That's not the point of BB

Since when has BB been fair? maybe C4 days but recently they haven't. so I don't really care about it.

I never said BB was fair

I really don't think we're missing out on much from the original hms though.

Yeah but the point is we aren't being given the chance anyway

well there not going to make the HL show when the legends are escaping the house, having huge arguments making them trend first on Twitter.

Nick and Harry are just under the covers all time, its boring and I don't want to see it.

Sam is boring

Cristian is boring

Danny is boring

Joel is good

Simon is ok at times

Jack is ok

Chloe can be good at times

Marc is annoying but does stuff

how can anyone vote to evict an original tomorrow when we haven't even seen them this week :shocked:

I believe the legends will be here for a while longer too. There seems no end to this mess

It is pretty easy to predict what the show would be like given how we've seen them the past 6-7 weeks. All the interesting hms from this series minus Joel and Marc are gone. My only disappointment is that since the twist Chloe has definitely gone into herself more when I considered her to be one of the more entertaining ones before. Just my opinion though.

When BB16 was boring which was the week before the 4 in 4 out it was getting like 800 - 900k viewers which is dire but with all what is going on now its getting 1.2 - 1.35M

Exactly. It really isn't complicated. We are living in a different time now. Back then, people wouldn't mind watching Nick and Harry's relationship unfold or seeing Joel and Danny talk about nothing. But times have changed. People have way more options now and access to other sources of entertainment and plus, there's so many other things on TV.

So the producers want to do anything possible to get people talking about the show. And the drama and arguments that the legends are causing are at least bringing headlines and that's good enough for the network. The legends are generating interest and that's all that matters.

They should have got rid of the leg ends last Friday as was planned.
Total overkill now, I suppose it is down to the viewing figures.
If we want change we need to turn it off for a few nights, en masse.

We haven't had a chance to connect with the civvie HM's, there's been very little shown on the tasks, this is when we see their personalities/competitiveness/laughter and frustration.

The legends have completely taken over, how are we supposed to pick a winner or back a favourite when we don't even know them:shrug:

Of course they are going to appear boring when the legends leave because there will be no arguments/stress, we have now gotten used to a full on house.

I don't see anyway out of this mess, they should cancel it and split the money between the civvies for ****ing up what should have been an amazing experience.

I said this in a thread yesterday. Its totally unfair for two ex HM's to dominate the show

Right. Who cares about the originals when the legends are the ones who are really doing something in there and bringing actual excitement. They are generating heated discussions and interest and that's why the producers are scared to get rid of them.

Week 2 of BB16:

Sunday - 900k
Monday - 800k
Tuesday - 999k
Wednesday - 970k
Thursday - 1.09 M
Friday - start of 4 in 4 out

Week 7 (this week)

Sunday - 1.2M
Monday - 1.15M
Tuesday - 1.2M
Wednesday - 1.35M

... and that is the main point, it was all well and good to have some past housemates in for a weekend but this is not an ultimate series or a celebrity series.

We now have no idea really just as to how the house would have developed left to get on with things.
All has been really stifled and early on too, by these ex housemates going in.

However to then have so much of the highlights and activity all centred around the past housemates, who in the end have acted far worse than the original housemates is just wrong.

Things had already woken up when Marc,Harry,Sam and Simon had gone in,problems were coming forward and a mixture of laughs and arguments were forthcoming.

Who knows for sure how it may have turned out,really however has this last week been that much better than before.
Not for me, by a mile.

...well the BB16 housemates don't DO anything so I'm not gonna sit and blame C5 for ignoring the boring bastards.

Yes it is very unfair! I said in another thread, they are bring sidelined by the 'legends'. If I was a housemate I'd be fuming.
