Yes that is a big wild card, how does Ch.4 view the performance of Best Ever? Do they feel that the fact that over a million people tuned to E4 for some episodes indicates significant interest or do they view the ultimate dropoff in viewership as an indication the same would occur in the case of a new series?
I think it was successful because at the end of the day what we're really talking about is how many people watched dressed up old BB repeats on E4 over 2 weeks in random order, and the answer is "a lot". Shows a good amount of hardcore fans are still out there.
