Because there are SO many different elements to such a huge format that you could never properly learn anything about the show by watching 'bits and bobs'. Maybe an entire season was a stretch, but certainly something like ten episodes. If you know what a show is about and how it works then you can sufficiently decide whether it's good or not or whether you like it or not, I don't see how anyone can judge something they basically know nothing about. You can argue that you don't want our format to change or that you're not interested in trying out other formats sure, but to criticise a format you've never seen is just dismissive and and well unfair seeing as you can't possibly know enough about it

Again, I've not seen enough of BBAUS (and I don't really plan to, public voting formats aren't for me anymore unless it's our version) but I wouldn't sit here and say 'ew no it's crap' because I simply don't know enough about it? I know how the nominations process works but that's it, how could I judge something I've not seen enough of? I just don't comment on it
