Yahoo News Ex on the Beach is accused of 'scraping the barrel'
Just when you thought you had your fill of vaguely-attractive people in a villa saying silly things on TV, here comes MTV's Ex on the Beach again.
The show is notorious for featuring people who already have reality TV history – this time around it's Natalee from MTV's South Wales-based The Valleys and Daisy from E4's Made in Chelsea. One of them was a pleasant surprise for viewers, the other was Daisy from E4's Made in Chelsea:
Oh she is. She’s the reason I stopped watching Made In Chelsea #Gutted #ExOnTheBeach

Omg! I loved Natalee on The Valleys!! I hope she’s just the same on this 💥 #ExOnTheBeach

Is Daisy the really annoying one from Made In Chelsea? #ExOnTheBeach

Zayn (no, not the one who left One Direction) didn't exactly endear himself...:

Zayn, you might rate the girls a 6.8 but I don’t think they rate you at all! Pipe down with the cockiness! #ExOnTheBeach

Do you remember that time on Love Island when Hayley Hughes thought Brexit would result in the UK having no trees and everyone tweeted about it?
The cast of Ex on the Beach can do that too! Except only one person tweeted about it during the initial broadcast:
“What do you think about Brexit?
“What’s that? Is that a country?”
But as long as they have good teeth, good body and a tan that’s all that matters to this generation, eh? #ExOnTheBeach- 𝙈𝙄𝙎𝘼𝙉𝙏𝙃𝙍𝙊𝙋𝙀 (@CHR1S_) August 15, 2018
Overall, people are felling pretty nonplussed about the whole thing:
#ExOnTheBeach this has got to be the most boring season premiere

They are proper scrapping the barrel with this lot this year, they get worse every year #ExOnTheBeach
- Gemma (@GemmaSlack13) August 15, 2018
I think it’s shit so far #ExOnTheBeach bit bored
- kirstie (@kirstiebcfc) August 15, 2018
Have they cut the budget or changed the production team on @mtvex ? The whole thing feels a bit cheap compared to previous years #ExOnTheBeach
- Mike (@fkjfu) August 15, 2018

Ex on the Beach continues next Wednesday (August 22) at 10pm on MTV. Maybe then we'll start to like this year's cast. Maybe...
