Pros:
Good house.
Alright Hm's (but lacks diversity).
Theme tune. (though rendered pointless with the crap titles they gave us)
Emma Willis.
Introduced us to Derek and SC.

Cons:
The new Marcus.
Editing.
Titles.
Atmosphere.
No original concepts.
Abuse of the Big Brother name.
No live feed.
Breaking every rule which define BB.
No concept for the series.
Series being so obviously viewer and money driven.
No feeling of being immersed in the house.
Illusion of knowing housemates is lost.
The fact people prefer this to any C4 series.
Focus being on Jedward and Kerry. Clearly biased editing.
Music being played when hms don't hear music.
Fact they have iPods ect
Big Brother no longer being cold and robotic.
Jokes and sarcasm made by Marcus and BB voices.
Lack of intelligent people in the house.
No Vote to evict which never guaranteed popularity.
Putting in a man who can't speak English.

If I think of more cons I will add them.
The cons are all the things I loved C4BB for.

Pros

Big Brother's back
Great house
Nice stage set.
Emma Willis
I really like the eye now. It's grown on me
Vote to save.
The housemates
Big Brother's Bit on the Side
Derek Gibbons

Cons
They're not really celebrities. (As much as I like them as housemates, you can't call them celebrities)
The editing.
The Big Brother voice
The editing (Using all these graphics, housemates during transition, names on screen etc)
The use of music.
Lack of live feed
No Davina
Brian Dowling
Possible manipulation. Can't be sure of anything without LF

Apart from the Pregnant one displaying her bump, I agree but I'm sure there are many more cons!
