Depressing? I advise you never to watch BB13... and if you have, I have no idea how someone could say CBB11 is more depressing than BB13!

Default This CBB is unimpressive!

This year's CBB has a very poor line-up, was not impressive at all, but let's hope they bring more interesting housemates to the regular BB house.

I agree with the OP. This series has decended into a bit of a mess. BB brought these idiots in to cause mayhem and the game as we know it has become a hot bed of controvosy that has split the viewers into 2 sections, the one section is those that love to see blood and guts and the other section of the viewing public are wrestling with a moral dilema.....do we, or even should we, applaud the tactics these seasoned professional wind up merchants tactics.

Even the other HM,s are struggling to understand how they should act. This poster has decided the program provides the odd snippet of entertainment with people like Razor and Rylan but their antics are often overshadowed by the nastiness provided by 2 gameplayers paid to do a job of work which is designed and built around mahem and the other HM,s inability to get to grips with how and why they are allowed to break the rules and get away with controlling the cameras and storylines.

It is pretty obvious they cant and wont win but this scenario BB have spawned has left us debating where are the other HM,s and why are they not shinning, the simple answer is that Speidi,s antics have overshadowed the whole program and the concept and ethos behind what CBB is has failed in favour of a game that we are not familiar with.

The program has provided some interesting and at times very uncomfortable viewing and this is down to the producers allowing Speidi to control the show. If they had have been oiked mid way, we would no doubt have seen a different ending that we are all familiar with but sadly they let it run and this series wont be remembered for the celebs that were suppressed and forced into doing nothing due to the way the show has been run, it will be remembered for the nastiness brought to the show by 2 people that saw this series as a way to promote themselves as a brand that has little more to offer than trouble and they have wrecked a perfectly good program which may not recover, in fact it might indeed set a precisence for future programs and if I wanted to see this kind of crap, I would watch something like the MMA programs on ESPN.

Speidi in their defence are only doing what they know best and to a degree they are providing what they think is what they have been paid for, that my friends has no place on a family show that we all know, hence the crap we are being force fed and dont recognise.

I have lost a lot of interest in it to be honest, it is in the main about 3 people, Spencer and Heidi and Rylan.
I still watch and always will support and watch BB but I agree with the OP, I too have not enjoyed this series as much as others up to now.

BB has never been a family show, it is always aired after the watershed with usual warnings about nudity and adult content. The version shown by C5 during the day is a watered down version. I suggest if you are looking for a family show you should stick to Splash on Saturday teatime.

Re runs are the following day before the watershed my friend and with little or no edits. Maybe family show was the wrong title but as an entertainment program, it falls short.

The Americans spoiled it for the other housemates, they all seem to hate them, they have been interesting to watch in fact. Not really a fan, Razor akl the way, but they should make the final as they have done a lot.

i always laugh at any BB saying its a family show. if any of the ones that i seen came close to that would be the latest BBAU. i think it sucked they tried to PG that up, though i did enjoy it at times.

I don't know if depressing is the right word... but yes, the series seem to degenerate more and more as time goes on. This one was only saved by villans, which is sad really.

No its not,
the normal Big Brother is not Celebrity Big Brother.

When you have two yanks deliberately hating everyone from the start for no reason then it's very depressing.
I've loved every Big Brother from the beginning but this is awful I really want to love it.
