You know what? I don't think I actually want BB to ever return...
 
I never, ever thought I would say this. Ever. But...well, I don't know. I just don't think I want it to return again. Not because I don't love the show, trust me I do. Not because I think it doesn't have the legs to continue, because I think it does. But because...I just don't want my memories of it to be ruined.

If BB returns to Five next year, chances are, Davina won't be back...and the show will probably be totally different. And...that's not what I want. Whilst I admit Davina is not the greatest presenter in the world, she is fit for this show and it would not feel right without her.

And then if it returned to C4/Five/wherever in five - ten years time, chances are it would be even more different. Different format, theme tune, eye designs gone, house designs gone, completely random presenter, etc etc. And I don't want to witness that either. The thought of my children [if I have any] ending up loving a 'new BB' is something that I don't like. Seeing a show that I once loved, being loved by other people when it's totally different...and I can't explain to them why.

None of this probably makes sense...but, I don't know...without the same core elements it has had for the last ten years, it wouldn't be right.

I totally get what you mean. But if it does come back, i'm just going to think of it as a totally new show. So my old memories arn't damaged within new ones. But heyho for all we know it could end up being good.

_Seth 10-09-2010 11:21 PM

It makes perfect sense. :hug:

tbh, if it's gonna return and have everything changed about it or be like BB11, I don't want it to return.

Oh **** it I cba to explain. I can only do so by talking properly I just have so much to say its so fucvking annoying!!

Raph 10-09-2010 11:22 PM

Agreed Completely. It's been such a big part of my life now, and it's ended on such a great high, I want to treasure what I have and appreciate what I've had. I love Big Brother, but It is time to say Good-Bye.

ILoveTRW 10-09-2010 11:24 PM

Could agree more.
Piss off BB.

Mystic Mock 10-09-2010 11:24 PM

im scared it will look even cheaper on five.

This.

I hope they still keep the eye logo and the same music and all that.

However turn it into a bit more like a gameshow.

1st week.. there is a task.. EVERYONE takes part.. the winner is immune from eviction. The loser is automatically put up! The other hms nominate for another 2 people to be up for eviction. etc..

I would like it to return. Having said that, it will be a bit weird having had an Ultimate House mate contest and then to have another normal series.

Iceman 10-09-2010 11:25 PM

Well said, I said this a few days ago that even if it comes back, BB ends for me tonight and I couldnt be happier my favourite Housemate of all time won The Ultimate.

Shaun 10-09-2010 11:26 PM

The last few series were the sick, wounded BB. It's now dead. And should be buried.

Now that kind of attitude is just unnecessary. :nono:

Smithy 10-09-2010 11:26 PM

You could just not, watch it if it came back D;

Jordan. 10-09-2010 11:27 PM

This is how i am feeling right now.

Id rather it go now whilst i still love it and want more than it to drone on even longer and i become tired of it.

Princess 10-09-2010 11:27 PM

Me neither. I'm glad it ended on a high and as much as I will miss it,I don't want it back after it ended so amazingly.

Mate you have been watching it for 2 years, Ive had to put up with this **** for 8 years and I would only consider about 6 out of the 22 series, worth rewatching.
Im allowed an attitude.

I couldn't do that though. I would have to watch it out of pure loyalty towards the show. And curiosity.

Stacey. 10-09-2010 11:29 PM

I know what you mean in a way.

I'd sorta like it to come back in a year's time or something though. But right now it does seem a good time for it to end.

Visage 10-09-2010 11:33 PM

You've raised some very good points and points I have been thinking about too.

Yeah very true, it lost the magic even before the non existent race row....

_Seth 10-09-2010 11:36 PM

BB has ended on a very low, dead wimper with this year.

At least a winner from the best time of BB won though, would have been horrific if Josie won.

MTVN 10-09-2010 11:43 PM

Each to their own. Tonight made me realise that I dont want the show to end more than anything

Shiner 10-09-2010 11:53 PM

I feel the same.
But from my perspective as someone who watch and loved BB from the start, while I grew up, BB dumbed down and lost any integrity with the obviously biased story-lines and disproportional punishments that only a credulous audience could overlook.

I hope that if it comes back that the new producers stick to the original ethos of the show rather than forsaking all in favour of ratings.

*mazedsalv** 11-09-2010 08:37 AM

IMO, it ended on a high last night and im sure it made many people cry... if it was to come back, i'd say around 5 years time.

crocs 11-09-2010 08:52 AM

I agree. It should be done and dusted now. I love the show but at times it's just better quit while you're ahead.

Because it's been so popular, the people that audition to it are not the kind of people I'd like to see on telly. People who are there for the fame, not for the experience like it used to be. If they revive it, I hope it's not as bad as Nikki going back to the house in BB7.
