Can't find a live link, sorry.

[Miss Ivy Balls]

I can't watch it .

I'm on dial up and it is too slow to play any videos.

I watched one series on E4 and thought it was brilliant.

Edit:

HEres one link, its season 20. And this one is an all star, so pretty good!

Cheers for the link! Ill make sure to watch a couple and let y'know what I think.

And no worries Jonathan, quirkydude it is!
Edit: Or not, thanks Wildcat.

[MrGaryy]

I like to download personally via direct links, can't be doing with torrents, so unnecessarily messy and lengthy.

Dislike Enzo atm but as history goes, the early alliances always flop, ala The Mrs Robinson alliance [possibly the lamest alliance EVER lmao] and Brian's gazillion alliances in BB10.

Aww, Brian, If he hadn't tried to play the game so hard so fast in week one, he might of had a chance of winning, he seemed clued up on the game just got stuck in a web really. I'd love Brian back for another season.
Simular case is Allison in allstars.

Yes, Kail epic falied with her S8 alliance lol

I wouldn't watch Heroes vs Villains to begin with as you won't know the players as they're from past seasons and it's basically the Russel show part 2.

Although you can watch it on Youtube I'm sure there is a user on there that has uploaded their 'opening night'

ffs, you say this in every thread and is the only one who thinks this.

[Tom4784]

I might give it a go, I missed the first week but I generally got the jist of what's been happening.

[nathan_2009]

i prefer the usa version because they actually have to strategize and stuff, i watch it on youtube (quirkydude) and i want britney to win Lol!!

[BBGermany]

I very Stupidly turn the channel cbs. the US version shouldnt be called Big Brother.

They did the first series and it failed epically, so they created a new format and now it's ratings gold.

The traditional rules worked out so well for them didn't it? Ratings fell so much when the public voted out the interesting people, they tried to get one of the boring people to leave with bate money in $50,000 to replace with a opinionated bitch but noone would leave and ratings continued to fall which is why they brought on Alison Grodner who made the new rules (HOH, POV) and its generally been more successful (Bar S9 here).
I'm glad US don't follow the Traditional rules, Public voting always gets rid of the great ones early on and your left with uninspiring bores.
The Only Big Brother i follow now is the US version and If i had to choose between our version which i don't like whatsoever anymore or the US version, US version would win HANDS DOWN.

[BBGermany]

I wasnt saying that the traditional rules worked real well for them for the first series. It was a new show everywhere back then & only the states dropped the traditional rules after one go @ it. I think if cbs gave it another go for series two it might have picked up a bit. But I guess they didnt want to chance @ a another flop. So now instead of cbs complaining about the shows hm...boredom alot of the viewers are. If you look over on the official cbs forums youd see what Im talking about. Im not to thrilled about the uk version right now and havent been for the past few series. Which is why Ive tuned into Germany. The main problem I have with the US version is that the 3 shows a week are edited so much that you cant have a proper opinion about most of the HMs unless you either watch the live feed or after dark. About it being "Ratings gold" I really wouldnt know the past series cause I gave up watching it after the 2nd one. & started back up last year. I do know that if a repetitive game show (Wipeout) can beat Big Brother in the ratings on Eviction nights then something must be wrong

I can't see past episode 7, I think Quirky has stopped uploading. D;

Love Survivor

You can watch episodes on youtube, and most seasons are available in HQ - even ones from 2001.

Thanks for the link, will they upload the new episodes to the series starting soon as they are shown? Will give this a go.

Yes they are very quick at uploading episodes, they are usually up just hours after being shown on air, same with The Amazing Race.

Can't wait for Nicaragua

Oh great!

Ill try watching the latest series before the new one begins.

I wouldn't watch Heroes Vs Villains (S20) or any All-Star version before watching a normal season first. It'll be harder to get into and they empathise more on the returning castaways.

I didnt realise that was the Heroes Vs Villians series, do you recommend a particular one?

Erm.... S7, 10, 15 and 17 were particularly good, good picks for first timers.

[Jords]

Ill go with one of them then - cheers!

Definitely watch Heros vs Villains because IMO it's one of the best seasons ever.

Season 18 is also one of my favorites. It's Survivor: Tocantins.

I'd say these are the best:

Season 2, Australian Outback
Season 6, The Amazon
Season 10, Palau
Season 11, Guatemala (because the location was very cool. it was right on a like mayan temple)
Season 15, China
Season 16, Micronesia
Survivor 18, Tocantins
Survivor 20, Heros vs Villains

Samoa is also an interesting season because of Russell.

I would avoid Fiji and Vanuatu as those are the two most boring seasons. But besides those two, all seasons are good.
