Does anyone else not watch Big Brother 'Live' anymore?
 
I haven't watched a 'Live' Highlight Show of Big Brother since CBB8.

Mainly because my family don't like this series [the bastards] so I'm not like forced to watch it with them.

So I just record it and BOTS and watch them at like 1 in the morning.

Means you can fast forward breaks :p and then I read on here what has happened and look out for it in the HL show.

Does anyone else do this?
I'd hate to think it's just me, but it is awesome just skipping the breaks - and of course fast forwarding all the sh*t bits on Bit on The Side, like the other day when they got that fat family on - skipped the whole thing.

I've watched it on demand 5 a few times, and the repeats the next day, but I feel like I can't come into the BB section until I've seen the latest show or I don't know what people are talking about :laugh:

Can't watch live shows if they are recorded it ruins the feeling

Yeah like I don't watch the Evictions recorded, would never do that.

Because as you said it ruins the feeling - even if it is on like a 40 minute delay :bored: but also the result would be spoilt.

I haven't watched it live since Nadia won (I think)

I sky+ everything and miss all the adverts.

Maia 21-09-2011 10:49 PM

I always watch the highlight shows live. If I can't watch it on a TV then I watch it on TVCatchup. I hate missing an episode, even if I know I could watch a repeat of it :tongue:

I watch the HL show 'live' and watched a few BOTSs on demand 5 but I've kinda gone off it. It's been on more in the background since Pete Burns left

Didn't watch from the start cause I was in the middle of moving and now i'm drastically behind even if I've watched 8 shows...

Callum 22-09-2011 06:41 AM

The past few nights I've either watched it through Sky+ recordings or on the 5Demand iPad app.

Samuel. 22-09-2011 07:20 AM

Watched CBB8 on Youtube. But for this series, I'm watching it live through TVCatchup. I enjoy seeing the reaction in the highlight show thread.

Jordan. 22-09-2011 09:04 AM

Prefer to watch it when it's on and talk about it in the discussion thread.

[2] was the only good bit about CBB8 for me.

Otherwise I have watched most of the channel 4 series not live and prefer watching them alone but during CBB8 I could barely get through an episode without anything else to do.

MargeryFan 22-09-2011 01:02 PM

I prefer to watch it live now because it's getting interesting and it's hard to come on here and not know what everyone's talking about.

mymidas 22-09-2011 02:28 PM

I never watch anything on commercial channels live i always have a 15 min delay to get rid of the adverts. DVR probably the best invention ever for this video you had to wait till the end of the program. I doubt I actually watch more than half of the actual show I skip through all the romance nonsense I look at the tasks and any chat not releated to who fancies who and all that. BBOTS I record and watch the news bit the rest is not worth bothering with awful show badly produced and presented.

BigBrotherfan4ever 22-09-2011 02:35 PM

I always watch it live, not on less i've been out, when the HL's have been on.

JohnnyBB 22-09-2011 02:38 PM

i watch it via the demand 5 app on ipad.

HBB1508 22-09-2011 02:40 PM

I sky+ it so I can skip the adverts but always watch the eviction shows "live".

Glenn. 22-09-2011 02:43 PM

I do the same. Sometimes I watch it the next day if I don't forget. Last week I had 4 to watch :eek: I caught up with them. I only watch it 'live' on my days off or if I haven't got to get up early the next day. It's on too late for me. If I have to choose between BB or sleep, sleep wins everytime.
