I've never seen a housemate on Big Brother more picked on by the show than Jason.

[Vanessa]

They do it all the time with people who threaten to win over their favourites. But this time it feels really nasty. Ditto for Evelyn and i don't even like her. :nono:

[GiRTh]

Great innit :joker:

Even though I dont like him I agree they're picking on him :thumbs:

[LaLaLand]

It's just not on is it. If that was me I'd have probably had a complete breakdown by now. I'm not his biggest fan but nobody deserves the treatment he's getting "for our entertainment"

[Oaker]

uh everyone else has gotten it just as bad it's just that Jason is immature and aggressive and threatens to walk after every single task and then doesn't for some odd reason :think:

[billy123]

It was really scraping the barrel even for the Chav invested C5.
It might just all go in his favour yet though.

[ebandit]

...show him the door..............

[lewis111]

It's a bit of a shame when all the tasks show people saying horrible things about him
But
They are clearly going for a sympathy edit for him but yea it's not nice to watch when it's EVERYDAY

[Jordan.]

His own fault for making enemies in there

[Macie Lightfoot]

or they've accomplished exactly what they wanted by getting the public to feel sorry for him? Like, what about this is different than when they brought Judi James in to tell Helen that she's a horrible person like four days before the final?

[Braden]

Did they not say he was 'not guilty' of being a game-player, despite the fact that they're all game-players by definition?

Quite the opposite imo.

[Jake.]

well they've got people feeling sorry for him ala Helen so yeah job done really

[Vanessa]

It's like they want something bad to happen to him. Very disturbing episode tonight.

[reece(:]

Don't watch if you find it disturbing/uncomfortable :shrug:

[chuff me dizzy]

Love him or hate ,theres not one person who can say he's not being singled out

[Vicky.]

I still think that at the moment, Aaron had a worse time of it overall..but this included the ridiculous editing (that at times spliced together his convos and totally took everything out of context) and being labelled a woman beater on BOTS and such.

For sheer amount of **** thrown at them INSIDE the house though...not taking into account everything else, I don't recall anyone else who has had it as tough as Jason.

I said in another thread its kinda like the producers are standing back constantly prodding him with a large stick in the hope he will eventually snap...

[Jan S]

It's like they want something bad to happen to him. Very disturbing episode tonight.

anyone else lacking his control would have blown the **** up - as it was they drove and drove and drove him, and when someone like him blows up it's never pretty, and damages themselves more than anything else. so glad he cooled down and stayed.

if there's one thing he'll take from all this is a new level of cynicism i think he never imagined before.

[Yaki da]

They do it all the time with people who threaten to win over their favourites. But this time it feels really nasty. Ditto for Evelyn and i don't even like her. :nono:

How is he threatening their favourite? If anything, all this drama surrounding Jason is more likely to get him closer to Hughie in the vote than hurt his chances.

It's like people saying the producers were picking on Helen in the final week, when anyone with sense could see she was more likely to win as a result of everything that was going on.

[erinp5]

I found it upsetting to watch and I almost cried, it has sickened me the way he was bombarded for over 2 hours by the losers that returned to the house. Andy was spot on when he said that some in the room changed back to the pricks they were when Lateysha was in the house .

But the producers don't see it like that. They think he will lose popularity. In fact this is gaining him popularity, because everyone can see they're singling him out to make him crack.

They will keep doing it until the end of the show. It's a disgrace! :nono:

You are so right,it's like bb want to try and break him..

You are so right,it's like bb want to try and break him..

they have no brain. this could actually cause jason to win. that is if he doesn't walk out :laugh:

you know what it reminds me of? a shackled big old bear being jabbed with electric cattle prods to make it dance for the crowd's entertainment ... and always in the background there's that obscene frisson of fear that the bear might break his bonds and run amock

I think hughie,Jackson ,Jayne & Sam got off very lightly tonight,it seemed like bb went all out for Jason & then went for Evelyn

[Vanessa]

They must have seen the polls and the bookies and freaked out! Wait what : Jason can win! Nooooooooooooooooooo! D::dog:

[Yaki da]

But the producers don't see it like that. They think he will lose popularity.

Nonsense. The producers know full well, having been producing the show for years, that in a vote to win, what boosts your chances is people watching being sympathetic to you. That's how Helen managed to win the final week when Ashleigh was a near certainty to win.

In fact this is gaining him popularity, because everyone can see they're singling him out to make him crack.

Yes, exactly my point. Jason's chances have been increased because of all this. But rather than acknowledge that the producers have helped his chances by "picking" on him, you prefer to believe the producers (who probably know him and recruited him on to the show) are working against him because he's a threat to their favourites and it's had the opposite result. You're naive if you think that. The producers know full well his chances are helped by all this.

[Yaki da]

They must have seen the polls and the bookies and freaked out! Wait what : Jason can win! Nooooooooooooooooooo! D::dog:

They know exactly how the vote is going and this drama helps rather than hinders Jason's chances of finishing in the top 2. Stop trying to make him out to be the anti-producer choice. They, the producers, are HELPING him win votes and there's no way they don't know that that will be the result of all this.

when I went back and rewatched BB12 last summer (god knows why I did that, but that's besides the point), I made a point to watch BOTS to see if Aaron really was mistreated like myth says and I didn't really see anything outrageous at all lmfao. They bent over backwards to justify the Maisy kiss because Faye should have done something if she actually liked Aaron (even though she already took him on a date and pretty much told him that she likes him), and the studio audience that supposedly had it out for Aaron every single day erupted into cheers and applause when they phoned his brother and he trashed Jem and said she's to blame for everything. The entire final week of BOTS was pretty much people saying that they don't even want to express any thoughts on Aaron that could be perceived as negative because it's just easier to not say anything than deal with the backlash from his fans.

I don't know, maybe some substance is lost when you rewatch a series but I found nothing unfair about how Aaron was treated.

[Vicky.]

Good analogy tbh. I think Jason himself sees this too which is why tonight he was blocking the cameras, and previously when its all got too much he has refused to stand in view of the cameras.

I don't understand why they would want to do this though? Punishment for evicting the favourite to win maybe? It can't be that though as if they were that bothered they would have made up a twist to bring her back. His refusal to play along with their matchmaking with him and Charlie maybe? Just for the fun of it?

Hell I like the guy but I don't support him as such and don't think he would be the best winner (he is my 4th, behind Andy, jayne, Hughie) but I can see they are just taking the piss out of him and can't imagine how he actually feels, or his fans tbh

[EspeonBB]

I think the task would've helped him actually. He gets sympathy votes from people who feel he is 'bullied' or 'picked on'

From memory, the BOTs treatment was ridiculous. The only thing that stands out to me now though as it was a while ago was that Nicola Mclean woman going on about how he was an abusive spouse..and being encouraged to carry on...there was more than that as I remember actually stopping watching BOTs due to the bias. It didn't start immediately, it was in the last 4/5 weeks IIRC..or when it became clear he was massively popular among viewers.

[hot2go]

uh everyone else has gotten it just as bad it's just that Jason is immature and aggressive and threatens to walk after every single task and then doesn't for some odd reason :think:

BOLLOX

[hot2go]

It's like they want something bad to happen to him. Very disturbing episode tonight.

BB seriously hitting the barrel with that task.....lets pretend your going to court....that is not something to joke about....they'll be pretending there's a mad man behind the mirrors next....or telling them about the atrocities in France and Germany just so the viewers can watch them feeling scared. Hope channel five get seriously bollocked for this.

[hot2go]

If BB cause a man as principled and respected to break down on national tele there will be a massive reaction from the public....the grown ups in this country do not want to see a good guy broken for some kind if blood sport....channel five should be ashamed of what they're doing for wherever bizarre reason they seem to have

They, the producers, are HELPING him win votes and there's no way they don't know that that will be the result of all this.and i'm quite sure jason would prefer a chance to win (or be evicted) on his own merits than have his head *******ed with in this manner. he'd say thanks but no thanks.

[Kazanne]

BOLLOX

:joker::joker::joker:totally

[Tarryn]

He was found not guilty how is that being singled out. Jason lovers are in complete denial as to what a low life Scum bag he is.

What makes him such a lowlife :shrug:
Trying to get away from that mad woman Charlie ?.
Evicting Lateysha ?, the HM he LEAST got on with.
Jackson got to see Georgina & was praised, Charlie defended Jayne.
THREE ex-HM's SLATED Jason & BB knew that was going to happen.

He as robbed that year. Should have won :love:

[Jan S]

I think hughie,Jackson ,Jayne & Sam got off very lightly tonight,it seemed like bb went all out for Jason & then went for Evelyn

pretty much, but when i said everyone's heads i meant everyone's - the viewers & housemates alike

just look at the reactions to tonight's show. they'd rate that a success.

[rusticgal]

It's like they want something bad to happen to him. Very disturbing episode tonight.

They got what they wanted tonight...Jason losing his temper. They wouldn't let him go because the backlash would look very bad for Channel 5 because they have allowed him to be pushed to the limit. It's been nothing but bullying.

[RavenleFey]

I found it upsetting to watch and I almost cried, it has sickened me the way he was bombarded for over 2 hours by the losers that returned to the house. Andy was spot on when he said that some in the room changed back to the pricks they were when Lateysha was in the house .


If I'd been in that room with them I'd would of got up and hugged him. To think he smiled when she first came in :sad:

[Vicky.]

Briefly, before turning her attentions back to Jason... :D

[eve88]

That was horrible to witness. I really felt for Jason. Charlie is vile. And only last week she was saying she loved him. Ryan and Lateysha were also disgusting. It was a witch hunt in that court room. Not nice at all

[hot2go]

How many threads about jason being 'bullied' by bb do we need?

Oh at least another 250 before we catch up with amount of threads that said Queeeeeen Lateysha was robbed.

[Beso]

Oh what a bloody shame, poor Jason.

So his ex goes in with him then comes back to tell some home truths....

That's it, that's all the bad stuff he has had thrown at him..compare that to Andy who has had a much harder time than Jason yet he handles himself like a proper man....not like Jason who smashes up stuff and threatens to explode (the wrong way) but is still allowed to remain in the house....yeah,bb is really picking on Jason..

[Cherie]

How many threads about jason being 'bullied' by bb do we need?

:joker: matched with Jason is soooo strong and manly...which is it?

They want him to win underdogs always do well .,simples, they already gave him 20k when he didn't hit the button first in the task and now this, they invited him on the show and told him they would manipulate it for him to win, a Hughie/Jason final 2 would be a money spinner for the programme
