How has Big Brother held up since it moved to C5?

[lahaine]

Was a big fan when it was on Channel 4 but when it was cancelled i kinda fell off the wagon :joker:. Anyway how has it held up compared to Channel 4 version and would it be worth my time to watch BB12 ?

My first thread by the way so be gentle :hugesmile:

I do think you should watch BB13, it has some interesting characters.

C4 > C5 it's so much more tackier on C5 and we don't have live-feed so that dampens it, but it's alright quality.

I've read on Digtial spy that Brian Dowling isn't a great presenter. It looks like a extremely young lot.
Thanks for the feedback

It'll do on C5.

You should give this series a chance, looks as if its going to be quite good.

This, I'm really enjoying it so far.

I try to give it a look between the Euro's thats great guys thanks.
How many days or weeks have gone so far?

The housemates are getting better on Channel 5. The last 2 series on channel 4 didn't particularly have good housemates. I am enjoying this current series so far. Screw Celeb BB. I will be waiting for BB14.

By the way.. are we going to go back to normal next year? With the next Celeb BB in January and a summer BB in June? Better when they are both seperate!

I'd give this series a chance. It does seem to have potential although channel 5 will never match channel 4 for production standards.

But, don't bother with BB12 tbh, it was obviously rushed together to try and cram a series in before the end of the year. Had the worst set of housemates ever, and that's saying something.

BB10 and BB11 were tough going especially BB11's Josie and JJ romance. Glad to see a bit of great feedback on the new show. You guys are really bigging it up :hugesmile:

woah that is really saying something worse then bb 4 and 8 is really bad.

Not sure if BB14 is confirmed yet, or they'll do 2 CBB series each year, hopefully not the latter though :bored:

Don't waste your time on the monstrosity that is BB12.. it's so tacky and the whole series just revolves around the 5 million couples in the house. There is no stand-out characters and all the good ones leave early on. The tasks are rubbish too.

BB13, on the other hand, is amazing. Best series since BB7 in my opinion. Has potential to be up there with the golden series' (BB5, BB7, BB9) and the housemates are really interesting.. the bitching started about 20 minutes after they entered with Lydia and Deana :D

Doubt it, they had the chance to do that this year but they're cramming in another CBB in August. They are truly killing Big Brother.

Watch BB13, already a great series, best in years for me!

The only good thing about BB12 is that it had the best winner in the history of the show, the most entertaining one won. Apart from that I don't remember a single thing about it.

BB13's shaping up to be a great series although without live feed and silly editing they'll never compare to C4. But it's worth a watch. We're five days in.

[Monkey Slut]

I think it's been better, I was barely watching the last couple of years on C4.

BB12 had a brilliant winner, BUT BB13 is so good and it's only Day 4/5. You have to watch it.
