Should civilian BB be shelved?
 
?

Ashley. 10-07-2015 10:31 PM

Yes and no

Beetlejuice 10-07-2015 10:31 PM

If they are going to coninute on like this, yes.

If they can find someone who knows what he's doing... No

The show can still work, but they are pissing all over it

LukeB 10-07-2015 10:32 PM

Yes and No, it needs a break tbf

Ross. 10-07-2015 10:32 PM

If it goes on like this then kill it with fire.

Withano 10-07-2015 10:33 PM

Yes. Its so weird how they **** it up so hard when celebrity big brother is actually really good, better than most the cbb's off c4

nonstop 10-07-2015 10:33 PM

Yes. It's starting to smell and like a rotting corpse, needs to be disposed.

jackc1806 10-07-2015 10:33 PM

No if it's like BB13/14 next time

armand.kay 10-07-2015 10:36 PM

They should sack the themes the only theme they need is back to basics.

Jase. 10-07-2015 10:37 PM

Give it one more series. If that series turns out like BB15/BB16, then yes, put it out of its f'n misery.

RichardG 10-07-2015 10:42 PM

Ideally they should keep it but totally rebuild the next series and actually make a decent series like we used to get in 'the good old days', but I've been saying that every year and rather than getting better the show is just getting worse and worse. Clearly it'll never happen so yeah just axe it now it's embarrassingly bad.

Angelika 10-07-2015 10:42 PM

Who wants to see these wanna-be celebrity p#ss-takers anyway, not me!

Non of them have designs on real work or study - they all want to pose for a living. Bunch of losers! These are the folk, when asked what their hobbies are, say shopping. When asked what hey want to do for a living say to be famous. Society shouldn't encourage such shallow people to waste their lives and invade our living spaces via TV.

I say "put it out of its f'n misery" as soon as possible!

Jason. 10-07-2015 10:45 PM

Yes.

Everyone thought BB15 being awful would be a one off. But somehow they've managed to produce a much worse series than last year.
Civilian Big Brother has had it's day. The bad series, and the bad ratings confirm this.

It needs to be put down, before we have more bad series than good series. 15 years is the perfect way to end it.

BB died after BB14, TBH.

zakman440 10-07-2015 10:47 PM

Not really, no. They just need to get rid of those who are dragging the show down, replace it with all-stars next year and then come back totally revamped in 2017.

THIS

they ****ed with the format waaayyy to much this year it was all over the place, with no consistent rules in place it just felt like a bad scripted reality show with the producers deciding the shots.

This sam eviction twist was the final straw imo it was awful and I didnt even like sam

I wanted an all stars but they pretty much did that this year i would rather they replaced one of the cbb with an all stars.

Daniel-X 10-07-2015 10:51 PM

I'd give it one last chance with BB17 if that falls flat on its face there's no life in the old dog anymore

bots 10-07-2015 10:52 PM

i won't watch another series like this one so they can do what they want tbh

Jamesy 10-07-2015 11:01 PM

BB17 will really be the last chance they get. If we get a third crap series in a row then yes it needs to be gone from our screens for a few years or until some bright minds in television can bring it back with justice.

RodHull 10-07-2015 11:06 PM

It would help if they stopped recruiting reality tv wannabees and nearly z-listers and went back to a diverse set of genuine people, like this year and last most of them have had some hand in the entertainment business and it all feels very staged and fake

Vicky. 10-07-2015 11:07 PM

If all future shows will be as awful as this one, then yes

Glenn. 10-07-2015 11:10 PM

Yes and no tbh.

I'm fed up with people constantly complaining about every single little thing. It would be nice to have a few years off air to make people spend months and months making endless threads about wanting it back.

I don't mind fame hungry when its deluded and messy like the bb3-7(bar 4) casts, but this years lot probably have agents and they're more suited for scripted reality tv as they just aren't interesting.

Yeah I agree I wasnt very clear Im fine with the fame hungry the show needs that as BB4 proved. But like you say most of them now have agents and are on the cusp of the z list anyway it just ends up feeling like a preface to CBB with a **** cast each year.
