So we are a few weeks in now what do you think of this season so far?

Anyone changed their initial opinions of it?

[Niamh.]

I like it although upon further reflection and reading yours and Roys posts in the Girl Power/Boy Power thread, I do agree that there's far too much interference and manipulation from producers

[Josy]

I like it too but also wish there was less manipulation and I really want to have a normal nomination and eviction process.

[billy123]

Im not that into it to be honest. The producer manipulation seems really ott this year and the housemates are pretty poor the women in the house in particular have been a bad bunch and far too unlikeable.

Its like they sent out a memo that they wanted strong women this year and some inexperienced kid in charge of choosing housemates came back with a bunch of gobby cows thinking thats the same thing.

I started to lose interest around this time last year during the last series and i'm still enjoying it this time round, so yeah i like it.

I agree

[Kazanne]

I can take it or leave it tbh,which is not what I am usually like with BB,but it's getting better (hopefully)

[reece(:]

Same as last year, progressively getting worse because of the overload on twists.

[Samm]

I like it

[Jamesy]

I like it. Not jumping up in the air over it but it's something to watch and enjoyable to a certain extent.

[erinp5]

Struggling with it and we are only on week four .

[Locke.]

The best since the Anton/Aaron year, I have usually started to lose interest by now

[Achilles]

Liked it so far but I am going to find it difficult to remain interested with Danielle on my screen for the next several weeks. I would prefer even Pauline or Toya to still be in the house in place of Danielle. I just detest everything about Danielle.

[Cherie]

Just not captured my attention, can't quite explain why, maybe it is due to extremely unlikeable HMs, and the ones that are reasonably likeable come across as mega boring. Terrible tasks so far, did they sack the task team involved in the last CBB as they were some great tasks in that, and showing none of the usual stuff like the food shopping which was a big thing in previous years, even though they lost the shopping task we have seen nothing about it really, no delivery, no taking food away, just carried on as normal. very little of anyone in the Diary Room and when they are it's not interesting, I could go on but I won't

[Cal.]

I agree with the post above. I do like it, but we're not seeing any classic scenes like them doing the shopping list or receiving the shopping, and we hardly ever see the diary room if I'm honest. They need to improve tasks also, and then I'll be happy. They sacrificed a lot of air time in week two because every scene was housemates discussing the power housemate which was quite boring.

[joeysteele]

I wasn't impressed at the start,then I thought it was improving strongly,now however I am disillusioned again and for me it is slipping downhill.
Mainly thanks to the noms and eviction twists that are really annoying me now.

[uniquedude]

week 3 was the best week with hurricane Toya, I'll give it an 7 although I have a suspiscion it could go downhill from here

[Rob!]

I'm absolutely loving it tbh. There's some really interesting characters this year and for me the power trip theme has proved fascinating in places.

[Razor]

I love BB

[Daniel.]

It's ok.

Week 1 was good, week 2 good, week 3 great but I've been bored of the last few episodes tbh - only Ashleigh is keeping me watching.

[flamingGalah!]

I like it, but am not loving it as much as I normally would & I agree about the constant manipulation, that isn't what Big Brother is meant to be about, so they are screwing with the format far too much for my liking...

[Yoshi888]

I like it but wish they would bring back the blackboard shopping list and also them having more takeaways as a reward. What the house needs is someone like Sam Pepper to bring a bit of fun and couple of hot girls who will get nude and make the other girls upset. I think we could extract more yet from Helen by winding her up more an how about a bar mitzvah party for Matthew as long as he does not want to swing a chicken around his head.

[Mystic Mock]

I like this year, but I am worried that all the entertainers will be voted out which is very similar as to what happened in BB5.

This!

This is only the second post I have made this year - says it all really. What a shame...

[billy123]

The way they have destroyed the diary room is an annoyance to me, They end up relaying back so much of what is said in the diary room to the house that you can pretty much forget anyone ever giving decent reasons for nominations or expecting anything to be private in there as its almost standard to show them to the house now.
