Default Is this the most mediocre final 9 we've ever had?

My favourite I only mildly like and everyone else ranges from neutral to severe awfulness... it really is such a bland cast. Am I alone in thinking this is the worst final 9 we've been lumped with?

The problem is after 4out4in, Chloe and Danny saw the more controversial Hms like Harriet and Sarah evicted and decided to coast. Marc decided to stop this by being an obnoxious twunt.

The dregs of the overall cast sailed through and are what we're left with .... a bunch of awful depressing moaners.

It had potential earlier on too.

True, 11 were unbearable.

I loved Corin more than I'll ever like my fave left in this one though. I liked a few of the others too.

Hm, the only truly deserving ones still left are Marc, Joel, Jack, maybe Harry and Danny (never thought I'd say that) to an extent, but of those only Marc is in the same league as John James, Sam, Josie and Corin were in BB11, so I'd say it's probably worse to be honest.

I mean it's weird, I don't really hate any of them, and I like them, they're just overwhelmingly bland and in any other series most of them would fade completely into the background.

You know it's bad when ex-housemates deserve to win more than they do. Aisleyne and Brian have totally surpassed their first appearances as far as I'm concerned.

The overall cast was neutral and the ones left are neutral. they're honestly so boring that i cant even have any strong feelings towards them.

then again of BB14's last nine I only liked Charlie (and that was on the same level I like both Sam/Chloe) so I'd say 14's was worse too. 15 wasn't too bad since it had Chris/Christopher/Ashleigh, so I'd say that was better than 16.

Oh and obviously I didn't like anyone in 12 so that would be pretty much worse. The final nine of BB8 must've been pretty awful too (unless it included Charley just scraping through? Because of the finalists I only liked Carole)

BB8 was everyone up to Gerry, so... yeah.

Yes this is the worst, there is no one to root for expect maybe Haz.

The problem with 4 in 4 out was that whoever left it would have caused problems for the series which is why the whole twist was the producers shooting themselves in the foot even before the series had started and its all kind of gone on from there in a big confusing mess

The BB13 line-up was awful - only Caroline and Chris were likeable.

Well the BB14 final 9 was over half the cast (Dan was in it) so I don't think that was much of a problem.

Well firstly neither of those were in the final 9 and secondly neither rank particularly highly on the list of great/likeable/both BB13 housemates

I get what you mean about the Legends. I would've loved to see Helen win again, but as an actual HM I'd like Marc to win.
