I'd rather that than a series with constant mindless arguments or 'house rocking action' lol that has people I've got no interest in watching.

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts when you do and I 100% agree with you. I can't deal with this forced crap anymore, seriously, sending in the "people from their past" BS this year just took the biscuit for me. I think I'm finally done with it all :'(

You know how you think of a series and pin point moments you remember it was like 3 weeks it was fine, Jem popped up to slightly bring a big of life back and then it was pure **** after she quit.

I didn't like Aaron at all and still don't.

I agree

The highlight of the series was probably the week 2 Heaven v. Rebekah feud (with Heaven winning obviously). There were a few cute background characters like Alex and Tom but after Heaven left there wasn't really anyone to carry the series.

Unless you like Aaron, which I don't

[Jason.]

If you like Jason, you'll probably like Aaron.

BB12 is basically BB13 with a crap cast. They're more likable but boring.

[Daniel.]

Worst series ever. BB16 looks iconic in comparison

[Samm]

Honestly can't really remember it

You don't get infracted for supporting someone anyway even if you did (which you don't *terms & conditions apply) iirc most of us Mods were Aaron fans anyway

It was an abysmal series with the worst cast in the history of the show aside from a few that I genuinely believe was by more luck than judgment. The whole thing was focused on showmances (in fact the final week was nothing but) and it just all felt cheap and tacky. Plus it had Brian as a presenter and he'd only just started

[LeatherTrumpet]

er hello?

[Babayaro.]

I think I need to rewatch it tbh. I can't remember much about it

I know I was new and messy then and I remember scalping a few girls for supporting jay.

The only storyline I actually enjoyed was the Aaron/Faye/Jem complex because it was the only human thing that happened in a house populated with lame and fake tryhards, but even that storyline ended in the least satisfying way possible.

But yes, in spite of all of that I still vastly prefer BB12 to 15 and 16.

just call me forums poster the_truth (except now I'm not sure if I like BB12 or 15 more... or which one I dislike less, rather)

Lord Aaron

I had just started uni so I couldn't really say I wasn't distracted from watching as much as I usually would - we didn't bother getting a tv license either - but I did catch 2 or 3 weeks before I went off for freshers week and it just struck me as superficial, a huge lack of diversity and some of them absolutely revolted me. Marks sense of humour was cancerously awful, Jay and Aden made me want to change my gender and most of the women were utterly inconsequential. Had no interest in watching any more when I left home.

[andybigbro]

Looking back I don't think BB12 was bad. I actually liked it and preferred that there was t as much manipulation as there is now.

It's probably the most "back to basics" series that C5 have

[RileyH]

BB12 is so underrated tbh

But it was boring without Maisy, Heaven, Tashie and Jem

[RileyH]

Aaron is okay I guess

[MTVN]

It was a young cast but I don't think it was that TOWIE like really. The girls more so but even then you had people like Rebekah, Jem and Heaven who didn't fit that stereotype. BB12 was probably the series I got most into because like other people have said it did all feel very 'real'. When there were rivalries and fall outs they were natural and not the result of manipulation or housemates deliberately going ott for the cameras. I think the BB12 housemates were some of the most impacted by the whole experience of it as well, I remember Aaron saying that loads of the housemates really struggled after it and that four of them attempted suicide because of the impact it had on their life. Whether that's true or not I'm not sure but the fact that Alex said quite recently that BB ruined her life supports it a bit. Also the fact that apart from Louise and Jay I don't remember any of them trying to continue a career on television or in the public eye.
