It's nowhere near as bad as people say imo.

There were great tasks, aggressive arguments, etc.

I have not got up to Charley leaving but I am really enjoying it. And honestly I am not one of those BB fans who only love the bitches. I can't stand Charley so I probally will never get board of the series.

The Twins are adorable and Brian is hilarious. Also Johnathan was brillant, shame he had to leave. His thoughts were blunt and spot on.

The first four weeks are amazing, and after that it gets a little worse each week. After Day 66's double eviction it's absolute sh*t and pretty difficult to watch. This series had a great cast, but every single week the best of the nominees was evicted, so the last four weeks we were left with the most boring people. This series also had the worst winner in history.

ETA: It's definitely worth watching. Days 1-66 are Big Brother at its best.

Worst winner??? He was one of the only likeable people in that house that wasn't a fame ***** just there for publicity. He actually loved BB. He was also entertaining and did things in the house unlike stay Ms. Racheal Rice.

He exaggerated his stupidity to be entertaining and endearing to the public. He knew full well who Shakespeare was and his over-the-top expressions of cluelessness he employed whenever he didn't understand something were unbelievably forced and transparent. I remember on BBLB they had one of his teachers on the phone and they said that Shakespeare was an unavoidable part of the curriculum. Anyway, even if he were being genuine, I don't find stupidity endearing, but more pathetic. He also flipped out like a toddler whenever Charley had an argument and made himself look like a d*ck, yet everyone seemed to be fine with this. And as if his 77 days on BB weren't bad enough, he's always on the spin-offs.

I do agree that Rachel Rice was horrible, but at least she faded back into obscurity after BB.

I guess so man. Its just that when the house if filled with bitches and wannabes I take any piece of kindness and likeabilty I can get.

I think I may be one of the only people on here who doesn't like appauling arrogant human beings because they are "entertaining." And I think thats why I enjoyed B11 more than others. Sure I love a good war every BB but a nice happy house full of good people is also fine if they are also entertaining (ie funny.) Nikki Gramme is my one exception. I guess its because her tirades were never laced with malice or arrogance.

I don't support appalling people, but I love my bitches. There's a huge difference between people who speak their mind and don't shy away from arguments (e.g. Charley) and someone who is just a nasty, malicious person (e.g. Alex BB9).

charley and chanelle were 2 of the most entertaining hosemates ever imo, even if chanelle was nicky 2.0

[SharkAttack]

It was my first BBUK experience and I cherished every moment of it. Hooked me in from the start. I even miss Carole, although not really.

[Firewire]

It wasn't terrible. It wasn't bad. It's worth watching. The housemates weren't great but it had some good tasks.

[Valdora]

I have just got to the "drop off" point in many peoples minds and am still enjoying it. I enjoy peaceful houses too, especially after so much drama.

I think the reason it got a bad rep is down to it following the three best series ever. Watching it now and comparing it to the last few years makes it look SO much better. I forgot what BB was like when there was litterally something kicking off almost every episode (I'll give Charley some props there at least.) It also followed the infamous CBB and when people saw Big Brother going so PC it turned them off. Should Emily have been ejected? No. But it didn't ruin the whole series.

In my opinion this was a good series. Just not AS good as the 5,6,7 era.

I still enjoyed it after Charley's eviction until Day 66. After that it was agonizingly dull.

The last few weeks watchin Liam trying to milk the public for that extra 100K was quite agonizing. "She's like an oonion...you peel off a layer and there's another layer..., she just keeps giving bock." Or something like that.

This will answer you....

I loved the old microphone sashes they used to wear. Reminded me of an old postal service. "Delivery from Mr. Ziggy, this is for you Ms. Chanelle." "Oh, thank you, Zig, it reads 'please don't walk, I need you.' Aw, how sweet! But I'm still walkin". ~This is Big Brother, will Zach please put on his microphone.~ "FFS!"

Charley

[lahaine]

Worse BB ever!!

the fakery of Chiggy and Bello left a bad taste in the mouth.

Too many replacements and it just dragged on and on and on.

Charley was great (the only star of the show)

Those god awful twins sucked too.

Underrated is BB4
