Hey everyone! Today I just wanted to talk about this South Korean TV Show called Hello Counselor. Each week four people express their concerns about something in their life which is a concern to them. After they hear both sides of the story and listen to their family members and friends on their opinions, the audience votes if it is a concern. If that person gets the most votes(out of 150), they win $1,000, and appear each week and win the same amount again until someone else has a more concerning story, giving that new person the money.
What's interesting is that there are four hosts to the show, and each host has one person with the concern, and they start off by reading the person's concern before the concerned person appears on the show by sliding down a slide. And the pair have matching shirts which is cute haha. There's also guests which are celebrities who also express their judgements and thoughts too.
I have to say that the show is extremely addicting and really really funny. I laugh every time I watch each episode, and I've probably watched 10+ episodes within the first day or two(started watching 2 days ago). It's also interesting to see what sort of problems people have, and how extreme some of them are.
This show is very different to western TV Shows as whenever they talk about these sort of issues, it's very serious and everyone usually leaves angry and annoyed. This TV Show turns the stories into comedy and makes every so funny, everyone laughs at it.
This show has to be one of the funniest I have ever seen. I rate it 9/10, really great. Really recommend this show to give yourself a good laugh!

The Biggest Loser (American TV Show Review)
so I say American, because I'm currently watching last season's American biggest loser. This season is called Second Chances 2 (season 15). I've been watching this program for quite some time now, maybe since the beginning. What I find the most interesting is the peoples life back stories, and also peoples weight loss each week.
Compared to the Australian version I have also watched, they compress one week into just around 40 minutes/ one episode. In the Australian versions I have watched, there are 5 episodes for 1 week. In ways it is good because episodes arn't dragged on, but at the same time, episodes can be too compressed so you don't get to see much on the show, so sometimes there's not as much suspense, but it's still good :)
Some of the stories of contestants on the show are pretty inspiring too. Won't talk about anyone here, but sometimes it makes you realise how lucky your life is compared to some of the people on the show.
Something I realised that feels different for this season is that there's not much fighting or anything. There's no-one that you "hate" and want eliminated. I think this is because they introduced "just the red line". So no yellow line vote to exit the game. I feel like this has caused less drama on the show, though it could be that they're not showing it.
But all in all, most things are same on the show. All in all this is a reality show. I won't rate this one though, but I do feel like this show has changed lives of many people for good and impacts deeply for viewers as well which makes it a very inspiring show. Check it out if you haven't. I just started watching this series today, and I've almost finished episode 7, need to study >< Goodnight!

The Voice Kids Australia (TV Show Review)
Ok so just to let you know, when I say review, I really just mean that I talk about my thoughts on something. Today I decided to watch the first episode of The Voice Kids Australia. So I don't usually watch The Voice(Because I don't really watch TV) but if you know me, you'd know that I do find it interesting hearing child singers sing(fact I was one, but not professional). So when I heard it being advertised, I decided to watch the first episode.
So what is The Voice? Or at least the Kids version anyway. Kids go and stand on a stage a sings a song while the judges (in this case 4) sit in a revolving chair which is initially facing the back of the singer so the judges can only listen to the person's voice, rather than just picking with looks that can affect. When the judge presses the button, it means that they want the child/ children in their team. As the button is pressed, the chair turns around and faces the stage. Once the song ends, the child/children must choose to be in which team. If the judge didn't press the button, then it means that they did't want them in their team and they can't pick that judge. That's for the audition stage anyway.
I think compared to other children versions of reality TV, this one feels less kiddish if you get what I mean. Such that it still feels like The Voice.(Bad explanation huh??)Maybe because the first episode had many children in the tween ages?? Almost everyone shown got through though(in the first episode at least). It makes me wonder if there's a huge selection process before they get to sing in front of the judges as I know from experience that there is many children who sound like they're shouting instead of singing, but all these singers can actually sing, even if they didn't get in.
The only real negative I can say from watching this show is that the judges like to bribe the child(or children), which could influence their choices but other than that I think I quite like this show! I'm up to episode 2 already(watching on demand). All I can say is that I wish this show was in NZ! That's all for this review, bye!
