People also have to remember that early BB was when reality TV was in its infancy and we didn't have the culture of reality TV then so it was a refreshingly new concept to most people. The production was nowhere near as big and there was no preconceived ideas about really what was expected of them. The HMs were more natural and there was much less playing up to the cameras. Give me early BB any day over what we get now...
