I miss BB17 so much

[TomC]

I really do. This year has proven to me how utterly unnecessary summer CBB is - I simply cannot switch my investment to a bunch of egotistical quasicelebs over 2 days.... BB17 hould definitely have been at least a week longer I really do miss people like Jayne, Evelyn, Andy etc... Anyone else feel this way?

An amazing series :love:

[armand.kay]

Yeah same like I'm enjoying it but I'm actually not that bothered about this series it's really hard for me to get properly invested.

[y.winter]

Join the club. I'm not that fussed about the celebs right now. Too loud and superficial in comparison with BB17, which had a wonderful organic plot and interesting housemates. It didn't really end.

[azi]

I can't remember the last time I was invested in a series like I was with BB17. There was honestly no one to hate and I cared for so many people (Ev, Jayne, Laura and Hughie), I usually only like one or two. It feels like it's unfinished. Every time we thought it would get boring (Natalie going and then Lateysha and even Georgina), the cast kept delivering. Even the episodes of them just having fun were interesting because we actually cared and liked them all (well I didn't LOVE them all but I didn't mind anyone). I also usually don't care for them after the show ends but here I am following most of them on Twitter, Insta and Snapchat.

:(

I really miss Hughie, Andy, Jayne and Evelyn.

I would be much more into CBB if it didn't come on straight after BB17. It's the first time since BB14 i have felt sad and miss it.

I welcomed CBB14 after the BB15 tragedy and CBB16 after BB16 because they were poor. But it feels like I'm cheating on the BB17 HMs with this lot.

Give it a week and I'll be very invested in CBB18, but it just feels odd as it's come off a very good series.

[Cal.]

Yeah I'm really not that fussed about CBB, I wish BB17 was still on.

[armand.kay]

Wow when I see ex housemates post pics with each other on social media I weep a tad.

[TomC]

Imagine if BB17 was just a lucky blip and the next 2 series are bb15/16 style :worry: Not unrealistic tbh

[millyrose]

I miss it to, should have had another 2 weeks.

[Time]

I would much rather watch another 3 weeks of civilian BB than CBB.

[Glenn-C]

I'll feel a little better when Jayne replaces Rylan as BOTS presenter

[Drew.]

I really miss it too.. I haven't enjoyed a series this much for 4/5 years. Could easily have watched another 3 or so weeks of it

[Babayaro.]

It didn't have a natural ending, and no best bits was a serious insult to such a great series.

[TomC]

Yep, it deserved a waaay better final. I don't think it felt like cut though, because we had the ending narrative that we always get, it was the middle stages of the series that felt not long enough. Like the series properly began when the houses merged on Day 13, and roughly four weeks later they were looking towards the final

[Pete.]

I loved BB17 and it felt a more magical series than most other Channel 5 ones. I actually WANTED to watch

[TomC]

Yep, literally whatever the cast did they were entertaining with it, whether it be arguing, having fun, speaking in the DR, romancing etc.

Genuinely one of the best casts of all time.

[Amy Jade]

I was over it towards the end, great series but I was bored of half of them. I liked Evelyn and Hughie but I only cared about Jayne

[Babayaro.]

It's quite sad that literally no Channel 5 final has been good, in terms of how much effort is put into it. They should see it as a celebration towards the series and let it end on a high, instead of rushing it and making it feel like a mass eviction.

We can't even blame it on the number of finalists/length of final because of BB12, it's just a lack of creativity on Channel 5's part.

I was saying this yesterday.

I'm really not feeling this series of CBB at all. It just feels so flat and unexciting to me. The appalling cast doesn't do any favours either. I think it's one of the weakest lineups we've ever had and I only really care about Saira; everyone else varies from dull to diabolical at the moment, especially the grotesque male cast.

It's really annoying that BB17 was cut short just for this. It's not worth it at all. I miss Jayne, Laura, Evelyn. And even the ones I hated in BB17 like Jason, Hughie and Jackson are better than the male housemates this series. It's just a piss take really that BB17 was rushed to end early and we were deprived of an extra 2-3 weeks of a really good series for a CBB series that may infact be the first awful one since CBB11.

[TomC]

I've not seen it since Friday! If when I catch up tomorrow it's ****, I give up.

Also, I thought you weren't really a fan of BB17 post-Natalie?

CBB14 is a thing

[Jason.]

It got dull after Natalie went but then it picked up again post-Annihilation Week. It was only Weeks 4-5 that were really uninteresting.

[Jason.]

CBB14 is crap and overrated but I still wouldn't put it in the same league as the likes of CBB8/11. It was bad but it at least had a good week and some memorable moments.

[Oaker]

I do miss BB17 though, it got a bit dull towards the end but it was still an interesting enough series to keep me excited to watch.

So far CBB18 has been slow but has shown potential, but I hope that the **** cast means that they're saving the big celebs for CBB19.

[Jason.]

They need to stop having two series a year but they won't. :rolleyes: Part of why this series isn't that good is because the cast is crap and they've practically gotten all the good people that we've dreamt of having in the last year or so.

This series has no standout housemate like how CBB16 had Janice Dickinson or CBB17 had Tiffany Pollard.

[Daniel.]

I miss it. I still miss CBB16 though, I LOVED that series

CBB18 isn't good so far

[Oaker]

CBB16 <3

[Oaker]

If CBB19 has a really good cast then I'll forgive them for giving this series a bunch of duds, but if CBB19's cast is as bad as this series then I'm kinda done

[Greg!]

I wish BB17 was a couple of weeks longer. it was so good and refreshing especially when you compare it to BB15 and 16

[Daniel-X]

I actually think this series has got off to an okay/good start, I've enjoyed it so far. I would've liked BB17 to have been maybe a week longer or so, but I think people need to give this series time before writing it off. The male cast, I agree is dire but the female cast is brilliant.

[TomC]

Yeah still really feeling this, can't get into CBB18.

[Mystic Mock]

BB17 was a good series.

I think that they should've waited a couple of months before doing this CBB, let people get over the Civilian series.

Yeah I;m just not ove bB17, I'm watching BOTS especially for Jayne!

[TomC]

Still missing it lol. I think BB17 is so special to me because it's the first actual good series of BB I watched at the time of airing. <3

[Daniel.]

Iconic series

[Daniel.]

I loved the first two weeks so much, the others were amazing and the week they came in the house was great. I think it was good all the way through though despite a dull patch in the middle and Charlie beaten by her thug ex

Yeah It was great, I thought you said it was overrated? I agree the week of Charlie's eviction where all the boyfriends entered was the worst week of BB17 by far.

[Daniel.]

It was a great series tbh, I don't remember the timeline but I disliked the period when Lateysha vs Andy happened

[TomC]

Hmm I can't really remember when that happened. The week of Laura's eviction was also more uneventful than the rest of BB17 and the eviction was a foregone conclusion but it was still entertaining.

[Oaker]

The final week was really boring tbh but apart from that I loved it :love:

Although saying that Laura vs Sam was fun

[Ant.]

It honestly makes me sad because if this series had aired 10 years ago we'd still have a week or 2 left and would be into week 11/12. We were robbed of 40 or so days extra of Jayne, Ev, and Laura <3

CBB14 is a thing

I came here to enjoy and reminisce on BB17, not be reminded of the dreadful series that is CBB14 :hehe:
