It really is a no brainer. I didnt find the series too bad, i watched it but i just found it a bit dull at times.

the 'old' days were brilliant - and yes, the house divide, rich / poor, basic rations, hard task, having to skivvy for the 'rich' side etc: all based on winning tasks and getting on in their respective groups: that was at the heart of BB.

years down the line though - it's lost any real kick and oomph it did. It's now nothing more than a contrived watered down scripted version - and without live feed - it defeats the whole purpose of 'big brother is watching you'..... BB is meant to be the public.
