People will probably object to this but we NEED the BBUSA/CAN format
I'd actually love to see it done over here if it was done properly
But Channel 5 literally only runs it for the voting money so it's unlikely :/

[Greg!]

BBUS format would be absolutely trash and that's that!

[Oaker]

BBUS format would kill the show lmao

...we had one of the best (and if not best, then bat**** craziest and bat**** craziness is one of my favourite things about this show) boot orders ever this series and this is your complaint?

It starts well and then every recent series is ruined by the damn ending

...But Kim would have been an early boot instead of 3rd?

They all might have played differently though so I don't think that necessarily would have been the case. They might have picked off threats instead if it was more of a 'game' format, instead of the type of people they nominate under this format.

They all accused Kim of game playing so I think she still would have been an early boot.

I've not seen BBUS but I'd LOVE them to at least trial the BBCAN format to see if it works

A mix of both (mostly USA) public votes to give their faves powers

[reece(:]

Here for Kim doing an endurance task for HoH

Thank you, I'm glad more people are realising this

If only more people like Bear/Helen won and then people would probably agree

*people who contribute to the series more, but yes that too

(I'd still be in favour of a format change, btw)

Like what would hurt about trying it in a spin off instead of the 2nd CBB series a year or something
That way the people who would be like ew no would get the format they want but also be able to try a new one

I think it would work better with civilian housemates though tbh, celebrities might be less inclined to be seen as gameplaying and being unpopular with the viewers for it, with it being a format we're not used to. There's not as much of an incentive for celebrities to win too as they get paid regardless, whereas there is for civilians.

That's what I mean- instead of a 2nd celebrity one a civilian one with the BBUS format and if it's successful perhaps a celebrity version would work

Oh yeah I see what you meant now I agree, a celebrity one could definitely work once the format has been established and people are used to it.

I actually think the US format during a celebrity series would be hysterical, the thought of Kim winning a Q&A HoH and calling Nicola and Speidi chicken livered ****s as she puts them on the block <3

Many people always say the US format works best when people play personally or indeed don't understand the game, CBB would be that all over

[Jarrod]

We don't need the BBUSA format. You're suggesting getting rid of the entire public input. People currently scream for more input from us and we need that to keep this show alive. Big Brother's original format isn't what is used in the USA and we need to keep what we've got. Changing the format so far into the show's run now would kill it straight out.

The Canada format has plenty of input though

I mean... like what? Sure, they used to have a lot of public input, but nowadays it's "vote for two wildcards (but you can only vote for a man and a woman)" or "choose somebody who could potentially be HoH based on the arbitrary spin of a wheel"

At least with BBUS the public get to give somebody money
