Default BB14 could be the next BB7

just a thought, but

BB1 and BB8 were both okay, meh
BB2 and BB9 were both seen as better than the previous
BB3 and BB10 were both really good
BB4 and BB11 were both awful
BB5 and BB12 were both 'relaunches' of the show, even though BB12 was woeful
BB6 and BB13 were both amazing
BB7 was probably the best series, so BB14 could follow that pattern.

As much logic as there is in that, I'm pretty sure it's going to be down to chance as to whether we enjoy it or not. :P

BB5 was the best, not 7.

BB5/BB6/BB7 IMO were BB's glory years...

I have to say that BB6 and BB7 both owe their success to BB5's relaunch... And both the series were evolved out of seeds planted in the previous series...

I enjoyed BB7 a lot but look at it closely and one can see the cracks within the format forming... To be brutally honest there really wasn't much growth from the previous series... Unlike BB5 or BB6 which were both leaps and bounds ahead of the previous series... IMO BB7 is clearly the weakest of the three...

If I had to choose one series I'd like BB14 to be like I'd have to say BB5 as it set the tone for the series that followed... BB seems to be the most successful when idea's are built upon over time... The least successful 8, 9, and 10 series of the Channel 4 era were one-off and gimmicky... BB4 went "back to basics" after BB3 went outside the box and almost killed off the show... BB11 stands on it's own as neither good nor bad and the producers had nothing to loose... BB12 and BB13 are sort of a limbo but in terms of casting, BB13 built on the foundations Channel 5 set in BB12...

BB6 was my favorite, I wasn't a big fan of BB13 though.

I'm currently watching BB7 again on youtube, i'd love it if it could top that but it will be hard. We need a really bitchy house this year for that to happen!

Really still baffles me how over-rated BB7 is/was.

Indeed.

BB7 doesn't even come close to those two series.

Like honestly, Series 5, 6, 9 and even 13 - all give BB7 a run for it's money.

Agree with all of this - up until the part where you try to argue that BB11 was better than BB9/BB10.

BB11 started off amazingly, and then went to sh*t after the first week.
