It's been an okay series but they've got the cast all wrong. There's only 4 people I actually like and I sometimes struggle to remember everyone's names which I'm kind of shook at myself about. Maybe time for a mass cull and new housemates? 4in4out2 would actually be welcome tbh.

But...but...but...............she brought an £800 dressing gown in the house with her. (probably would have been better off adding the £800 to the £30 she spent on her face and getting some better 'work' done :laugh:).

I do actually quite like Charlotte but i just wish she didn't feel the need to be seen to be gravitating towards the plastic saddo's.

She deserves better and the better clearly have time for her in there.

Vanessa 14-06-2017 02:16 PM

To be honest Raph being in it is keeping me watching. He's so different from the other wannabes that I can't help rooting for him. I like Charlotte, but she needs to do more for me to support her. None of the others stand our for me, except Chanelle who is a great friend for Raph.

It’s top tier for me so far <3 and why are people moaning about a generally unlikable cast? BB6 had the most revolting cast ever and it’s championed on here?

LaLaLand 14-06-2017 05:36 PM

I'm actually quite liking it so far.

sampvt 14-06-2017 05:39 PM

recently bb pander to the arguments so all we get now are fake divas.

Shaun 14-06-2017 05:42 PM

It's really saddening that they've tried to replicate Ex on the Beach for the past 3 years. They were the show that paved the way for that to be an inferior rip-off, and now they're chasing ratings.

Remove the likes of Lotan, Kieran, Rebecca, Ellie, Kayleigh and Tom and you'd actually have a solid, diverse cast, but no they went ahead with that "pairs auditioning" idea and couldn't let go of the chance to chuck another Stephanie/Jeremy at us. Even though 4 people care about Stephanie/Jeremy.

That said, I am enjoying everyone else. Charlotte, Deborah, Imran, Sukhvinder, Raph, Chanelle, even Joe are all relatively interesting characters. But of course half of those are doomed to have idiots going "ugh they're so boring :sleep:" because they're given 20 seconds of airtime a night.

How many times have you criticised the show now? If you don’t like it then don’t watch:shrug:

Yeah I've trying to put my finger on the problem, and you're right.

I respect people’s opinions, but why do you criticise a show and write negative things about it - only then to watch it?

if you think everyone on here loves how the show is run, youre gonna be rubbing loads up the wrong way with your advice. i love the show, i dont however love how its run and like many i wont give up on it by ignoring it.

Well then fair enough, I didn’t understand what you meant at first sorry

Mystic Mock 14-06-2017 07:14 PM

It's been too reliant on the same old Housemates from the very start.

Nobody is emerging like we've seen in other BB's.

And it's missing Arthur.

BIB, we have the same top 4.:dance:

BB6's lot in a bizarre way still had routable qualities about them, I could route for Science, Makosi, and Kemal, I even felt sorry for people like Derek and Craig who clearly had problems.

This lot only has Raph, Sukhvinder, Chanelle, and Imran that I could dream to route for, which considering this isn't suppose to be "the nasty Big Brother" it's quite appalling.

Jodie. 14-06-2017 07:25 PM

RAPH
SUKHVINDER
CHANELLE


are the trinity.

Whos your top 3?

EspeonBB 14-06-2017 07:56 PM

I enjoyed the first few episodes but it's tailed off a bit for me, due to the lack of likeable housemates and arguments taking up more or less 100% of the airtime (I do enjoy arguments but I would like to see some more personal conversations)

RichardG 14-06-2017 07:56 PM

honestly i haven't watched an episode since launch

i just cba this year for some reason

Lostie! 14-06-2017 08:05 PM

It's fine. Not been as strong a start as last year though.

Vanessa 14-06-2017 08:15 PM

They need to stop trying to interfere with it. It's civilan bb, we don't want celebrities in it! :fist:

psychtracker 15-06-2017 06:32 AM

This is the first BB season i've watched in a couple years, and to my mind the worst i've ever seen. I don't feel any empathy towards any of the HMs, the conversations are pretty dull. And all the fights and arguments are way too overblown and over the top!

I always used to champion the concept of 'vote to save', now i'm wondering if it's actually worse. People who are nommed seem to go out of their way to create fake fights, desperate for airtime and attention.

The old 'vote to evict', had the 'flying under the radar' possibility..and quite often an interesting but controversial HM used to be evicted, but overall maybe it was better.

Either ways, the casting for this bunch was pretty lame!
