The reason why the show is getting to the low 1 million viewers is quite simple. Reality TV is no longer a case of choosing members of the public for a show, not anymore, it is a breeding ground for professional reality wannabees that cant break into the mainstream media world on their own merrits.

This means we get force fed media *****s that follow a designed formula for winning.

This year we have Rylans mate, the fake and annoying Mark. Chris has a pre determined plan which is holding up because he has the producers in his pocket. Helen is there as a bitch and isnt disapointing. Ashleigh has a pushy mum with designs of dollars for her skanky plastic cindy doll daughter. Winston is a Towie wanabee. Kimberly is managed by a playboy manager and her live in BF who urges her to shag for fame. Steven is a potless live at home millionaire. Danielle is a Dexter managed wanabee and Marlon lied about his age to get into the show.

No longer is the show full of normal people, these latest bunch of tossers are scripted and media savvy so we are not dealing in real life experiences anymore and the GBP are sick of being force fed crappy storylines and scammer back stories, so they are switching off.

Yeah, I agree with the majority of that post. Big Brother is so different to what it used to be, I can't help myself from watching though :/

You have a point Sampvt regarding the civilian BB but I expect the CBB will get better viewing figures.

the show fails because its WAY TOO CONTROLLED AND MANIPULATED thus not allowing for ANY genuine relationships and attachments and loyalties, or even fun and laughter to form....as for love? ha forget it. the only love we ever saw was between helen and paul in big brother 2

I say this in every other post I make. The general public are not invited anymore. But they are relied upon to watch and vote while simultaneously being pooed upon from a great height by a television clique.

What I don't understand is why don't they just open it up to the public? I'm talking live feeds and open it up to the world and not just the UK. I'm from the US and I would gladly pay for a live feed in a heartbeat.

Also, why not put them all up every week and let the public decide who stays and who gets the boot. At that point, you'd have a lot more folks buying votes b/c since you have all of them up. Maybe even put up tasks, rewards, punishments up to a vote as well.

Wouldn't that increase their revenue? It's transparency and unbiased editing is what most people want. Not this manipulated, forced storyline bull**** we see now.

I agree the show needs to ditch these wannabes and get back to putting normal people in the house. Do this and it will flourish.

[smeagol]

this one is dying cause of helen

but yeah people tune in to see people who they can relate to. find they have nothing in common with them dislike them and turn of.

thats why bores win. cause no one likes wannabes

Big Brother UK 15 and World Cup 2014 Brazil.

The World Cup Football Tournment 2014 Brazil has been wreaking havoc
with Big Brother 15 transmissions - it was the same with World Cup 2006
and World Cup 2010,and vice versa.
Many people,who watch Big Brother do not want to miss the World Cup football matches,and at the same time they do not want to miss Big Brother UK,so this conflict splits the audience.I watched the first half of the semi final between Brazil v Germany - Germany won 7-1 !,but at 10 pm I watched
Big Brother and caught up with the second half during advertisement breaks,then watched Big Brother's Bit On The Side.......
No wonder that Big Brother 15 viewing figures are relatively down compared to last year's Big Brother UK ratings.
For me,Big Brother UK is just as interesting in 2014 as it was in 2006 when I first became a Big Brother Fan

I was genuinely not trying to be mean, don't think I ever have on here. I'm just really, really sarcastic. Just having a joke.
