Anyone close to switching off?
 
I didn't even watch last nights BB and didn't even miss it. Now reading the news that four are being evicted and four new housemates are going in..? I haven't even warmed to any of the old housemates so to throw new ones in is just ridiculous at such an early point in the series. I'll watch tonights ep because of the thing with Aaron, I want to see if him flashing was really worth him being removed (me thinks not). But I very much doubt if i'll keep watching after this weekend.

Anyone else?

i havent watched since like episode 5

nymeria 28-05-2015 08:01 PM

I have watched every episode live but I think I'll take a nap today instead

I've reduced myself to only watching nominations and evictions, unless there's something interesting going on (such as the Aaron drama). I was going to watch the shopping task but it looks awful so I changed my mind.

Yea I'm very close to giving up, I'm just getting to no them and enjoying it when they go and screw it up, iv lasted longer with this series than with power trip x

Johnnyuk123 28-05-2015 08:03 PM

Gave up a few days ago. Still no idea who's who in there and i still don't care.:joker:

Jamesy 28-05-2015 08:04 PM

I'm going to wait until Sunday and decide whether it's worth watching or not.

Big Brother's something that I always try to stick by although these next few days could be breaking point for me tbh.

Lostie! 28-05-2015 08:04 PM

Nope, I'm really enjoying it and I'm really excited for tomorrow. :flutter:

No.

smudgie 28-05-2015 08:08 PM

No.

For years we have wanted to get rid of dead wood, this is the first time they have had a twist to make this happen.

Bring it on I say.:cheer2:

rusticgal 28-05-2015 08:20 PM

Nope...loving it.

waterhog 28-05-2015 08:22 PM

i have loved this series.

vixenk99 28-05-2015 08:22 PM

It's still holding my attention and I'm enjoying it.

Jay. 28-05-2015 08:23 PM

depending on how the next week goes, i might just turn it off. i have it on in the background but i don't take in at all what is happening.

this twist could end it for me, and usually when people say **** like this i'm like bye but i get it now i cba with it, it's trash tv.

Don't understand all these people that come onto Big Brother forums to tell us they are switching off. If I was going to switch off for the series I certainly wouldn't still be coming on here to tell people because all the going ons would no longer be of interest to me.

Don't get me wrong, i am not happy with what is going with the show but I love this show and do not plan on giving up on it just because things don't go my way. Whatever they do the BB producers will be onto a loser as people will always moan if their favourite is being hard done by etc. one minute they want normal housemates which, although it is no way back to basics, I think they have tried to give us this year to a certain extent but everyone moaned they were not exciting enough despite us only being two weeks into the series. I was really enjoying this series and think it's a shame they have had to resort to such drastic measures.

I come onto this forum for more than just the Big Brother talk. I get what you mean because in the past when i've seen threads like this i'm like lol yeah ok whatever, but imo this BB is going from bad to worse and I wanted to hear other peoples opinions on it.

Respect that and agree with you to a certain extent. I think the series was plodding along nicely and the producers have just panicked.

I think I am just sick of seeing people moaning and groaning about switching off just because things are not going their way. Of course it is their prerogative but it's like they just have to keep proving a point. it will take a hell of a lot to make me switch off because I still love the show but they do keep trying my patience.

jennyjuniper 28-05-2015 08:41 PM

I still watch, but I wait until the next day and watch it on Youtube. When it starts at 10 in Britain, it's 11 here and bedtime for me.

Agree.
I'm not a regular but the vibe feels generally too negative.
I'm suprised many who complain would have enough patience for live feed.

I see your point about enjoying the series (me too).
But hopefully that will continue and only get better.

Beetlejuice 28-05-2015 08:43 PM

If there's no return of the live coverage on Friday then I'm done. I have said for years that the only thing that could salvage this show is, above all else, the live feed. Every year I've been waiting for it and been saying this show was going to end up at a dead end without it. It is now there.

I would love the live feed back but, let's be honest, I don't think that is going to happen so there is no point in keep going on about it. I do think that , to settle the argument once and for all, Channel 5 should consider it if only to say I told you so if it didn't work.

In the meantime I just enjoy the series for what it is. It's like some people think that by telling everyone they are switching off etc that things are suddenly going to change which is not the case, and even if it did , there would still be something wrong. We are all entitled to a moan but it puts a bit of a dampener on it for everyone else that are enjoying it.
