We don't see 98% of what goes on in the house

[Me. I Am Salman]

0.45 hours out of the entire 24 hours

that's 41.5 hours out of the total 1680 hours covering 10 weeks including the 10 hours live feed they're going out of their way to give us

which is 2.4405%

2.4 PERCENT LOL

pretty much self-explanatory therefore exactly why we need live feed so badly. even if you don't watch it, there are people who will & and who'll keep us updated on what's people really going on the house

it's also why witchhunts are stupid as is crying to ofcom about what we perceive to be bullying, housemates who are supposedly isolated might be spending the rest of the day getting on with everyone, having a laugh, who knows? how can we let ourselves get emotionally invested in the show when we're shown mere snippets of what's happening? I find it hilarious how people sometimes seem to think they know more than what the housemates do

we aren't in a position to judge them. just take it for what it is: an entertainment show.

I do agree with this, why people invest their time complaining about a reality TV show that anyone can walk out of at any time if they really are having a harsh time is beyond me.

I said it yesterday and I will continue to say it Jale and Helen will probably end up being buddies, and then the complainers will look a tiny bit stupid, and even if they don't once they leave the house they need never see each other again so I really don't know what all the fuss is about. Obviously they are all keen to get their hands on the cash so are willing to put up with it for now for payday.

You still flogging that dead horse Salman. Get used to it, Pauline is going and Toya will follow soon behind. They are both nasty humans and need to be extricated asap!

You would have us believe that 98% of the time, these two bitches are nice people, but in the words of the late great Maya Angelou "When people show you who they are, believe them, the first time"

Great post

Agreed!

[Me. I Am Salman]

Also accusations of housemates being boring.

if they were doing something noteworthy it'd make the edit, or they'd show a clip on the site or BOTS. producers do want to make the show interesting.

this also.

can someone do it & I'll update the OP

[Samm]

This has nothing to do with Toya or Pauline, Why are you calling them Vile humans, that's just vile for you to say that

[Macie Lightfoot]

welp

the percentage wouldn't be much different anyway :joker:

Looks like it.:laugh: If they had to walk to the postbox instead of firing of an email they might think twice :fist:

Some of those hours are sleeping tho :laugh:

You mean like they showed freezergate...no doubt the biggest drama from that year? :D

I dont think they necessarily show everything thats interesting. I think they just grab onto certain storylines and flog the crap out of them :shrug:

You never know they upload about 5 clips a day and only like 2 on bots.

They could be doing all sorts but producers are only interested in power housemate bitching and arguments.

Nobody/nothing else gets a look in.

[Josy]

I agree with everything you say in the OP and what also Vicky said about it being the same for accusing hm's of being boring...the 'well they don't do anything worthy or we would see' argument is flawed because if there's a running drama or showmance going on between a couple of housemates then they always choose to show that first before anything else.

The other thing is that whilst we don't see a lot at all without live feed what we do see still actually happens, like just for an example the way we saw Helen the other night snipe at Jale and go outside and bitch about her it doesn't matter what happened beforehand because that part still did happen regardless.

The same goes for anything at all we see in the highlights, it happened and that along with the clips that get uploaded are all we have to discuss so we do :shrug:

And apparently there is no money in it for them with a live feed.

[Jamesy]

Good points raised. It just shows much much money, time and resources we never get to see or enjoy. It's such a waste!

If that isn't enough of a way to show they need live feed I don't know what is...

[Ammi]

..I don't get the 'witch hunt' bit..as in not discussing it or judging things because we don't see the whole context..?..but they decide on the HL show and what is shown so if it is showing a housemate in a bad light in a situation then that's what they have decided they want to be discussed....

Exactly. It's what we are all here for.

[lily.]

I think it ruins the concept of the show when there's no live feed.. cos the HMs aren't being watched 24/7 by anyone other than producers...

Which is why it is pretty pointless complaining as the viewers are manipulated as well.

Absolutely. We're only shown what the producers deem to be entertaining, and that will depend on who they want kept/evicted that week.

[Ammi]

..hmmm, I wouldn't personally complain but if people feel strongly then why shouldn't they because the point is that BB have guided them in their complaints by deciding what they will show and how it's shown though....

:worship:

I think the way we could have 24hr live feed is what makes BB totally different from most other tv shows, and it would be easy enough to set it up online and even give us a choice of which cameras we want to see footage from.

[lily.]

They don't want to do it and it has nothing to do with revenue.. it has everything to do with showing the stuff they want to show.

I guess it's okay to hate on housemates who you perceive as nasty but to throw about accusations of psychological bullying etc would require us knowing the fill extent of what's going on IMO.

..but they don't choose to show us the full context though and they show us HLs of psychological bullying..that's the thing though Salman..I can see what you're saying and it's always better to see the whole thing in these situations but BB have chosen these highlights and they choose them because that's what they want the public/fans/media etc to talk about...

..yeah I think you're probably right so when they do see 'topic' I guess you could say, I think they think..oh, that will be perceived as psychological bullying and that will create interest in the show so we'll go with that in the highlights..?..so then people discussing it and perceiving it that way can't be criticised because that's how it's all been lead by BB..and we can't really fill in the unknown blanks...

[Jamesy]

Regarding live feed.. The show doesn't struggle with sponsors so they could easily extend that online. Have an online 24/7 live feed, then either have it sponsored by a different company or Super Casino with adverts placed around the live stream. Or they could even have a live stream and an advert plays every 20 minutes. Sure it would be annoying but it's a small thing I'm sure we could live with.

There's just no real reason for no live feed. Broadcasting it on TV will cost more, having it online won't and it's easier to control. Just seems to be a case of C5 wanting the show to be manipulated to create a TOWIE like dramatic show and not being arsed to look into it. Shame really.
