A great thief
|
Ok so I've started CBB8 bc I've never ACTUALLY watched it and I know it gets a bad rep and it's supposed to be boring and dull and whatever but we'll see shall we! And we all know my horrific track record of getting through BBUK series so I'll probably have given up by Day 3 but for now:
Launch 01 | Tara Reid 02 | Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff 03 | Sally Bercow 04 | Lucien Laviscount 05 | Kerry Katona 06 | Amy Childs 07 | Jedward 08 | Paddy Doherty 09 | Darryn Lyons 10 | Bobby Sabel This launch was a whole MESS but I'd be lying if I said if I didn't enjoy it everyone seems really likeable so far which I wasn't expecting Some personal highlights / thoughts: - Tara taking so long to get down the runway bc she’d take a step before turning and posing again and then when Brian goes to hug her but she turns and starts posing again lmaooo <3 - And then in comparison Amy stomps down and gets through it in about 5 seconds - Tara retelling her horrific story about how the door wouldn’t open for her everytime someone new enters the house <333 - Darren talking about Kerry & Amy in his VT and using his parrot’s feathers as hair extensions - Sally calling out the Daily Mail whilst Brian is interviewing her ahhhh - Tara just standing around awkwardly, she’s so out of place it’s a scream - Lucien is so FIT and charming ugh please don’t be a disappointment - Pamela struggling to even get down the stairs in her massive heels before dancing and teetering her way down the runway - Her just messing about as Brian tries to her interview her AHHH ‘we know you’re a clean freak, did you bring any rubber gloves with you? ’ ‘oh darling you’re such a BUTTERCUP x’ - Kerry on her way to the Diary Room like ‘ooh it smells of brand new carpets x’ dead normal relatable queen |

(Spencer and Lynne are drinking cider)
Lynne: “What kind of music are *you* into? ” Spencer “... I like a mixture of things. ” Lynne: “I like, stuff like, Massive Attack, Morcheeba...” Spencer: “Do you like Prodigy?” Lynne: “Ehhh WHAT” Spencer: “Prodigy” Lynne: “Prodigy, yeah. YOU’RE VERY SELF ASSURED. ” Spencer: “What do you mean?” Lynne: “I THINK YOU’RE QUITE COCKY. ” Spencer: “Ha… is that a compliment or an insult? ” Lynne: “It’s not so much an insult… I just think that you’re very young, how young are ye, 22? I- I- Me being at my age now, I find it quite hard to comprehend a person of your age, a GUY of your age, to be as self assured and as cocky as ye are. I find that quite hard to comprehend because you don’t really have that much living behind you do ye? Why do you think you’re like that? Why do you think you’ve got that don’t give a **** attitude?” Spencer: “I haven’t?” Lynne: I think you do!” Spencer: “I’m telling you I haven’t.” Lynne: “I’m trying to look on it from an objective point of view, and from a subjective point of view…” Sunita: (walks over) “What are you looking at?” Lynne: “I’m trying to understand why he’s so cocksure!” Sunita: “What do you mean cocksure?” Lynne: “I think he’s got a certain arrogance that I didn’t have at his age. And I’m trying to understand why he’s like that.” The conversation continues, Spencer decides he’s had enough and walks off. Lynne looks at Sunita like this: Alex walks over and tells Lynne that he agrees with her |

I don't recall her telling him any of those things, I could've sworn it was more that she neither confirmed or denied his grilling questions like that. I've always held the blame to both of them so I never really had a personal problem with how either of them were behaving in this case.

Sandy fuming over the housemates making a birthday cake for Lee “I mean if we’ve barely got any sugar, you don’t go and make things like CAKE do you? I MEAN THAT’S JUST BASIC ”
Also Sunita announces that she’s leaving and Sandy comes out with “I’m no surprised ^_^” fff Lynne’s hatred of Spencer is such a howl Spencer: “Promise me one thing you’ll guarantee me. Your bed and your baccy.” Sunita: “Not all my baccy because I ****ing… I’ll give you baccy.” Lynne: “OH WAIT A MINUTE. Sunita: “I’ll give you baccy.” Lynne: “WAIT A MINUTE. You’re just going to walk into the bedroom without even asking anyone’s permission?” Sunita: “No he’s going to come into the BED.” Lynne: “As long as that’s alright by you then that’s fine. Not going to say to anyone else?” Spencer: “Do you mind if I come into the bedroom?” Lynne: “ACTUALLY YES I DO. I’ll take your ****ing dick off I’m telling you. So ****ing dare it.” Spencer: “Take my dick off? ” Lynne: “Yeah. Just don’t presume honey ok.” Spencer: “So you mind if I sleep in that room?” Lynne: “I mind the fact that you presume?” Spencer: “That was my question, my question was do you mind if I come and sleep in that room?” Lynne: “… YEAH. ” Last edited by Matthew.; 17-08-2019 at 11:00 AM. |

I’m watching CBB22 now bc it’s the one year anniversary <3 I’m such a romantic queen x
Tbf I wasn’t really invested at the time because I was more excited for BB19; I skipped a few eps of CBB22 and didn’t really form an opinion on most of the cast as I was SIMPLY only caring for the upcoming BB19. HOWEVER that is one of my biggest regrets looking back x So I’m gonna treat this as a first watch and try to forget any feelings I had on the HM’s whilst it was on air. The episodes I missed could make a difference! Xx

Haven't really posted in a while but I'm in the middle of BB17 funale and want to record these final thoughts before I do one last writeup!
-Laura's final week alol such a disaster It's only fitting that someone who overcame so many odds and made it so far just happened to completely lose her mind and blow up in the eleventh hour, ultimately succumbing to the craziness that is Big Brother UK. Watching her slowly saunter around the house and confront every single person who voted to evict her during Annihilation Week, listening to her repeatedly tell Sam that she's not mad, just disappointed... it all just worked for me. -HOWEVER, oh my god BOTS has been horrendous about her all season, repeatedly booing her and cheering wildly at whatever panelist slut shames her for the Marco bull**** and then just giving baseless statements like "what else is there left for her to do?!?! When she's not having sex she's BORING" like god BBUK sexism is such a particularly infuriating kind of sexism. -Late game Jayne is sooooo much better than early game Jayne. She's so much more in her element when she's the kooky MORP grandma than when she's arguing with Natalie about black carers. -Evelyn's meltdown after the courtroom task was everything to me. Just the aesthetic of her awkwardly walking in a trance towards the fire exit and breaking through while sobbing hysterically like...... wow so glad the public finally came around to her and realized that she earned her place in the final. -Jason like... I don't even know. I can't bring myself to fully hate him but oh my GOD I just can't stand to listen anymore to the whole ~is he a gameplayer~ debates and his subsequent meltdowns. I do think he's genuine in the fact his meltdowns are legitimate and not playing up to the cameras but like.. of course people are going to think you're a gameplayer when you say in front of everyone that you evicted Lateysha for tactical reasons? I don't know, part of me blames production more than Jason but his post-Charlie weeks are really a particularly egregious example of that late-C5 feedback loop where someone's actions and words are put under a microscope and repeatedly scrutinized to the point of insanity.

I know it’s only been the launch but I love Kirsty I don’t even remember liking her as much when I first watched but she’s a QUEEN
Also it sorta freaks me out when Roxanne said in her VT that she will unravel, then Emma saying to her “yeah everyone unravels but I can’t see it getting ugly with you”

And I’m not really a fan of Ryan but I love his friendship with Kirsty and it’s cute how they stuck together throughout the whole series, from being elected together on launch to being the last 2 standing (although Kirsty should’ve won )

BB17 Series Edgic, Ranking, and Thots:
1. Laura (duh. Dumb tit girl who had explicitly rough sex in the first days (!!) of the show turned CPM remorseful advocate of girl code and resident truth teller of the house turned star-crossed lover who enjoyed a transoceanic reunion with Long Lost Lover Bernardo turned OTTM psychopath who melted the **** down when people nominated her and tried to evict her and wouldn't save her. She wasn't mad, she was just disappointed. Laurita went through so many ****ing stages in that house and defied so many odds and she really was just such a joy to watch ) 2. Charlie (okay but where does she stand, Jason?!?!?! I've already highlighted this so many times in the thread but Charlie/Jason *IS* the pinnacle of human interaction. I never grew bored because their kind of strained relationship is exactly what I watch this show for. I think they both knew each other extremely well and they both ended up being right about each other -- Jason was correct that she's ****ing insane and a huge bunny boiler, but Charlie was also correct that he's in it to win it and playing the game and probably not being his true self) 3. Evelyn (immature and vapid and a blatant 20 year old who at first seemed like she was way in over her head, but she actually became a righteous force who stood up for what she believed in and was ALWAYS there to tear Jackson the **** down whenever he tried to pull some audience pandering bull**** about The Game and The Money. The Alex stuff was booooooring and dreadful, but Evelyn's just a fun personality who wanted to have a good time and wanted US to have a good time watching her) 4. Jayne (I wasn't really here for OTTM early stage Jayne when she was getting in weird racially-tinged fights with Natalie and having overrated DR meltdowns. I was here for fun kooky MORP house mum Jayne who did a great job of taking on the role of Mother Hen of the house once everyone decided that she was actually better than Chelsea and he ****ed right off) 5. Emma (borderline UTR a lot of the time but randomly became the unsung hero for waiting until after nominations to read Jacksina to filth They were soooo awful to her but she held her own so calmly and rationally with arguments like "we're actually not that different of people, you're just using that as an excuse so you don't have to actually try to get to know me" and "yeah I nominated your girlfriend, I don't really like her and that's the point of nominations :duh:" I was sad to see her get removed but I guess it's poetic that she suffered the same fate as her sister. Glad she was at least able to go out in a blaze of glory by spending fictitious house points to see her boyfriend twice and angering the entire house ) 6. Victoria (I like her as much as you can like someone who quit on Day 4 after preaching about aliens and sobbing about the dead corpses of meat in the fridge?) 7. Jason (SOMEHOW still #7 for me?!?! He's not a very telegenic person but I appreciated his role for a while and loooooved the foil that her served to Our Charlie. However, once she was evicted and Annihilation Week happen he kinda got on my nerves a looooot and the show wouldn't stop with the continual loop of "but is Jason... a gameplayer?!?!?!" which would lead to him repeatedly threatening to quit. The last third was legitimately disappointing and taints my overall view of him but I still appreciate him as a random and unconventional winner) 8. Lateysha (ultimately harmless BUT she was undeniably the figurehead of the bitchy gross bedroom clique and her top allies were like... Georgina and Hughie and Sam and ****ing Ryan of all people so no thank you. That being said, she was decently charming in her own right and played her role as the DR narrator well? But ultimately I can't name any funny Lateysha moments or any instances where I really sided with her because she was just kinda empty airtime. Pleasant! But empty nonetheless. 9. Natalie (I was LOVING her for a while but quickly grew stale of her. However, this cast is the epitome of mixed feelings so she's still my #9 somehow?! Like, I don't even know *how* Natalie arguments would start but I would be eating a snack and next thing I know she'd be screeching at someone and going all GO COMB YOUR COMBOVER and TALK TO THE HAND and 'SCUSE ****ING ME and I was enthralled. That being said, it quickly became sooooo tiring and stale and I grew sick of it because it ran its course rather quickly. She was also kind of a gross slut-shamer when it came to Jayne despite being a sex worker and that's some Helen Wood bull**** that just irks me. Also like.... what compelled her to come on the show in the first place?! She was clearly miserable and lacked the social skills to socialize with anyone) 10. Hughie (I GUESS he's ostensibly nice and vulnerable but I still have no ****ing clue how he was a runaway odds favorite when he's basically Traveler Rodrigo. Like... he was insanely immature and needlessly inserted himself into conflict and never let things go AND he had gross sex with Ryan, but of course the public finds it endearing when he does it but hates Natalie and Laura when they do their stuff I GUESS I'll give him some credit for turning the first question in his finale interview into an opportunity for him to resume a blood feud with Natalie, someone who he hadn't seen or presumably thought of in 32 days) 11. Andy (EXHAUSTING oh my god like his time in the house was exhausting to watch and then his fandom is ****ing INSANE. Frustratingly smug to the point where he's not even enjoyable when he's righteous, became a central character to the show despite not really being compelling enough to take on the role, the show forcing us to end like every third episode with an ANDY'S THOUGHTS DR session... eek. THAT BEING SAID, he was occasionally endearing and charming and righteous and there was THROWN OFF BUILDINGS so he's not entirely awful? Such a ****ing mixed bag though) 12. Alex (alol remember when I was a low-key Alex defender for the first two weeks? What a ****ing boring human! I'm intrigued by how the entire house was dickmatized by him and I still think he's A Decently Good Person which is rare on these shows, but the Evelyn thing was booooooring and he also mumbled something about her being a warm body for him to snuggle up against and then kick out of bed the next morning?) 13. Georgina (alol I think I've documented this so many times already. She unequivocally suuuuucks as a human because she's sour and bitchy and SAY IT TO MA FACE XX and hugely hypocritical but man did she not have an all-time great BBUK downfall?! Like her personality is tooootally red, but the circumstances of her stay are juuust enough to bump her up to yellow) 14. Ryan (okay so he totally should be in RED because he's repulsive to at least three of my five senses BUT part of me was expecting worse and I'm so embarrassed by this but part of me kinda found him funny and amusing?!?!?! Like BARELY maybe 7.5% of the time so not often at all and I still notionally hate him buuuut he's in yellow :3) 15 Sam (I actually have nothing to say. The most blatant example of MORM being the base rating of BBUK because you can get it so ****ing easily just by living your life) 16. Marco (actually much better than I feared but is still like..... permanently hyperactive as a result of brain damage from cocaine and clearly Not A Good Person and there's really no scenario where I would ever enjoy him) 17. Chelsea (I can't even put into words WHAT makes Chelsea particularly unpleasant, but he laughably saw himself as the alpha of the house while everyone else openly laughed at him and grew tired of him rather quickly. Also his entire existence was calling Jayne a gold-digging bitch so he's not even the good kind of MORN) 18. Andrew (just really gross on a human level and creepy and disgusting when you factor stuff from outside the show, but then in the show he just gave obnoxious DRs about how brilliant his gameplay was when everyone hated him and viewed him as a joke useless) 19. Jackson (everything about him is so blatantly full of **** and consciously crafted to pander to the public, but for once the C5 feedback loop actually turned out okay because it led to like five separate instances where Evelyn read him for filth at least?! still got third place though somehow ) All in all it was a good and fun series that was largely enjoyable! The editing was balanced, house dynamics were pretty fleshed out, characters were prominent enough where you surely have opinions on most of them (albeit a lot of mine are huuugely mixed as you can see), and it was a nice return to Good Big Brother after the horrors that were 15 and 16. I will say that the show did kinda drag in the mid-end game, around the Charlie boot and Annihilation Week, but then the last week kinda got things back together again and improved and we were able to end on a pretty decent now. I think it's pretty on par with 18 where it has its fair share of flaws but ultimately a lot of things go right and it's probably about as good as modern BBUK could have been. Not sure which one I rate higher but they're probably right next to each other in my season ranking that doesn't really exist.

Narinder calling Helen 'Hilda' and 'Miss Joan Collins' when saying how Helen keeps staring at her and saying Penny is too 'mumsy' in the diary room, only making it to this recap episode . These actually include some pretty funny moments that aren't on the main highlight's show.

1. Narinder (-) 2. Brian (-) 3. Penny (-) 4. Helen (-) 5. Amma (-) 6. Bubble (+1) 7. Elizabeth (+1) 8. Paul (+2) 9. Dean (-) 10. Stuart (-4) Stuart was such a prick to Penny making some joke about her and Paul being a couple and then not taking her giving a joke back when she says "Fuck you arsehole" to him, then swaying her to apologize and then not even accepting her apology till the day after when he made sure she could feel extra guilty |
