lackluster. kim livened it up a bit but ran out of steam. losing speidi didn't help, when ur relying on jedward to provide entertainement its a bad sign. way too many bores in there

Fantastic series IMO. Probably one of the best CBBs I have seen
first one i've properly watched in years, so i've personally enjoyed it.

It's been really good tbh, loads of storylines, a large cast, loads of big characters and funny moments :clap1: one of the best
IMO it's the worst in a long time. It started well, with great potential, but went downhill pretty steadily with just a boost when Kim went in and let rip. I think Ray was a loss to the show and then James J, who went out FAR too early. I would have loved him to have stayed and to have witnessed his interactions with the HM's; he is always great value as a HM and there is never a dull moment with him around.
Then when Speidi were just about to liven up, they were evicted, so from that point on I lost interest completely as the ones left do nothing for me. I stopped watching a few nights ago, then gave it a go tonight; but I just couldn't get up any enthusiasm as I just don't have a favourite now and don't care who wins.
I never thought I'd say this a few weeks ago, but James C is the best of a bad bunch. I liked Jedward as 19 yr olds but not as 25 yr olds, and I find them very annoying. Calum is a boring prick, Kim is disappointing and the rest I can't even be bothered to comment on.
Roll on civilian BB!

James J leaving was a big loss.
Kim entering was an even bigger down turn.
Not sure any deserve the win. Jedward would be my most acceptable result !!

been a good series....the Americans were more real than previously and the fake tan and hair extension brigade had less numbers

On the whole it's been good (but the best of it was sandwiched between a less compelling beginning and end).
The week between days 11-18 was absolutely brilliant though.

As much as I dislike James J he went too early...having said that the support for two pathetic 25 year olds and obvious editing in their favour has pretty much made it a one horse race. The consistent comments from 90% of the housemates referring to their constant digs at others have not been aired...and reports of constant warnings not been shown. The arguement between Calum and JJ wasn't shown either...WHY.
Manipulation by the producers will see another ill rewarded win. So frustrating.

This was a strange season of 'opposites' reactions.
#1 - In their original season, Jedward's antics were exactly the same. The housemates were annoyed at times but in general they were loved. This season, the house seems to hate them and they are constantly attacked and picked on.
#2 - In her original series, Stephanie mugs off her boyfriend by falling in love in the house and she was attacked by housemates, BB fans, press, etc. (Also, can't forget Lee mugging off the 2 girls in his season). In both cases, the house and fans lost their minds. Yet, Bianca not only mugs off her boyfriend, she lies and tells everyone that she doesn't even have one. This is worse in my eyes...yet, she is beloved by the housemates and the CBB fans reaction to her is quite tepid. The vile spewed about Stephanie and Lee was incredible...Bianca...meh.
#3 - Katie Price joins the house very late in her season. The whole house embrace her. It was like they were all vying for her attention. This season the late comers are ostracized and never accepted by the housemates. They are outcasts and are not afforded the same rights as the rest of the group. To this day the 'originals' still say they don't deserve to win as they haven't put in the time. WTF???
It's just an overall strange season for me as I watch everyone's reaction and how it differs from other seasons.

I dread to think how it would've turned out without Kim, Nicole and Jedward

Jedward should have been drowned at birth.

The loss of Speidi and James J really hurt, as well as Austin to a certain degree. Usually i'm a huge fan of the winter CBB's but this one has probably been one of my least favourite. It's been way too messy and casting has been one of the worst. Whoever thought bringing Colleen, Jasmine, Nicola and Callum back as All-Stars need to re-evaluate their choices, and the new stars were horrid with the exception of Kim really.

Using previous celebs has not been a great success, all bark and no bite!
Too many episodes of people smoking, giving them lots of drink to try and get reactions.
Another cringe showmance
They should of put bianca,s man in there then you would of got real reactions real emotion and real drama.

I think it a good series.
Only spoiled again by BB interfering way too much in nominations and evictions.
Jedward and Kim.opened up the series considerably,with nice Kim and bad Kim confusing the housemates.
Jedward have not been the weak easy target pushover the 'clique' of the house thought they'd be.
They started to rightly fight back and stand up for themselves which has helped bring to the surface the insecurities and paranoia some other housemates had as to playing the game.
A short false romance nipped in the bud opens up a better last few days too.
For me a really good series overall with a strong list of housemates.
Epic.

I think it's been great. If I was ranking CBBs I would probably system this is like the 5th- 7th best.
The quality will also be determined by if Jedward can get an amazing win and if them and Kim can be the F2, which would be one of the best eviction endings, up there with Shilpa/Jermaine/Dirk

Not a good series. Not terrible either. Slightly better than last year's january one though.
The eviction order was terrible. What a house it would've been with Austin, Jasmine, James J, Speidi, Nicola and Kim in there all together until the last week or so. Instead we had James C, Jamie, Bianca and Callum staying multiple times. Thank god the worst deadwood left in week 1, it would'be been even worse if they had stayed.
Don't like intruders as well, but it brought us Kim, so that worked at least.
The storylines were alright with Nicola being the greatest surprise. Great housemate who deserves to make the final.
Producers didn't do too much wrong imo, although some of the tasks terribly backfired. But the public keeping the bores in even with a vote to save really buffles me.
I really hope they are doing a proper allstars in the summer. I still don't care about any of the newbies this time bar Kim.
Fair to middling. Kim single handily saved it from being terrible.

:umm2: WTF?
This is one of the most OTT posts I've ever seen during an on season on here, and that's saying something

It's been a great series by not being extreme. I was becoming sick to death with every new series needing to be bigger and badder than the last one. More bullying, more anger, and more tears seemed to be the target all culminating with the very nasty Bear. Had this negativity been built upon again in this series it would have been my last.
Instead we've seen "nasty" Nicola/Kim, but not they're really that nasty, and the "bullying" of Jedward by the clique, but it's not real bullying, and Jedward's push back has been hilarious. Shock horror, even Spiedi were nice.
When the show ends on Friday they'll probably all be friends again, I'll have good memories of an enjoyable series, and will be looking forwards to the next.
Job well done BB.

Probably top 4 of the C5 era along with 15, 16 and 17
I've liked it but it's not been as good as some of the others.
