As if vaping did not have enough bad publicity already; but this must be the pits.

Is this not a good thing?

It's curious... I mean, who are we kidding? Young people of certain social types can't get enough of smoking/fags (as the Sun likes to call them).

Any idea that the youth of today have learned smoking kills and therefore take heed is sadly misplaced. This show demonstrates that quite well it would seem.

Smoking in 18-30 y.o. has generally fallen, but not in the category of vacuous wanna-be celebrities. Surprise.

I've only seen the clips and trailers for this excuse for entertainment, and they were enough to keep me well away. Can't speak for the women on how they see the blokes, but from a male perspective the women come a pale second to a blow up doll. Everything is so false, lips, breasts etc... are there no 'real' women out there, where their various parts aren't in danger of 'dropping off' in extreme circumstances. You do realise all you female members of this forum are excluded from these comments.

As for the smoking, just proves my point... no brains, they haven't invented a cosmetic one yet!

Rant over.

Heard the title and from that I didn't bother looking. I rarely watch TV now that it's so full of crap 🙃

It's a popular program in a quantifiable demographic. I can almost let it off that, I just wouldn't want to watch it.

What is sad though is that many young people don't actually see it for what it is. This, sadly, can have a negative impact on ordinary youngsters just getting on with their lives.
