How many times have you criticised the show now? If you don’t like it then don’t watch

I respect people’s opinions, but why do you criticise a show and write negative things about it - only then to watch it?

It's really saddening that they've tried to replicate Ex on the Beach for the past 3 years. They were the show that paved the way for that to be an inferior rip-off, and now they're chasing ratings.

Remove the likes of Lotan, Kieran, Rebecca, Ellie, Kayleigh and Tom and you'd actually have a solid, diverse cast, but no they went ahead with that "pairs auditioning" idea and couldn't let go of the chance to chuck another Stephanie/Jeremy at us. Even though 4 people care about Stephanie/Jeremy.

That said, I am enjoying everyone else. Charlotte, Deborah, Imran, Sukhvinder, Raph, Chanelle, even Joe are all relatively interesting characters. But of course half of those are doomed to have idiots going "ugh they're so boring " because they're given 20 seconds of airtime a night.

It's been too reliant on the same old Housemates from the very start.

Nobody is emerging like we've seen in other BB's.

And it's missing Arthur.

I enjoyed the first few episodes but it's tailed off a bit for me, due to the lack of likeable housemates and arguments taking up more or less 100% of the airtime (I do enjoy arguments but I would like to see some more personal conversations)

This is the first BB season i've watched in a couple years, and to my mind the worst i've ever seen. I don't feel any empathy towards any of the HMs, the conversations are pretty dull. And all the fights and arguments are way too overblown and over the top!

I always used to champion the concept of 'vote to save', now i'm wondering if it's actually worse. People who are nommed seem to go out of their way to create fake fights, desperate for airtime and attention.

The old 'vote to evict', had the 'flying under the radar' possibility..and quite often an interesting but controversial HM used to be evicted, but overall maybe it was better.

Either ways, the casting for this bunch was pretty lame!
