I don't like the vote to save or the vote to evict by the public, because as I said before people tend to vote out who they "don't like" at the expense of the entertainment of the show. I'd argue for not letting the public vote for anything regarding evictions. The whole premise of the show revolves around a number of housemates being isolated from everything but each other. To me, letting the public decide who stays or who goes betrays that premise by having an outside influence on the house.

You also tend to see people in there being fake and pandering to the public or acting like they don't care about winning in order to endear themselves to the public. If you take out the fear of the public from the game, you'll probably see more people acting truer to who they really are.

Need I point out that the most popular housemate of the current US Season (which I do not watch) was Britney and she didn't make the final either.
I don't see what that has to do with anything. She was my favorite as well, but she also had her chance to stay in the house and was beaten in competition. That and she was at fault for not recognizing an obvious alliance in the house that she could have worked on earlier in the game with others to take out. A lot of bonehead moves were made this season. To me, I don't honestly care who wins BBUS. For me, entertainment is my primary motivator for watching and doesn't hinge on seeing my favorite win. And even with Britney gone, Enzo is still a funny guy to watch as well as Lane. As entertaining as only 3 left in the house can realistically be.

As you said, you are American. I dont think you understand the British Demographic as well as you think.
What the British public wants and what the US public wants are 2 completely different things.

/unbiased Canadian.
I never claimed I completely understood the British demographic. I did live there for a few years though so I'm not completely ignorant lol.
