Big Brother: Power Trip Live

[Cal.]

Is what the launch night is named as, so it pretty much confirms that Power Trip will be the official tagline of the series. Personally I'd prefer it to just be 'Big Brother'. :(

[Pete.]

ugh

big brother launch night?

[jackc1806]

The did that last year but after a few weeks they billed it as Big Brother

[Jarrod]

Last year they listed it as Secrets and Lies for a few times and then it was back to just Big Brother. Also, the BBBOTS description on Sky says Emma is hosting the Launch Night episode.

[Cal.]

Hopefully they do the same for this series. What channel is BBBOTS on? Channel 5?

[Jordan.]

My mum saw the advert for it and I had to explain to her about 5 times it's still normal BB not another show. They need to not.

Yeah, always on C5 now. Has been since last year.

No it's on E4, before Big Brother: Live and Diary Room Uncut

They could just be using a generic one for the entire series, not sure. This one says:

As the new Housemates settle in Emma Willis presents a round-up of Big Brother-related news and debate, with special guests, exclusive footage and behind the scenes treats.

They need to stop with the themed adverts as well. If they advertised the eye in some way with the music and Marcus just saying 'Big Brother is back, 5th June 2014, 9pm on Channel 5' I think they'd get more views.

It's still Big Brother. Regardless of what it's called, Big Brother is clearly in the title and description.

Some people aren't aware of this though. If you were an average viewer or you'd never watched Channel 5 Big Brother (bearing in mind a lot of people still think Big Brother ended in 2011 on Channel 4) and they just advertised it as a normal Big Brother they'd get a lot more people tuning in then what they normally do. A normal viewer would probably be like 'WTF?' about the advert, 'Power Trip' suggests its not the normal Big Brother.

BB ended in 2010.

Normal Big Brother was Big Brother back in say 2006. Since then, it's gotten further away from the original format. The show's introducing the idea of themes to keep it fresh. Everybody knows that Big Brother is back in summer - anybody does. Big Brother is always on in summer, people that don't even like BB know that. The tagline Secrets and Lies actually made the series a popular series last year, and I'm sure Power Trip will do the same.

Oh crap yeah, it was 2010! A whole year longer ago. :(

My mum didn't even know that Big Brother was still on until the other day. A lot of people have the same idea tbf.

I guess it depends. I know quite a few people tuned in last year for the fact it was called something different. People I know hadn't watched Big Brother since Big Brother 11 were giving it a shot.

Last year's 'Secrets & Lies' theme was heavily promoted before the series and it ended up being C5's highest rating civilian series to date...

Ah I see. I hope it works out for them again this year. I don't like the Power Trip name though. :joker:

[Firewire]

On the Virgin EPG it's simply listed as "Big Brother"

I just hope the launch doesn't flop this year

On radio times, launch is billed as "Big Brother", but with everything else is it "Big Brother: Live Launch", "Big Brother: Live Launch Part 1" or "Big Brother: Power Trip Launch Part 1"? I hope it's the first i said ;)
