Absolutely dreadful launch

Terrible presenters

Terrible twist

Terrible housemates on the whole. Far too young

3 of the most intriguing characters are up for the chop

I’m so sad it’ was so bad

Agreed.

[andybigbro]

I agree sadly

[Benjamin]

Yep. One of the worst. Such a bloody shame.

[Withano]

We probably should’ve been asked to vote to save our fave from an evil eye tbf yeh

[vesavius]

It was... OK.

Not the disaster some are claiming but def not one that stands out.

[JoshBB]

I really wanted it to be good! I hope they can do something to kick it up a notch

[Mystic Mock]

I weren't a fan of the twist.

[BBDodge]

I like AJ & Will.

The twist was crap.

The right 3 are up.

But the rest aren't that great.

The thing is it was a twist that was recycled from timebomb

Imagine emulating one of the worst series. Such a bold and maverick approach that's demonstrative of only true genius.

I know, but the fact is they are trying to pap it off as something that has never been done before, honestly the ITV producers need to do their research

[madman411]

I switched off since I wasn’t feeling it. I’ll catch up with tomorrow’s highlights.

I must say, love ITV for bringing it back to our screens, but it’s obvious the amount of effort they’re putting into the franchise. It’s just so… mediocre at best, and that’s coming from someone who absolutely loved Big Brother during its original run and never missed an episode. I’m not sure who their targeted demographic is now or what they’re trying to do with it, but it needs a new set of producers (or the OG producing team - Paul Osborne, Phil Edgar-Jones) and new host to give it some TLC.

Optimistic it might turn around, but the launch was so lackluster it’s hard to believe this show is set to continue for the foreseeable future.

Great post, I totally agree

[Vanessa]

I enjoyed it. Quite a diverse bunch of housemates. Really want to know who left.

[Redway]

None of this is encouraging.

I turned off after seeing 9 housemates
I won’t be watching this series

[Crimson Dynamo]

I think she was on a panel on GB news once

[joeysteele]

I quite liked the launch.

On paper, it looks a good mix of housemates although I was only impressed a bit as to half of them.
However it's impossible to judge on that few moments of seeing them.

The twist spoiled the launch and not revealing who has gone was rather pathetic.
However it's great to have it on again.

at least give the hm's some time to settle in

I wont be making any snap judgements this time round

They are all over excited kids with no real life experience
It’s not what the viewers want it’s what the producers want

They might aswell use AI housemates

[GoldHeart]

I don't mind AJ & Will

But last year's launch was better.

And once again the age range in the housemates is disappointing, Caroline is the only token " oldie" ,and she's only 56 ? .

[Crimson Dynamo]

Due to poor attention spans of the Tiktok generation the launch is all about "and next is another bright shiny thing is.." and we dont get to linger on the people in the house and how they are reacting to each other.
