people can't wait to moan about it...every decent bb fan knows it takes about 4 weeks until people sort themselves out..the first few weeks are always slow, this one however has been pretty decent in comparison..How do you get this, "people are already bored" info from..!

Yes they do :

Quote:
VCR, DVDR, PVR playback and "catch-up" VOD services is reported if it takes place within 7 days of the original broadcast. This viewing (known as timeshift) is then added to the live data to produce the final, minute-by-minute consolidated audience, available 8 days after the original transmission date. Consolidated data is the ‘BARB Gold Standard’ that is used by the industry to report and trade on.

No I don't and I have admitted that several times but its because I can't, not because I have chosen not to. However my viewing of the show doesn't restrict me in anyway to comment about ratings. Ratings is the only thing important to Channel 5 so why can I not comment on them?

Same Launch
Same Housemates
Same Nominations
Same Evictions
Same Theme Tune
Same Eye Logo
Same Narrator
Same Overall Format

I didn't want to but i'm bored of people acting like this is some horrible show that is nothing like BB. When it has even less changes than BB11 did (which no one moaned about)

Before it launched people were saying it needed to change. Now they're crying because the producers made some minor changes.

You asked how this was BB other than in name, I listed reasons. Can't exactly look into that any deeper...

If you can list what is so majorly different then I may understand better?

Yes you can look deeper. As in conceptually, Orwellian and 1984.
There is no concept it is reality tv for the sake of reality tv. No direction, no concept.
