety inducing its crazy.

One thing is for sure. The show's longterm success has been heavily compromised by this season (the negativity plus the bias), because:

- No sensible popular celebrity will sign up unless they are paid a ridiculous amount and the contract is iron-clad in terms of violence.

- Very few sensible audience members will tune in and get emotionally attached to the contestants after this season's fiasco.

totally agree 100%

Full blame goes to COLORS channel for blindly supporting Shukla and even keeping him in house when he was quite sick. Sinking low for TRPs.

Im afraid its way TOO close to reality. People are exactly like this in real life. They blindly support bullies..whitewash them..blame the victims..accuse the victim of playing the woman card if shes a woman..tease the victim with other references about masculinity and sexuality( like the comments made about Asim) if the victim is a guy . Even if the bully HAS to be called out..people do it in a cunning way...by glossing over his faults..oh its just an anger management issue..oh its just aggression that has to be controlled..but hes good at heart..he has goodness tucked away deep inside his ass ..all kinds of defenses will be made. And ex victims would side up with the bully and bully others so that they arent the targets anymore.

At the end of it..the bully comes out as the winner...personally and professionally. He or she will have supporters and 'friends'...he or she would be given work no matter how many incidents of rash this or drunken that theyd have to deal with. This is what happens in real life and thats whats happening on BB ..Shukla is going to go home with the trophy. Even if he doesnt win..he d still be called a 'hero'.

Real life - " Who asked you to get raped? You must have done something to invite the rapist"

BB13 " You know he is an aggressive person...who asked you to argue with him. If he makes rude comments why respond to him at all? Nobody asked u to get pushed "

Brilliantly said! 👏 .... I have seen up close such people in my own family! They come at you with their filth and you have to get filthy to reply back to them ... In the end suggestion is she's immature, doesn't know what she's speaking, she's nasty so avoid! But to be frank spoken words can't be taken back, they stay with you for life! .. Bullies rarely mend their ways, they need the negativity to survive in life! All one can do is cut ties with such people, really wish Rashmi and Asim to ignore those morons, but it won't happen!

If you see hina khan interview she had herself said in reality show they show edited version of reality if you watch unseen videos they are not like always fighting they have fun moments too in the house but the question does fun moments bring out trp the answer is no by watching unseen videos I do get further glimpse of everyone equation sana who behaves like kid is quiet good observant of people,sid who is aggressive has logical mind,Rashmi and parabs and paras Conversation are mostly humorous and good and paras is very entertaining in unseen along with visual both have good sense of humour I feel sad this people showing only negative shades of each contestants.
