Underrated:

BB11 as besides the John/Josie showmance and the godawful quadruple near the final it was otherwise pretty enjoyable

BB15, even though I don't like it that much myself i include it here cause I think it gets a little too much hate and would honestly be way less hated if Helen hadn't won. For a series that only came out three years ago, the cast actually was refreshingly diverse and I was consistently interested in what would happen next (even if it sometimes didn't pan out how I wanted).

CBB8 gets a lot of hate, and even though I'm not big on it sometimes it had a charm of light-heartedness and harmlessness that made me a little confused that it got so much flack as if it was a damaging series. And the common accusation of "nothing happened" is pretty false. Sure it had that terrible love triangle conconcted by Lucien Laviscount but every other storyline was pretty interesting e.g. Darryn vs Bobby, Tara Reid's descent into madness, the Sally/Paddy hate/flirtmance, etc.

CBB12 doesn't necessarily get hate but I feel it should get talked about much more with a mostly strong cast, consistently entertaining and rarely went stale, and imo a better summer series than the pretty overrated CBB16.

Overrated:

BB8 was pretty bad and I feel like that only gets excused because Top 10 housemate Charley Uchea was in it.

BB18 would've largely been considered terrible if Isabelle hadn't won

CBB13 is not that great and it especially soured towards the end in the Jim redemption arc and the Sam/Ollie bull****, concluding with the 2nd worst final 2 ever. It was much stronger in its early-middle portion. The Casey/Lee/Jasmine triangle also gets a lot of praise but I feel like it was getting a little old after a while.

CBB16 is a great series but it was hugely carried by the Americans in its entertainment value with only about 2-3 British exceptions. It was a huge imbalance between the two sides of UK vs USA when it come to which I enjoyed more.
