The rating will be high enough for Channel 5 to milk a few seasons out of it before killing it of forever. In hindsight I now wish it had been left a few years and 4 resurrected it in a serious manor. The only thing we can hope for now is a complete revamp for BB13, however it is very unlikely until this 'new' wave of shallow entertainment has died out.

But in my eyes true Big Brother is over. However hypocritical as it sounds I will still be watching but not for the reasons I watched Channel 4's version nor will I adore it in the same way.

I agree with the OP on all aspects other than the fact it will be cancelled. If it was I wouldn't care though.

But...the run of CBB8 is only scheduled to be 3 weeks, yes?

I lost track of how they are doing this but my understanding was this is supposed to be some kind of pre-season deal with the celebrity BB? Is there supposed to be some kind of break between series now? I'm honestly under the impression this just 'rolls into' the other somehow?
