Their disregard for the civilian show is ****ing appalling and I am sick and tired of their obsession with CBB.

I remember the same rant you had yesterday.
I do agree with BIB. Ever since CBB13 and the rise of CBB, they've completely disregarded the civilian series, which I think is a shame.
They've already gotten one part of the format right. You'd think they put in the extra effort to get both formats right and go about the same way with Big Brother, as they do with Celebrity, the same way C4 did back in 2005 and 2006.
I think the amazing promo CBB15 had and the extremely dire and close to nothing promo Timebomb had is quite revealing of what C5 think of the Civilian run.
I personally think Civvy BB has had its day. Channel 5 don't seem to be putting any effort at all anymore, for a show they pay £40 million a year on. Which is a shame as just two to three years ago, they were producing some decent civilian series (BB13 and BB14).
Might as well kill it if they're not going to do it properly, save money, and focus more on what they're good at, which is CBB.
God knows how BB can go on till 2018.
How long is BB16 now, BTW?
