I think if people find things about the show that they don't like they should be able to complain, even more so if they're genuine fans and just want to improve something to make the show better. That being said, some people seem to have nothing but negative things to say about it and that's what I hate. Theres voicing your opinion and then there's just being annoying.

Hmmm.

People go on BB for one thing....FAME.


You auditioned to get in didn't you........ by default then: you are one of those fame obsessed.

Last year's winner wasn't fame obsessed.

No need for the insults btw. People are entitled to their opinions without you disparaging them.

So whilst it's fine to not like the eye, there's no need for people acting like it's THAT bad.

And that's their opinion..... no need to go about insulting people because they dislike something you happen to like: it's them having THEIR opinion, which is also fine. They can 'cry' about whatever they want to, however they like: it's how THEY feel and they have a right to that too. ;)

When any series of anything goes on for two long, it gets a crowd who hark back to the 'glory days' especially if there is any changes to the series.

The original BB shows, the first few WERE the best. After that: it slowing disintegrated into mostly a platform for wannabees: with the very occasion 'normal' person being put in the house.

While I do agree, I am one of those original fans who liked it for those reasons, I think newer fans like it for different reasons than us. :p

Yes, whine, whine, whine, it's a job to find a single post on any forum that's positive at the moment. This year's BB hasn't even started and is already being slated.

I wouldn't say the show is being slated by the fans, if the series is good then the forums will have mostly positive comments, it's impossible for everyone to like what Channel 5 do, but if Channel 5 deliver crap there will be mostly negative comments.

If I'm honest I think that fans on here do love Big Brother but they are just afraid of Channel 5 producing a bad series as they don't really have long time fans trust, although they are doing an ok job.

Whining about the forum is as bad as whining about the show.

..No it isn't? We're slating last year's and hoping for the best this year.

BBDodge 12-05-2012 02:15 PM

So far all we know for sure is the eye.

So there's nothing else to whine about.

That will change!

Yes all of us real loyal fans should be constantly happy with what's happened to Big Brother and praise them for taking live feed away and not giving us more epic suprise eviction nights anymore like the legendary ones from BB5/BB6/BB9.:rolleyes:

I have praised the show plenty enough for the TV entertainment it's given me since the year 2000 and for example finally seeing sense and changing it to vote to save/cheap facebook voting/finally giving me a truly epic deserving winner in Aaron.:), so I am equally entitled to moan about the show if there are things I don't like, like the recent apalling laziness with the same BB11 shaped house.:mad:

rSlavenx 15-05-2012 01:03 PM

I agree, some people are just never happy and pick faults in everything C5 do, I admit the show needs tweaking but Channel 5 have been more responsive to the fans than Channel 4 ever were.

I think 'Vote to Save' is a good example, I remember so many people begging for it to be changed from 'Vote to Evict' to 'Vote to Save' and now its changed it seems everyone is still unhappy.

Also, there are things that just aren't going to change so people would be as well to stop constantly posting the same things about the same problems i.e Brian presenting.

BBDodge 15-05-2012 01:57 PM

But was vote to save down to C5 or the new production team?

All 5 seem to have done is axe the live feed and chop BB down to 10 weeks to make room for more CBB. They seem to be responsible for the online stuff too, which left a lot to be desired.

Everything else I would lay at the hands of the production team, including the manic editing style, choice of housemates, tasks and twists. There's another new creative director this year (Dennis O'Connor replacing Gavin Henderson) so some of that may change again.

BB has to listen to what we want - we can not have air heads again with no conversation other then the 3 letter word. and BB has to give us something to watch ie hidden tasks and spice things up with tricks and games - i remember when glen and nikki and ashlyn were in there - now that is what i call BB.

Personally I thought that was an awful series and I turned off after two weeks.

Couldn't agree more to be honest: praise and enjoy the good time and the good show: and be critical of the bad time and the poorer shows. Horses for courses and all that.

Only BB4 and BB8 are worse than the overrated BB7 imo. It did have a few great housemates and a few epic eviction nights, but overall I did find that series really hard work to stick with I can tell you.:sleep:

The best housemate imo Shabaz was gone way too early and then that horrible arrogant man called Sezer went too soon when Lea should have gone instead for the good of the series.:mad: Then Grace went not too long after and we were left with too many bores like Lea, Pete, Glyn, Jennie and Mikey who all made painfully boring live feed.:sleep::sleep::sleep:
