If there was more and a bit more variety then yes
But with the ones they picked no?

So like all female launch can work but tbis didn't

Yes. The framing of the twist is very channel 4, and they have a cast that represents it much better then Bb8 (which was far too immature to pull it off)

The bb8 cast were too young to do anything with it. The first three episodes were them whinging about no men then chasing after Ziggy.

Here we have an older, more independent group who'll develop their own hierarchy and make it difficult for the men to integrate, which could be fun if the male in question is a douchey Kirk Norcross type.

This. At least they didn't try and pretend that it was anything other than a random twist for the **** of it in BB8, opposed to giving us this "celebrating women's rights" crap that they clearly couldn't care less about.

i have a pretty low opinion of the cast so far, and the theme is going to get annoying really quick

I'm quite content with how it was. The only problem was only 8 housemates - launch night needs more than that.

Yeh, but I like 7 of them and I'm indifferent on 1 so it's better that liking 4 of a cast of 16

That was like the only thing I liked about tonight lol. CBB should always have fewer housemates than BB and 8-12 is the perfect amount. Less than 10 might be pushing it a bit bc of how long the series will probably be but for a 15-22 day long series, it's ideal.

I think another two, at least, would've been better. It feels like it's not a full house, which it's not, but still I find it too sparse.
