Because it wouldn't be on Channel 5

Don't know babes, just repeating a rumour I've heard. Amazon or Hulu or something like that if I had to guess.

Axing the show a year before the 20th with a non-All Stars series that goes out on a whimper is exactly the kind of **** I expect C5 to pull

Ideally it makes the 20th and then ends, but if the plan is to finish next year it should be All Stars

[Samm]

issy as the last civilian winner would be cute and channy winning all stars the following year oh wig

[Marsh.]

End it now tbh. 18 is an even number.

So is 20!

It's had it's day I think ,the cast gets worse every year and this years was dire, so they need to get rid of it or completely revamp it with everyday civilians as it was supposed to be,plenty of Towie type programs for those who want to watch that sort of thing.

But that means two more years of this crud.

(Not to mention CBB 24 ).

It would make sense and be satisfying if it ended on 20

Make summer 2019 a 10 week all stars with celeb and civilians and get rid of summer CBB that year
BB19 can just be a normal series

gross @ CBB

But that's true I guess I've put up with it for this long that two more years just to reach the milestone wouldn't hurt

Well ACTUALLY! my ideal plan would be for BB19 to trial the US format (with some tweaks), if it works great if it doesn't oh well...then make BB20 All Stars (with VTS) and then end it

2 Years or 2 civilian years, they should have done an upstairs v down stairs theme last year. 2 identical houses one up stairs one downstairs both the mirror opposites that have to compete instead of the others. 32 housemates, 16 on each floor, 2 get evicted each friday, no backdoors just doubles and triples. The game would have changed the eye would have worked stiil and sending one person from one floor to another as the houses would be mirrored would be funny to watch and physiologically confusing for them. Maybe do another first and have 2 winners.They should have put normal anon people in this year all different cultures and different walks of life.. Thats what they said they were gonna do. Instead we got half of the ex on the beach lot!

Oooh now this sounds bloody good.

I maintain it could be a fairly sucessful show if it went back to basics, and with NORMAL people rather than a bunch of semi-famous nobodies and people with agents.

I think even like 800k is decent for channel 5 anyway though?

And in a time when the TV is saturated with reality TV, having it go back to basics with normal people would really make it stand out from the crowd again.

Let Love Island do what they're doing and BB get back to doing what it did best.

"It's been 20 years and and everything has a shelf life" I truly believe she loves big brother and wants to see it last until 2020......20 years of big brother.

That's true and I believe the original cast should be brought back.......**** there were some crazy housemates

Whats the issue though? Cant they not do this cia the big brother section of channel 5's website? They would get more media attention from the press instantly. The live stream was a massive hit with the press during C4 days.

[Jodie.]

I mean it would be cute if it ran for 20 years

But if it ends next year then I guess it symbolises that BB lasted longer on the better channel? (not for me, but for most other BB fans)

Yeah I was gonna say I think I'm one of the only ones who actually wants it to be axed.

I'd rather it be axed now than it be run even further into the ground past the point of it even being able to return to a good viewing figure in the future after a lengthy break.

And by 'break' I mean C5 cancelling it and it getting picked up by a different channel (ITV/ITV2 or C4 preferably) in a decades time or so.

Having it on until 2020 is a horrendous thought
If they've not made changes or listened now, they're not going to in the future. The format's reputation is already on its last legs.
