(...does Hayu still exist? I'm so out of touch)

CBB21 has 5 characters. Big Brother 5 finished on August 6th 2004. 2004 + 6 = 2008. Big Brother was cancelled on Channel 4 in 2010. 2008 + 10 = 2018. Big Brother will be cancelled in 2018.

are they really this smart though

if they were, the show wouldn't even be in this predicament in the first place

If I were Channel 4 i'd pick the show up. Back when it was on that channel, it was a huge selling point for their channel. Since then they're one of the only channels that don't really have a selling point show. Be honest with yourself, do you really care about that many shows on Channel 4? And if you do, are they even that popular to begin with? I feel like this amount of years without the show means they might very well have the right timing to get it its footing again

I'm here for an online big brother but it would have to have live feed.

I just can't see it. Why would they want a show back that they wanted to get rid of? It's had its run. What other reality TV show has aired for 18 years? I think we're extremely lucky that we got what we got. End of an era </3

:laugh2:

BB was their flagship show, but now they have Gogglebox and Bake Off. I just can't see them spending millions to get it back.

Does anyone actually watch Channel 4 now though like honestly

yes I love it

Yes loads

Bake Off
Hunted
Secret Life of 4/5/6 Year Olds
Gogglebox
Come Dine With Me
Location Location Location
The Island With Bear Grylls
The Crystal Maze

Channel 5:
Not so Sweet 16

I don't really agree.. I think they've spent these past seven-odd years carving out their post-BB brand, and I think they've done pretty well. I mean, in terms of non-scripted shows, they've got Gogglebox, First Dates, The Last Leg, The Undateables etc, and on E4 there's Made in Chelsea and Celebs Go Dating. Granted, none of them are as massive as BB was in its heyday, but I think they've found a roster of shows which work well for them as a channel that prides itself on producing diverse and (somewhat) intellectual reality TV. They don't want or need BB.

I don't think so pet

:laugh2:

I only watch Hunted and The Island out of that list and that's when me mam has it on. I'm NOT ashamed to admit that I wartched that rich kid documentary!

I hope "In Therapy" becomes Channel 5's flagship show

(oh yeah and Bake Off lol)

I don't watch C4 ever tbh.

I watch E4 for Hollyoaks and Made in Chelsea but not C4 itself

the simpsons on c4 is enough for me to watch

if it comes back anytime soon it'll probably be online exclusive or a random channel that gets like 100k viewers lbr

watching some simpsons on channel 4 and then swapping to a double bill of The Simpsons on Sky 1 at 6:30pm is my kink

A TLC exclusive?

Big Brother - only on Spike.

Spike rebranded as The Paramount Network (I know because it's airing that awful-sounding Heathers remake)

They just spent **** loads on building a new house and set barely 2 years back so doubt it

C4 have Ackley Bridge and Derry Girls too!

wait ackley bridge is C4?

:love:

I miss C4 on Friday nights during summer 2005 when you had BB6, 8 Out of 10 Cats, a late-night episode of The Simpsons, followed by a few other shows that I don't remember, but were probably good and then a rerun of Desperate Housewives. :love:

Yes.

It airs in the summer too, so it don't need BB anymore.

omg friday nights were always good on 4
Friday night project and ugly Betty omg yes bitch

In 10 years Jason will be reminicisng about CBB21, Marnie Simpson In Therapy, BOTS and then Supercasino with the :flutter: ?

...when the weekend used to be an exciting thing :(

Oh dear, poor Rylan will be on the dole, he has already lost This Morning. Thank goodness

:omgno:

Only weekly though </3

now he can star in one of Channel 5s wide portfolio of benefits shows!

Oh Yes, Benefits Street, Boreham Wood.:laugh:

OMG Derry Girls is FAB.

Can we just have a timebomb twist and go back to this pls
