i would like to see what another channel does with it but i do think that it will never be a social experiment again, HM's are too clued up now

hello fellow blue
if they made it like the  American BB,  that would be great but i don't know how they would make money from it.

hi strike

never seen the american BB - what is different?

you have to watch it you tube barney, it can be quite vicious, backstabbing galore  
the voting is done by the HMs

thanks

may take a peep - sounds interesting

I keep forgetting the pointless twat is even in there till someone reminds me.

I hated American BB when I saw it a few years ago. All their system did was allow the 'cool' clique or gang of bullies to get rid of all the reasonable people.
BB would survive if another channel took it on and brought it right back to basics, which was what got us all hooked in the first place. Strict adherence to the rules being number one priority. Whatever Phil Edgar-Jones thinks, we don't WANT a sodding 'soap opera'. If we did, we'd watch a soap instead.

Haven't seen jj2 do or say anything interesting, no clue why he had so many cheers, he's dull

I do, its the 'J.J factor'  Even the dislikable  Keeva shot up in popularity the moment she befriended him!

Much as I have been disappointed by this series, I'm such a BB addict that I am very sorry to be losing it, and wish as Toid says that someone else took it over and went back to how it was in first few series. The viewing figures have dropped so that I don't know whether any other network would be brave enough to take it on.

Excellent  Deman and I couldn't agree more,  I hated the USA BB..utter rubbish with "vile jealous bullehs galore". Also agree regarding the Soap Opera take on things. BB has been on its last legs for years, with this years debacle, its well and truly snuffed it.

I never liked US BB either. All the people I disliked most would have prospered if it was like that here. Aisleyne would have been gone the moment Grace and her clique set eyes on her for example!

oh dear God dont let JJ2 win.  he is soooooooooooooo frigging boring! 

I agree it would be much better if they went back to some of the original format.  First of all they had routine things to do - they had to bake all their own bread, look after the chickens and a bit of vegetable garden.  I think they had a limited amount of reading matter, and one of them certainly had a guitar.  This meant that they had things to do and means to entertain themselves.  All these things have been withdrawn so now the housemates have absolutely nothing to do and can only sit around bored out of their skulls waiting for tasks, which is a recipe for meltdown.

It's too late to save Big Brother now.
The original idea has been changed beyond recognition.
It's impossible to re-capture it.
Such a pity it is bowing out and a very poor series.


As for Joe-John getting cheers.
I suppose most of the fans and voters are just for a housemate's looks.
I think Joe John is ordinary and I think John James is bland and not at all good looking.
But look at the competition.....

I thoroughly agree Brisket.  I had to laugh when some of the hm's were in the kitchen discussing how wonderful it was to be on the last ever BB and Steve said, something along the lines of BB1 will be rememberd too even "tho it were rubbish". For me it was the best ever. At least what you were seeing was as near reality as possible, unlike the caricatures (sic) fame hungry wanabees we have now. BB has died a slow and painful death.
