Default I know it's hard, but...

...it has to be said Ch5's attempt to resurrect CBB leaves me stone cold, that's why I quit watching it as of Tuesday (did tune in for Friday's eviction but that merely confirmed my decision) Doesn't mean that I have to leave TiBB though, in spite of the hateful comments I seem to attract. However there is gradually less and less to read here and it appears that TiBB is suffering more than Ch5 from this disastrous season. I note that Ch5 bosses are "over the moon" well I and several others DON'T share their euphoria. Anyone who gets so upset at my comments can use the "Ignore" facility - no need to bleat about a "permaban"

What's the reason you're not watching? LF aside it's really not that bad.

Frankly, It is just so many disjointed clips put together by apprentice editors who seem to have been educated by MTV.

The inability to accept criticism is merely a side effect of immaturity.

Don't leave then, Just stop posting about, how crap you think it is, and how channel 5 have ruined it, because it is getting a bit tedious now.
Some people are really enjoying bb being back, and it IS a really good series with a really strong cast! Im not ranting, but it is somewhat depressing comming on here and constantly see people saying "I'm not watching anymore", Well fine, But we don't all need to hear it!, Keep quiet and don't ruin it for other people.

Hope this don't sound mean but it's how you're comming across

Frankly, it does sound a bit mean, see Post 8 above.

Ok Jarrod cut it out

Fingers if you are having hateful comments or people bleating on about a "permaban" (not sure what that's about), then use the report function

At the moment though they've got no reason to assume that it won't. They're probably celebrating in their offices at the moment over the ratings they've got the past week.

Just to clarify why I said that I think TiBB is suffering from Ch5's idea of "change of Direction" you only have to look at Page 1 on here - the last entry has been timed at 11.45pm YESTERDAY for hours!

EDIT at 16.03: finally a NEW topic has moved the 11.45 Thread to Page 2!

Theyve done a really good job but still lots of room for improvement... which they could act upon before the normal series.

I agree it can feel disjointed. And I'm not interested in Jedward exercising in the gym. I don't know if the banality of some of this is due to the HMs being boring (or not given enough to do) or whether it is just terrible editing selection, we can only guess this year of course.

Hmm you didnt watch the other HL's..one of your main errors..
Through this week the editing became pratically the same as C4. Bentley went back to just read the hours and the basic, the song over the clips disapeared and its only on in the first minute of the show when they wake up..

And the Story developed and became quite interesting...

Basically you missed what youre complaining was left behind

Your opinion, you are entitled to it, I still think it is a crappy imitation of the concept.
