I think it was because on the face of it, they were doing things more familiar to the BB brand, Emma was Davina 2, live shows improved, editing well it had been worse, and the housemate selection was fairly decent. But in terms of the actual riggage to the format/tampering with noms it was definitely getting worse.

Tbh yeah

The hype came from Brian being axed along with the return of live feed and good advertising

Imo any BB series is only as good as it's Housemates, they can have the best tasks of all time but if the Housemates stink then you've got a terrible year on your hands.

Imo I'd have 14 Housemates and here is my profile of them to see what you think of them.

Men:
1. A Muslim male in his mid 40's who plays on every negative stereotype that is associated with the Islamic Religion.

2. A Retail worker in his early 20's who is really geeky and into his Video Games, Movies, and Comic Books, but also can be a social chameleon and manipulate people to his will.

3. A man in his mid 20's who is really into his Heavy Metal (even down to the way that he dresses) and is unemployed and thinks that working is for "losers" and basically just has a terrible attitude.

4. A man in his late 50's who works as a Teacher at a High School, he hates slackers and believes that everyone should be working as a team to achieve their goals.

5. A camp gay guy in his early 20's similar to Marco from BB5.

6. A guy in his early 30's who works in an Office and has a wife and kids, basically just a normal everyday guy.

7. An 18 year old who is incredibly Sporty and loves to exercise and play competitions.

Women:
1. A woman in her mid 20's who is a BNP supporter.

2. A Muslim woman in her mid 30's who goes away from the stereotypes of an Islamic woman and is instead feisty and incredibly loud to the point of irritating her fellow Housemates.

3. A Girl in her early 20's who just wants to Showmance with a guy, basically the year's dullard.

4. A woman in her early 40's who is an extreme animal rights activist.

5. A woman in her late 20's who works as a Waitress at a Restaurant.

6. A woman in her mid 60's who is a die hard Christian and doesn't accept opposing views.

7. An 18 year old Goth girl who likes to tell Horror stories to people.

Yeah it's a ****ed up BB, but that's how BB is supposed to be.

Going on BB would probably be a career killer for a teacher

It was for poor Penny back in 2001 so it most definitely would be now.

[Strictly Jake]

I'm not sure back to basics would even work anymore but a few elements need to return as a nod to it

Agreed, honestly I think they should stick with how it was done with CBB21 in January, which was by and large a mix of CH4 & 5 styles. The only thing they'd need to change back from that season, would be showing the best bits after the exit-interview instead of before.

Still Baffles me to this day how 14 is the highest rated CH5 series when 13 was clearly superior in every way

Not really. And Caroline is the biggest C U N T ever (after Helen of course).

Hope it’s true this time.
