er....(whispers) this really is a terible series so far?
 
getting no mentions in the DM, no real debate on Tibb, no sides so real faves save Raph. Is it time to call this BB an all-time dud?

Oliver_W 14-06-2017 11:56 AM

It has potential. Save normal noms and tasks which don't involve the outside world, BB should leave 'em to it and it might be good.

T* 14-06-2017 11:56 AM

They've put quite a few model-y duds in there, I only really like Chanelle, Raph, Sukh and Imran
Everyone else is really airtime whorish and the rest of the time they're full af

Sorry but Sukhvinder is the biggest airtime hog I'm afraid!

MTVN 14-06-2017 12:02 PM

Yeah I think it's been pretty dire, they haven't got it right with the cast at all, they're all far too samey. Hasn't helped that two of the only different ones have been the first two out

chuff me dizzy 14-06-2017 12:04 PM

Nothing in Star and it used to be in every day ..... a series where I dont have a fav ,I dont like a single person in there and Ive never known it before ... 1st time Im ever wanted new hm8s just so i can like someone

Tis pretty crap LT that's for sure.

Crimson Dynamo 14-06-2017 12:07 PM

Getting rid of Mandy was terrible as was letting Arthur walk for no good reason

Tom was a disaster (as was the whole peoples champion concept)

and so far not one good task?

JTM45 14-06-2017 12:08 PM

It's **** and getting worse by the day for the exact reasons T* stated. Crappy, wanky model-y dud types! I'd rather real people with real conversations and personalities and the like. Look how quickly the majority of this lot got excruciatingly tedious. ''Ooh.....let's wrestle again.....'' . :bawling:<Me

Just 'cos they couldn't hack it on LI/EOTB why do they feel the need to infect the actual BB ?

Arthur, Raph and Charlotte would have all nominated Joe. :fist:

Evictions in the first week are a load of rubbish anyway!!!

Arthur should have stayed!

I don't know why on launch night they can't just leave things alone but no we get some people's housemate rubbish!!

Then not even a week later we get more pseudo celebrities(ever so slightly more famous than what we already have) going in.

Cherie 14-06-2017 12:13 PM

It's not sparked to life on TV and the forum is dead when you would usually see a lot of returnees apart from Caravan club

Vanessa 14-06-2017 12:13 PM

I think unless they drastically change everything there is no point in making another bb series. And yes letting Arthur go was a big mistake. Him, Raph and Charlotte were the only normal one and a good contrast to the plastics.

Arthur was far from normal but yeah they should have kept him in I think.

sampvt 14-06-2017 12:15 PM

it all comes down who goes in. this year it smacks of a cheap cbb.

Yes, but compared to the others he was :laugh:

Exactly. The only normal people are Raph and Charlotte.

Locke. 14-06-2017 12:17 PM

Really enjoyed it so far. I haven't watched BB properly in 2-3 years so not sure how it has been in that time but I've much preffered it to every series I've watched bar BB9 and BB12

Well it depends on your criteria for normal I guess...

vesavius 14-06-2017 12:20 PM

It has some really unlikable people in it, but I think it's actually a solid season so far

Sort of how I feel.

Vanessa 14-06-2017 12:22 PM

It will do fine if they show it at 9 pm. People are in bed at 10 pm, so most won't watch.

Agreed!!!
I love Sukhvinder to bits. :lovedup:
Yeah, she's a slightly troubled soul at times but that just makes her more interesting (and human!) to me.
She has good intentions and she talks about actual stuff instead of tit-jobs and blow-jobs.
I just hope that Imran survives on Friday to talk her down off the ledge when necessary.

MTVN 14-06-2017 12:27 PM

tbf someone like Tom is pretty 'normal', hes just a bit of a dick

Rob! 14-06-2017 12:29 PM

I don't think it's all that bad tbh, it's certainly more entertaining than some series

JTM45 14-06-2017 12:34 PM

Back in the day i could barely wait for that night's episode of BB every day. These days i almost hope i've got the time wrong. During some recent Series' i've almost come to dread each episode at its worst points or skipped them all together!

Daniel-X 14-06-2017 12:36 PM

I like it but it's not standing out yet properly to me, there's no real flow and arguments seem to spring up from everywhere. The cast bar a few (like LEGEND Channers) are really unlikeable too.

I don't find her entertaining at all. I think she's awful. Just my opinion though.

LukeB 14-06-2017 12:38 PM

It started off great but it kind of went down a bit some of the recent episodes have been quite meh really.

and i'm finding the cast meh each time i only care about 4 people really and that's about it.

bots 14-06-2017 12:41 PM

It is pretty telling when failed z listers first went on CBB to try and ignite their careers, and now they have to resort to civvy BB

What beats me is why life's proven wannabe failures are encouraged on to the show. They are not entertaining. When all they can do is flash their fake breasts or tattoos and hurl expletives at each other, is it really a platform for bigger and better things? Whats the point, its not entertaining, and its not a social experiment, and without those its a non starter

I actually like Chanelle, yes she's been disgusting at times and deserved her warning but she's quite fun.

However, housemates like her are at the core of their problems in my opinion. Fame hungry, pseudo celebrities who go from one reality TV show to the next.

She's keeping the show afloat though? She is the solution to their problems.

so true :love::love:

QueenCharley 14-06-2017 01:02 PM

I definitely think Timebomb and last series started off worse tbh.

This series has had a lot more natural drama circulate, and despite some casting duds, I think it's been one of the better casts we've seen in a long time.

It's still early days too but I'm pretty confident.

Casting is a very weird thing. People were so happy to see Deborah and Hannah (who I personally like may I add) being cast pre-season and thought they'd be entertaining, but as of yet, they really haven't added much in my opinion to the show.

Whereas, someone like Chanelle, who a lot of people weren't keen on because of her reality TV past is now quite popular not only on this forum, but on Facebook and Twitter too.

You just can't project how things may turn out.

Jake. 14-06-2017 01:22 PM

It was going really well, the last couple of nights have been a bit meh
