I have seen better but I have seen worse. Not a classic Big Brother vintage but it had it highs and it lows which made it entertaining.


As for the future:

The main show format is looking a bit tired. How you deal with that is a interesting discussion point for another thread. I think why Big Brother 5 was so successful wasn't just the Housemates but also down the show reinventing itself. Having a theme behind Big Brother was a great idea, i.e. Evil Big Brother or Big Brother from Hell. For one thing by having a Big Brother we can dislike it takes some of the heat off the Housemates and gives us something else to talk about. Those that remember Big Brother 5 will also remember how much discussion there was about the way Big Brother behaved.

I would like to see a format change for Big Brothers Big Mouth (BBBM) for next year. I believe that generating hatred for the housemates isn't a good idea and could backfire on the show producers when a housemate picks up a stalker or starts getting death threats. This is going to happen at some point if BBBM carries getting more extreme. Last years BBBM was about right compared this year which was over the top.

I liked the idea of Big Brothers Big Brain and would like to see more of this in the Big Brothers Little Mouth (BBLM). Further to this I want to a return of BBLM to it's normal time.

The way the show is presented interactively needs updating. The live feed in particular doesn't make good use of the medium. It should be possible to chose between feeds and have multi camera action options so that the viewer has more choice in what the decide to watch.

That's about it for now, but sure I will think up a few more idea's for Big Brother 8 and I will start a thread or two about them.
