I'd rather it be axed now than it be run even further into the ground past the point of it even being able to return to a good viewing figure in the future after a lengthy break.

And by 'break' I mean C5 cancelling it and it getting picked up by a different channel (ITV/ITV2 or C4 preferably) in a decades time or so.
I think its doomed, i dont think the producers will listen to our ideas or take them into consideration. They think they are boss when they really suck and need to be fired.

Even in bb14 live feed they just gave up and we've not even had an online substitute since. ...bb is the original and had people watching at their desks whilst working a boring 8 hour day ....this is what made big brother a reality TV show.

I used to LIVE for BB when it was on Channel 4. Couldn't miss a single episode and the episodes never seemed to last long enough. Just seemed to whizz by because it was so entertaining!
This year i missed nearly an entire week in one go (and a day or two here and there) and when i watched again it felt like i'd missed nothing.

It's hard to know whether it would save it by putting it back to basics and getting real people instead of these losers they have these days. Compared to the crap they just gave us it would surely be worth a try though, surely ?

Do you think maybe Some people remember old big brother with rose tinted glasses? Not sure how well they would hold up if you watched them now and compared then to the recent series.

The show is way less genuine today than what it was on C4.
But that's all the cases for reality tv shows that were not influenced by social media and less focused on housemates/participants concerned about their fame or followers. It's not just BB specific.

BB3/5/6 I think are above the rest, and that seems to be a common ground for most of the fan base.

Not really. A lot of people around here re-watch series and there are discussion threads dedicated to it. And clips/moments are brought up and discussed.

Also, it doesn't take an excellent series to hold up against the tripe they make now.
