BBUK vs. BBUS - Big Brother 2012 (series 13) - ThisisBigBrother.com

Jords · 12-07-2012, 04:20 PM

With BBUS starting tonight (

) I thought Id do a poll for fans of both - which do you prefer?

Public poll.

Marc · 12-07-2012, 04:28 PM

BB US tbh, BB UK is slowly dying

Yayita · 12-07-2012, 04:28 PM

Do you have to wait til the next day to watch BBUS, or is there someway to get it the same day? I usually download it the next day from torrents.

BigBrotherfan4ever · 12-07-2012, 04:29 PM

Only ever watch it BBUS, one series when they had it on one of the digital channels, but I think I prefer BBUK, btw can we watch this new series on any of digital channels this time around.

lostalex · 12-07-2012, 04:30 PM

i love them both. BBUK and BBUS always have such great characters.

If it's just based on the game aspect, then i prefer BBUS, but i love BBUK because we get daily shows and get to see so much more of them.

They are both great.

If BBUK still had live feed, then i'd say BBUk is better.

Streaming is glitchy so I usually wait until theyre uploaded on YT. Sometimes I wait up or just wait the next day

Black Dagger · 12-07-2012, 04:32 PM

I've never really got into BBUS

I think it's the fact that it isn't the public deciding and what-not so all my favourites could go because they aren't popular and stuff.

Plus all the finals I've seen don't seem to have any tension to them or anything IMO.

I will check some of this series out though.

Roy Mars III · 12-07-2012, 04:33 PM

Probably BBUS, even though i haven't liked any of the season since 10. I just love the game playing aspect of it

Yeah me too. Maybe because Ive only seen 2 series and its still all fresh and new to me.

DrunkerThanMoses · 12-07-2012, 04:37 PM

Big Brother USA, and like Roy says not like it since season 10, but thankfully one of the best players is returning tonight

I like the strategic part of the show, which is why I liked this season more when they could talk about nominations.

wendywillow · 12-07-2012, 04:38 PM

i like both in different ways, bbuk more entertaining tasks, better production values etc, bbus a lot more drama, alliances, backstabbing etc, plus 24/7 feeds/3 hours a day on showtime, now combine the two then we got something!

Im excited to see what Dan and Janelle are all about!

BBUSA is good because atleast you know what it's all about. it's a gam,e and everyone knows it, and to me it's nice having something to judge it on.

The confusing thing about BBUK is that you don't know if yur suppossed to judge it on a popularity contest or as a game.

I like that BBUSA knows what it is, and it doesn't apologize for being a game. You know exactly what you are getting, and all the houseguests also know that they are playing a game.

lostalex · 12-07-2012, 04:43 PM

The way that BBUK pretends to be a psychological experiment and is fvoking with the housemates minds makes me uncomfortable sometimes.

Niamh. · 12-07-2012, 04:45 PM

Never watched BBUS

it's funny that you say that, because most BBUS fans complain when the public has too much control over stuff, like with evil dick and america's player lol. Most BBUS fans hate whenever the American public get's to decide anything lol.

Petershaw1984 · 12-07-2012, 04:56 PM

Currently will say bbus as the uk one is boring me

Adamw92 · 12-07-2012, 05:14 PM

swinearefine · 12-07-2012, 05:19 PM

Public poll.

BBAfrica is better

Your Poll does not have that.

reece(: · 12-07-2012, 05:29 PM

Well theres feeds on US, so that tops it for me. I like more seasons of US than UK.

A pure popularlity contest is likely to be very boring (Glass House), so I think it is better to mix things rather than go to that extreme.

Donovan81996 · 12-07-2012, 05:52 PM

BBUS but I will still be watching both.

starry · 12-07-2012, 05:53 PM
