This poster from TV3 announcing they have broadcasting rights features Jarrod's viacom eye but also says 'Big Brother's Little Brother will air all series on 3e'
Does this mean BBBOTS has been scrapped for BBLB:fc:

Could have just got the name wrong but they're pretty much the same thing anyway

i wouldnt be shocked but it'd be stupid to not know the name of a programme you're broadcasting :joker:

Let's face it, considering they used Google Images for the eye, I doubt they'd have done their (up-to-date) research into any other areas of the show.

true :think:
(also i cannot find this anywhere from tv3, could it be fan made?)

Seems legit...

where did you find it?

MB posted it

(and I got it off Twitter)

i think it's fan made because jarrod has that eye in the op

Jarrod's eye pops up as one of the first results in Google images - it's been used by The Sun before.

It's a mistake, of course. C5 won't get rid of its own spin-off brand just to bring other channel's idea.
They just rushed to make the PR.

was it the genuine TV3 twitter account, i can't see that on their account

mess

They need to have a early evening house action show alongside BOTS after evictions only. Big Mouth never really got watched every night either come to mention.

I'm not sure of who originally posted it but I wouldn't put it past them to accidentally use this eye in their PR releases. Not that Twitter's always to be believed in any given scenario.

I don't know much about the british TV audience share, but I doubt moving BOTS to an early time slot would bring better figures. Also, BOTS as a pre-highlights show might spoil the main show events with all the "exclusives", making it a bit irrelevant (C5 can't afford it).

A BBLB-type show just wouldn't work nowadays, when the viewing figures for the main show aren't actually too different to what BBLB could have got back in the 'glory days'. Perhaps they could do a pre-eviction show on Fridays (in place of... what, the Gadget Show?), but I still wouldn't trust that to rate as well as the regular BOTS - I suspect a lot of people who watch BOTS only do so because they can't be bothered to change the channel after the main show. It's highly unlikely that anyone would tune in at any other time of the day for BB - just look at how Rylan's Big Brother All Star Supersized Bit on the Side Celebrity Sunday Extravaganza (I think that was its name) bombed.

They could do a lot worse than getting me on there.

That eye was the worst decision I've made :idc: It's appeared on all sorts of things.

bye I thought this was official

Agreed.




Yeah, I remember that rylan show (good name though XD). Did it have a full run or get axed midway?



C5 has a tight budget for BB (and a biannual cbb doesn't help), they tried to give some live feed and do an early spin-off - it didn't do well, and they're not willing to make another risk anymore. At the end of the day it's a business, and they better spend their budget on bb wisely. These days there's no room for the tradition factor.

Here for your eye appearing on Big Brothers Big Bumfest

Why not have both

Imagine if channel 5 unveil Jarrod's eye as the BB16 logo? :shocked:
