On a scale of 1-10.....

[Jords]

on the few bits of info we have sparingly got so far, how much faith do you have Channel 5 are gonna pull off a bloody good series?

Im feeling a 7, its sounding pretty good - gotta beat BB11 anyway!

[Iceman]

4-5

[Kerry]

50/50 for me so will have to go 5

[Princess]

2, not very optimistic at all. I'm not watching it anyways.

[GypsyGoth]

I'm optimistic, I gave a six.

They need to hire some of the staff from previous BBUKs, so at least someone will know how to run the show.

[Jordan.]

I think it could go either way atm but im feeling slightly more positive than negative so 6.

[Marsh.]

Endemol is still running and making the show. Channel 5 just air it, with some small degree of input.

[Iceman]

5. Will all depend on the housemates

Oh, that's very cool. But I'm still not going to get my hopes up :D

[Beastie]

I'm sensing a 7 too. I am optimistic. I will always watch BB. I just hope BB12 is a dramatic change to the whole thing! Something new and fresh! :)

[CharlieO]

5. as i think in my head it will be rubbish but in my heart i want it to be amazing so ill go halfway.

[Niamh.]

I feel very optimistic about it, they're going to put alot of effort in which was all that was lacking on C4 in the last few years, so I've gone for 8!

[joeysteele]

I gave 8, I think analysis of its more successful years will be looked at, I think the 2 year deal will be the spur to ensure it has lots of interest generated into it.

I think the stops will be pulled out to make it a great success for Channel 5 and I am confident it will be anyway.

[the_last_remaining_fan]

If they change everything it could be an unmitigated disaster.

If its similar to Channel 4 Big Brothers it would get at least a 6 from me.

[keithafc]

All about the tasks and the housemates. Always is for me. If they get that right, it starts with a 10.

[Judas]

Judging on most 5 shows, and most 5 takeovers like Minder - 4.

[o8kawasaki89]

I Hope so with a new channel you hope with the new producers they can give the show a new life and ideas! I gave it a 7!

[georgehudson]

I went for 9.

[MTVN]

5, it will be watchable but nothing special

[BBDodge]

The timing is all wrong (in the autumn immediately after a CBB). That will count against it.

I gave it a 5.

[Sam:)]

4,3 series' in 6 months,Its bound to fail

[Niall]

I'll judge when I see the eye and the leaks coming out in the press closer to launch. I can't really decide atm. They've given no indication as to what they are actually going to put into the series or how much money they're putting into it.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

2, not very optimistic at all. I'm not watching it anyways.

Sure your not :joker:

Why lie

[Princess]

Sure your not :joker:

Why lie

I'm not :conf: Why would I lie? I put my BB love to rest, I don't want to be watching new ones.

I have a strange feeling all the negative members on here that call themselves fans, are going to be proven wrong completely along with other members of the public who have claimed it'll suck just because of Channel 5.

But I voted 6/10 purely because they're starting with CBB8 over BB12, and that is a complete joke.

****** CBB!

[Patrick]

5. Will all depend on the housemates


Hardly.
I don't get these 'The key to a good series is the housemates lol' people.


You need Big Brother itself to be brilliant to compliment the housemates.

Look at BB10 - Everyone has a high opinion of the 2009 Housemates but Big Brother got lazy and had no interaction with the house really, the tasks were the same old 'Worship a culture' bollocks every week, and the show itself changed for the worst regardless of the housemates.

BB11 - The producers got a kick up the arse and put effort in again with tasks and that, towards the end they got lazy though but even during BB11 it was still boring because the housemates weren't good.


Series like BB5, BB6, BB7 and BB9 were you have outstanding housemates and the producers putting in 100% effort - that's what makes the series watchable.

I think with it being their first series they might be a little shaky
Not expecting that much :/

[cub]

I'm not very hopeful. There was a very clear reason the show was junked by C4. We haven't been without it long enough and I dislike Desmond anyway.

If the initial ratings aren't *SPECTACULAR* the press will go in for the kill.

Will I watch it? I'll possibly only watch the Celebrity edition based on casting. But even if that's full of Reality stars and WAGs - nope.

[Gillian-73]

They've not said enough to give us any real indication but for arguments sake and because i really do wanna see it succeed i'll say 7! that could and probably will change, hope it changes to higher! we'll see.........

[Doogle]

5, because I'm not really sure at the moment.
