Default I miss BB17 so much

I really do. This year has proven to me how utterly unnecessary summer CBB is - I simply cannot switch my investment to a bunch of egotistical quasicelebs over 2 days.... BB17 hould definitely have been at least a week longer I really do miss people like Jayne, Evelyn, Andy etc... Anyone else feel this way?

An amazing series

Yeah same like I'm enjoying it but I'm actually not that bothered about this series it's really hard for me to get properly invested.

Join the club. I'm not that fussed about the celebs right now. Too loud and superficial in comparison with BB17, which had a wonderful organic plot and interesting housemates. It didn't really end.

I can't remember the last time I was invested in a series like I was with BB17. There was honestly no one to hate and I cared for so many people (Ev, Jayne, Laura and Hughie), I usually only like one or two. It feels like it's unfinished. Every time we thought it would get boring (Natalie going and then Lateysha and even Georgina), the cast kept delivering. Even the episodes of them just having fun were interesting because we actually cared and liked them all (well I didn't LOVE them all but I didn't mind anyone). I also usually don't care for them after the show ends but here I am following most of them on Twitter, Insta and Snapchat.

I really miss Hughie, Andy, Jayne and Evelyn.

I would be much more into CBB if it didn't come on straight after BB17. It's the first time since BB14 i have felt sad and miss it.

I welcomed CBB14 after the BB15 tragedy and CBB16 after BB16 because they were poor. But it feels like I'm cheating on the BB17 HMs with this lot.

Give it a week and I'll be very invested in CBB18, but it just feels odd as it's come off a very good series.

I really miss it too.. I haven't enjoyed a series this much for 4/5 years. Could easily have watched another 3 or so weeks of it

It didn't have a natural ending, and no best bits was a serious insult to such a great series.

Yep, it deserved a waaay better final. I don't think it felt like cut though, because we had the ending narrative that we always get, it was the middle stages of the series that felt not long enough. Like the series properly began when the houses merged on Day 13, and roughly four weeks later they were looking towards the final

I loved BB17 and it felt a more magical series than most other Channel 5 ones. I actually WANTED to watch

Yep, literally whatever the cast did they were entertaining with it, whether it be arguing, having fun, speaking in the DR, romancing etc.

Genuinely one of the best casts of all time.

I was over it towards the end, great series but I was bored of half of them. I liked Evelyn and Hughie but I only cared about Jayne

It's quite sad that literally no Channel 5 final has been good, in terms of how much effort is put into it. They should see it as a celebration towards the series and let it end on a high, instead of rushing it and making it feel like a mass eviction.

We can't even blame it on the number of finalists/length of final because of BB12, it's just a lack of creativity on Channel 5's part.

I was saying this yesterday.

I'm really not feeling this series of CBB at all. It just feels so flat and unexciting to me. The appalling cast doesn't do any favours either. I think it's one of the weakest lineups we've ever had and I only really care about Saira; everyone else varies from dull to diabolical at the moment, especially the grotesque male cast.

It's really annoying that BB17 was cut short just for this. It's not worth it at all. I miss Jayne, Laura, Evelyn. And even the ones I hated in BB17 like Jason, Hughie and Jackson are better than the male housemates this series. It's just a piss take really that BB17 was rushed to end early and we were deprived of an extra 2-3 weeks of a really good series for a CBB series that may infact be the first awful one since CBB11.

It got dull after Natalie went but then it picked up again post-Annihilation Week. It was only Weeks 4-5 that were really uninteresting.
