Absolutely not. BB12, 15, 16 were worse and that's only from the C5 era.
15 had a much worse cast, terribly obvious manipulation, the worst winner, and 16 was just is bad with so much outside contact, no flow to the series, terrible manipulation again and unnecessary twists. 12 was just bad... this series has been entertaining, dramatic, has quite a few people I really like and hasn't been heavily manipulated, there's no 'producer favourite' and nothing has been unnecessary (since the celeb guests)

16 felt like a self-destruct season. they didn't really know what they were doing most of the time. it's probably the only series i didn't watch fully but i rate it better over 15 because of the cast and the first two weeks.

I actually rate the cast of BB16 over BB15 it wasn't as bad as people make out though it had the awful moment where Helen called Brian a rapist....slightly odd.

I completely agree. It felt like 4 separate shows. Before 4in4out, after it with the newbies, then time warp week with Helen, and then after that nearing the end. It was all confusing and not easy to get in to.
It's a shame, because I still think that theme has so much more potential.

BB16's cast was kinda bland and forgettable in hindsight? Like I found myself rooting for more people in BB15's last few weeks than I did BB16's.

The finalists in BB16 were TERRIBLE. I absolutely loved Chloe, one of my favourite winners, but the rest were the worst. Nick and Joel were alright, but Jack, Danny & Cristian

The rest are trash (from c5).

Nothing can be as bad as BB12.

I think it's been pretty good, actually. Middle of the road in general, but enjoyable.

BB17 > BB14 > BB13 > BB18 > BB15 > BB16 > BB12

Hard to say its the worst, but it certainly is the worst produced. Its got so confusing and seems to be growing cancers all over the place at rates the producers cant control. They lost the series from day one woith the separate bedrooms. This forcefully created a divide and drama that went far beyond the level they anticipated and it resulted in the loss of some great characters.

To say its the worst, is harsh, but it certainly isnt one of note. It will be regarded as the most out of control series to date and if these idiots in control get another series, i will be surprised.

I've been an avid watcher of BB since the first ever but this one I switched off last week, just not enjoyed this series one bit. I'm quite disappointed because I was really looking forward to it.

Honestly. I find the cast to be too likeable. I haven't had so many people i wouldn't mind winning in forever. And there are a few who have the potential to become all time faves.

They haven't been meddling much as well apart from this Void thing, but there's one task every series like that and I guess this is BB18's.

Somehow I think it will be a bit boring the last few weeks, but that's ok, the first 3,5 weeks were one of the best.

Am I alone on this or is anyone else not enjoying this BB as much as normal?
bb15 was worse but i thought that was a fluke - this year has been dire. I watched love island on catch up and now im watching bb this morning and my word - I ve realised this program is designed for 15 year olds.

"sam fancies Ellie" Marcus just said - I mean thats so childish - in love island they d just say something more adult. when you think about un acceptable behaviour - well everything in BB seems to be unacceptable thats entertaining and why? there were massive fights in c4 days and no one was offended - I dont want to use the term snowflake.

This year has been for 15 year olds and its been lost on adults. Ellie is thick. and it looks like she is going to win with that fake grin and fake laugh.

all the good hm's were lost too early
