I enjoy watching it and talking to people on forums about it.

No, the format needs sorting out a bit. It's currently far too long and we have too many housemates for example, but the basic idea of the show is still good.

At the end of the day we all like knowing what other people do as it makes us feel normal.

[Novo]

what kind of stupid question is that to ask people on a big brother forum?

But most of the people that go in there have issues, so imo how can that make anyone feel normal lol

I know what you mean, but it has to end at some point.

If we don't question the format of the show etc, then it will become boring and it will end soon than it needs too.

A most of people have issues of some kind, it makes it seem normal to have them. People aren't perfect.

[Billy]

Not saying people are perfect ,but there as been a lot of weird people go in there you must admit,plus BB does'nt care who they upset do they,?: and who does anything about it no one they just keep getting away with it,another program that upsets people as well is deal or no deal that banker laughing at the misfortunes of those who lose on the show, you can laugh these things off if you want to, but its still not nice.Sone should shove that phone up the banker a**e

But then again, life isn't very nice at times. It's not all roses. Deal of No Deal is a game of chance at the end of the day and TV sends people up all the time. Look at Jeramy Kyle.

I would agree the selection of housemates, especially in BB7 and CBB5, wasn't very well thought out. If anything the producers went out to shock with outrageous housemates some of whom had extreme views or were clearly mentally unstable. But everyone makes mistakes even Radio Presenters. People sometimes take things too far. But by taking things too far they learn what the public will accept and not accept.

That's no reason to get rid of a successful format, but it is a reason for change.

[Princess]

It shouldn't get axed,like Red said it needs to be changed around a bit but it still a good show.

That's okay, if you feel that way sometimes it best to ignore them, rather than go at them. Avoids the topic turning into a slanging match.

It's a good question, even on a BB forum. BB has to end at some point.

Thats I ridiculous logic to have. You're saying that if a member of a BB forum says it should stay on air they aren't sensible. Heavn forbid that someone who is on a Big Brother forum might actually like the show.

To answer your question, no. It's entertaining, it makes C4 money, I see no problem. The people that enter know what they are in for.

OK thats your oppinion and you have a right to express it ,the same as i have, and i still think they should get rid of it.

Lets discuss this not turn it into a flame war.

The programme will end.... it won't go on forever.

The question is, is it time for it to end now, which you answered perfectly.

Tell you what RM its a good job your on here tonight :hugesmile:

[ange7]

What is it about the show the bugs you the most? We all get that it's rubbish but for most it's a guilty pleasure and this forum is a fun place to argue about it.

BB started off with good intentions... kind of a science experiment to see how people form different subcultures within a society interact given that in the real world they usually never encounter each other. Also the psychology was fun ...seeing who were weak, who were the bullies, what social survival strategies people use. All pretty interesting and made for great TV.
At some point it turned into a battle of the idiots and the fake. Idiots watched because it was comforting to see that they weren't as ignorant and stupid as some of the house mates. Add "fame at any price" wannabees, the show turned into a boring collection cliches.
ps ignore andy-dale ... he's been pretty desperate for a win lately...hehe

Hi Ange i think you've summed it all up there :xyxwave::thumbs:

[*mazedsalv**]

Unless it falls under 2m then no.

It still gets 3.6m average (BB9), which is fantastic for C4.

I know primarily we started out as a Big Brother forum, but if you look at a lot of the threads in today's posts they are not all Big Brother posts, even when Big Brother is one.

Since the site was created it grown to incorporate many of the different flavors of reality TV and other area's of general interest.

I think it is a bit unfair to have say a thread is rubbish because it seems to contradict then main theme of the site.

It might not seem like a good topic to debate, but it is one that has been in the press and one we should be aware of and something we can debate.

[\PJ/]

No.

Yah, I always think things should end on the 10th series (or whatever)Just wraps it up neatly. Even axing the Jan series or taking a 2 - 3 year break would be good

A full time break would be nice

Ge it of the screen :yuk:that would make a lot of people happy:cheer2::cheer::cheer::elephant::pat::xyxwave :

[Barbie]

I think it should end before the programme just dies.. then it will be even better when it returns a few years later.

[Zac]

It is going to have to end one day.
I think BB10 should end on a high... and then they should come back with a bang after a break for maybe two or three years.

[Jen]

Yes...
