Why Big Brother 5 went Pear Shaped
 

In honour of Why Big Brother 4 went Pear Shaped and as this is an anual tradition, I thought I would open this thread for business.

Especially as I was proved right about BB4 :rolleyes:

What would we do without our resident Prophet of Doom to bring us down to earth.:bawling::bawling:

Live long and prosper Sticks.:thumbs:

You used a picture of a real pear this time Sticks :thumbs:

DEJA-VU!!! :hugesmile:

All over again :laugh:

Shamless bouncing this to the top of the pile.

From the sound of things, C4 / Endemol do not inspire much confidence.

Just to summarise

BB1 - Incompetance at not spotting cheating and allowing a tainted nomination to stand

BB2 - Shameless opportunism of the Helen & Paul romance (even to the point of setting Helen up, thwarted unexpectedly by Paul Clarke)

BB3 - Suspicion of Rigging in an attempt to get a chosen champion the crown

BB4 - Back to incompetance, tinkering and botching (The bomb scare caused by workmen carelessly leaving a toolbox just typified this)

BB5 ??????

oh god here we go again! Sticks!!! xxx

God nothing changes in here much, does it? Wipe the foam from your chin Sticks. We are about to witness the best Big Brother ever, now is that being optimistic or what. :bouncy:

:spin:

Hi Stu and Steve, nice to see both of you back again :thumbs:

More like wishful thinking.

The track record is not all that inspiring

:bored:

Who asked for the little green sad smiley, should I ask:thumbs: Come on Sticks it's time to party :elephant: Let's make use of :hello: and :spin2: that poor sad little fella looks worn out to me. what he needs is a :love:

:spin:

:bouncy::bouncy::bouncy:

Hi everyone i'm back again.
Please Please Please lets not have any books in the house this year.
Last year it was sooooooo boring watching them laying around reading.
Roll on Friday.:colour::colour::colour::dance::dance::danc e::dance::dance::dance::dance:

Welcome back jbellemeg :wavey:
I'm sooooooooooooooooo excited for BB5!
This time next week we'll have met the housemates :dance::dance::dance::dance:

Thank's Amy, nice to be back.
Hope by Saturday all the regulars will return.
Although I havn't been posting I have still been reading what everyone has to say.
Can hardly contain my excitment.
Please let it be as good as BB2.
What a show that was :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

:bored: right sticks no long faces or prophets of doom l:shocked: - lets be hopeful that this might be the best yet :dance::dance::dance::colour::colour::colour: let's face it will be hard to be worse than last year and easy to be better go on smile :bouncy:

I'm not holding my breath

I believe we said that about BB4, prior to its commencement in reference to BB3 (remember the awful bars and the squabbles)

Sorry but the universe is governed by the second law of thermodynamics. The amount of entropy is increasing. Everything is running down and all things get worse.

There is also the law of diminishing returns.

:rolleyes: there is not much one can say to that sticks

all I can hope is that you have to eat your words cos its the best one so far :hugesmile: I am the eternal optomist

You'll get used to Sticks Topaz, it just wouldn't be the same around here without our resident Prophet of Doom :laugh:

It's because no-one can predict how a series will turn out, it's doubly important the producers not only get the right mix of house-mates, but safeguard the best house-mates from being evicted too early. That's why last series was so dire as the mix was completely wrong with too many dull people playing a game and badly thought out rules that had the most interesting contestants leaving first (Anouska should never have been allowed to have left so early).

I can't predict how BB 5 will turn out, but from what I've read from links via this forum, I am optimistic about the type of contestants the producers have lined up, so it does seem, finally, they've listened to the concerns people like me have been moaning about on boards like this.

Botched sound

No Chickens

HM's with little redeeming features

Yep on track to show us how wonderful BB4 was ....:bored:

So who is going to eat Who's words?

I have just been looking through the posts on this thread inlight of recent events.

Looks just like last year when I turned out to be right again

Does this not make you yearn for the good old days of BB4 :shocked:

A few million would disagree with you...

I have a new name for Sticks :laugh: -> THE HAND OF DEATH

:laugh:

He love's being 'The BB Prophet Of Doom' actually i think that would make a good title for sticks.
