How to Marry 'Big Brother': "At the click of a button, we can watch people getting fired, cheating on their spouses, consuming live beetles, drinking their own urine and submitting to copious amounts of plastic surgery. We can watch our fellow Americans fighting, lying, stealing and hating; proudly being as stupid as stupid can be.

Perhaps this is just a symptom of our larger consumer culture, in which notions of civic responsibility and the golden rule have been supplanted with the unending search for gratification.

Perhaps our love for 'The Apprentice,' 'Desperate Housewives' and 'Fear Factor' reflect a deeper yearning for some sort of cathartic need to watch people do silly things, safe in the knowledge that it's not us. But when we start seeing shows actually called 'Big Brother,' we need to start asking other and far more serious questions."
