Is Big Brother past its use-by date?
 
Even though the ratings are a fraction of what they used to be
Do you think the format is now past its shelf life?

LukeB 11-10-2014 05:37 PM

depends

It's fine and still a great format but they should calm down with The Twists.

They need to pick a handful of interesting, diverse housemates and let them get on with it.

JoshBB 11-10-2014 05:42 PM

No, absolutely not! The show just needs a bit of a makeover tbh, keep it more like C4 bb but keep the housemates on the tv screens because I like that feature.

If they sack the current producers and actually listen to the fans than it can still work.

Jordan. 11-10-2014 05:48 PM

Yes

been tripe for ages but BB13 was only 2 years ago and that is one of my fav series so idk

Jamesy 11-10-2014 06:09 PM

Yes and no.

The format itself is timeless and could easily last for many years to come. Although with current production it's a little bit of a mess. BB14 was a huge step in the right direction. Although with BB15 having twists every week, nominations played with and generally very dragged out edits (usually on negative events) the show still feels a bit messy. Mix that in with evictions of Marcus bellowing the countdown and cameras being waved around like toys, you would swear the show is being made by college students.

I think it has a future in the UK. Although all the channels don't seemed bothered to spruce it up and make the show great once again. Creating new shows is what UK television is all about at the moment.

Umm2

I don't think it is. If they can produce a quality series then it could work for years. If they continue with BB14/15 then it has no life left at all.

BB13 proved there's still potential, but not with this production team.

Fetch The Bolt Cutters 11-10-2014 08:13 PM

BB7 was only good for nikki and aisleyne

Fetch The Bolt Cutters 11-10-2014 08:13 PM

Daniel. 11-10-2014 08:14 PM

Lea :love:

Macie Lightfoot 11-10-2014 08:43 PM

BB7 is all about Susie Verrico tbh

Udanax 11-10-2014 08:47 PM

I actually think Nikki is just okay. Like yes she's iconic and she does have a lot of great moments but there are parts of the Nikki Grahame experience that are rlly uncomfortable.

Shaun 11-10-2014 08:48 PM

i like you, backwards xanadu.

nikki appreciation:love:

but it's a classic series tbh, BO Dawn, Bonneh, Pete:love:, Shahbaz, Lisa, they're all great:love:

It has the best half ever, let's just say that - and possibly the best first week
