[QUOTE=ElProximo;3744312]Let me explain how this works:
A MASSIVE amount of what 'entertains you' is the combination of people and how they work in a social dynamic.

Do you understand that BB is NOT MEANT TO BE X-FACTOR or BGT?
Get it?
The idea is not that each individual comes out to your camera and then you see which one is the most entertaining.
WRONG.
NO!
First, its not even meant to be just 'entertaining' but intriguing, a social experiment, to make us think or analyze or study,
but,
When it does aim to 'entertain you' this is through and by a 'social group' and 'social interaction'.
NOT a series of individuals who, when its their camera time then 'show their stuff!' and are judged individually.

I miss the days when BB WAS a social experiement, series 1,2 and 3 certainly had this angle and were far more entertaining watching how different backgrounds and personalities mixed in an enclosed, sometimes self sufficient environment. It only started to turn when they got the dramatics / actors / wannabee WAGS etc in from BB5 onwards but by then and after a disaster of BB4 they had to make it bigger and better. IMO it wrecked the shows concept but I concede it has kept us talking over the years

I only wish for UBB they had stripped it all back and ran with the original format
