I know a lot of you are really happy with it and stuff, but i actually hate it. I posted a few weeks ago regarding Davina saying "oh i'm going to miss it" and saying "it's the end of an era" etc. And then you've got C4 painting this series up as though Big Brother is now dead and will be buried. What hope has that left for the show? We're aware it might live on in the future, that's what people (myself included) are hoping for, that another channel will pick it up, but when you've got the trailers advertising BB being "dead" and Davina saying "oh it's come to an end" on twitter, it puts a whole feel of negativity on the show itself and sends out the message that it really won't continue after this series and that BB is in fact, dead!

They're laying it to rest for now.

Could do a Den Watts and come back from the grave???

Agree completely.

Like I said in my other thread, I just hope they dont dwell too much on the death factor.
That will put channels off completely buying it.

Im remaining optimistic like you that it will return but C4 arent helping with this death thing.

That's because it is dying. At least for now. Nobody will care about the death trailers IF it is brought back in a few years.

It's certainly the death of BB on Channel 4. I don't see the big deal.

In all fairness we havent seen the advert yet, i know it's a graveyard and s*it but it could be BB never dies? or BB lives on.. or they got the wrong coffin and BB is still on the loose.. Get what im saying, it would mean a number of those things, lets just wait until we see the ad.

I agree people are making far too many predictions based on Nasty Nick's mobile snaps.

Another Member, I think it was MusicMan had a very good idea that I thought was possible.

The housemates all mourn and cry over BB Dieing and they look down into the grave, when they walk away, a flash of lightening hits the grave and the BB11 Eye shoots out.

You could imagine that, you know a rainy day and they are all crying and stuff and walk away while sad music plays, it then stops and a lightening bolt hits and the BB Theme kicks in and the eye flys out.

Would be outstanding, unfortunatly its been revealed that the BB11 Diary Room Chair will be burried and not the eye.

Seems stupid to me, the chair should be kept secret.

Burying the chair before anyone has actually sat in it - really?

And another thing.. there might not even be a *****ing coffin? I haven't see a picture of a coffin? Have you.. i have seen a graveyard and former housemates dressed in black? See the possibilities are endless.. You don't know whats gonna happen so your getting yourself upset over something you don't even know is true.. :wavey:

I hate his over used phrases.

You can just hear him now in a coffin being burried alive..

'Very Dark you say!'
'Not enough room to move you say!'


Hes such a fail sometimes when he says stuff and expects the BBLB Audience to cheer along and everyone is like.. :sleep:

Then The Cadbury's Gorilla shows up. Then Cillit Bang's very own Barry Scott shows up to inform him that he is in the wrong commercial, to which the Gorilla replies 'not only is that very hypocritical of you, but now you have to deal with the further improbability of a talking Gorilla'.

At which point everything dissolves into a timeless cloud of matter.

I think it's quite light hearted. It's not the 'death'. It's more putting it to rest :P

Erm.. because it is ending. Its ending on channel 4 and NOT coming back again. That much is clear. Lets not beat around the bush, the evidence infront of us is telling us this.

That's the worst thing they could do. In five years, I won't be interested in it coming back. It'll bomb. Get fewer viewers than today.:sleep:

It should not end.

And how do you know that?

Just because you wont watch it doesnt mean 10 million other people wont.

Bringing it back is far better than axing it for good.

Thank god you dont work for Endemol.

Yeah I don't like the 'death' campaign either but some people have been saying it might be a tongue in cheek sort of promo which would be okay.

Realistically Big Brother won't return for at least ten years.
Another channel won't buy it so get over it. Its dying.

What on earth are you talking about? Endemol hasn't organised 'the funeral and BB ISN'T ENDING. It will still be broadcast worldwide.

It's only ending on Channel 4.

Its more tongue and cheek I reckon.

Look at Black Friday, quite a depressing ad but full of energy as well.... they are all dancing around a coffin at a funeral with the words "Last EVER Friends... and Big Brother gets EVILL"... its going to be something like that.

Im not sure how it will end, or if the Ex-HMs will be happy or depressed during the ad, but Im sure its not going to be a completely depressing ad, Im sure something will happen at the end of the ad, like the coffin opening and showing the eye.

IF (and that's an almighty huge if) a channel is interested in picking it up then they'll still pick it up regardless of the theme. But it's dead so get over it.

I'm suprised a "fan" of Big Brother would say "its dead get over it".

It's that kind of negatvity that has killed Big Brother.

No, it's 10 years of exhausting every possible idea, countless ****wits, controversy after controversy, the instant road to 'fame' and people abusing said road and 'being more trouble than it's worth' that killed Big Brother.

It is Able to restart with a Tew Team
on another channel.

So its only Dead on Ch4
who are in the red.

And do you think that the show would've died if the fans would've stood by it. People were too quick to slate Big Brother for its mistakes. I understand what you're saying, but i do believe that the flack the show takes from its "fans" is incredibly uncalled for.

It's dead, dead, dead. Let's all enjoy what should be a fantastic last series then get back to reality - all associated puns intended.

It's not 'not being a real fan' - whatever that riddiculous term means - it's just being realistic. The show is on the way out and will not be coming back for a long, long time. Possibly/probably not ever.

Big Brother died because:

1) Of the race row. Not the race row itself, the complete overreaction from the public and press.
2) The OFCOM complainers, whom quite a few of, were supposedly 'fans' of the show, yet scrutinised every single decision that was made.
3) Abysmal producing from Endemol at times, particularly in BB8.
4) Lack of input from C4, especially when it came to advertising.

What? I'm supposed to cling onto the tiniest hope another channel will pick it up? I know media and the chances of it getting picked up are slim (although you don't need qualifications to see that) so I'm not gonna get in a twist about it, it's utterly pointless.

It was always going to get old. Endemol certainly did not help but the show is very much dying a natural death in my eyes.

Also anybody who's clinging to the hope that another channel will pick it up, riddle me this.

How many shows in the past 10 years let's say. have been picked up by another channel or has been brought back after it's been axed? (this is in the UK so Family Guy's not allowed)
