I think the cast is strong and ITV kind of get the general *idea* of Big Brother..... BUT

the reason we're not getting as much drama in ITV vs other iterations of Big Brother is literally because the house is too big and it's too easy for them to avoid eachother. Compare to most C4/C5 series - if you had this lineup in those smaller houses it'd be a lot better viewing.

Also I really feel like they aren't showing us enough!! They could cut out the shots of random walls & pop music and make more time for the actual show

Thoughts??

i am actually suprised that bb uk is still allowed to play actual real music as in music by singers and or bands on there episodes

because on bb usa episodes and i guess the live feeds they are not allowed to have real music by bands and or singers because most music in general are trademarked so on the episodes of big brother usa they play like those trademarked by big brother usa music

ITV just want another Love Island type of Show.

It's too shallow, even by BB standards.

i guess bb uk is not the same when it comes to reality tv from the good old days which is what i notice about most reality tv shows from anywhere now a days

its during the old days of reality tv you can almost talk about almost anything without getting cancelled aka axed

and now a days its certain stuff you talk about you get axed aka cancelled

ITV just want another Love Island type of Show.

It's too shallow, even by BB standards.
