I've not been watching as much live streaming this year of Big Brother 6 and lots of people that are true Big Brother fans that lived and breathed the show have now stopped watching! So, I thought I'd see what you all think of this years Big Brother... and be honest.

I voted 'ok'. I watch the highlights show more out of habit, but to be honest, if the show was pulled right now, I really wouldn't be bothered. I think BB6 has killed everything that used to be great about Big Brother.

I've voted boring! But I'd say I find it boring/OK! I don't know what it is this year, I like a lot of the housemates, I think they are watchable but just don't care if I miss the show like Ruth said......

I feel the same!

Perhaps I'm all BB'd out.

I think it's very entertaining but not like BB1 or BB2. I prefer it when people get on together rather than fight but I am totally addicted and like it better than last year where the fighting had a really voilent side.

Its not too bad, the live feed problem this year is that if theres 2 housemates sleeping and the rest talking they would focus on the people sleeping for 10 minutes or so and to me thats just boring.

This years BB is more and love/hate thing for me. I switch it off as its boring only to put it back on in case I miss anything. Maybe its my narscasistic nature that makes me want to torment myself this way. All I do know is that all the boring talk and gossiping by each side is not good viewing and this years contestants are experts every single one of them. In past years there was always the one or two backstabbers but what can one say about this lot........ Its hard not to dislike them all to be honest. I think about the only one that has not stuck the knife in deep is Science, and although he is most strange, there is something compellingly honest about him.

I find it getting a bit boring now especially with all the bitching from Makosi and her lackys they don't have anything of interest to say now and Kemal is a shadow of the person he was in the first week.I wish they could invent housemate cam like they do in football where you can follow a particular housemate.:bored:

I must admit, I'm quite enjoying it. I think I prefer it to last year's which I thought was entertaining enough but didn't really like the housemates.

I've never been a huge live feed addict, I dip in and out of it. Sometimes watch it only if there is a big drama or event in the house. But I always watch the highlights show which I think is a really well put together show and as good as always.

Obviously this Big Brother is very different from BB1 and 2. Those days are long gone.

I've liked Makosi from day one, so what if Big Bro favours her....call me a sheep....sticks and stones and all that. She's providing entertainment for that house and stirring things up....great tele. I still prefer last years tho.... :hello:

If Saskia goes on Friday , thats my BB6 over .

I'm not going to sit and watch a house full of blokes and boring slappers doing nothing (I can do that in the local boozer).

Max and Anthony will be depressed as hell if she goes too which means they'll be about as entertaining as catching herpes , and I'm ****** if I'm going to stand by and watch all the best housemates get evicted by all the worst (IE- Makosi , Kemal , Derek and Science).:bored::bored::bored:

Keep the faith a lil longer there dude.I'm getting a bit p****d off with thing as well cos with Saskia likely to go on friday it leaves Maxwells lot vulnerable to be picked off over the next few weeks.
It depends how Maxwell reacts to Saskia's departure will he be loyal to her absence or will temptation get the better of him for a bit of slap and tickle with Orla? Is Orla even up for it or is she as dry as a nuns crutch? I will give it another week atleast just to see if Maxwell and co are walking around with faces as long as the M4 or getting on with life without Saskia.

I'm lovin it this year. Great stuff, much more tactical play and game players which I love to see. The old days of the early BBs are gone, housemates are much more experienced these days, having seen 5 BBs already. And for me, thats much more entertaining.

(In a McDonalds stlyee) "I'm lovin it" :dance:

What puts me off is that a lot of the housemates are much more cynical about their reasons for going in - they don't want to be involved in the game, they just want to be famous, whereas in the earlier BB's (definitely BB1 and BB2) they didn't really know if the show was even going to be that much of a success, or if any of the them would be remembered afterwards. I think BB4 was the start of it all going wrong - it was generally classed as quite boring - even though all of the contestants in it seemed to be fundamentally decent people - and I think the program makers went too far the other way in picking their contestants last year and this year, to ensure that it wasn't boring. Nonetheless, a lot of last years contestants were likeable (my favourites were Dan, Stuart, Victor and Shell), whereas this year most of them seem totally obsessed with themselves, and apart from a couple, I don't think their behaviour has been such that they deserve to win £100,000.

Also, in BB1 - BB4, the contestants seemed like people that you could know, or meet in your life. I have to say that some of the contestants in BB5 and BB6 are like no-one I have ever met before - not that that's necessarily a bad thing, but I do think it helps to have a few people in the house who you identify with.

I agree with Linny about Science - although he can be a bit strange sometimes, he is very open and honest, which is very refreshing. I do like Derek as well though!
