would you watch BB without live feed?
 
i dont get it C5 said they are going back to basics and back to basics includes live feed! we NEEDto have it!
they brand the show as watching housemates 24/7 without live feed we wont be :/

Jordan. 25-06-2011 04:58 PM

Yeah, I dont think its THAT big a deal not to watch at all.

Patrick 25-06-2011 05:00 PM

Yes - we managed in 2009. :bored:

I still maintain that we need to protest or something or do something to make ourselves heard, because knowing those wankers on Digital Spy they'll lie down and take it like the pussies they are and that's the only forum Endemol or The Daily Star ever look at. :bored:

But then again when this happened 2 Years ago it was all 'LET'S ******ING RIOT!' '****** THE POLICE LET'S DO THIS!' and 'LET'S ALL SEND DEATH THREATS WOOHOO 2K9!'

And all that bollocks - and nothing ever came of it, except some legend who actually did send a death threat to the guy that ran Channel 4. :laugh:

So if we're going to do something - act now, not the 'I'll do it next week x.' approach.

Chuck 25-06-2011 05:01 PM

Yes, live feed is amazing but I'm way too unlucky to watch it when something interesting is happening anyway. :(

RichardG 25-06-2011 05:04 PM

Yeah, i'm not going to stop watching it just because there's no live feed, that's stupid. Live feed is great and all and the show isn't the same without it but at the end of the day, I love Big Brother, and nothing's going to stop me from watching it this summer. :dance:

happybbfan 25-06-2011 05:17 PM

They must know by now if they intend to have live feed tho.i thought the DS had an article on the live feed with multi cameras etc before the official announcement was made,anyone else remember this.

Jarrod 25-06-2011 05:46 PM

Yeah. I never even found out about the Live Feeds until UBB. I watched BBLive on E4. So i think i'd be ok without them :)

To send a death threat over a TV show which was on its way out? Lets get real.

And yes i would. LF does NOT make the show. It does not make ratings or improve the content. Im a Celebrity get me out of here has been the best reality tv show on TV for a good number of years now and the last 3 series or even before have had no LF and i have enjoyed them all.

It is complete nonsense to say BB is all about the LF. It isn't. I don't care too much about these common folk to watch them for hours. I only want to watch a quality 1 hour episode every night at 9 or 10 PM. Simple as that really.

DigitalSid 25-06-2011 06:35 PM

Not a chance.

Gillian-73 25-06-2011 09:16 PM

I'd still watch it there's no doubt about that but would prefer it to be there!

DigitalSid 25-06-2011 09:17 PM

Those who would's accepting what their given is what made it so hard to get it back for BB11.

joeysteele 25-06-2011 09:25 PM

Would be happier with it available but would still watch it, no problem.

AJ. 25-06-2011 11:40 PM

Hardly watched any of BB10 because of no LF, it's the whole point of the show fgs.

No Live-Feed just kills a massive amount of the 'spirit' and its interesting that core of hardcore fans online (TiBB) example might make a relatively small fraction but they FUEL the mainstream like mad.

No 'live feed updates' and you can really see the enthusiasm flat-line.

But yeah.. it really is a major premise that makes BB what it is. EVEN IF a lot don't watch feeds they are intrigued by the idea/challenge the HMs ARE being watched 24/7.

I'm awesome.

Jords 26-06-2011 12:17 AM

2nd option, and the 5 people who voted no lied..

I didn't :spin:

Ramsay 26-06-2011 12:22 AM

its never that good anyway

Malza 26-06-2011 01:01 AM

BB does not make any sense to me without live feed, the daily resume has his own made up story's, makes you see what they want you to believe.

Black Dagger 26-06-2011 10:03 AM

I would still watch, I'd be very annoyed and disappointed though...

joeysteele 26-06-2011 10:13 AM

It will also depend on how they edit this series too, I hope Channel 5 don't start to develop favourites and then ram them down our throats like Channel 4 started to do, especially last year with Josie and JJames, the times that even the highlights programmes had little else in them except them and that duvet was pathetic.

I hope their editing is fairer and portioned out equally as to time for all housemates but I do still think it will be better on Channel 5,certainly a vast improvement on production at least of it after the last series.

dizzy bint 26-06-2011 10:30 AM

I don't believe it truly is 'Big Brother' without the chance to watch live feed. Unless C5 somehow manage to get awesome housemates though I probably shan't watch it.

CharlieO 26-06-2011 10:31 AM

I would still But I wouldn't like it. The realism of the show will feel less promenant which is bad.

This is something which baffles me. Any time i do catch the LF on Big Brother, it is utter rubbish. A lot of the time you just hear bird sounds and the cut the noise out when people are talking a lot of the time.

What is the point in that?

ILoveTRW 26-06-2011 10:59 AM

Wheres the "I couldn't care less about live feed" option?

Marc 26-06-2011 11:11 AM

I don't think I've watched BB live feed properly since BB3/4

I never really thought that many people watched it. It wouldn't take away the appeal for me
