You haven't seen East Enders then?
I saw ten minutes of an episode ONCE and that was enough for me to seek a neurologist's opinion. It made my frontal lobes shut down.
At least with Trisha it is real people, but when the program is meant to be entertainment, you expect more.
Here's how I sum up East Enders:
The camera zooms in close to the female protagonist, who is glaring at the male protagonist and raising her voice.
"I just found out about you and Emma" she says, trying pathetically to look as wild as a snake for the camera.
"Well, seeing as you know me so well, I would have thought you would have found out earlier" he says, gritting his teeth and raising the volume above hers.
"Some of us have principles," she hisses, louder than him this time.
"Well don't think it won't happen again. It's not easy putting up with your mother !" he shouts, even louder (and the camera zooms even closer). After about seven seconds of the camera zoomed right into the cretin's face with his unwavering flared nostrils and raised eyebrows, there is a cut to another scene where a similar argument starts out at medium zoom and volume, but finishes at maximum zoom and volume.
X-ray reaches for a bag to puke in.
