this BB has to be fun to put it back on the map 26.5.12

i am getting excited,
even my lady friends don't compare,
because every night i will love,
BB with you i will share.
i love the beds,
BB i want to rump,
please stop teasing me,
i am going to slump.
a double pool in the garden,
that dose complement,
its all so amazing,
well worth any rent.
i do have worry s,
they are being brought to your attention,
if its boring crude talk,
please cut and give them no extension.
i hope all have brains,
we need players so we don't snore,
and if they are anything like Faye and Aarron,
BB will be renamed Big Bore.
again, we need fun and games,
and lots of hidden tasks,
so that the HM are on edge,
and there security it masks.
eating chillies, the electric suit, cold showers,
fun has to be dominant,
and if you can do this,
Big Brother will rule TV and be so prominent.

It will never be as popular as it once was. The novelty of reality television has worn off.

If they'd had stopped at 8 before the series really got monotonous or had the whole goodbye thing in BB11 be the last one and then left it 6 years or more, then depending on what the television landscape looked like it may have been popular again, if they did it right.

But channel 5's insistence on not only bringing it back straight away after C4 axed it but packing more and more series into 1 year (in August it's 5 series in 12 months) have made sure it was killed good and proper.

BB8 was where the show got monotonous (CBB5 would have been if it wasn't for the race row).

Tbh I think it was the whole race row which started Big Brother's not so gentle decline into death, the channel was to scared to do anything risky from then on.

The race row killed the show. But I think had the show ended that year or the year after it wouldn't have been though of as dragged out as it has become.

The show's momentum was slowing, but it wouldn't have been such a huge fall in a short space of time had it not been for the race row.

We defo need tension.

Disagree and no.

[Tony1111]

Big Brother will never be relevant again. I'm a huge fan and I love the show. But after it lost popularity and got too controversial it lost viewers. The move to Channel 5 lost it even more credibility. Channel 4 knew it was time to go. Not complaining that is back because I'll still watch it but it won't be big again.

[waterhog]

i think if they went back to basics - it could be - just stop falseing the tension and let it roll.

[Mac Hiavellian]

It needs hype and publicity! I think Channel 5 want something scandalous to happen so BB can be put back in the public's interest. Already Channel 5 have shown Bobby Sabel feeding Darryn Lyons sweat, Mark's penis in BB12 and Denise Welch's tits. It's just Jay sh!tting in the freezer would've been too distasteful for their first run so if BB13 can have enough drunken antics, nudity, rows and controversy people will start talking about it again. After all CBB5 would've been a pretty boring series if the race row hadn't happened and Channel 4's BB relied on scandal from the start with the naked clay painting and Nick cheating and claiming he had a dead wife. Where would BB be without that and Vanessa Feltz's breakdown with the chalk, Sandy p!ssing in a bin and climbing over the wall, PJ and the BJ, the BB4 bomb scare, Fight Night, BB6 pool orgy, Makosi pregnancy, Kinga with the wine bottle, and Pete Burn's Colobus monkey coat being arrested?

[Redway]

There definitely needs to be a nice mix of controversy and tension. Not too much, as that tends to switch off viewers.

[Jordan.]

It'll never be back on the map but no anyway. Fun is boring, last year they let them do whatever they like, gave them alcohol and parties nearly everynight and it was still crap. I'd rather have tension/arguements any day.

[waterhog]

its the people they pick as well - nothing interesting about kirk - deadwood - and all the other loosers - we dont want fame seekers - we want normal people with a bit of thinking power - its not all about what big brother can do for them and there 5 mins of fame - it has to work the other way and also be about what that can bring to big brother.

[Tony1111]

We need a varied mix of people not just a certain group. They need a really good consistent bitch to spice things up. If Rebecca had of stayed in BB12 it would've been so much better because there was no other bitch to take her place. The other girls where all too tame and non-bitchy. If Rebecca had stayed I believe there could have been another fight night.

[waterhog]

disagree - glad rebeckha went as it gives the opertunity for others to shine - you can not be liking someone as you say because they are a b??? as you say - surely that is not something to be proud of.

[Marsh.]

I agree, people like Rebeckah don't just cause fights, they overshadow the others and make everything about them. They need booting out to give the others a chance.

Although, on channel 5, it's the editing's fault. If they didn't make it "The ____ Show" and kept it even and varied with each episode it would be more interesting.

[Tony1111]

No way, I though Rebeckah was awesome. It was that prick Jay and that other dullard Louise along with Tom and Alex who took far too much away from the others. Wait come to think of it the whole cast of BB12 was kinda ****ty.

[armand.kay]

Why can't a series be both fun and have tension/arguments?
I always found that a series that has a balance of both(bb5) is always amazing.

[waterhog]

thats true - maybe a bit of both we need.
