Default Channel 5 stigma?
Do you think the reason BB ratings aren't great is because of the 'Channel 5@ factor??

So then why did a year on the ratings plummet from C4?

People simply aren't interested in this series. Everybody knows what channel Big Brother's on and the fact that it's on a crappy channel doesn't stop people from watching it.

Yeah, but I personally don't like it. It's so watered down and it's nothing special. Then again, neither's this series.

Dunno why, but I find that post weirdly funny.

Look at BB10, BB11 officials. I'm not saying it is the main reason, just asking if it plays a factor.

We haven't even had the second highlight show yet. I'm not saying BB's been stellar so far, but give it a chance. Who knows? It could really pull a rabbit out of the hat.

Exactly, hopefully we get a Fight Night or Pantsgate and the ratings rocket.

Yeah, I think a lot of people just got bored with it and the viewership now mainly consists of the core fans like all of us on here and on DS, where as before it appealed to a much wider audience and it was picking up ratings of 5m+ per episode. We'll never see ratings like that again, no matter what channel it's on.
