C5 have done better this year in my opinion

when BB goes off C5 one day in the future it won't be gone forever maybe not as quick as C5 got it but It will come back I am hoping it to go to C4 or BBC not sure about ITV because ITV was the channel that made TOWIE one of the worst shows ever if it went back to C4 it would be great but BBC would be Evan better because of no adverts and they don't make there show's all tacky and they did a reality show and a talent show back in 2003 called pop stars . But I am ok with C5 we still have next year and could be Evan more.

C5 > C4

I don't care about Live Feed, the series was ****e in Channel 4's later years.

time to just cancel the show

Bang on.

Who gives a fcuk about staging.

I don't think Channel 4 will ever take Big Brother back to be fair... and I highly, highly, highly doubt that ITV would pick the format up.

If it does get axed again, it will never be picked up by a main broadcaster again I don't think. If it ever gets picked up again, it'll be by a ****ty digital channel...

I just don't think Channel 4 would go back there and ITV is out of the question now I would think.

What I want more than anything is for Big Brother to take a nice, long break. Many positive changes were made for BB14 but, in my opinion, the damage has already been done. I can't see the show recovering if it carries on as it is doing right now. If C5 get rid of it for 5 or so years, maybe even more, people will be more accepting of it and willing to give it another go. The CBB8 launch night ratings prove that with some hype people are going to tune in. Give it a long break and there's a much better chance of the show being a success. Maybe it won't ever go back to the days of 10 million people tuning into the final but I bet it would be more popular than it is right now.

It's a sad fact that eveyr programme has a lifespan. BB might have outlived its.

I've always thought BB was one of those shows that never fade away until it's been running for around 50 years.

Ben Frow ?!?! Surely not.
He's the one ruining it this year...

There's no way C4 will take it back in the near future if it was axed. There was a reason they axed it in the first place.

The channel was in a better position when they axed it, they barely get 1 million a night now

Glenn. 26-06-2013 05:36 PM

Still doesn't mean they'd take it back

Personally, I don't think they will. But it's a fact that their channel has gone to pot without BB

Nah all credit to 4 for ending it, Channel 5 brought it back fair enough but have completely shattered the show to bits.

Channel 4 were justified in the decision though. It was a shadow of its former self and should have been given a good long rest.

Channel 5 didn't resurrect it, they've beaten it to death even further than if they'd have waited a good 5 years or so.

Munchkins 26-06-2013 05:43 PM

Can we not just be happy for once :rolleyes:
Everyone complained about Channel 4 lol

I guess so.. but i'd still rather have this show, than have nothing at all, but i accept im in the minority :laugh:

Munchkins 26-06-2013 05:49 PM

The only thing that has really annoyed me is the prize fund, neither Aaron or Luke, the two winners on channel 5, got the prize fund
i know some people on channel 4 didnt get it in full, such as Nadia and Anthony. but still..
