Is it really possible to deliberately go out to become 'tv gold' and succeed ? I really struggle with the self declared tv gold thing, 'it's the Perez show' blah blah.

For me these things simply are not the case if you have to declare them.

I would normally agree with you OP.

However, in this case Perez is justified in his assertion on both counts.

He is TV Gold, and it really is the Perez show.

He is tv gold

It depends what type of TV you like to watch - give him his own show, take him off BB and let me see the other characters real personalities happy as well as under stress and thats the kind of TV I personally want to see

We had a glimpse of what the show would be like inside the main house without Perez over the last two days, and what did the other HMs do they talked about and moaned about Perez.....
