I have to say BB8 in terms of its commercial worth. It seriously lost its fame making abilities for the fame hungry Housemates after this poor showing.
In terms of Entertainment BB6 was the last truly from day 1 to the last classic BB. BB7 is always rated as the last truly great BB but it was a good BB but lost it halfway through when Grace (the shows Villian) was evicted.

BB7 Comeback Kids twist.
I think that was the moment that started the downslide of BB been a major show. Every show has its moment that signals the end of its reign as a massive show that was it for BB. Bringing in a Housemate to Win BB after they were evicted really was a massive mistake.

Imo, BB9 was the last 'classic' series. Everything after has been ****.

BB10 had great housemates but **** production.
Sree, Freddie, Norion, Bea and Marcus are all classic housemates.

No way, the only housemate I loved was Bea. Hated the rest of them, especially that fat unclean **** Marcus. He was unbearable to watch, almost as bad as Conor and just surpassing Aaron. Marcus classic? Lol sorry not in the slightest.

BB10 was fantastic, yeah the production went to pot but the personailities of most unravelled, and it was brilliant to watch

it was mildly enjoyable. Freddie and Sree were brilliant. Bea was the perfect bitch BB10 needed, she my most hated villain on BB. Noirin looks were made her interesting it was the effect they had the guys in the house. Marcus was hit and miss for me. Out of BB8 to 13 it was the best out of a bad bunch.

BB3
Do you think so?
For me for old style BB I think BB4 (not a popular choice) was the last of before the freaks, Wannabes and Glamour models took BB over with OTT twists.
After BB4 it became a Soap Opera which was class for Two (bb 5 and BB6) a flawed classic (BB7) Bloody awful (BB8,11,12,13) ok(BB9 and 10)

BB9 without a doubt.
In saying that though - BB8 was an absolute travesty so..

I agree with Marc BB3 for me was the last good one and then people said BB4 was that boring they put the wackier housemates in
BB7 probably for me as I remember being hooked that year and then BB8 I tailed off a little. I still did have favourite housemates though.

100% agree with you, loved everything about BB9

Glad someone agrees with me about Marcus, the guy made my skin crawl, & I didn't think he was least bit funny, the way he spoke about women was just disgusting .....imo
BB6 Was the peak for me, especially the sexy pool night shenanigans, I really did peak that night.

BB5 and BB6 then it went downhill, then up again with BB9 and BB10 then down again
I think BB peaked at BB6, then gradually went downhill from then, that doesn't mean BB6 was my personal favourite BB though.
Redway
07-07-2013, 02:44 PM
2004 - 2006, so BB5 - BB7. It went rapidly downhill after that, with decent series actively approaching good (BB9, 10, 14) to completely dire (11, 12).

2002-2006 (BB3-7)
BB2 and BB1 were good too but I was too young to care then.

BB5 and BB6 then it went downhill, then up again with BB9 and BB10 then down again
This. After watching the great BB5 followed by the very best BB6, I found BB7 and BB8 disappointing and hard work, but BB was back on form with those two classics.:lovedup:

It's got to be CBB5 because afterwards we lost ratings and they've become so awfully PC.

For me it was BB10, I haven't enjoyed a series as much after that one. BB7 was definitely the shows peak though on a whole.
Daniel.
22-05-2014, 06:59 PM
BB6 for me. For the show as a whole BB7. There's only been 1 great series since BB10 though and that's BB13 so 13 for the 5 era
BB 5-7
Although I still really like it on channel 5, I wasn't keen on the last few on channel 4, but at the time I thought they were good..

BB10 was just grim. No other word sums it up better than that. the fact that people have the audacity to say it's better than BB9 is something I find extremely offensive
anyway my peak was BB7-BB9 (didn't watch it before that)

22-05-2014, 07:03 PM
Both 9 and 10 are extremely overrated on here so who cares :)))))))))) but for what it's worth 9>10 easily

10's pretty tragic honestly. It's better than 12 and then probably 2 and 4 and that's about it? It's like a sick and twisted parody of BB6 and god it becomes unbearable at times with Rodrigo's shrieking, Siavash's phony self-martyrdom, Marcus's surly whining, and Fred****'s painful attempts at normal human interactions. BB's helplessness in getting people to nominate is pathetic, entire tasks are left out and are only mentioned in long stretches of Marcus Bentley narration, nominations are completely left out on occasion, etc. It's like the producers forgot how to make Big Brother happen, sometimes. The number of HMs was overwhelming and the house felt claustrophobic and suffocating at times, and I just need to mention that the first week was dreadful. Maybe if you compact BB10 into CBB length from like, Hira's boot week to Bea's boot week, it'd be good. There's just way too much crap to plow through to get to the good stuff, though.
BB9s cast was full of vile people like half the house was full of younger versions of Jim Davidsons

I don't get how 10 is a demoic parady of 6 but ok
6 and 13 are the series most alike for sure - bitchy, gameplaying hm's and a hostile atmosphere
I'm pretty sure he's not talking about bblock
I'm talking about, Michael, Rex, Darnell, Dennis, Rebecca, Luke the rest where just meh
Kat was the only HM I liked
Daniel.

Sara, Lisa, Rex, Rachel were the only good one's and Rrachel more because I just felt sorry for her.

Both 6 and 10 rely on Big Personalities Who Are Not Necessarily Good People for the crux of entertainment, but those personalities happen to be much more enjoyable in 6. I don't think 13 really applies at all because it's a very concrete house divide with distinct good and evil sides.
