[BIG-BRO-FAN]

Which are you looking forward to most?

The Celeb Series (August)
The Normal Series (September onwards)


Definitely September on for me, not a massive fan of Celeb BB's but I'll watch anyway. I'll like watching the normal series more.

[Josy]

I prefer the normal series so I'm more looking forward to that but I watch the celeb one too.

[Patrick]

Add a poll or this thread has HIV.

[_Seth]

Normal BB.

Celeb BB can **** itself, even though I'm still gonna watch it religiously.

[Daniel McIver]

I prefer normal bb but i do like cbb and will watch it!

[Patrick]

Good lad - I will vote and give my important opinion after Waterloo Road.

[Shaun]

Am liking the idea of BB at a different time of year so mostly the normal series - have traditionally preferred the celebrity versions but with Channel 5 I'm pretty nonchalant about the potential.

[LemonJam]

Neither. I think it'll flop SO hard it'll be embarrassing.

[Patrick]

I have returned.

Yes well I'm 100% against Celebrity Big Brother.
I find it dull, I think it's boring and the only person they have ever gotten in the house that's been 'well known' amongst the younger relevant future generation of BB viewers - is Jonas Alterberg last year.

Other than that it's just 50 Year old Hollywood Actors that no one over here knows, year after year.

Big Brother belongs to Summer, I cannot stress enough how much the idea of bringing BB back for some big comeback - and then having CBB be the thing to kick that off, repulses me.

The Daily Star and just about everything else that's mentioned BB, have been hyping up 'Big Brother 12's Return!'.

Okay maybe not Big Brother 12, that's what the fans call it - but the media have certainly been ignoring or oblivious to the fact a CBB8 series is even beginning, If I didn't visit TiBB and was just the typical person who seen a newspaper front page, I'd think Big Brother not Celebrity Big Brother was coming on in Summer.


The worst part is the house will be all decorated for celebrities, not Big Brother.

The eye will most likely be the exact same logo used for CBB8 as for BB12, just like UBB and BB11 had the same eye.

Infact, I wouldn't be surprised if CBB9 in January uses the same logo aswell - lazy bastards.

And probably the worst part of all;
Celebrity Big Brother 8's 'Big Finale' will completely and utterly over shadow the return of the country's best Reality TV Show because they will conclude and launch on the same night - everyone will be tuning in to see some Footballer's Wife win CBB8 and not to celebrate the return of Big Brother, like it should be.

That my friends, is a disgrace.

[BB IS ALIVE]

Most people want "normal" bb to go back to its summer slot straight away. But this is channel 5!!! It will most likely be the biggest show ever on their channel and quality aside, more people have tended to watch cbb than the public one in recent years.......

And quite frankly i dont think the BB franchise could survive for another 2 years on c5 without cbb.....

1) Returned? From where?

2) Ironic considering Jonas was one of the very few housemates last year who I didn't know. I was familiar with his song when it was played but didn't know who the heck he was.

3) 50 Year Old Hollywood actors? Um, Endemol wishes that more like.

4) BB will return to summer next year. But, I agree, cramming all the series in at the end of the year is a bad idea.

5) The media have been pretty oblivious to the show since BB8. And it's only gotten worse to the point where even the Daily Star and The Sun barely mentioned it last year.

And the general public don't really care anymore.

Big Brother has now cut down to its very core audience (3-4 million) and will probably drop down to channel 5's highest audiences (1-2 million).

Even the biggest BB fans won't be able to stomach 4 series within 12 months.

We'll be able to spot hardcore BB fans after next year on the street. Just look for a jaundiced looking person who hasn't seen daylight for a year.

[Mac Hiavellian]

Both tbh. I want to see what the house, eye, format, celebs, tasks, twists and everything is like for CBB and then compare it to the regular one.

[andybigbro]

I am looking forward to Normal Big Brother more. Its far more entertaining, on for longer and just better in all.

[bigdhathaway]

i just wish that they would use the whole house and garden this year coz compared to other world wide houses ours is the smallest i have seen except the serbain BB house. id like our house to be like BB australia in size.

keep our own ideas and house designers and not rip off other countries.

[CharlieO]

Im looking forward to both. But fundamentally the normal BB because i want to see the route endemol will have gone down in regards to housemate picking.

I feel the exact same, im looking forward to both, but really excited about watching the normal BB.

[Jords]

Normal >>>

But I do enjoy the short celeb BB

[BringItOn]

Normal, I don't think I've ever watched a full celeb series.

[Niamh.]

Eventhough I prefer the normal series I'm looking forward to the celeb series more this year just because it will be the unveiling of C5 taking over BB

[joeysteele]

Both, but I near always enjoy the normal series more.

[the_last_remaining_fan]

What Niamh said.

When did you start watching BB and which CBBs have you seen some of?

Agree with all of the above, but I don't agree with the comment about Jonas Altberg. Alex Reid was very well known at the time

But yeah I agree with most of what you say anyway

That's the worst part, it should be the normal BB unveiling C5 taking over BB! It's a shame really, but still soooooooo excited!

Normal BB s**ts all over celeb bb
