I would rather boring down to earth funny over OMG Im a grown man 26 who prefers to act my shoe size just so I can get attention.. pfft..

Being mean / Deceitful / Inconsiderate / Rude / Spiteful / Thoughtless / Manic / Argumentative / and so much worse doesn't make him a good HM..the greatest HM of all time Brian Dowling did not have to resort to anything like how Bear behaves to be crowned winner... so why should we reward some 2-bit nobody who think he is god's gift for being a dickhead to everyone around him?

Another brilliant post, Sue. Well said!

oooh yes... live feed ahh the good old days where I would loose days & weeks just watching them sleep.. @night just incase i missed anything..lol
that was always the best for catching up on HM's bitching about each other

I truly truly miss live feed.. it makes the show.. without that all we have are badly edited selective 1 hour show moments

This is exactly the problem, and it is so sad to see BB becoming that. It's only loyalty to a show I have loved for years that is keeping me watching.

As a result, if some of us do not enjoy what we are seeing, then it is the producers fault, but we have every right to express our dissatisfaction at what we perceive as a degeneration in quality of what was, once one of our favourite programmes.

In addition, the OP stated: "Anyone else FEEL like switching off', which conveys frustration at the said perceived descent in quality, but does NOT mean that the OP poster is switching off.

Exactly. Another great post

Me too.I thought it was going to be terrible with the nobody's who went in but it's turned out great.

They'll never bring back live feed, sadly, they like being able to forge a narrative.

I was one of the lucky few who caught the BB5 fight night from start to finish, live, lay in my bed watching my little 15" CRT telly . They missed almost all of it in the live show, and I've never seen full footage of it emerge anywhere! It went on for HOURS and was so much more intense than they made out on the main show... I have no idea how it went on for so long, aired live, uncensored before they sent in security ... Awesome night's telly, completely spontaneous. You won't get that again.

Some people just have more about them than others and a lot of it down to jealousy, Bear is wired to planet Bear and is probably like that on the outside, he just has more energy, more electrical connections that make his brain tick all of the time.

Some feel threatened by it, Aubrey, Saira, Ricky, Sam etc others are indifferent and the rest embrace it. Lewis, Chloe, Marnie even HD who at least understands it.


You also have the jealousy factor, the dull ones don't understand it, yes he's acting up at bit and pressing buttons but genuinely he's wired differently and ticks differently they feel threatened and upset that they are stars but are being shown up by his antics- in other words they have met a bigger and larger than life character and they don't know how to react other than to try and control and to try and adapt this person's behaviour so it doesn't steal their limelight, if only then can get him to tone down, change , be more like us BORING - then we may get a bit of camera time and attention.

Of course Bear is wired different! He's a sociopath! He clearly has no empathy for others. He has no conscience. If you ever meet one in real life, you'll know they're not that fun in the long run. Even if you're in their "gang", believe me, sociopaths who don't care can be really dreadful to people. I knew one when I was young, and she ended up shooting a friend of mine, which finally landed her in jail. The things I found about later just blew my mind!

I'm also basically making it background noise, while I browse the internet. If it sounds interesting, I might glance at it, but frankly, I can't stand the reality show stars. I can see maybe the x factor girls, as at least they are known for having some talent, but the others, yuck! I mean, that's not the kind of show I usually watch, and if CBB is going to turn into that kind of show, man, like, what a turnoff. They did this before with that dreadful Perez guy, and that Spencer, too. I mean, maybe CBB should consider leaving out the real nutters?

And here I am again, contemplating switching this off. Why should I bother when I'm not enjoying it? There's other things I could invest my time in.

It's only going to get worse.

Fell like they should rename it WH.RE TV

I remember it so clearly. It was still rolling when a load of security guys came in and started dragging them away, then for a few minutes it showed the garden from above but you could still hear the audio feed. Then the whole thing just cut off . I'm a sure I hit record (on my trusty VHS, of course) before I went to sleep because I was worried I'd miss something if the feed came back.
