Even BB4 had everyone talking... mostly about how boring it was, lol.
BB6 was like crack for me.
The earlier shows were much better.  HMs weren't so aware of the game and were less inhibited.  There were less wannabes and more alcohol.  And it's true that everyone was talking about it
Hahah.. I remember when nasty Nick was removed. There was no live feed or anything but it went round like wildfire. I was getting phone calls at work about it! And then there was a special extended programme that night.. it was soo exciting! :D

IMO BB went downhill after BB4 as the producers tried to get away from the boring tag that BB4 had set. BB5 was way over the top but entertaining, but ater that it just went for shock value to bring it back to popularity. 
Unfortunately it has failed miserably IMO.

It's time for me to pull out my trump card. :D My first BB was BB1 Germany which started a few months before the UK one. We returned to the UK 2 weeks into BB1 UK. I watched every series up to the Nikki Grahame fiasco where I vowed never to watch again (although I watched most Celeb BBs). I came back to BB just in time to catch the Siavash, Noirin, Marcus' love triangle. 
To be honest I'm glad BB is coming to an end, the innocence has gone - everyone seems to enter BB in order to further their fledgling tv career or to fast-track their baps to the cover of Nuts.
I agree with the OP...
...In fact I always agree with the OP. Arsenalforever can you put "...and the same goes for Shiner" in your sig please. It would save me wasting anymore time on here. :joker:

I'm suprised I remember Kate & Brian winning, it was ages ago!
Tbh, I think the race row ruined the show, it just turned into somthing negative, if Big Brother's on the news now it's because something's gone wrong & being complained about.
