[Cynical]

I would say that the producers did an absolutely brilliant job of selecting the housemates. I was worried about them all being too young, but for me the absence of a father/mother figure has lead to far more potential trouble. I think going into week 4 i’d have said it was my favourite series of all time, but for some reason since then the producers have constantly felt the need to tinker with the format, add family members, mess with nominations and generally mess around. I also feel they have shown a lot of bias to certain housemates and that spoils a lot of the enjoyment.

I also think the public are to blame for the season getting progressively worse. For some reason, the vast majority of voters can’t see beyond the fact that big brother is a TV gameshow. People seem to be more interested in “getting housemates out” rather than “keeping them in”. Rebeckah, for example, was one of the best housemates big brother has ever seen. A complete bitch, but the drama she caused was absolutely gripping. If i was ever out and missed an episode, i would be sure to record it and watch it ASAP. Now, if i miss an episode i don’t even bother to look what’s happened. Surely the public should realise by now that housemates like her, Anton and Harry should be saved and kept in at all costs? I’ve posted before about how great i think a last 5 of Jay, Aaron, Anton, Harry and Rebeckah could have been.

It never seems right that someone like Louise can make it all the way to the final, but i guess that’s the nature of the show.
