Tbh it all started with CBB19. 13, 15 & 17 were huge and January CBB’s were the jewel in the crown, but then they started messing about with half all stars and then all women. They should’ve did these twists in the lesser important summer CBB. CBB22 was pretty much a classic January series, and if that had been CBB19 then I think things would be very different

CBB19 would've had exceptional ratings if it aired in 2016. All-stars was a highly requested theme of the show. It was only after the hugely negative and deserving backlash against CBB18 that many gave the January CBB after a pass

Yeah but the all stars were **** and they literally had jasmine waltz, austin armacost, stacy francis and brandon block in the same series, 4 of the least known cbb housemates ever who were joined by speidi & nicola mclean, also unknown to most non-BB viewers in the UK.

Not exactly appealing for the british public, especially since half were american as well which may have not been so bad if the americans were actually known

I know that civilian is the reason the show was made but no one can tell me those messy January CBBs didn’t have at least 3 more years to give. CBB17 is still talked about all over the world



RIP BB, it was fun while it lasted but they should of kept January CBB

I actually really liked that Celeb series and this last one as well ..

Best two series for years imho

I don’t agree tbh. In terms of quality I think 2018 was actually the best year Channel 5 had with Big Brother.
The rot set in for BB with Helen winning and then with Bear in CBB

2012 is the best actually. It Had the Best C5 Civilian series, Arguably the best CBB Winter Series and a Great Summer CBB.

2018 had a Terrible and Dull Winter CBB, Followed by a Fantastic Summer CBB, Before ending with an Above Average Civilian series

All of that is your opinion. 2018 has had consistently great tasks, great production and the feeling that they were actually trying.

So did every 2012 series The only major issue was the horrific editing.

Oaker pretty much said what i was gonna say. Also it's not just my opinion on 2012 being the best, it's the General Consensus of the Forum. Most People believe 2012 is the best and Strongest year for C5 BB/CBB.

Although Fair Enough if 2018 is Your Favourite

I flat out dont like 14, garbage.

17 was ok, but massively overrated.

13 and 18 were great, but had too many awful housemates.

19 was just refreshing, I liked most of them and looked forward to watching every night.

[Elliot]

Did 2018 have a housemate nearly as good as....

[Samm]

9, 13 and 17 whew classics

[elliebrew]

Januarys series was fantastic.

One of the best CBBs for many many years

Im not here for screaming and shouting im here for mature conversation, legitimate relationships and friendships and good intelligent debate

January was an amazing series.

[elliebrew]

Best ever c5 series are

CBB9, BB13, CBB21, BB19, CBB22

[Jigs]

yeah the January series was truly awful and the BB4 of Celebrity Big Brother.

Ann was a great housemate but she squandered a lot of the opportunities for both fun and arguments by shutting everything down immediately, and because her personality was so overpowering it really did ruin the series so I'm conflicted on how to feel about her.

Courtney was a lovely presence in the house and on "Courtney nights" I instinctively felt more excitable watching the show. I enjoyed Shane J's friendship with Malika but although I found the whole dynamic with Andrew captivating at first, it eventually rubbed me the wrong way.

India and Rachel were great housemates who should've stayed longer, but were chosen to leave over the likes of Jonny and John Barnes, which I don't for the life of me understand.

basically, this season could've been good but it went wrong at every turn

I enjoy both formats equally .

Just wish they'd refrain from sticking all the weirdos and wannabes ( Hussain ) ..

Nah it died years before that, we just kept trying to revive a corpse.

Wasn’t it a collaborative idea between Endemol and Channel 5 though? They had all that women’s suffrage programming and didn’t some of the cast thank C5 after they came out for sticking to their word?

The rot set in a long time ago (largely due to overexposure), I honestly don’t think upon reflection anything was saving the show this year. Ben Frow has been publicly slagging it off for almost two years and making ridiculous demands that were obviously and thankfully not going to be met, so he pulled the plug.

Channel 5 got what they wanted from this show. A staple that they could churn out over and over again whilst building their audience, milk the whole thing dry and then toss it to the curb like a pile of ****. A diabolical network

If cbb21 was just a normal series with all 16 going in launch night than it might have not rated too bad.
