View Full Version : FIVE things that FIVE did wrong in CBB8/9/BB12
Mine are-
1) Brian- by far the worst part of Ch5 Big Brother, I think he is an awful presenter, I'm sick of his little habbits and catchphrases and in general terrible presenting skills- Bring back Davina.
2) The Editing- I think the editing has gone too far, it makes the show look tacky and horrible- and we hardly see any of the housemates properly.
3) The eye- thank God the eye has changed for BB13, the eye for CBB8/9/BB12 was actually awful, so basic and horrible.
4) Wasting Emma on BOTS- So BOTS was on every day of the series right? I watched it like a few times and each it shows how brilliant Emma is at presenting in comparison to Brian.
5) NO TWISTS- No major twists have happened so far on C5, we've seen no new housemates enter apart from 'Jem' who was terrible anyway- I mean they neeed some good twists for this new series!
Your five?

1) Brian, wooden, no charisma in his interviews, an awful cringeworthy host.
2) No Live Feed, obvs
3) BOTS and it's chavs who wouldn't know entertaining house-mates if it punched them in the ******
4)No major twists
5)Tacky editing, New Marcus, bias
We had a great twist - the Crypt

1) Brian... If they can't get Davina, use Emma (the next best thing). Simples.
2) The Eye... Thank god its changed (I love the new one), but I prefer Eatock's designs
3) The launch nights- CBB9 was good enough, but BB12 and CBB8 were so flat, had nothing going for them
4) The editing... It calmed down for CBB9 a bit (which I am happy about), hopefully it keeps that way. Oh, and after 8 weeks of watching people in the show, I'm pretty sure I can remember their names
5) The schedule... They need to chose a schedule a stick with it. Stop throwing the show all over the place, or you are bound to lose viewers.
We had a great twist - the Crypt
The crypt? Really? Reeeeally?
Against- The bedsit, the secret garden, the house next door, the bb9 house divide- shall I go on!
The crypt was awfully planned, terribly carried out and provided no real drama whatsoever. Even the housemates guessed it was fake. enough said.

[2]. If the Housemates can guess, i mean come on.
The crypt was sussed by the housemates within the day- it was an awful twist and BB didn't even have a back up plan on their hands or anything like that.

BB12
1) The pick off the housemates (except for one or two)
2) The editing
3) Brian
4) The fact that they didn't punish the housemates for constant rule-breaking (i.e. discussing nominations) and kept showering them with alcohol and nice food
5) The Crypt twist.

Oh ffs if they are chavs then so are you.
I hate how posters on here call all BB viewers, the crowd and the audience on bots chavs yet they all watch and are fans of the exact same thing.
Do you even know what a chav is?
Back on topic though THE CRYPT SUCKED!

he didn't call ALL these chavs, just said there are some on Bots which is true and they are godamm annoying.

I hate it when people say that too. Just because the audience look like an addidas advert dosen't mean they're chavs. That's too streotipical.
Yeah- the crypt was awful- it seemed like the whole idea was put together in less than 5 minutes. We need a new good twist like back in the good old days.

I totally agree with you. If anyone of you were in that crowd would you be a chav? If i was in that crowd for a live show, would i be a chav?

No Live Feed / Lack of news was the main problem for me. BB12 is one of my least favourite series because I didn't feel envolved with the housemates. I don't feel like I got to know them all personally because the highlight show was only edited to focus on either the tasks or any drama that was happening. Even with BB10 which had no LF it still felt like I knew the housemates because it was edited well and C4 provided better updates. Their BB website was amazing in contrast.

This is my top Five things that C5 has done wrong in CBB8, BB12, and CBB9.
1) Presenter: Brian is starting to get boring as the presenter of BB. I hope Davina comes back or Emma takes Brian's place as presenter.
2) House: The layout for the house has been the same since BB2010. We need a new layout for the house.
3) Twists: The twists are a bit boring now. The only twists we've seen are Jem entering the house and The Crypt.
4) Punishments and Rewards: We haven't had punishments like the ones in BB2008. BB is letting the housemates get away with talking about nominations. And the housemates get Beer and Champagne like everyday.
5) Eye: The eye has been looking boring and the one we will be having looks great. The pink and blue spaceship eye was downright disgusting.
1) Presenters - Brian Dowling should never have been considered. I would love for them to promote Emma to the main show and give BOTS to Alice and Jamie. Marcus should have his role reduced in the new series too - he certainly needs to be less shouty and OTT.
2) Nominations Twists - The producers can't keep chucking in blatantly biased twists that they make up as they go along just to suit whatever agenda they're pushing. Any twists to the nominations process should be fair to housemates and transparent to viewers.
3) Rules - If they're still enforcing rules, housemates must be properly punished when they're broken. No more of this turning off the hot water crap - it doesn't faze them any more. Viewers should be able to read a copy of the rules online.
There was also a ludicrous amount of outside contact in CBB8 which, thankfully, they remedied for CBB9. Housemates - whether celebrity or civilian - shouldn't be granted access to their loved ones without earning it.
4) Tasks - While a lot of last year's challenges were creative, some of the shopping tasks were far too short.
5) Online - Channel 5's Big Brother online presence is nothing short of a mess. Between c5.com/bigbrother, the Facebook app and the Twitter feeds, you don't know where to go for news first. I think most fans would prefer for them reintroduce a proper official website that acts as a hub for everything, with a unique design - and of course a live feed...

Emma Willis presenting the main show would be the best thing to ever happen.

Im just gonna write 1 and that is.
Marcus screaming over the shows and dropping in unfunny jokes. Stop giving him so much ****ing airtime and take away his voice when the housemates are evicted!

1] Brian presenter
2] Marcus narrating every little thing
3] Tacky over the top editing - does not suit Big Brother at all -_-
4] No Live feed / poor online interactivity
5] Just everything C5 have turned it into ;/

I think that C5 should C4 like editing and do stuff that needs to be seen but stuff that people won't send in stuff to Ofcom like both times in 2007.

**** that!
The offcom crew win then! Why should we all suffer from not seeing slightly offensive or adult material which adds to the rawness and entertainment of BB just because it offends a minority of saddos.

1) Brian Dowling: He needs to go unfortunately. He's just not for the presenting job. Give it to Emma!
2) Online Presence: Channel 5 need a Channel 4 style website for everything. News, Image, voting lines, live feed.
3) The House Layout: IT NEEDS TO CHANGE! Having basically the same layout since 2009 is boring. We need to shake things up. Even Housemates that are going in know the layout now.
4) Tasks: We need to see something more creative, as Matt said above.

1. Lack of 24/7 live feed
2. Poor presenters
3. The editing style - too many montages (with crap music), flashbacks & that silly name-tagging
4. Too much contact with the outside world. Housemates should only have contact with each other and the voice of BB.
5. Allowing nom discussion.
Bonus 6. Revealing who got most votes when there were more than 2 up.

1. Hire Jamie and Alice
2. Cast Lord Aaron
3. Bring Jedward on
4. Keep the Theme Tune
5. The revolving Eye at the door

Five good things:
Bringing back alcohol!
Not pandering to Offcom
advertising on other channels across the board, on animated billboards and in newspapers
Casting Rebeckah Vaughne (controvercial but i think she was great) she could have been the next Grace if she had stayed.
The revolving eye at the top of the stairs was epic!
1 extra THE NEW EYE :)

THIS ANNOYS ME SO MUCH.
I miss the woman/man voice coming on and being like,
'5, 4, 3, 2..1. David.. You have been Evicted. Please leave the Big Brother house!'
It was so intense and brilliant.

1. Like most people i believe Brian has to go. As much as i like the guy, he really cant present. I don't like it when he asks a question to the eviction audience and he get no response, it's just awkward.
2. The house. The house is a big thing for me, i love waiting to see what the house would look like.I think channel 4 went all out for BB11 house wise, making it beautiful! C5 made it look slightly cheap. I hope they revamp the house layout completely, i want it to go back to the times of BB5/BB6/BB7. I want a house with a secret room like the room Caprice got access too in CBB3. (http://www.channel4.com/entertainment/tv/microsites/B/bb5_celebrity/news/newsstory8513.html)
3. The eye, i liked it but it could have been much better. This years is an improvement.
4.The editing. I understand why they have the names flashing on screen and stuff but their names pop up alot during each episode, i don't think it's necessary.
5. Marcus needs to ctfd. He's not as funny as he thinks he is. He's become a big part of the show and i think he should stay but what C5 give him to say sometimes is bollocks.
