Star Quest Vs Big Brother

I'm not sure how many of you are familiar with Star Quest, but it's a musical talent hunt. The contestants have been drawn at random into various bands and the winning band will get a contract. Some of these guys can really sing.

I feel it's a better investment in Nigerian youths than big brother. I don't see anything positive that big brother can add to the housemates apart from the cash, and to get it, you have to be scheming and hypocritical. They might have well just done a draw and given some lucky bastard $100k.

Check out Star Quest here and holla back: www.star-nigeria.com.

Hello dargly, thanks for sharing. On what channels and at what time is the Star Quest reality Tv show broadcast? Is there a way that those abroad can watch it too?

About the impact of reality TV shows: Do you really need a TV show to hunt for a musical band? I don't think so! You need nothing more than a recording studio and a judge with good ears. So why is the Star Quest being broadcast on TV? To entertain us, and nothing more. Which is the same thing Gulder Ultimate Search and Big Brother Nigeria are about. Entertaining TV viewers in order to catch their attention. Whatever happens to contestants after the show is just a side-effect!

Update: Why does their website require visitors to be over 18?

Star Quest is for only people that can sing, Big brother brings people with different talents and of course its not everyone that can sing,

Here are times the show is aired and on what channels -

Nta Network
Monday,Tuesday and Thursday 10-11pm
Sunday, Wednesday,Friday and Saturday 10:30pm


Silverbird TV Everyday 10:30pm

I don't think there's a way those outside Nigeria can watch(unless they subscribe to NTA ). I think their best bet is to make do with online content i.e. Downloads, updates and pictures.

Basically, depending on who is behind any reality show, it's just a commercial gimmick. Makers of Star are carving a niche for themselves in the promotion of music and throwing in some entertainment to boot. It is true that big brother aims at entertainment, but at what cost? I believe that no good comes out of encouraging people to be salacious or treacherous just to be the last man standing.

@Badman
Yes starquest is strictly for people that are musically talented, but what do the inmates of Big brother do to display or market their talents?

@Seun i dey feel you man !

Guys, what do u think of the just concluded Star Quest? How does it compare with Gulder Ultimate Search?

Hi guys,
star quest was definitely a great show. i was happy to see nigerian youths put their talents to good use.
the winning band D'ACCORD were winners from the minute the band was formed as far as i am concerned.
comparing it to ultimate search is tough coz they r both great shows and organised by d same nigerian breweries.

GOODAY SIR
I wont to register with star quest 2007 please direct me on how to go about it.

Thanks

Hello, Did you guys actually do this show?

I am interested in a Talent show in Nigeria as I am originally a Nigerian, but I can't do Music because I am not good at it, I found out about Nigeria Talent Hunt (www.NigeriaTalent.com or www.NigeriaTalentHunt.com) starting registration on 31st of January 2012, can anyone in Nigeria help me pay N4,000 the screening fees, I will buy you anything worth N5,000 in return from UK or send you the money by western union.

I seriously want to go on the show, or tell me if you know any talent show where I can come to Nigeria and display my talent. Please let me know (jasedu60@yahoo.com)

I really want to be on this show because so many Nigerian in UK are talking about it and it's coming on Nigeria Television Authority and also on BEN TV UK and I love one of the Judges (Ini Edo), I hope she like me.

Please fellow Nigerians, I am not a begger, I'm willing to pay
