None of us watch to see the "happy house" or "pow pow" obviously. Somewhere in between.

I watch to see how people interact in a group. Bickering and the odd flare up that occurs naturally is interesting - setting up housemates like Helen and Marc purposely to wind housemates up, cause anxiety and mayhem etc. is destructive, cruel, disgusting and unpleasant to watch. Placing housemates under unbearable stress and then severely restricting their diets putting them on basic rations most of the time is, imo, unnecessary. BB producers need to be more responsibile for stopping situations before they get out of hand - Marc threw a sofa over with Joel on it for instance on tonight's show and nothing was said. Let Joel or Chloe do that it's a warning immediately.
I complain fairly regularly about the goings on on the house to C5 and Ofcom where I deem it necessary. The housemates should be treated humanely and with respect - sadly his is not always the case. IMO, we can't rule out long term emotional and psychological damage after leaving the show, only time will tell.
I really don't believe BB as a show is relevant for today's TV viewing - not in it's present form. It's no longer an interesting social experiment - it's become embarrassing and if I could I would have the show shut down for good.
