Default BB Back to its roots at last?
The new controller seems to be taking it to the opposite direction the previous one did.
For the better imo.

Could we be seeing perhaps the true rebirth of big bro. Whack in some live feed and all, the bb we once knew 10years ago could be back.

Seems to me Ben frow is wanting to attract more viewers. This is the way to do imo.

They were trying to make the show into something else.

Just being Big Brother should be good enough. Play to the format's strengths.

Not sure about taking it back to its roots, but Ben Frow definitely seems to be have his head screwed on more than Jeff Ford did

I think Ben Frow is going in the right direction, clearing up Jeff Ford's mistakes.

I hope it goes back to atleast the way it was in BB8 still not classic but a step forward. Ideally a social experiment series like 1-3 would be the best solution.

The news of all these changes are making me optimistic that the show might be watchable (pre-CBB7), but I'm used to being disappointed. =/

Are you serious?

Don't get your hopes up.
