Default Losing the will to watch

Just going through the motions now with this series.Watching with glazed eyes incase something good might possibly happen.Since the noobs came in i'm just finding it hard to care.Dislike all of them,They all seem fake as ****.Seems they've all gone in with an act to try and spice the series up and it's backfired.Quite liked Chanelle but she's boring now.Ellie is doing mi tits in,Sam makes me wanna put mi head in a blender.Yawn.

I think it's been really good since Joe left. There's a more positive vibe. No one is sat on that bench bitching anymore. Thank god for that

I'm recording, it's not enough to entice me to watch ads. Only night I watched live was Fight Night. I'm disappointed in Issy that she hasn't turned out to be an evil genius.

Im pretty close to giving up, I just don't really like anyone in the house apart from raph.

I've started watching an older series that is just so much more interesting to watch.

At the moment Sue is bringing the mood down, even though she had no power like Joe did.

After slogging through this for 8 weeks, it really does wear me out. And then they put on a CBB series. I'm thinking I'm not going to bother watching the CBB series as I need a break from the show. So this year, for the first time, I think I'll give CBB a miss. [From what I've seen of the list there's no one I'm interested in anyway. Mm, maybe I'm getting too old for all this !!]

Sometimes the series with the less known celebs is the best one.

Agreed, they're there to get more well known so will do anything for drama/attention which lets be honest is great TV.

I've actually enjoyed this series. Obviously there's been better, but there's been worse too. There's been a lot of natural drama this year rather than it being forced from opinion tasks.

Are so that's what they are doing - putting the known people in BB and the unknown in CBB. Now the C5 plan all makes sense !!

I agree

This is the worst BB since BB4. This year i don't care about any of them, i'm just watching out of habit, out of my 17yr loyalty to BB and 'in case something happens'.

This year's BB shows how much our culture has slipped downhill:
It's been all about :

1. Twerking and gross-out sex talk
2. Acting 'offended' and storming off rather than having an actual conversation
3. The crowd booing everyone with as much hatred as possible
4. Housemates making up awful songs that are weak on lyrics but strong on volume
5. Housemates with agents who 'want to be famous' without talent or any REASON to be famous. Just want to be famous for the sake of it.
6. Alcohol bringing out the worst of everyone. Tom in the DR. Ellie waking up in her puke. etc etc

Where are the interesting characters, the intelligent conversations, the adults?

It's like a drunken playground full of wannabes. Worse than ever before.

I'm actually really enjoying it. Bit nervous for the nomination twist. But what can we do? It is what it is.

yep all those reasons put me off BB so much


only one who could've been interesting with a completely different normal group is Charlotte, but with this group no wonder she talks about her own lady garden things


i feel so sorry for that girl who isn't selfish or immature

Not sure if it leads back to me just not liking this style format, or it's just this season, but after that fight night I've been incredibly bored with this. Just forced myself to catch up on a ton of episodes and it just wasn't enjoyable but I definitely want to finish it, mainly because I'm hopeful Raph takes the win.

I really can't find any HM this year that I want to get behind and support to win.. there just is not a single quality that makes me smile or that I find endearing.

The vile conversations (not that I am a prude it's just somethings you just don't/need want to hear and should be kept private)

More so than ever BB to me has joined the long list of progams share a house/island etc that drink swear hook up fight argue discuss topics that would make most people cringe it is becoming more like geordie shore/the valleys/ex on the beach etc which to me are an intolerable sign of the times where people of low morals do things on tv that would make their parents watching at home feel shame...

I wish they would stop putting in old cast members from these rancid tv shows and just get billy no mates etc off the street instead all shapes and sizes not all Barbie & Ken types.

This is the 1st year since BB1 that I gave up watching the show shortly after it began & havent caught up at all ..nor do I care who wins/looses/gets evicted... which is sad as it's always been a tradition of BB summer to 'debate' and yell at the tv over this show

..waiting on CBB....
