View Full Version : Should BB Change the Format to...?...

I see lots of complaining from fans of the show who are pleading with the (moronic) voters by asking them not to vote out entertaining housemates.

This is futile.

It aint gonna happen.

It's like asking a Great White NOT to chew you in half when you go diving in shark infested waters.

It's in the (moronic) voters nature to vote on impulse and irrationality, so pleading with them to not vote out good housemates is a waste of time.

There's only one answer (yes, BB production team, I'm talking to you):

Scrap evictions.

Replace them with punishment-themed tasks: the loser doesn't get evicted, they merely get punished for the whole weekend, or is rewarded whilst the rest of the house gets punished.. it doesn't matter, anything to spark conflict will work.

Anyway, my way displays the public can still waste their money by voting, and BB get their cash votes.

And, more importantly, real fans (like yours truly) get to enjoy BB with great housemates.

BB is being cancelled because, frankly, the format as-is sucks balls. It needs a revamp.

I'm expecting only sensible people to agree with this btw.

So, cast your vote as to whether this is a good idea.

EDIT: If you vote no to this, you have NO RIGHT to complain about the show being boring. End of.

Disagree massivley. The biggest disagree I have ever given.
Eviction IS the show, and its too late after being the main focus in 10 years

I bet you never read the OP properly. Read it again, digest the argument, then post.

No, Im a thicko. :amazed:

The show would feel like it is going nowhere without evictions, they are a big part of it.

I was on a temp ban and it has expired. Though my proposals are actually saving the show (and hence the forum) the ungrateful idiots here should be thanking me (that goes for mods too).

So then how do you explain the series being far more watchable this week than it was for the previous two?

Oh yeah, lets scrap evictions and "rescue" the show from being in the least bit interactive or eventful.

I've explained how the show would benefit from an overhaul in the OP. I suggest you read it before commenting.

Whilst I agree something needs to change - scrapping evictions is not the way forward, if you ask me. It wouldn't seem like Big Brother UK anymore.

A Vote to Save would ensure that the dullards are evicted. If there weren't evictions, they would still be there, and we don't want that.

Vote to save doesn't work. They tried that with John McCririck in CBB in 2005! He still got voted out.

You need to vote yes to this proposal otherwise your posts whinging about the show being stale or the voters voting wrong is spammy and unworthy! You need to make a proper stand on this instead of fence sitting Jack.

I have read it and my statement still stands... everyone has the right to expect the show to be involving and entertaining in the first two weeks, which this series wasn't. That has nothing to do with evictions, but simply a poor cast of housemates.

The show would completely lose its appeal without the benefit of viewers interaction and the ratings would plummet further still. Watch the Real World or Bad Girls Club if you hate evictions.

And on that note, if you don't want most people to strongly disagree with you, then you could start by not posting pigheaded, narrow-minded threads like this.

Viewers WOULD interact by voting on punishments. Your reply shows you never considered my OP and your comment here is spammy at best and infantile at worst.

I know... astonishing isn't it that most people don't care for your "idea"? How ungrateful and ignorant. I bet Channel 4's board of directors are reading this right now and putting in a good word for you to Endemol.

If the creative team had thought of this sooner BB wouldn't be axed now and hundreds of jobs would have been saved!

It's worked perfectly in recent years. Hira in BB10 being a recent example.

I suspect if BB did change to this format then the OP would still be complaining that his favourites were being punished all the time. Also considering the temperments of the likes of Shabby, she would probably walk out after a few punishments once realising how the public feel about her.

I don't think it would work.

No, I would be happy even if my favourites were punished. Why? Because I enjoy the arguments in the house! That is what BB is all about.

Exactly.

Well Said.

They should perhaps change it to Vote to Save but hey its too late now, plus EVICTION is something unique to Big Brother and I love how other TV Show try to copy that.

Eviction obviously means being kicked out of a house and its great to Evict someone we hate.

But at the same time we do loose entertainers.
I think they should do a vote to save sometimes, but not all the time.

I think a Vote 2 Save and a Double Eviction would get rid of maybe Dave, Steve or Ife.

Which would be great.

Okay okay, I see where you are coming from and it's not something I would sniff at if that's the direction it took, but you still need to stop belittling people who don't agree with you and just accept when a certain topic has been done to death.

WildCat - I disagree COMPLETELY with your original post and your theory about scrapping evictions.
Your childish efforts to try and get people to agree with you is amusing: people are "thick", "moronic" and "cowardly" if they are not of the same opinion as you?
That is a pathetic way to forward an argument.
If you feel that strongly about the subject, why not let your reasoning and ideas prove the point you are making, instead of silly personal remarks!
And I notice the word "banned" under your username as I write this, so that says a lot :thumbs:
That aside, I think the evictions are a focal point of the show: without them, the show wouldn't progress, and we'd have 14 or so people on the final night, which would be ridiculous. I don't think the evictions are the problem. Either way, any problems with the show and/or its format are too late to try to solve now that we are on the last series (unless of course it were to move to another channel, but that remains to be seen).
Bottom line: BB would lose A LOT of its fans if the evictions were to be scrapped.
And I would like to assert the fact that my intelligence remains unaltered by the belief of that opinion.
