Why is there no excitement anymore?

[Jordan.]

I've just been looking back at the forum this time 4 years ago (before BB10 started) and the forum was so busy, there was literally multiple threads everyday at this point speculating about the series, even about what grass will be in the garden ;orangu:

You can see here: http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=128&order=desc&page=695

You'd think now with the ratings recovering and media interest increasing in BB again there'd be more excitement on the forum but apparently not :unsure:

[Josy]

We have nothing to discuss atm though tbf, as soon as we start getting some snippets of info it should become a bit busier.

[Ammi]

..I'm not sure there has been anything like the same excitement since Channel 4 days, when BB first started though just about everyone I knew was talking about it and now I have no friends who watch it, which is why I joined the forum...

True, but there was nothing then either. It was mostly speculation but that doesn't even really happen anymore.

Hmm yeah that's true, maybe there just isn't enough diehard fans any more.

[Cherie]

After so many series, maybe people are a bit jaded from discussing the grass and the fixtures and fittings and have just run out of steam.

this topic has been done to death

This ^ and They're over doing it with 2 CBBs imo

[Drew.]

I usually love the hype and discussing it, but it only really kicks in when there's less than a month to go and house pictures are released.

[Me. I Am Salman]

where

Oh please.. you know in every house pictures/bb eye thread these past couple of years there's always been the usual Back In The Good Days Of 2009 This Thread Would Have Been Swarmed With Replies

[Jordan.]

I'm asking why tho

[Me. I Am Salman]

it's a bit obvious

[Jordan.]

Enlighten us then instead of derailing the thread :idc:

[Marsh.]

Well this is giving the topic its own thread rather than random posts in other threads.

The way you go on no thread could ever be made because every possible conversation has been done before.

[Samm]

apparently it's starting late this year because of BGT like last year's was

[Samm]

and didn't used to start in may when it was on C4

[Tregard]

I wish it would just ignore BGT, and go by it's own damn schedule. Ratings be darned.

[InOne]

Before I don't care and after I don't care. It's only when it's on I actually like talking about it.

[Tregard]

The forum will be ablaze again the moment we see the eye.

[Josiah.]

The forum will be hyped the moment we see an eyeflash.

[Lostie!]

The forum will be ablaze again the moment we see the eye.

I can see it now. "ERMAGHERD UGLY EYE WORST SERIES EVA!".

But yeah, when real information starts to come out, things will no doubt pick up.

[armand.kay]

C5 need to start "Leaking" Information.

Harry wanting a big picture of Jade Goody on the diary room chair. :umm2:

[Nedusa]

what do you think this years scandal will be ?

Asexual,Bisexual,Trisexual, Gay,Lesbian, Transgender, Transvestite, Goth, Fat Twins (been done), Anorexic Triplets, Conjoined twins ???

Perhaps partially abled (been done) or people pretending to be actors pretending to be people ??

Or a real undercover person actually working for Sun or Star doing an expose of BB.

Whatever it is it will have to be different to everything thats gone before.

Should be exciting

[reece(:]

There's going to be another secret room with cameras and we're all going to have to deal with it.

[James]

Since it has gone on C5 a lot of newspapers and magazines won't cover Big Brother because they don't want to promote something from a rival media-group.

Less press coverage equals less pre-show excitement and hype (which translates into lower ratings).

[Jemal]

Dunno about you but i get excited when its 4-3 weeks to go.

Really? I thought the show, especially CBB was getting a lot more coverage than in the last C4 years.

CBB13 final was higher than the launch first time since BB7

BB14 also went up the series average was around 2.0 Million and BB13 was 1.6 Million

CBB rather than normal does okay at the moment in the tabloids. But don't Heat and all them ignore BB now? They always used to have it on their front covers.

[mizzy25]

new magazine always cover it, but isn't that something to do with the daily star which is something to do with bb? I get excited when I see the eye and hear the theme tune.
What would be really great this year is if they went back to basics with ordinary but interesting people.

[iRyan]

There's nothing to discuss right now tho...

[Jemal]

^

[Me. I Am Salman]

because the eye/house have constantly been a disappointment ever since it moved to C5? Duh

[Jordan.]

calm down fishcake

[Jemal]
