Unfortunatley all we hear is boos now since the crowd act like they are at a ****ing pantomine.

Agreed. Get rid of all 3 of those things!!!

Aspecially the music as the housemates are leaving the house.

[CharlieO]

I would hate that, the effects and stuff were the stupidest thing on earth. Like the ridiculous space ship

And the eviction videos they started in BB10 like hira:the songs
which waste valuable interview time.

[AJ.]

It's got more & more like BBUS every series. They should go properly back to basics.

['Conor]

They better get rid of a song playing when a housemate is leaving the house!

[BringItOn]

I was thinking about this the other day, it just didn't suite Big Brother and made the show tacky. I hope they don't send hms out of the house for tasks either this time.

And Rachel flying over the house as a super hero, you knew the show was a joke then.

oh ffs, forgot about this

Everything about BB11 was just a tacky mess.

Time to go back to just normal editing :s

[TheManWhoLaughs]

I agree about the music during the exits, but I liked having music montages during the task (otherwise they wouldn't show anything at all) and the "Previously on Big Brother..." recaps. It made things look more professional.

Of all the problems with BB11, the editing wasn't really one of them.

[AJ.]

The gimmicky effects on launch was crap aswell. Hope they go back to just arriving in cars & walking through the crowd!

No, it made it look like hollyoaks.

Yes, because I don't agree with you 100% I'm obviously a new fan who has only just started watching

I don't think they should fiddle around with the actual bulk of the show but the tasks have always been a joke anyway, so a bit of music could help it a bit more tense.

No, because you said it needs music montage over tasks or they wouldn't show anything atall even though they haven't been used in the past & worked much better imo.

If music is needed to give a moment emotion then it's obviously lacking itself. Don't get me wrong the tension music before davina says the name etc is good but playing the benny hill theme tune over every task is just a joke, it's supposed to be a reality show, it should feel a little more organic & real imo, like it's hardly been edited & you could be sat watching it live.

[CharlieO]

I think it should just go back to BB5-7 days when there were enough twists and shocks to make it entertaining regularly but not too over done that it looks tacky, cheap, underdone and not cared about.

[_Seth]

I will be proper pissed off if those dumb effects return.

The whole point of reality TV is so we can see the real-ness of it all. It's not a film, there shouldn't be silly effects. I wanna see the raw atmosphere within the house and see what it's actually like, what the vibe is within.

Eviction music upon leaving the house MUST go as well.

[Stu]

The stripped down yet highly polished production of the show was one of the things that drew me in to it. Title sequence, credits sequence, break bumpers, scene break stings, time bar and nothing but Marcus Bentley's voice is the way it should be. Anything else makes it look like a cheap compromise. You're not going to get extra ratings by pasting songs over tasks.

they should make it more like bbus with music, but no extra effects.

HELL NO!!!!!!!

America sucks they have to overdramatise everything. They even play soppy songs on the news over there.

We want to see REALITY and the real vibe from inside the house.

Music just minipulates situations.

PS: Excpect major backlash for your comment...Shame on you

I'd rather it retain it's own identity instead of just copy the inferior, more conventional and thus less special American production design.

"inferior" what r u basing that on?
Big Brother US gets way higher ratings and the ratings are getting higher each year. It also has high production value since its on CBS which i dont think will be there on channel 5

R u? Speak English.

I wasn't talking about the quality of the entertainment - although I think that blows too. I was talking about the show identity and production which is painfully better in the UK version. Back in the day Big Brother had cutting edge promotion and graphics. The logo alone has become a cultural touchstone. The American version in comparison is very humdrum and conventional.

You're entitled to your own opinion of course but mine is that you would want to be either incredibly biased or on some sort of drug that numbs the brain to creativity to think the American production design is superior.
