I like the way things are going now. After years of watching the format it's refreshing (for me) to have that change because in the past it became all too predictable. Not that I'm saying predictable is a bad thing.

What makes it work better for me is that the housemates no longer know when things are happening. I found it tiresome when they were second guessing what was happening.

It's such a psychological rush and with BB changing things around the housemates become even more confused/paranoid.

I think it has to be viewed as an entertainment show, and you like it or you don't. I've been pretty close to throwing things at the TV even with that philosophy, if I still had expectations of old BB, my TV would already have gone out the window.

Some of the things still niggle away at me, but for the most I just take what's thrown.

I know they've changed quite a bit over the last few years, but the original concept still holds the show together, in that I still view it as a human experience. Throw in a mixed bunch of people and watch how they interact with each other.

Last Friday's 4 out 4 in was brilliant because you could see the strain it put on them. They thought they were safe for another week and wham! The game was ripped from under their feet.


I love how they are approaching this coming fake eviction. All too often the housemates would guess a secret room was happening because it was at least two people getting evicted together. I can't see them second guessing one housemate to go into a secret room and I doubt they will be thinking ex-housemates will be watching on from a secret room.
