if they had to switch up the UK series, which of these scenarios would you rather?
 
All hypothetical of course.. Just a bit of fun.

Scenario 1 - Housemates play for the HOH, the HOH nominates 2 housemates for eviction the housemates play for the VETO and ultimately the viewers decide who leaves.

Scenario 2 - Viewers decide the 2 least liked housemates - Those 2 go head to head in the Veto. The HOH decides the new nominee before the house decides who is evicted.

Scenario 3 - The public pick the HOH, the HOH makes their nominations and the public then vote to veto one persons nomination. The HOH then puts up a replacement nominee. The public can't vote the same housemate as HOH for 2 weeks in a row. Housemates cannot be HOH more than 5 times in the series.

Scenario 4 - House nominations take place as normal. Housemates compete in a VETO to make themselves save. The housemate with the next highest amount of nominations will take their place ultimately the public decide who's evicted.

Scenario 5 - Each housemates gets 5 points to split amongst up to 3 housemates that they want to be HOH for that week. The HOH puts up 3 housemates for eviction, those 3 housemates play for the VETO and one of them become safe. The public then decide who is evicted.

Scenario 6 - Full BBUS/BBCAN rules


What would you do to switch up our series?

I think having a format like BBCan/BBUSA would give the show a nice boost of life, to shake things up.

That said, I can't see BBUK viewers or producers being happy with the idea of the evictees and winner not being chosen by the public.

Therefore, Scenario 1 is probably the best option.

I would love BBCAN/US format but I think it will kill the show as I don't think the British public will like it

I definitely wouldn't want to HMs deciding who goes. I would stop watching

I think we could adjust it to suit a british audience, i mean Big Brother as a series can be done a million and one ways and yet the producers insist to create forced drama. It needs something fresh imo, i think that could be taking some aspects from the US.

#4 would be the only one I'd be happy with. The lack of full nominations is one of the worst things about the current state of the show, I certainly wouldn't want them to be officially axed and replaced with just a HoH nominating.

I'd be down for a veto style thing though, I really liked the Save and Replace in BB11.

#1

(Sounds like BB Brazil which would work over here)

Scenario 1 is the only one I like the sound of I guess.

Lostie! 13-04-2016 02:52 PM

I'm curious, why do people prefer #1 to #4 when people usually want the return of full house nominations? :laugh:

1 is just about the worst, most pointless thing they could do. There is absolutely no point in trying to bring strategy to BBUK and turn it into a game if you're still going to allow the public to vote people out cause ~omg they spoke in an episode~ or ~omg she's a vile slut and he's so fit innit~. The point of implementing the US format is to turn it into the game it should be, but that can't work while it remains a glorified popularity contest where no one survives on any kind of merit. The house vote is the most important aspect to introduce, otherwise there's no point in bothering.

2 could be good because you'd cull the dull every week for sure, no problem with that. 3 wouldn't be too bad in still allowing the public some control although crucially not over who leaves, I'd change it so that they can't Veto noms too though...that's pointless.

4 is dull as hell and 5 is just messy and not at all exciting. 6 is the best option, and there's no reason why it couldn't be tweaked slightly so the public still get to have some influence - in fact it would add another dimension to the game.

Out of the scenarios listed I'd choose 1 (but overall I'd prefer that they just introduce the BBAU noms format/superpower and retain the public vote).

Natalie. 13-04-2016 03:33 PM

4 I suppose

I would like save and replace back
