I don't think the finalists should ever outnumber the evictions until the last few weeks at least. Like, make reaching the final more of an achievement. Also, less finalists would mean a less rushed finale.

It's one of those little things that doesn't seem to be an issue with most, but it really irks me.

I agree with more than 4 being unneccessary. I don't mind 5 finalists, though. I think 4/5 is the perfect number. But, I hate 6 finalists in the final, like CBB4, BB7, CBB5, BB8, CBB12, CBB13, BB15, CBB14, and BB16 have had. Especially the last few years on C5 have been 6 finalists (since Emma took over, really), with CBB15 being an exception and only having 5.

I also can't comprehend when they do have a 6 way final, and they evict 6th and 5th place together I think the only 6 way finals that worked well were CBB4, BB7, and CBB13.
