Default Lack of character development this series...

Can we touch upon this? I barely feel like we know people STILL and it's a month in, they don't show any casual chats any more so we can't get to know the HMs except for arguments, drama, tasks and showmances.

This is an attribute that is making this series one of the worst imo..

Been some terrible editing. We are hardly shown any fun or normal chats. A late night online feed would of been nice. Can't believe we had it for the worst CBB series in recent history and it was axed.

I said the editing is the worst ever this series, I'm glad I wasn't the only one. This series has been SO dire, [And Matthew was not even in my top 4]

I agree, most of them I know nothing about or even care about. They are existing and that's all. No storyline at all. The only thing Channel 5 jump upon is a showmance.

The editing is awful and I hate to keep repeating the same thing but the producers thinking all we want to see is bitching and arguments is ruining the highlight shows.

Don't get me started on the showmances.

We need a balance. I want to watch the housemates having normal conversations and so on.

I agree that the editing has been really terrible this series. It seems like they only seem to focus on a select few people in each episode, which leaves a lot of people.

I feel like I know very little about Steven and Christopher in particular. I'm not saying they're entertaining people by any means, but I'm sure they're at least having normal conversations in the house, which would be nice to see.

I think all the negativity and hostility is reflecting onto the forums too.

You said it all!

Also, normal nominations! We need to see how they really feel about each other.

We aren't seeing much of the fun, open, honest and caring sides to people as everything is all about fighting, scheming, bitching. It's not great but no way near the worst BB IMO. I may be in the minority but I have enjoyed it a lot more since channel 5 took over compared to the final years on channel 4

The nominations are definitely one of my favourite parts of the show, so I have no idea why they've practically tried to abandon them this series.

The only decent thing they've done this year is cut down on the tacky editing and music segments. Marcus was still horrendous on the week 1 task though.

The only down side is that they have been showing VT of noms so will we see true opinions or just watered down ones in case it's shown. Diary room noms should never be shown to any other housemate IMO.

BBUSA looks like it's gonna have a much better year than the UK.

I haven't watched all the episodes yet so I don't know who leaves.

And back onto BBUK, losing Pauline in the 2nd week was a big mistake as the main villain of every BB series at least lasts 5 weeks normally, the series already feels like it's near it's end because she was stopped before she was able to cause enough carnage.

YES Me and my mum talk about this constantly and we were only saying the other day we don't really know any of the housemates and its driving us crazy. I mean I don't want constant chats and other things people might call boring but just dropping a few into the show cant do any harm

This couldn't be anymore false, the series picked up dramatically once Pauline was evicted. This series hasn't missed her presence at all.

Agreed unfortunately they seem to think dropping in an occasional Mark moment or someone jumping in a pool makes up for all of the negativity.
