Its a bit like Big Brother on C4. At first, I am frustrated by thinking that the housemates i find really irritating, are popular - not only in the house, but will also be popular in the outside world, in the sense that - "is it only me who can see what a **** this person is?!"
However, sure enough it quickly becomes apparent that the majority of the "viewers" also find this person annoying as hell, for the exact same reason/s. Therefore, nobody is fooled, and people tend to see through trouble causers and falseness.
