It’s just not working is it

C4/c5 era Big Brother is a different show to what we have now

I think the main problem is that for C4/C5 Big Brother was their golden egg

They coveted it and it was the biggest show in their calendar. That meant it was thrown shed loads of money, promoted and really taken care of production wise

ITV are treating this like a run of the mill MAFS/Geordie Shore crap fest

The format isn’t being given the respect it deserves

That shows in so many ways.

Incompetent presenters. They had Rylan right their! I’ll never understand this decision. It alienated so many fans

The fact that we didn’t get a specially built house also makes out like they don’t care. Not only that but that house space we do get never changes! The house in C4/C5 era changed shape all the time, moving bedrooms and bathrooms and walls around.
They don’t want to spend money on it at all

The reduced run time and later start date just aren’t working either. It feels less like an event and more like filler tv for the schedule when it’s a bit quiet

The lack of a public vote through phone and text also cuts off a lot of fans because the system they have now doesn’t work for a lot of older fans so it alienates them

ITV Big Brother is not Big Brother to me.

I’ve tried to look past the shortcomings but just feel like long term fans and older fans aren’t being considered anymore

C4/c5 era always respected the shows format and history but I don’t think anyone before 2023 has been mentioned or seen.
