Yeah sure the 'vile vs vile but entertaining' argument is very subjective so I'm not going to think it's unacceptable for people to favor BB7s first week the most or anything like that. But I will say it's weird how many seem to favor it yet Shahbaz's treatment I'd argue was even worse than what Shilpa got, and CBB5 is a very unpopular series that was out at the same time.

Well not really. Most people did not find Lesley, Maxwell or Saskia entertaining. They brought a lot sure but none of those people are popular. As for Makosi, Craig and Derek whom I also included, they had other traits apart from being nasty people that makes them groundbreaking and classic housemates to many people; they're not really defined as being spiteful.

(also Kemal and Science are usually seen as 10x more entertaining than the outright nasty people of BB6 with no other traits (Lesley, Saskia, Maxwell) and both are as popular as the nasty but entertaining housemates like Makosi, Craig and Derek, an opinion by many.)

BB6 could be very nasty at times, there's no denying that, but there's much more of a balance to it, and its consistently nasty people like Makosi, Craig and Derek have a lot of humour and personality chimed in that makes them stellar housemates. In Shahbaz's case all I can really take from it is feeling bad for someone who emotionally drained themselves; it's also objectively less comedic than BB6 since BB7s first week was mostly about Shahbaz's negative impact on the house and the house's negative impact on him.
