BB UK is over
 

BB UK is over after this year's Power Trip, I think. Bad theme, bad housemates, bad ratings. Like said on the ratings thread, advertisers and investers aren't interested in official ratings because it doesn't necessarily mean what they want viewed (their ads) are being viewed. I think BB UK is over for at least a few years, however maybe Celebrity will continue as a summer event like I'm a Celeb is in the winter? They don't necessarily have to invest a lot into it, they could keep the house the same but decorate it differently every year. I can't see Channel 5 getting rid of Celebrity Big Brother, but I don't think they'd batter an eyelid dumping civilian.

It's been terrible for years :laugh: I'd rather see it cancelled and replaced with Survivor UK thanks

Yes but this year may be the last straw. They've invested so much and put a lot into the 'Power Trip' theme and it hasn't paid off. I think it'll become Channel 5's Big Brother 8 (although I do love Big Brother 8).

This series is good though

I disagree, although it may be good by Channel 5's standard.

The series has been good so far, but it can go downhill soon because there are a few bores. I prefer it to BB14 tbh.

BB13 is the proof that C5 can make a GREAT series, they just need the right housemates.

It's not as good as BB13 but better than any post BB7 C4 series.

Wow. :shocked:

What? :laugh:

Well apart from maybe BB10.

That BB15 is better than some Channel 4 series'.

I thought BB9 was the best out of the post BB7 series?

They keep ruining it with the twists which are made up as they go along.

They need a mass clear out in my opinion, two doubles or one triple to make me happy, and then throw in some halfway housemates in any form they want as long as they spice up the series. (As long as they don't just do a bedsit where housemates play pranks until they enter the house).

BB10 and BB8 are both better than BB9

I actually hope it does end. Big Brother 11/Ultimate Big Brother felt like the end of an era, this just feels like I'm watching the long rotted corpse of something that was once great and even when crap still fairly decent. I certainly won't miss it.

Constant power housemate talk isn't helping it whatsoever. It needed a break from TV in 2010, now it's crying out to be rested.

Can you stop making threads of how it's all over and gone forever and how you miss the C4 days, people have to move on most TV has changed since 2006, The ratings are crap because of it's clashes with the football this year anyway

Lol this is the first negative thread I've made, I didn't even reference Channel 4 in the OP either.

Can you stop making the same post over and over about the World Cup?

Don't read them if you don't like them. :idc:

You've said it in a lot of your posts tbh

I made one thread last night about how I missed Big Brother 5- Big Brother 7, and obviously I'm going to reference Channel 4 a lot considering this is the first Channel 5 series I've watched. I've been quite positive about Power Trip until now.

You should give BB14 a try. That's the only channel 5 series I've even remotely enjoyed. :laugh:

They all had a sense of humour about them which the BB15 cast is seriously lacking.

I'd really like to watch it :(, it's just bloody Channel 5 going round blocking every video! :rant:

That explains it then, If you only started watching C5 BB there would be a massive change

BB13 >

Watch BB13

BB14 is dull as ****

I know the new housemates talk is getting boring, but if they got two females and a male like BB6 to come in now BB15 would be a lot better. Kinga and Orlaith really spiced things up when it was just going to be Makosi and Vanessa left if Orlaith hadn't come in.

I'm not talking about changes at all, I'm talking about what the majority of people are saying though

OMG you sex icon. :love:

Do not watch BB14 though bbz

kk.

How involved is Brian tho? :umm2:

Make a thread in the BB13 section I want to see what you think about it

Just eviction shows but BB13 is honestly just as good as the golden years. BB6 is my favourite then BB5/BB7/BB13

Oh dear, you make one comment and all the pettiness "no, no, watch this BB instead" starts. :laugh:

I'd advise maybe watching the 12, 13 and 14 launch shows and seeing which one grabs you from the start. For me, 13 was just people too unlikeable for me to enjoy it.

Not really pettiness just suggesting the better season to watch :unsure:

BB12 is the worst series of reality tv so dont even bother with the launch.

.... in your opinion. Others disagree.

After BB13 watch CBB9 & CBB13

Have you not watched any C5 CBBs either?

I'd recommend any of the three January series, the August ones were all pants.

I saw Charlotte Crosby's one.

In that case, it was literally pants. :umm2: :laugh:
