:amazed: exciting times ahead.

Thank God! hopefully they see sense and take Big Brother back to the golden days

Viacom is the same company that owns CBS in the US right?

It sounds promising that they are already sharing shows between channels maybe BB will be shown over other channels aswell maybe live feed

:joker:

Big Brother: Geordie Shore
Big Brother Tits and Minge
Big Brother: ****in' Av It!!!

yasssss!

Ah I may tag along next time if there is a different venue but cant bear to watch anymore in its present status.

No more Richard Desmond party:)

No just SpongerDee! :joker:

Back to the stone age reality show !!

Still waiting on a contract announcement for Big Brother... Hopefully they won't leave Big Brother to waste and will focus on it, instead of turning all their attention to this new reality show.

Back to the Stone Age :suspect:
I hope is a reality competition show

Vicom have bought Channel 5
 

Have just seen it on DS

Desmond gone ? OMG.

What's this

:umm2:

It's like Utopia but edited like Geordie Shore. I presume they'll be like 14 contestants with an elimination every episode.

Sounds good tbh

20? Hmm.

Didn't he save BB from the Channel 4 scrap heap. Yah **** him:joker:

So does this mean we could see a different kinda CBB in January then

I don't think they'll change CBB.

The cant be any worse surely.
The have other reality shows.

I have high hopes there goodcwith big brother

I hope so because Dick Desmonds set up was horrid.

I guess it depends on a number of factors and where Viacom's priorities are.

They may have no intention of changing Big Brother and leave it as it is. They may poke their noses in and have the whole production take a massive shift, and if they went down that route it depends how soon they do it. I'm not sure how far in advance CBB starts planning so there might be some time to change that although I doubt it. I can see BB16 having the 'new' look and changes under Viacom.

Most of us are assuming Viacom will change Big Brother though. They might do nothing.

10,000 BC sounds like Survivor and BB1, just back a few centuries. Sounds interesting. I swear though, if this has a live feed and not BB....

SpongeBob though! :cheer2:

Interested as to what this will mean for BB, if anything

I dont know but have you seen that geordie shore was heavily promoted on ch5 yesterday

Yeah, more MTV adds too

Yes, I wonder what will happen for the lead up of January. More promotion on other channels, other papers? I don't know what to expect.

Correct.

I really hope that they change the C5 and BB branding :fc:

I hope after jan they get started straight away and change the house design and them go back to housmates arriving in cars/bikes take away that stupid eye and do interviews in a different rooms so the baying mob cant ruin them

the thing I'd love most is an exterior change with entrances by cars... I think it would be the main way to make launch nights feel more like an event
