BB is heading back to the BB12/13 Era

Right so it’s fair to say there are two eras of BB on C5. There was the “tacky” Era from 2011 until early 2013 and then the more manipulated era from 2013 - present. :hee:

BB12/13 Era didn’t necessarily have anything wrong with production, it was just the casting and editing, let’s be honest. BB18 was basically the opposite of this, and was the lowest rated series ever, so imo C5 tried to get CBB20 back into the early era, here is evidence:

- The eye was a whole shape, there weren’t any bits sticking out
- In the titles, the eye appears at the start AND at the end
- Music after every ad-break
- No ****-stirring tasks, all natural (bar one or two, nothing compared to what we get nowadays) :clap1:

I KNOW it’s little things but it counts, and after all the praise CBB20 got from fansites etc, I can see them doing a similar style series in January :hee:

I don't want any eras I want it AXED

[Daniel.]

CBB20 was garbage and everyone saw it as garbage?

[Matthew.]

CBB20 was the worst series since BB13, the only decent housemates were the ones in my signature but even then they either didn’t last or I liked them because they were nice people

[RileyH]

Trisha was not a decent housemate

[Jodie.]

Fansites praised it HONESTLY how do u post tweets oops

When "the eye was back to normal" is your main crux of evidence... slow down, sis.

CBB18, CBB11, and BB16 are far worse

[thisisdanny]

CBB20 just seemed like it lasted forever. Jemma and Sarah were the only reason I kept watching tbh but even that became tiring. The eviction order was totally wrong though, losing Brandi and Paul over people like Derek and Helen was awful.

[thisisdanny]

Also I think BB17/18 is a different era to 14/15/16 tbh.

Shorter series, A LOT more tasks to stir things up, backdoor evictions etc. I don't think the quality of the series has anything to do with the eye in the title sequence or whether things come out of the eye haha

Babes I did acknowledge that it was little things but maybe I’m looking into it too much x

[Marsh.]

The only "era" it's heading back to is its dead aesthetic from 2010.

I believe you may be right

Yeah I agree but imo it was less of a change then BB13 to BB14 :hee:

[Jodie.]

Yaassss you UNDERSTAND :hug:

CBB20 was like the least tacky looking series for a while imo, the house design and editing and tasks and stuff, it felt a little back to basics which was refreshing.

[Mystic Mock]

1. CBB20 wasn't popular with most people, it was popular with people that liked Sarah Harding.

2. Ch5 should be heading for the Ch4 BB's quality.

Hmm imo BB12/13 were sorta “basics” series as most of the series was natural with the odd twist, I get what you mean though :hee:

Right idk how to directly post tweets so I’ll just link them, here are a few examples of people praising it :hee:

Bb12 and bb13 were totally different. Channel 5 tried to recreate bb11 with fun montages and cheesy **** but bb13 went old school it was like a re run of bb6

[Eddie.]

CBB20 isn't a top tier C5 series, but it was kind of decent (not as bad as BB15, BB16, CBB18). However it does not end up in the top tier C5 series (BB13, BB14, BB17, BB18, CBB 15-17,19)

[Eddie.]

but obviously nothing can beat C4. All series were top tier except for CBB7, BB2 (unpopular opinion), BB4, BB11, and maybe the second half of BB7 (again another unpopular opinion) and BB8..., basically after Nikki and Charley got evicted and Chanelle walked...

CBB7 is one of the best series tbh

Not when “#fishgate” etc came up in the nametags
Not when there were montages of HM’s working out
Not “runwaayyyyy”

[Ashley.]

BB13 is the only Channel 5 series so far that I've enjoyed watching. Another season like that would be fine with me.

[y.winter]

More likely going back to BB11-UBB farewell era? :laugh:

[Jodie.]

Did I lie tho

Totally agree bb11 was when channel 4 turned it into a pantomime and added music and outside magic shows involving housemates.

It was horrendous!

You've literally just dragged most channel 4 series lol.

Cbb1 sucked, cbb2 sucked, cbb6 sucked, CBB7 sucked.

Bb4 sucked, bb8 sucked, bb 11 sucked.

Channel 5 have made some amazing celebrity series and in years to come when it's dead and buried we'll all see that.
