That's just the number of episodes. BBUS only have three shows a week, unlike BBUK where it's daily. Their seasons are 13 weeks long nowadays.

Also I didn't realise bb was filmed at CBS studios ive actually been there. I don't like the fact it's all very enclosed whilst Bbuk has allways been outside personally I would love the original studio back with the bridge and huge crowds it had such an atmosphere.

The UK format has always been every night. Another reason a strategy-based show wouldn't work here. Imagine the complaints if Channel 5, or whoever, said they were only going to do 3 episodes a week.

I don't think there's any reason why a switch to the US format would mean you have to reduce the number of episodes too. Three episodes a week works in the US and Canada because they act as roundups of what's been happening on the integral part of the show - the live feeds, with each episode themed around one of the competitions/eviction.

In fact, keeping a daily show with a change of format would allow you to flesh the characters out more and mean that the entire show doesn't have to revolve around strategy, you could still show regular conversations just as much.

Here for it.

CH5 have ruined this show. This years normal BB was terrible to the point I stopped watching it. Something which has never happened. I would love to see another channel pick this up and hopefully refresh the format.
