Default This series is fab SO FAR!

- Great mix of drama of fun.

- We've had no manipulating twists (BB16 had already had the eviction launch twists and the car cash prize twist). All we've had is firing cannon balls and 2 HM entering on day 2.


- great editing on the HL

- Marcus isn't so bad this series

- we've at least got another 6 days with these HM's - eviction isn't till Friday.

- Feels like producers are just letting the HM's cause their own drama/fun. (the producers feel distant in this series).

- more live feed

- Emma seems better now

- it's on at 9pm

- great bunch of HM's


Of course it's only been 4 days but still... BB16 was already quite boring and very controversial at this point.

Brilliant so far, I just hope it stays this way and doesn't crash and burn like many other series with promising starts.

The nasty tasks will start soon if the ratings stay as they are- same as Timebomb

This is how it was at the start of Timebomb though, and look how that turned out.

BB16 was already not so good, we had the Jack car twist which everyone hated and then people complained about it being boring.

This series is far greater so far than the beginning of TB.

So far it's been really good. I just hope that the producers don't panic about the ratings and start to implement massive twists that will 'ROCK THE HOUSE TO ITS VERY CORE!!!"

There were a couple of people saying that, but most were really enjoying it (including me). We were all so optimistic for the first 18 days

on page 140 of BB16 there are quite a few negative threads and that was launch - day3.

People saying how awful Simon's twist was and how cruel it was.

And people saying how bad the Jack twist was.

I thought BB16 had a great start, but CBB16's is much better imo.

I think the announcement of 4in4out was when people realised they had been fooled.

I have to agree and now you might see what I was saying about last series with deadwood as it was so boring - we have adult entertainment and this is what it is all about. well done CBB.

The thing I like the most is that it's not all about one person. BB15 was all about Helen, and BB16 was all about Marc. It seemed like Farrah would be the star of the show but she hardly appeared in tonight's episode. It's more fair and spread out, everyone's doing their bit and has had their moments... except for Daniel and Chris...

I think it's pretty obvious that Janice is going to be the housemate that's most focussed on this series.

The Americans really need to have discussion about strategic voting, because so far it seems like it will be all americans voted out time after time. they really aren't as unified as the brits seem to be.

I really hope they don't focus this series on one or two certain housemates. It's honestly the thing that has killed this show over the last few years. It's the thing that made both BB15 and CBB14 awful. And the thing that killed CBB15's second half. Please, Channel 5 don't milk something which isn't there.

So far it seems spread out and the drama is between different people rather than one or two people which is entertaining. I hope it stays this way. So far we've had Natasha vs. Farrah, Janice vs. Austin, James vs. Farrah, and Jenna vs. Janice compared to CBB15 which was just Perez vs. Katie Hopkins on repeat for 31 days.
