What are your thoughts on this? What does it mean and do you have them?

There's a difference between having some kind of emotional connection though and seeing them as role models.

I don't agree, it's just a game show, and although feeling sorry for some of them and hoping they can go far in the game might be normal, getting far too attached to housemates who once out that house will probably in all honesty apart from a few, not give their fans a second thought unless it is of some benefit to their ego's is not worth it. If we can step back and just view it as a game and accept for the most part, who wins and who gets evicted, it is is better for us probably. BB is mostly in control now, not us, as some of us have already debated in posts.

I disagree that it's normal to have an emotional connection to the housemates.

Why on earth would anyone have an emotional connection to someone they only see through a tv screen, in highlighly manipulated edits?

I agree with you, it might be common for many people but I don't see the point in it at all.

I see what she's saying, the HMs do spark emotions in us, look how we defend or ridicule our Favourites/least favourites on here. I don't think it's a deep emotional attachment to them personally but emotions are certainly involved

I don't have any emotional connection, honestly. I may like or dislike their behaviour - but there is no emotional connection for the housemate as a person. That's the angle I'm coming from.


Clearly they illicit a reaction from me based on their behaviour - but to me, I could never regard that as me having an emotional connection to the housemate/s.

I do, like I said It's not a strong connection and it's one that disappears as soon as BB ends but I'll hold my hands up and say that occasionally ( ) I may let bad behaviour of my favourite HM slide, when I'd be all over it if it were a HM I didn't like. If there wasn't some sort of emotional connection towards your favourite HM then your favourite HM would be constantly changing..........in my opinion of course .

Oh I completely understand where you are coming from. Just for me personally, there is a difference between emotional reaction based on someone's behaviour and emotional connection to a housemate.

I personally think they are two very different things.

lol I'm exactly the same Niamh, I relate 100%

If I didn't care a little bit about my fave I wouldnt have any kind of investment in the show and it would be interesting at all to me.. It's not like BB is an intellectual excercise eh?

But when the series is done, or they leave that house for any reason, I am done with them and have no further interest in their further lives or careers.

housemates that stir up feelings inside you.. be them good or bad, might be a way of describing it.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I agree with Pyramid. I don't understand how some people go bat s*** crazy over housemates or actors and such.

I suppose it would be a different story if we had the live feed and saw things uninterrupted but especially since it's a one hour edited show it's hard to put things in their proper perspective and gain an emotional connection. Also, another thing that would help an emotional connection would be a sobby back story, but I don't think anyone has one really.

I don't know. Personally, I just don't get that invested in housemates.

I'm talking about HMs in general, over all the years of big brother, not just this year. And I'm not talking about going bat sh** crazy over anyone either!

In all honesty, I'm trying to remember but I don't think I've had an emotional connection to anyone in the past really. I started watching full seasons from BB9, and saw bits of BB8 & 7 but no can't think of anything. Then again, as far as I know, I started watching during the s*** years didn't I? lol!

Neither do I, don't understand it all at.

There's an element of fun, and mocking as in anything such as BB which is all pantomime at the end of the day - but nope, I don't have emotional investment, attachment, or real connections with people I see on a tv screen.

I genuinely think, that we all actually agree here but have different ideas what emotional connection means.

so far we've seen several people tell us how they have no emotional connection but invariably the same people have not bothered to enlighten us as to what it means to them though.

I think you should start reading posts a little more closely fruitcake - there are plenty of reasons being given. It seems you are chosing very deliberately to simply not accept that the 'same people' simply are not agreeing with you.

Well as in any game,sport or event, you usually take a side or sides.
I am likely to then really support the side/s I choose very strongly particularly against unfair play or criticism.

With BB in the past although,I chose more often not to than do so,we had near 24 hour coverage, when you are able to watch people for possibly that long, you will form some emotional connection,whether that's just liking, wanting to learn more and more or really disliking them, they are al interest and emotions.

By the time you are at the end of the series,it is possible you have watched and heard them for longer than you have friends or even some family in that time the series is on.
Sort of like working with someone for a few months then seeing them go,you still form some connection despite hardly really knowing them.

This series is causing more anger because its fan base is iritated at the very least not to have live feed,we are being shown lots of things totally seen and heard but often not of full context.
That makes it harder to know really the facts. I get worked up and did so very strongly during CBB too, what is annoying me in this series is that I may be misjudging housemates as I feel I have as to Faye now due to the tiny amount of footage we are being shown.

The fact I feel that I have misjudged her,is though another emotion so I guess I would have to say I do form emotional connections to housemates.
That won't influence my everyday life or what I do in the future but as with any situation that has me at least taking a side or sides then for a while my emotions may run very high indeed as to them sometimes.

The great thing about human beings is we are all different and can be very complex too.
It's also like on here, we may never meet the people on here we are communicating with daily with only the written word but we do feel the need at times to support some over others and get involved in heated debates too,again in this environment we are showing emotional connection.

I am very happy to say, that a good few people on here, I would miss massively and have done,if they weren't on here or I didn't communicate with or see posting.I may never meet them and therefore never even see or hear them but they matter in some way,there again is a sort of emotional connection too.
