1) Not enough contestants. Watching an alliance(made up of 70% of the house) have meetings to discuss avoidance of "blood on hands" from a few isolated stragglers was ridiculous.
2) Not enough time. First they were 11..then they were a "final 5". Throw in the fact 2 waste of space losers virtually self-evicted, we only seen 4 genuine evictions - with a DE accounting for half of them. Truly pathetic.
3) People who don't care/don't want to be there. It's bad enough having to watch weak floaters stink the place out..but even more annoying than that is the idiots who go in there and do nothing but moan and virtually self-evict. Keshia and Meta were the latest fools to rob a couple more respectful and deserving of a slot.
4) More weak females clogging the place up. The one and only true competitor the females had on their side was swiftly rounded on by pathetic floaters like Marissa. Ironically the weak floating turd who ended up winning. That ludicrous conclusion was actually the HL of the season..seeing that it allowed us to witness that insincere, arrogant douchebag get crushed in the end.

I want Ari third but on the wiki page she's in 4th. Not that that decides anything but that's all we can go from

Ariadna was announced as the eight juror while Mark was announced as the ninth juror when they both came out, so definitively she got fourth and he got third?

I thought the length and the number of houseguests was perfect.
The boot order (which resulted in that hideous ending) is what ruined the season.

DRAG the scripted DRs and production rigging :clap1:
i mean i hadn't watched a full season of BBUS until this one.
i thought it was a good bunch of people, lots of drama and i actually couldn't wait to watch the next episode
i'd say it did feel rushed though, i'd have maybe liked one more extra week, but hey, maybe next season?
i actually liked that ending as well lol

The point of there being not enough contestants is partly down to the morons we had in there. But also partly down to the fact we had 2 losers quit, which meant we only ever had 9 active players. Not enough time is an issue all on its own. But the former point affects the latter. I'm all for quality>quantity. But because the limited time was packed with a lot of predictable, meaningless action, the quality/enjoyment was significantly diluted.

RTV is trashy etc but looking at the shows in america i would prefer that than the messy dead ones we have here. Love Island is great here but that's it. (maybe SCD too) others are dead or boring.
I would kill for The Amazing Race and Survivor to be in the UK.

Okay maybe 13,15 and 17 are better but i still prefer CBBUS1 over majority of UKs.
Terrible ending(like 13 but some good seasons have that) but still a great season overall (like 13)

LOL - you make four arguments and are completely wrong on every single one of them. They had the perfect number of contestants (probably 1-2 too many if anything!), it lasted long enough to leave us wanting more, the contestants on the whole played much harder than BBUS contestants have over the last couple of years and the females were pretty strong throughout and pretty much ran the game.
