I have no words lol.

Where did I say that in my post?

Oh yes, I didn't.

[Doogle]

This would be such a good idea but the public wouldn't like it sadly

I'd be so here for it though, it'd be even more explosive. They would have NO idea if they were liked

You said you enjoyed when people like Sallie are evicted first.

That would mean you would prefer a character like Sam to stay would it not?

If Sallie and Sam were up for the chop and you had to evict one odds on you would evict Sallie.

I didn't even mention Sam so this is all assumption. For the record, no I didn't like him. But at the same time, in week 1 we didn't get a chance to see anyone else other than Sallie and Gina.

Getting rid of Sallie who only has the argumentative "are the cameras on me?" streak in her was great in my view and we had a chance to watch some of the others interact.

If you found her act entertaining then great, but I didn't. After 15 years, her act is old and tired.

Well after watching BBUSA6 the entertainers definitely stand more of a chance of lasting longer with this twist than without it.

I don't think that format would work if they couldn't discuss things

I mean they could always adopt a Survivor-esque format and just do a weekly immunity comp and then have every housemate cast a vote live on eviction night and then if there's a tie give the immunity holder the deciding vote. I'd prefer the US format but at least that'd be a bit more creative

That BB is a disgrace with all the twists they did to guide Jeda to the top 3.

Trust me if you hate showmances like I do avoid BBCAN as the producers aid them into the top 3.

The only one in that BB14 final that was still entertaining was Gina, Dexter was a shadow of his former self, and the other three aren't even worth mentioning.

Gina was boring by the end. Her snotty attitude act had worn very thin by the final.

I still liked Gina, the others in the final did not deserve to beat her at all and the fact that two of them did is really bad imo and shows that the public need to either learn from their mistakes or completely have their vote took away from them as they kill every Big Brother off by the time you get to week 8.

[Marsh.]

I don't really care who wins.

I can understand people wanting their favourites to be there until the end, or the entertaining ones to be there throughout the series.

But as for who actually takes the prize money home makes no difference to me. If I enjoyed the series, those last 5 minutes of someone winning isn't going to change the previous 3 months.

100% agree.

[Josy]

I would agree with Marsh and no it doesn't mean I like boring people to stay but constantly overly bitchy annoying people are HELLISH to watch and it all comes down to the same old argument, not everyone finds the same personalities or things entertaining.

But if you've watched a BB for 3 months wouldn't you want it to go to someone that actually did stuff? I know not to expect my favourites to always win but I would like someone that did stuff to come out as the winner and I don't get the public when they give the win to Housemates that have hardly featured in the series like your Rachel Rice's and Sam Evans.

[waterhog]

i think this is a brill idea.

The reason I vote on finale night is literally for the person who has entertained me all summer kind of a thank you lol.

Exactly, I know we all can't agree on who's the most entertaining but someone entertaining should win imo and I will never understand a lot of the winners that we have had on Big Brother over the years.

Not really because a) It's not my money they're getting and b) It makes no difference to the series.

The winner gets the last 30 seconds of the series with a few fireworks (or sparklers nowadays).

The eventual winner just means nothing to me. I can pick someone I'd like to win if it was my choice, but it's not something that bothers me whatsoever.

Like with Anthony in BB6 wouldn't have been my preference as the winner but it doesn't change that series one iota for me, it was still brilliant from start to finish.

Why does every thread about BB15 turn into a BB14 discussion

Well it's kind of a general discussion about winners/evictions not confined to BB14.

And it's all we have to discuss unless you have some news?

I loved BB6 as well but it still has that tainted feeling because none of the big guns won.

I like the idea of the public not voting, however I dont like the idea of the HMs choosing who goes

Then the other idea could be that you have two tasks to finish, say you have 16 Housemates the top 13 go through to next week on the first task, and for task 2 the one that does the worst gets evicted.

What do people think of this idea? Could it work?

Defo, the bottom 2 should be made to fight for their survival if the other housemates or the public aren't going to choose who leaves.
