[Saph]

Yes I am but at the same time I think having two CBBs every year made it overkill

[Morgan.]

I'm really guttted. It's something I e loved since I was little so to not have it on every year will be so sad. And I always wanted to be old enough to at least apply which I may not experience. It's not confirmed yet so I still have some hope, and I will still hope than another channel can pick it up and rebrand preferrably C4 or NETFLIX).

And you know what they say, it's not over until Gemma Collins sings.

As much as I've enjoyed this series and would like the show to keep going I can't say I'd be too disappointed about losing it. I'm probably somewhere in the middle.

Tbh I'd be sadder about the forum dying (not that it definitely would but I reckon it's likely).

Probs Love Island staying on itv2 and BB moving to itv4 is more likely tbh

[Gusto Brunt]

the idea of bb on itv4 hurts

[LeatherTrumpet]

THe fact that Love Island is popular says it all

Love Island is sh1t - no i mean its real sh1t

[Maxxie.]

If they axe it THIS year than maybe channel 4 might be the one to acknowledge it’s 20th somehow!

[JerseyWins]

I have a show for you all.

[joeysteele]

Of course I am.

Because I still believe it to be a good project.
When allowed to progress naturally each series as if we were really just looking in on a house filled with people of mixed backgrounds.

Set tasks are fine with the noms process and then the public ruling over who stays and who goes.

What spoils things is whoever produces it,allowing it to become near staged,then for said production team to manipulate noms and evictions.

It is still a good idea,it's sad if it's to end,I hope some other channel may look at taking it on.

Even with still around a million viewers,that's a fair base still to build on in the right way.
If it goes from channel 5,then that leaves a big hole for them I would say to fill.

[Lostie!]

Nah, I rarely watch a series to the end nowadays anyway.

[LukeB]

Nah,i still have BBCAN

[Robodog]

CBB is always worth a watch.

Last year's civilian was one of the worst ever.

But overall - BB is still the best show on TV. Pure people-watching pleasure. Nothing comes close.

Other shows like Love Island or Celebrity get me out of here have too much interference from presenters and production: BB just sticks 18 people in a house 24/7 and leaves it at that. It's pure.

BUT changes need to be made in order to keep it alive and CH5 have done a sh4t job. Especially with civilian. Last year's was awful.

So what can be done?

Basically have more intelligent people in there. That#s what is so fresh about this year's CBB. Yes it may be slower and not have the thrill of major rows but a slow burning show full of natural, human moments is what makes the show.

Other high-octane, reality shows all seem so contrived and shallow next to BB

If it goes - it will be a really sad loss.

[Captain.Remy]

Is this official or wishful thinking from OP?

[Jack_]

Eh, I'm a bit ambivalent at the moment. Maybe if and when it's official I'll feel differently, but when I woke up to the news of the first axe in 2009 I was devastated. Not so today.

If anything I'll be more sad about the fact C5 didn't allow it to at least reach its 20th series...little things like that kind annoy me, but then that it just typical of their appalling channel so. If it is axed again I don't even expect there to be a proper goodbye either (like another UBB), if the contract isn't being negotiated until the autumn (as some of the articles have implied) then it might end up being a case of 'oh yeah the last series was the last sorry bye the house is being demolished tomorrow'

Whenever it's axed again I think it'll sink in more the following year, we never ended up having a calendar year off after it finished on C4. It's just become so routine now that it'll be weird to finally not have it on.
