CBBAU shelved - regular BB cancelled?
 
Quote:

It’s understood that in March the network asked Endemol, makers of the reality franchise Big Brother, to begin quietly casting for a celebrity version of the show.

After a few months of pre-production, that idea was abruptly shelved in mid-May, sources say. Endemol then quickly began exploring the possibility of a regular season of Big Brother but Nine wasn’t overly interested.

“They ditched that idea pretty quickly,” the source said. “It was crazy to imagine pulling together a full season in such a short space of time.”

Ah, that's a shame if true. 2013's series was brilliant, though they just didn't get it right last year.

CBB cancelled too?

Pete. 03-06-2015 12:15 PM

Regular BB needs to go on hiatus, not cancelled because the producers need time to recreate and think up new ideas

Mokka 03-06-2015 01:27 PM

It's hard to believe one bad series can ruin it all

Too bad... The pervious two were really good

Firewire 03-06-2015 01:28 PM

Hope they take a year out to rework it and come back with a regular series in 2016. Maybe a later time slot would work and less moving about in the schedules. The 2014 cast was good, it was just poorly executed.

Why don't they head over and show BBUK how to construct a consistent format?

Pete. 03-06-2015 02:10 PM

They should bring the nomination point format over here tbh

Yessss!!!! :clap1:

I don't think the family-friendly rebrand since it returned in 2012 did the show many favours. BB10 was good in spite of this, but it would have been even better with the Network Ten format. If a miracle happens and it eventually returns once again, I hope they consider that.

The production was brilliant though, despite it's flaws there are things BBUK could learn from BBAUS. The exciting nomination system, the tough enforcement of rules (especially nomination related ones), the crowd control at evictions, not having an overload of finalists, etc.

I loved that part of their format

Calderyon 03-06-2015 02:45 PM

I hope they bring both the points format and the nominations pod. And the stricter BB.

Yeah, and the nomination super power. :flutter:

Marsh. 03-06-2015 02:46 PM

Nominations chamber. :worship:

So they have to watch each other nominate....

"DID YOU GET THAT TULLY???"

I actually liked that the housemates couldn't use the F-bomb every second word... and family diners /discussions often lead to better arguments and discussion that just plying them with booze tbh.

The series itself was better than BBUK for watchability (over the same years)... imho... it just had one bad run that killed it.

If Priya won last series this wouldn't happen

Mokka 03-06-2015 06:04 PM

Priya </3

Calderyon 03-06-2015 06:33 PM

Dave should have won tbh.

Breaking the mould, what a queen

Mokka 03-06-2015 06:41 PM

Anyone would have been better than Ryan... lets be honest here
this was the only thing he brought to the show

anyone try the chicken ??

Pete. 03-06-2015 06:43 PM

I forgot who came 2nd until I looked it up LOL.

What a terrible final 2 and yet what do you expect from a male obsessed Australia

BBUKAUSFAN 07-06-2015 12:46 AM

sorta knew it wouldn't be on this year, i stopped watching last years when they set in the new housemates.

The reason it use to get so many people watch was a diverse cast of different ages not all 24 year olds.

Nine still hold the rights for BBAU and put aside the idea of CBBAU in favour of Celeb Apprentice.

Rumours flowing that apparently that they're trying to negotiate another 3 year deal for BBAU, which is what their contract was when Nine got it originally back in 2012 to see it air 2016-2018

And Channel5 are probably going to do the oposite, more cbb less civillian.
