Default HATE to admit it but I am really starting to love this. Very BB5
I'm reluctant to actually admit this

But I'm really really enjoying it so far.

It's such a crazy, uninhibited house

They're all intriguing

I can't take my eyes off it and I hate myself for it

But it's having serious BB5 vibes

I like that most of them want to have fun. Not all of them are likable, but they're great to watch. And best thing : the dullard Alex is gone to the Other House

Tonight gave me BB8 vibes with the house meeting and BB6 vibes at the end with the pool scene.

It's been great so far. I just want the Others to merge with the main house tbh.

I'm loving it too

And BB5's a good comparison, coming straight after the boring series and making big changes to the format etc

BB5 if it was re-enacted by bad actors.

A community theatre BB5 is still 100x better than the past two Channel 5 BBs though

It's definitely giving me BB5/BB6 vibes so far, this first week has been explosive. But it's still very early, last year BB16 started off amazingly (IMO) then went to utter **** after Aaron's ejection and 4in4out so I'm still cry weary of production ****ing things up but regardless this is a very solid and dramatic cast - I think the best overall since BB13.

Every episode has its moment where I'm not only shocked or appealed or both but where it's so surreal that I just can't stop laughing (Victoria being chased in the camera run, Hughies DR, the naked bathroom dancing) I'm glad I'm watching it and not in it.

Yes!!! I think that 90% of it is all created drama. This season has been really big disappointment. Gonna watch it, don't get me wrong. But hope that ratings will fall and producers realize how big mistake they have done.

I hope it doesn't lose some of the biggest characters early on like Natalie, Hughie, Jayne like they did last year.

Some of them are making the show, even if they're not very likable. I would prefer to get rid of the bores. Why people always want to get rid of the biggest characters? Then they complain that the show is boring

Exactly! Vote to evict frustrates me, it was okay back in the Channel 4 days but doesn't work with Channel 5. It just leaves us with Joel, Chloe, Cristian, Nick, Danny, Jack in the final. (Took me a while to even remember their names - that's how dull they were) Although I liked Joel.

It's as close to the BB5-7 vibe Channel 5 has ever gotten so for that reason, I'm enjoying it so far.

I just think if it's VTE it has to be a 1Vs1 eviction. I feel like evictions on Ch5 (bar BB13) have lost my interest as it's always so predictable who's going to leave in large groups, and there's no nervousness of our favourites going up like there used to be when there is like 5 or 6 people up for eviction.
