It was when Mike Goldman was kicked out of the Big Brother crew wrap party after falling in a canal in an attempt to elude security that I knew Big Brother was over.

And he’s a guy, like all the staff on the Reality TV stalwart; that you grow to love the more you know them. It was the end of a… click HERE to read on.
