Default What do you miss about BB on C4?

I don't feel like Big Brother is like it used to be on C4. Like when i watch the old adverts it doesn't feel the same as the new ones

Things you miss?
- Davina
- Eye
- Vote to EVICT
- Live Feed.. I know i said it's pointless but i've come to realise that it's a bit boring without it. I remember watching it during Ultimate Big Brother on E4 when i had no Internet. I loved it. But i don't mind that it's gone
- Channel 4 itself.. I miss the channel.(I have no reason to watch it now.)


You?

A sense of realism.
Still attached to original concept.
Was still somewhat harsh.
Mind ****ed people.
Live feed.

- Live Feed.
- Davina.
- "Best Bits" not "House Highlights".

That's mainly it.

1) Live Feed - well, I don't miss it, but it would be nice just to look at it every now and then during tasks and whatnot. That's one of the things I don't like with the new Big Brother, instead of showing a whole task because they don't have time, they'll show half of a task and then Marcus will tell us what happened in the other half. I prefer seeing the whole thing!

2) Eye - I don't mind the new eye but I much preferred how it was done on C4 with the actual eye designs, not just a purple oval like we have now. I really hope they don't continue using the same eye each series now, one of my favourite things about the run up to a new series was seeing the new eye. It'll be rubbish if that excitement has gone now. Plus i'll get pretty bored of that eye after seeing it too much!

3) Website - the website for this year's Big Brother is horrible, I hate it. It was great on C4 but now it's just... ew.

4) Davina - when Davina shouted "are we excited?!" I would sit at home and be all like "hell yeah I am!" but when Brian says it I feel no excitement. His little salute thing he does at the beginning of each show is just cringey and I hate how he's so clearly reading off an autocue when telling jokes so it's not funny at all. I don't mind his interviews though.

5. No music when housemates are evicted (I know that started with BB11 but for the other 10 series' there wasn't any)
6. Old editing/no housemate idents on highlight shows

Obviously live feed on E4 and even more the red button 24 hour live feed on freeview BB6, but also miss seeing those little launch night video clips of housemates up for eviction shown during the C4 adverts. Don't know if they still do that on C5 adverts?

Also I miss the eye designs, and those super cool quick countdown days to launch during the adverts. The excitement of seeing what the new house will look like for BB first CBB getting the second hand house after christmas.

The new housemates walking in the house on launch night without twenty questions from Brian spoiling the suprise.

- Big Brother's Little Brother (especially the Friday and Sunday ones)
- The whole *big event* atmosphere the show had
- 24/7 Live Feed via the Red Button
- The eye
- The more stylish graphics and everything it had
- Best Bits being Best Bits and only having one song that fitted in with them nicely, rather than a montage of loads of pop songs
- Davina (miles better than Brian )
- The million and one different spinoffs it used to have (DR Uncut, Big Mouth, etc.) that made it feel more special
- The website with everything you needed all in one place, rather than being redirected to their Facebook page
- Normal, natural-feeling highlight shows, that weren't edited to death and covered in nametags to make it like The Only Way Is Essex
- Marcus being a proper robotic monotone narrator that said about 5 things during the HL shows rather than making non-stop pointless sarcastic comments throughout the entire duration

Why the hell do you want Vote to Evict back? How silly.


I miss:

The Live Feed
The Eye
George Lamb
Davina
The Good Houses
The Non-Excessive use of Celebrity Big Brother
The hype that it had coming up to launch shows
When Marcus Bentley wasn't a character
The onscreen graphics being more than Blue or Purple clouds flying past on loop
Housemates having Best Bits and not a Music Video when they leave
Not having silly editing
Proper twists
The Channel 4 Font lol
The Series ending with best bits and not a bunch of clips to a Pixie Lott song
Proper Diary Room Chairs, even if BB10 and BB11's were horrific
