I haven't watched any highlights yet today, but does Helen get more interesting as the weeks go on as an individual? Because so far she seems like a nice girl but extremely dull.

She's ditzy in an amusing way. But compared to a lot of recent "ditzy" housemates, she's Einstein. |

Stuart does not do more than Penny, that's the biggest lie in this thread

I said that BB2 kinda sucked and nothing happened and then I had people jumping down my throat telling me to explain myself, so I did.

I find it hard remembering when I actually liked Narinder and her friendship with Brian.
Nowdays I can't stand her. |

Nobody jumped down your throat, people merely asked for more specifics on what you didn't like because you made a couple of vague statements about "plot movement". The discussion then went in another direction when you made the comment that people only like it due to nostalgia.

The statements I made weren't any less vague than the series in question was itself; BB2 lacking forward plot movement and any sort of development is kind of commonplace when discussing BB2.
The conversation turned in a different direction when I said that the argument COULD be made (not even that I agree with it) that BB4 had more going on than BB2 and thus could be seen as better. But apparently it's ludicrous to give BB4 any credit despite the fact that most of the vocal BB4 haters haven't seen it since it aired it haven't even seen it.

Assuming the only reason I like it is due to nostalgia, which is ridiculous. |

So ridiculous that you started talking about the nostalgic appeal right after!

I wasn't going on about nostalgia.
I was talking about how I prefer Big Brother to be about a group of stranger getting to know one another. The live feeds watching them having long conversations. Not the overflow "story lines" and constant bitching and arguing. Staging and blowing things out of proportion for the cameras. The same went for last summer. I loved the small amount of live feed we'd get, watching the housemates settle down after an eviction and discuss the night's/or the previous week's events. That's not nostalgia, that's a preference of what I'd like to see in the highlights show. Telling me I only like BB2 because of nostalgia, is because I'm remembering 2001 and only like it because of how everything was back in 2001. Romanticising the past by forgetting the bad parts. Or having some strong personal affinity with that time. I don't, I barely remember 2001. It isn't. It's how I prefer the show in 2014 too. Last edited by Marsh.; 23-05-2014 at 07:09 PM. |

Do keep up. But every now and then we're able to watch housemates engage in conversation. They just need to set the casting net wider than a pool of good looking, brainless models who have no social skills. Last edited by Marsh.; 23-05-2014 at 07:24 PM. |

Narinder's a strange one, she's likeable around Brian but horrible around everyone else lol, yet I still find her the most fascinating one in there.

Ok thanks BigSister, I hope you're right as I'm not getting how she manages to beat Paul by such a landslide and get 2 million votes against Brian.

Why not get back to discussing what the OP meant and discuss the fact they are watching BB2. Gotta say I like hearing the opinions of BB fans who watch the earlier Big Brothers for the first time as a lot of the younger members have an opinion of BB1/2 as boring so wont watch them. Got Patrick to watch BB3 and its one of his top series now hope your enjoying the series op |
