Why aren't you open to the possibility of it adapting and changing to suit its current audience.

Simply forcing the same tired format on a new audience only serves to beat it into the ground further.
You're asking me why I'm not open to it adapting in a way that I wouldn't personally find enjoyable? I think your answer is right there.

It sounds like yourself and this "new audience" don't want Big Brother at all, you want a whole other show merely using it's name.

Yeah, and the "new audience" it's currently adapting to obviously don't want it either as the viewing figures disappear down the drain.

I want a format that allows storylines to play out naturally. Relationships to form naturally

Scrapping the threat of being nominated by having the entire house up liberates the housemates and allows stories to progress without Gameplay.

SURELY its the very basis of the BB experience and something you should be championing

Nominations doesn't hinder the natural progression of storylines, constant interference does. I want the show to go back to having a regular, consistent nomination format without the producers trying to out-twist themselves week after week.

If certain housemates decide to use their nominations on a strategic level, so be it. I don't see how that would be hindering story progression, a housemate playing a strategic game is a storyline itself.

The fundamental aspect of Big Brother is the social experiment, putting together different people and seeing what happens. Nominations (where we truly get to see how people are reacting to one another) is a big part of this. Stripping that aspect wouldn't be amplifying the core aspect of the BB experience, it would be draining from it.

I just want the series to play out naturally. Housemates nominate, public evict, and repeat. And if they feel the need to add a twist one week (because a completely twist-free BB is definitely too much to ask for now), so be it.

I understand what you're saying and why you feel that way, but it's not something I'd like. Although, your suggestion may actually be preferable to the current state of nominations.
