Default Worst first 3 days ever

I'm being optimistic for the next weeks but these first few days have really killed my initial enthusiasm for this series.

Both twists have really left me with a bad tacky feeling inside.

The housemates may be good but the production team are making terrible choices so far I really hope this series hasn't already peaked.

It feels like the producers are trying everything just to get viewers, it's all so contrived.

rant over

If you're not happy with the show. Why are you watching?

Your clearly wasting your time.

I never said the OP wasn't entitled to his opinion. But, the reasons listed have been present for years, and even less so this series.

I don't think what I said was wrong.
If you're not happy with the show you're watching, then watch something else that tailors to your needs.

Fair enough.

But the reasons he's stated for not enjoying it have been present for about 2 years now.

Your entitled to your opinion too, but as I said I like the housemates its just the twists that have killed it and if I hate it enough I will change the channel like I have done in the past.

The twists have hardly affected the house dynamics. Which is a positive, IMO.
I'd rather have an anti-climatic twist, like last nights as it means the house atmosphere stays the same as the first 3 days, which I have thoroughly enjoyed.

I quite like the housemates. Much more so than last years a lot (not difficult). But I still find the over-reliance on twists and lack of live coverage a huge hindrance to enjoying this show.

With everything being so immediate these days, and given what BB once was, they really have gone so far backwards it's pathetic.

Tonight's pointless twist aside, it's been the best start in years for me.

I agree with the OP, the show should be catering to it's fans and it's still failing to deliver.

I do like Joel, Nick, and Eileen though, and Cristian's a big character.

I think we can agree the twist was abit lack but It's because they bigged it up to be something really good when really it was a Ł27k car over Ł150k but maybe we shall start to see him crack so like the launch twist the worst things have best outcomes #abusedbysimongross But heh its been a great original beginning.

I thought Jack was the only one eligible to throw a tantrum after last night's twist and get out of proportion...
Jack's winning can influence alot on the dynamics in the house, and that's a far better outcome than Jack taking the car and leaving.

I think it's been a great start, I've personally really been enjoying it. Something I wouldn't have been saying at the beginning of BB15.

I think it's a great series so far. The ingredients are there for some very explosive things.

The task was abysmal 15 hms having to "endure" a whole hour of activities, and the maths bit at the end, addition for nursery school children
