There isn't a lot BBUK can do with the format. I don't understand why they continue to throw **** at the walls and see what sticks. They should go back to what made Big Brother the show it is. Simplicity is needed. Back the **** down with the constant twists we've seen a million times over

They keep trying to better the show but they need to realise they are ruining it and not of them really caree about the show well not really they don't

I agree tbh. I can't see the general viewing public taking too well to a complete overhaul of the show as extreme as that.

In the US they did it after one season, doing it after 16 years is a whole different matter.

Where with the bbusa format it would be civilian.. They should just keep the celebs format until summer cbb.

And with the US format it would barely be Big Brother anyway since it's so far removed from the basic format that Big Brother began as. BBUS is pretty much a completely separate entity that just happens to use the Big Brother title.

It's bad enough that they've already drained the show of so much of what makes it Big Brother in recent years with the nominations ridiculousness. I want them to fix that, not to just go even further away from being BBUK.

Yes it would still be big brother, the same things happen in every big brother people nominate and someone gets evicted but in different ways. The uk format right now is a disgrace and needs repairing but they will never go back to what it was. Bbusa format isn't going to harm a dead show anyway it will just be a better format.

It's really not!

The whole show is based on 'WHO GOES YOU DECIDE' taking away that right from the public after 16 years will see the show struggle to get 500k viewers and will be axed instantly majority of the BBUK fans love it for that reason and will not tolerate a change

If it's axed then that will be perfect

It does need to get axed tbf, It's dead and nothing can save it. BBUSA won't save it but I prefer that format than the UK one. I would be down if they copied BBCAN which is the best BB around the world imo because they know how to do a big brother season.. we just need their producers

People nominate and get eliminated in Hell's Kitchen, doesn't make it Big Brother.

If they want to change it up but still retain the bare bones of what makes it BBUK, they should adopt the AU voting format rather than the US one.

That's completly different.. They are not cut off from the outside world and gordan makes all the decisions.

That will still be crap though, that format will still get rid of the big characters even more. Take a look at Zoe.. She got evicted over a silly tesco comment... Thats how you know the uk format is horrible..

Right now bbuk is NOT big brother, it's towie/GS etc living in a house with loads of influence by producers and gets information from the outside world.

I can't take this seriously when you claim Zoe was a big character

I didn't actually say she WAS a big character it was an example of the PATHETIC things you can get evicted over

BBAU already exists so why would you want another?

There's nothing currently indicating BBAU is coming back so no, it doesn't exist as a currently ongoing show.

Another reason that comparison doesn't work is because becoming more like BBAU wouldn't be such a radical alteration to the format that adopting the BBUS format would, it wouldn't be much of a change from the basics of BBUK at all.

Not all. As I said, there are nomination votes. Gordon choosing who goes is just another difference in how they leave. That's my point, just saying "they nominate and get evicted but just in a different way" doesn't mean anything really.

A comment that insulted a whole group of people for how they make a living, people exaggerate how unfair the reaction to that was.

And I'm not sure of what point you're making. Are you saying the US format is immune to unjust evictions? Because I'd beg to differ there.

Yes, BBUK is crap right now. They should fix that and return it to what people loved about it in the first place, I don't see the need to change it even more.

And they get information from the outside in BBUS too.

But we're not going to agree so we'll just have to wait and see.

1.I've seen Gordan change things around and Hells Kitchen is not an social experiment which Big Brother is. So as I said it's a different type of show.

2.Clearly she didn't mean any harm and it's still not a reason to be evicted.. If someone was having a bad day and they called someone a **** they would get nominated and evicted over someone like Pav who offers nothing and is a pathetic excuse of a housemate. BB15.. Toya was evicted over Marlon and Ash because of her edit that week. Toya was a better housemate than those bores who did nothing but suck Helen's bum hole.

3. The don't get outside info much compared to BBUK which is against what they show is all about like celebs vs civilian is against what Cilvs bb is all about so theres' 0 point of having that format when we already have cbb in the winter and summer.
