Because the housemates get on so well, there obviously seems no point.

I think the show has gone dramatically downhill since Rachael left. There's no conflict any more and nothing to talk about. They're just too damn nice to each other. It really is like BB4 all over again.

And worst still is the Shabby/Caoimhe borefest. That was cringeworthy last night.

Dont watch it then if you dont like it, but you wont be able to see BB ever sagain if you give it a miss.

Also ratings dont agree with that its a "fail" its half a million up on BB10

I'm sorry theres no punching like there is in TRW, probably because that is mostly fake and staged.

boring or not, I say not, it wouldnt effect them offering odds on the winner.

Juvenile cheap shots aside, has anyone heard anything?

BB10 was left in a mess after BB9 but the viewing figures grew considerable by the end of the series. It will be the exact opposite for BB11.
The only reason you like this series is because you want it to be good, because its the last, so you have started to believe this **** is good.

LOL why would i pretend to like a series and waste my time with it?
Obviously im watching it because Im enjoying it, people who watch it and slate it IMO have too much time on their hands.

Well if they get new housemates in there fast then things might change around but I can't see it happening really
I just hope this series doesn't effect the All Star series.

They will get new HMs in there and alot of them too, PEJ said that before the show started and the reason I think he said there will be alot of newbies is because the shortlist still has 60 people on it.

I don't think BB11 will effect BBAS, I can see BBAS getting alot more ratings than BB11 actually.

But I just wish BBAllStars aired at least a week or so after BB11 that way the series could wrap up and end with the winner walking out, the BBLB reunion etc like a proper series.

Now it won't get that because we will jump straight from BB11 into BB All Stars.

They should have done votes to save at the start to get rid of some of the bores. As it is we know there's only a small group who can really survive the hate votes.
