BB2 is too old, I watched BB3 but I won't go any older

[LeatherTrumpet]

I loved that series, lol at Bubble in The Office

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Such good memories of that summer and BB2 was a huge part of it

Last year of school, all of us used to stay in to watch the evictions with some beers before going out then get back home at 2am kip on the living room floor and watch early morning live feed lol.

Its a rare *funny series but has some really good arguments, enjoy

I remember how novel it was to watch them asleep when you were having breakfast

Thanks Daniel-Lewis, I think I might watch another one in a minute just to see if my opinions change.

Penny is a goddess; Bubble and Stuart are demons.

The series kinda actually sucks though! There's no plot whatsoever and nothing happens after, like, Week 4. It really might be worse than BB4, the only thing it has going for it is nostalgia.

Depends what you mean by "plot"?

Yeah it's not suppose to be TOWIE.

[Macie Lightfoot]

Literally nothing happens and there are no storylines, which is kind of important.

[Marsh.]

"Literally nothing happens", well that's an exaggeration at best and an outright lie at worst.

[Mystic Mock]

Can someone help me find the 2nd episode of BB2 please? I keep trying to find it but it's nowhere to be seen.

[Marsh.]

Someone's posted it in 3 parts on youtube.

Well then what happens? The entire second half (and a good amount of the first half too) is just a shapeless mass of micro interactions that are interesting individually, but blur together collectively. There's no forward plot movement at all.

What do you class as a forward plot movement?

[Macie Lightfoot]

Actual storylines and moments and other things BB2 lacks. There's no development because nothing happens, just people talking about house politics despite nothing going on.

But, again, you're not being specific. What "story lines" are missing? What is a story to you?

[Macie Lightfoot]

I can't be specific about BB2 storylines because there weren't any. Maybe if you're the one defending BB2 so much (out of nostalgia) you should be the one to mention specifics. After Week 3 or 4 there are no storylines or forward plot movement or anything, it's just a shapeless series of small interactions that are meaningless and forgettable. The only things that can be considered storylines are Brian hating Josh (which is reoccurring at best) and Helen and Paul's relationship (which doesn't even pick up steam until the penultimate week.) HMs like Amma had potential but were flawed, and HMs like Dean and Elizabeth you wonder what they even thought they were auditioning for.

[Marsh.]

Where did I say I like BB2 out of nostalgia?

You're the one making a big fuss and trying to make points so you're the one who is required to back them up.

Your mention of Josh and Brian shows that you need enemies battling throughout Gina and Hazel style or arguments all of the time. Well, BB wasn't all about that at the beginning.

The small moments, the tasks, everything was a bigger focus back then and the big draw.

Give me normal human interaction, seeing how people form friendships etc over arguing for the sake of the camera any day of the week.
Dean and Elizabeth auditioned for the experience, sorely lacking from recent years.

[Macie Lightfoot]

I'm not making any fuss about it at all, your constant interrogation would imply that you're in fact the one making a fuss.

And me mentioning Josh and Brian doesn't show that I need enemies battling it out through arguments all the time. If you stopped making things up and started to actually read my posts, you'd see that the reason I mentioned them was because Brian hating Josh for daring to be gay or whatever was one of the very few actually storylines in the whole series, and even then it was a recurring storyline at best that didn't have any development or forward plot movement. The second half of BB2 blends together because it's five weeks of meaningless interactions that have no effect on anything. BB4 did a better job of plot movement and having actually, tangible storylines and for that alone it can be considered better than BB2.
