So Luisa isn't returning to BOTS as a regular?

[Will.]

Guess she's not returning as the regular panelist on BOTS like she did for cbb14 and CBB15.

[Jason.]

She wasn't a regular for CBB15, was she? She was only a regular for the whole of last summer for BB15 and CBB14.

To answer your question, I doubt she'll be back as a regular cause she's not relevant any more, in a sense that her series aired over a year ago and I'm guessing she's probably busy too, isn't she engaged or am I making that up?

She'll probably be a panelist one or two times during each series.

[Will.]

oh I thought she was.

[Jason.]

I don't think CBB15 had a regular panelist, if I remember correctly.

[MB.]

No, she wasn't.

[Oaker]

I miss Luisa's Insider Information </3

[Will.]

No, she wasn't.

she was.

[Lostie!]

I can't say less Luisa on BOTS will make me very sad. Quite the opposite, actually.

[Jarrod]

She was listed in the press release but appeared once or twice. She wasn't a regular.

That article is wrong.

I don't remember her being a regular in CBB15. She only appeared on BOTS twice during CBB15, if I remember correctly. One was the episode during Perez's eviction.

[MB.]

she was.

Well no because she wasn't. :unsure:

[Will.]

She was listed in the press release but appeared once or twice. She wasn't a regular.

yeah I thought so, I dont remember her much even though she was meant to be a regular.

[MB.]

I'm sure she was in America for a lot of CBB15.

[Lostie!]

She was probably intended to return as a regular (hence being listed as one), but just ended up, well ... not.

[Will.]

Well no because she wasn't. :unsure:

she was, but she didn't appear much, even though it said that she would be a regular.

[Jason.]

She was only a regular throughout the summer of 2014, which covered BB15 and CBB14 BOTS.

Ever since then (CBB15 and BB16), she's only appeared as a guest panellist once or twice during the series.

[MB.]

she was, but she didn't appear much.

...that's not a regular then. That article wasn't correct.

[Jarrod]

To be exact, Luisa appeared four times as a panelist during CBB15.

[Jason.]

To be exact, Luisa appeared four times as a panelist during CBB15.

Well then there you go. I've pretty much erased BOTS out of my memory, TBH.

[Oaker]

CBB15 BOTS was a trainwreck :bored:

(Well so was BB16 BOTS)

[Jason.]

CBB15 BOTS was a trainwreck :bored:

That's when they did the revamp and made it even worse. It was still watchable, but less enjoyable and consistant than the old BOTS.

BB16 BOTS was even worse, though. The epitome of garbage.

[Jarrod]

Luisa didn't even get a BOTS promotional image for CBB15.

[Jason.]

Remember that awful BOTS thing they used to do during CBB15 on Fridays, when they made BOTS 30 minutes longer and started the show at the end of the main show :umm2:

[Oaker]

I remember that awful 'Bombshell' eviction that went straight into BOTS.

[Jason.]

Trash. But I'm glad it was used on Cami, and she got a crap eviction - shame she went like 3 weeks too late though.

[Oaker]

The evictions in that series were such a mess, like sometimes they would randomly reveal who got the most votes to save when it wasn't even a vote freeze, it was so pointless and it just told them who was popular (and half of the time they didn't do it anyway). I know that started in BB15(?) but at least they got rid of it for BB16.

I don't mind it if they actually freeze the voting but why tell them 1 minute before the next person gets evicted??

Yeah, it was so inconsistant. They announced the two who were safe during Chloe's evictions and re-opened the lines again when it was Chloe vs. Alexander and then during Alicia's eviction, they revealed the Nadia and Calum were safe, just moments before revealing who was evicted and then for Nadia's eviction they quickly announced who had the fewest votes without announcing who was safe. But I did enjoy the live shows that series, though.

Did that start in BB15? I thought C5 always announced who was safe at first, or do you mean without re-opening the lines again?

[Oaker]

I mean't without re-opening the voting. I think they first did that for Toya's eviction when there were 7 people up.

[Jason.]

God, if only they re-opened the lines during Alicia vs. Perez, and then maybe Perez would've went. I mean there was only 1% seperating them, and tactical voting on Alicia's behalf could've happened.

[Oaker]

They didn't do it because they wanted to keep Perez in :laugh:

[Jason.]

Typical C5 :idc:

[Oaker]

I do wonder though, if they kept it consistent and never froze the voting would Chloe have gone over Alexander?

[Jason.]

Yeah, I think Chloe was always a cert to go in that eviction. Her moaning about not being saved and being a bitch during her last few days wouldn't have done her any favours. Plus, she was up against Alexander, who as dull as he was, probably had a bigger fanbase than her. I mean why would anyone want to pick up the phone to save Chloe Goodman from Ex on the Beach?

[Oaker]

True, I still wish Alex went though just because he walked so soon after that eviction anyway and Chloe still had more to give. (Unpopular Opinion I know)

(Also Tuesday evictions instead of Wednesday evictions was an awful idea)

[Jason.]

I do think Chloe had more to give, but I doubt I would've liked what she had to give. She was pretty much a more annoying version of Cami (yeah, I know) and she probably would've just bitched about Perez her whole time in there had she stayed in longer.

I actually liked her at first and I wanted her to survive the original first eviction when she was up against Ken and Alexander. But that night she blamed Patsy for not saving her and Cami during that Fairytale game thing is when I went off her.

[Jason.]

(Also Tuesday evictions instead of Wednesday evictions was an awful idea)

Why?

I liked that, as it actually gave a bit more time inbetween both evictions. It just didn't work well as half the house was either ejected or had walked during the week, that they had to end up cancelling the Tuesday evictions. :joker:

It meant that they scrapped 2 day long shopping tasks and they were all only 1 day long, which didn't feel right imo

Since they were all only 1 day long they all felt really pointless and ridiculously easy. I mean could they actually have failed any of them?

(And after CBB13's really good shopping tasks it was a really big disappointment)

Did CBB15 even have any tasks, TBH? :shrug:

[Oaker]

It had that iconic shopping task where the housemates had to sing a song for their luxury shopping budget. Amazing, am i rite?

That excerise bike was really C4, though :lovedup:

CBB15 really lacked in tasks, it was all conflict. They only had one main task, which was always on a Saturday. And the odd secret mission here and there which turned out that the real task was...

Yeah, that was a big problem. It needed more fun tasks so the series wasn't so negative, it seemed to start the BB16 trend of having all tasks centered around 'Who said ___?' and starting conflict.

[Jason.]

That's become the norm now :facepalm:

[Oaker]

That's become the norm now :facepalm:

They need more tasks like CBB13's U/18 party and BB16's gift giving task (whatever it was called) because they are actually fun and make good viewing.

Do they realise that we don't want to see a 'BIG DEBATE THAT WILL ROCK THE HOUSE' task every series?

[GLENN BILL BB7]

When does CBB16 start?

[Oaker]

When does CBB16 start?

We should find out today. (I think)

[Jason.]

When does CBB16 start?

No date yet. This gap is way too long.

:clap1:

CBB13 had some good tasks looking back.

[Oaker]

I hope there is a trailer today though, if it starts on Friday 21st then this would be about the same time they released a trailer for CBB15.

[Oaker]

:clap1:

And that Huskies Task, although I usually hate things like that, but that was good.

[Oaker]

And that Huskies Task, although I usually hate things like that, but that was good.

All of that series' shopping tasks were really good (well the Aliens one wasn't that good but it was funny and I enjoyed it).

The fact that they brought back the chalk board for the shopping list was also amazing. I'm surprised they didn't keep it, since they are so obsessed with arguments and there was always an argument over the chalk board shopping list.

I wasn't a fan of the Aliens task as well, TBH.

Agree with the chalk board thing though. What's with this IPad nonsense?
Who can forget when Liz called Luisa a stupid woman for not putting her coffee on the chalk board :joker:

[Will.]

Sorry for bumping in, I Just wanted to say hey

[Oaker]

Heya

[Oaker]

Oh and the iPad made sense for BB15, but it shouldn't have come back after that.

[Jason.]

Oh and the iPad made sense for BB15, but it shouldn't have come back after that.

Yeah I agree with that as it fits in with the Power Trip theme. I found it ironic they used it for the BB14 - the theme which was built around recycling and what not, a chalkboard would've made more sense.

[GLENN BILL BB7]

No date yet. This gap is way too long.

Well hopefully it starts soon as I'm struggling to find anything decent to watch at nights.

What celebs are apparently going in? I've only heard Tila Tequila.

[joeysteele]

I can't say less Luisa on BOTS will make me very sad. Quite the opposite, actually.

Ditto for me as to this.

[GiRTh]

No loss.

[Oaker]

Not here for the Luisa hate though :nono:

[FwenchPussyCat]

Any news on if she's back this series?

[Will.]

hopefully we get eye and ad on Friday

[Oaker]

I hope we get something today :laugh:

(We really need something because it's already been 5 days since that awful teaser)

[Jason.]

According to BBspy, they should have the launch date by next Wednsday.

[Oaker]

It's crazy to think how this time last year it wasn't even the final week of BB15.

[Jason.]

It's crazy to think how this time last year it wasn't even the final week on BB15.

Yeah. It was like 10 days before the final. And the fact that BB16 finished almost three weeks ago.

[Oaker]

Lets hope next year they don't start early May again (They probably will) :laugh:

[Jason.]

That early May launch was an awful idea, especially considering the fact that it had zilch promotion which was a lethal combination as: a) it was the first May launch in since 2007, b) it was so early in May, it's about 4 weeks before it usually starts and c) the election which overshadowed it.

I'd love a May launch as much as everyone else, but 12th May was way too early. A May Launch should be no earlier than 20th May, IMO. BB16 should've launched on Thursday 21st May, if they wanted a May launch.

I'm hoping we do have a May launch next year, just not as early as it was this year. I think Wednsday 25th May 2016 would be a great launch date for BB17.

[Oaker]

I hope it's not another Monday launch for CBB. Last year it was awful and it would be a disaster if they did it again..

I'm just hoping for a Friday launch because that worked well in CBB13 (and no ejections/walkers in the first week that messes up all the evictions)

[Moosething]

Only piece of good news so far

[Will.]

Late May is perfect, as we would still get a 2-3 week break.
