I would like to have a longer HLs show each night (nothing much else on CH5 so wont affect scheduling )

more alcohol and less PC bullsh**, just let them argue as much as they like, only eject for physical violence, clear physical threats (memba a told ya ) and direct offensive insults

either face to face nominations similar to BB11s bucket of sh** over the head type
or no nominations, instead have each week a vote to save

bring back the prison and make BB bad ass again, though punishments for rule breaks or from failed tasks

make the tasks a lot more challenging and make the rewards greater (ie alcohol )

just show the best HLs from each day, we don't need a storyline, its not Eastenders or Corrie is it, its BB

thats it for now - what you all want to see?

[Chilltown]

Allow discussion of nominations!

[smartalec2718]

Lots of alcohol.
Better, crueler, more demanding tasks.
Nominations to evict, but vote to save every week.
Expanded live feed.

There's more but I can't think off the top of my head.

Make tasks mean something...200 pounds if the fail ???? should be 50 and remove all the beds and replace with cots camp beds or just a sleeping bag.
But treat them great if they pass.
Remember bb3 rich and poor side...more arguments happened in the heaven side then the hell side.
Some of the best foootage comes from drink nights.
Don't allow 10 thousand moaners ruin the program...if 3 million watch the program it's 0.03% so tell them to **** off and watch fat club or rare diseases that look good naked on ch4
I believe they should also split the house to compete in food tasks more and make head of house part of the game again...but hoh gets luxury and own room like bb usa.
They should keep save and replace...but hoh replaces...its worked 10 years on bb usa why change it

[danda012]

More alchol
Ban all moaners from watching (They ruined the show from that CBB series onwards)
BB5 style Big Brother. (meaning evil Big Brother )
Make public votes to save rather than evict

just a few things off top of my head.

[eye sea]

* No sending housemates back in after they've been voted out

* No producer favourites kept in, even though they're hated on the outside.

* No messages or news from the outside world

* Face to face nominations

* If you ask to leave, you will be booted out straight away.

* Bans on fake romances

* No save and replace

* Allow the viewing public to nominate as well.

Strongly agree with a lot of what you listed. The problem seems to be that bending, changing or disregarding these can earn a BB series the fast and easy views/votes.
As we have seen it looks like simply dropping all pretenses and making a 'Summer Teenage Rotating Snog Party' is what gets them the instant ratings,
but,
What I wish C5 considers is investing in long-term core-audience loyalty and builds back respect for this socio-psychological 'experiment', the Orwellian idea behind it,
and,
where it once again 'means something' to enter and compete and play and audiences can be said to 'trust' what they are seeing and consequently invest deeper for longer.

New HMs coming and going may score big thrills but then what the hell is the point of calling it Big Brother at some point?

It may score instant highlight ratings to see how housemates react to the pop star death but then why call it Big Brother at this point?

I guess producers look at it this way:
- if they create 'summer pool party showmance' they DO get many teens and Jeremy Kyle types quick to look that night,
but,
My warning is that these people also need more and more 'cheap thrills' to keep watching,
and,
now the type who is watching FOR the very point of seeing the deeper intrigue of 'no outside contact' or seeing how they 'gel' with no new people.. this type STOPS viewing steadily over the seasons.

I dunno what the solution is. BB11 did seem to want it 'both ways' but that ended up hurting it.

But my advice to C5 is consider alternating (like CBB and BB do) but have a sort of CBB Teen orientated loose-rules showmance 18-24 year old orientated crapfest in winter,
then,
put together something really closer to the original serious, even frightening, more sophisticated subtle psychological 'thriller' during the Summer.

Maybe they should ditch 'normal' BB altogether and just run a Celebrity BB (an indoor version of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!).

Because all in all, I tend to enjoy the celeb ones much better. Lovin' UBB. Really got hissed off with BB11, especially towards the end with the likes of dreary Mario, Dave, Josie, etc...

Right but then just call it 'Indoor Celebrity Get Me out of Here' or call it 'Summer Snog Match House'.
I'm for that because then that audience can spend their time watching that and voting in that.

Then someone make a series called 'Big Brother' from Endemol. I want to watch that.

[Jayson]

Have both a normal highlights show on Five and an extended highlights show on Fiver that goes on for 2 hours.

Make it more strategic.

Vote to save.

Big ass house.

A GOOD twist on opening night like BBUSA do.

More housemates that are simply there to be *****s and manipulate people.

Only have the stunning Emma Willis to present BBLB.

Endurance tasks that go on all night to make the LF exciting.

And basically, just for Ch5 to get completely behind BB rather than trying to destroy it from the inside out like Ch4.

[Sabrewulf238]

There shouldn't be face to face nominations, because then they don't nominate who they really want. BB11's face to face noms were a shambles because everyone was too scared to vote who they wanted.

I'd love to see nominations done away with and every week all housemates are up and it's a vote to save. That way we'll actually have entertaining house mates in the Final. How can a suggestion like that be bad?

and eye sea, how exactly would they ban fakemances? Then they'd be getting upset because big brother isn't letting them be together and then bb would look like bullies.

[yousoboo!]

open nominations
