I think the presenter of the show should LIVE in the bb house. That way they could give us the real low down on what's going on first hand.

But she'd run out of shoes

Back to basics with a few twists > (and by a few twists I don't mean a secret house two weeks in, friends and family noms halfway through and a prize money twist right at the end)

I'd love back to basics but it can't happen because the target audience and audience expectations have changed.

I would want old school Big Brother with 16 normal people as housemates. Axe the trashy sideshows and have an extra hour of highlights instead. No contact with outside world, including during evictions. Hard tasks. Normal nominations and vote to evict always. Online live feed with option to choose which camera to view, pay a reasonable fee to watch (day pass, week pass, season pass etc)

For starters....

Sack the BB editing team and the BB twist team cos there the ones ruining the show.
Bring back live feed. No outside contact at all.
When BB housemates are on a basic shopping budget there should be no parties during that period. Bring back real people for housemates not fame hungry wannabeez who have been on every bloody tv show already and failed.

I went for bb14/15 esque. Because I do like a theme. But it needs to be done correctly. Secrets and lies and power trip, great themes, sadly neither lived up to their potential. Neither theme should influence nominations though. Nominations should always be done in the normal way, occasionally face to face, but that is it. Housemates should get to choose who they would personally evict, without anything or anyone to influence that, and we should get to choose who we want to SAVE! But if a theme done correctly could carry through the entire series and create entertaining drama, but still allowing housemates to be themselves and have fun. Then yes I would be there for that. Currently as it stands bb is influencing far too much

Back to basics please. Chickens roaming around outside, mini-blackboard and chalk for shopping tasks, and basic rations that actually are basic rations.

Time to put an end to the massive sense of entitlement that most HMs seem to have these days.

I'd like to see real punishments, instead of just losing the hot water for a few hours. A good example would be if anyone discusses nominations, they are nominated.

Back to basics with a new permanent basic for each series. That being the theme truth and lies. I think that would entertain every year as long as they don't corrupt the nomination format.

On balance I think vote to evict is best. Also there should never be less than 3 up for eviction. It would be good if the first eviction took place after two weeks rather than the one week now. Give them and us chance to judge the housemates.

I would also love for the first eviction to be a fake one.

They also need to address the gender problem of women being evicted out faster than the guys. When that happens and they are going to introduce new house mates they should not include a guy if there is already a shortage of women.

Big brother is always bad bad bad and boring when its gender imbalanced
