Default Holy crap is this show boring
This show is a borefest since Marc left. None of these drones deserve to win. Is there an option to vote "none of the above" when picking the winner?

They must love the new focus on Harry's tantrums and Chloe's mild dramatics.

I watch Love Island and maybe BB if there's nothing else on. I'm sure people only watch it because we're so close to the end and they just want to know which dickhead wins.

hmmmm. What specifically were the improvements? The constant sitting around and patting each other on the back, or more focus on Harry and Nick's depressing relationship? Even the cash bombs, which should be really entertaining, were predictable and boring with this lot. The only good thing to come out of it was the evaporation of over half the prize pool. BB has to make the money back that they are losing in lower ratings and vote revenues now that Marc left.

Thats not true, the show has improved in the ratings since his eviction. Cba to discuss the rest, it's a difference in opinion, not a correct or incorrect answer (although your opinion is in the minority, mine isn't).

"Marc was the show" and "The show was complete ****" are definitely correlated :3

The series is still ****, but it's greatly improved since Marc has left because every Housemate is getting focus instead of it just being “The Marc Show” and they're actually doing a week long task which is refreshing to see.

More focused on the tasks?

Tasks have always been an integral part of the show along with the shopping list (which has sadly been abolished) but they was too busy in this series giving Marc silly one day tasks that nobody else was getting a chance to standout.

So your final answer is tasks and shopping lists ?

Well at least you understood the question unlike the other guy.

Well not just those things, I would also bring Live Feed back and cast more diverse contestants as that's what got BB it's name in the first place.

And with the Marc's of the series so that the public doesn't get fed up of them, I would actually not show them in some highlights so it's not overkill and overly relying on just one Housemate.

Marc was not my worst contestant in this series, but his constant presence in almost every segment of every highlight show killed it for me.

Now I understand why Marc and Joel get so frustrated.

It IS crap. Marc was the huge highlight of this season for me. I don't even care who wins at this point, but as you said no one is deserving.
