Just a bit?
I love the series and some of the housemates but it's often described as the most epic series ever, when a lot of the time post fight night there are episodes where hardly anything happens? I prefer 6 and 7 and would group it with the next lot of 10 and 13 somewhere, so it's top 5 but I think it's the least entertaining of the 'golden years' 5, 6 & 7. Some of the housemates though - Nadia, Michelle and the hilarious and underrated Ahmed and Shell  are easily top 20.

I can't really make an informed decision as of yet because I'm watching it now. I love it so far though and I'm only on week 2.

I think the problem with it is that the first 3 weeks are the most entertaining so then after the amazing fight night there's nothing to really look forward to, I think 6 and 7 are better though.
But the BB5 Housemates saved Big Brother when you think about it, Because if they had 2 BB4's in a row they might have cancelled the show! Last edited by GLENN BILL BB7; 03-06-2015 at 01:30 PM. |

I don't really like the term 'overrated', as it usually equals 'I don't like it but most people do'.
I don't think BB5 is overrated. It's an amazing series, and deserves all the love it gets. Granted, I think both BB6 and BB7 are better than BB5, IMO. With BB6 being my favorite series. But that's not to say, I didn't enjoy BB5. BB5 was a massive game-changer, and gave us the format of the show that we all know and love. Not to mention, kick started the golden era of the show - not only for BB but also CBB. EDIT: 3000TH POST! YAY! Last edited by Jason.; 03-06-2015 at 02:37 PM. |

Victor might just be the best male HM of all-time. And IDC what you say, without Victor, UBB would've been 100x worse. BB5 is great but Shell was really annoying and was responsible for Victor leaving over Jason, so why anyone classes her as an 'underrated housemate' is beyond me.

Victor was an amazing housemate. BB5 wouldn't have been the same without him. Same goes for Michelle. She was so fiesty.

I haven't reached fight night yet. It's approaching. Michelle and Emma have just entered the Bedsit.

I'm watching BB5 right now after recently watching BB7 from start to finish (I'd seen the first half of BB7 several times but always struggled to finish the last few weeks and wanted to get some closure at last) and I was really looking forward to watching BB5 properly after only watching the first 20 or so episodes on youtube a few years ago, but I actually do feel that it is a bit overrated. It was probably amazing when it first aired but I think some of the later seasons like 6, 7 (I know it gets very boring at points but so does BB5 and I'm only about 4 weeks into it...) and even arguably 9 were more entertaining.
I'm up to Vanessa's eviction and I think part of why I've struggled to maintain interest is that 28 episodes in, this was the first 'real' eviction of the series. Obviously Kitten was thrown out and there was the fake Emma/Michelle eviction, but I found myself desperately wanting someone to be evicted just so that it might change things up a bit. Does it get better from here? Hopefully there'll be the regular evictions/nominations every week format from this point onward and I'll find it more gripping. I do really like some of the housemates (Victor, Shell, Ahmed especially) and there are some great moments but so many episodes I have really struggled to watch all the way through. Also I find Nadia not that likable and don't really get how she won, though I guess I could say the same for winners of other series. And Marco is ridiculously annoying, and not even in an entertaining way. I kind of want to finish this series but compared to BB6 (easily the best series ever imo) and BB7 it just doesn't grip me as much as I thought it would.
