Yes, shame we can't watch it live but I don't want to keep going on about that all the time and it frees up more social time.

Me too Stu, but after watching lastnight show, im really getting into it now, i just wish they would scrap the music during the HL's, its really off putting.

[BBfanUSA]

I like the editing but the names aren't really needed for anyone but Jedward and the first few days of the regular series ( I don't mind showing the names but it's a little unnesseary)

[Jack_]

If they ditch the music at the start of the show and let us actually watch them wake up, and stop masking and ruining tasks and parties with music, then I'll be happy. It'd be nice if Marcus and BB also returned to their usual selves but I can deal with that. Also ditch the name tags, first night it's a good idea...after that, no.

I agree with Stu though, I really wish we had live feed. Then the editing wouldn't matter.

['Conor]

loved it since Launch

[Valdora]

I am yes. It seems they started with something...it didn't take so slowly it's started to phase out.

Completly agree about the tasks though. If you are going to do it, at least show us more of the tasks and use good music like c4 did last year.

[Marcus.]

I am love it love it it is very good

[RichardG]

Yeah, I don't mind it at all, I think everyone is overreacting just a little. The music can get a bit annoying sometimes but it doesn't bother me as a whole. I'd love live feed but I understand we're not getting it so I can't complain about it all day every day, but yeah - i'm happy with it.

Just because you do not understand something doesn't make it invalid. All different types of people used to watch BB for different reasons so its not surprising that not everyone who liked the old series' likes this one.

Yes, but you have some people who are all like

OMGZ they are putting nametags on the screen. THIS IS RUINING THE SHOW TOTALLY!!!!!


As if the nametags make that much of a difference

Yeah, they can be irritating, but making out as if they are a really massive problem is just daft.

I guess that can be annoying in some peoples opinion but to be honest it can affect people more than others. Like for me the name tags take away from the illusion of reality for me and are sort of damaging the reasons why I fell in love with BB to begin with. And obviously its not just them but its them paired with the effects, music, ect. But the thing is when people say they are overreacting its a matter of opinion to wether they think its an overreaction or not so I don't see how it can be judged as different people watch/ed BB for different reasons.

For example I watched it as a way to escape but I feel I cant escape with this series as it used to feel like watching a house but this series it feels more like a tv show. So the name tags may feel as a big deal to me because it doesn't allow me to escape as I used to but for someone else who didn't watch it for those reasons won't see it as a big deal.

You can explain it away as much as you like, but the fact remains, people who say the nametags totally ruin the whole show, are exaggerating

(The editing, I can get away with, because it does kinda stop it being a reality tv show. I am talking mostly about the people who moan about every little thing)

[BJ]

I enjoyed last night's highlights show much more but can't say I've warmed to it yet. Just haven't seen enough of them to get hooked yet.

[james130]

Yeahh it's definately grown on me.

[Legend killer]

No not really only watching for Paddy

Same ****e diifferent day sadly

[Vicky.]

Have a look round for people who make nothing but negative comments, in pretty much every thread, about every tiny little detail. Theres quite a few

Well I don't think that means they are necessarily moaning for the sake of moaning. I know I haven't made many positive comments about this series but that is genuinely because I can't find many positives about it for me. I certainly don't moan for the sake of it though.

It kinda does. Because if it was really as bad as they were making out it is, they would turn off. Normal people would anyways, the rest who wont switch something off that they hate, clearly just like to moan.

Kinda reminds me of the ofcom brigade that I hated so much...the ones who would watch just to find something to report, and report every little detail

I could understand that being the case if we were 3/4 weeks in, but even if someone hates the series so far giving up after 4 days seems a bit rash to me, especially if they have watched from the start and loved the show for 10 years. Though if someone complains through out the whole run of the CBB and BB12 I think then the accusation would be justified.

Yeah, but the thing is though, its little things that people are moaning about. Things like the editing, marcus bentley, the music etc etc.

These things arent going to change throughout the series. And are probably even going to be the same in normal BB too. Its c5s style.

If it was the housemates they were complaining about, I could take your point.

[Tom4784]

It's fine I guess, I watch it when i'm not doing anything and I enjoy it. It's better then I thought it would be.

Some people just like to complain, I don't see the point of continuing to watch something you hate.
