Default Why has this series gone downhill.

Personally my views dont count because BB dosent listen to them, if they did read the forums, they wouldnt condone that dipstick Jamie the gay producers quest to find himself a boyfriend. Even Emma, normally the voice of reason, has become very biased towards HM8,s like Becky. They seem to be making it up as they go along and this latest White room fiasco and 50k giveaway to 2 non hopers is at best ludicrous.

They must have known that luke s and conor would be the last 2 in there and one would take home the prize, so why give 2 seemingly non hopers that chance, their logic is way beyond me. In my eyes they are making themselves look stupid, they have diluted the final, they have opened themselves to outside critisism, they are going to loose viewers for next year and if that numpty Jamie the prod gets a job higher than sweeping up in the future, there is no justice in the world.

If there was someway we the viewers could show BB that they f..ked up with the White room givaway, it might go a long way to rescuing the final. Emma wanted to hear the reaction, how can we tell her.

The funny thing is White Room prize of £50K is better than winners £50k as
- its guaranteed if you take it
- you can be home with fam n loved ones
- you can watch Olympics
- you dont have to eat sh*t food
- you dont have to live with Miss BMI.

I just realised, the 50k walker gets BBOTS for a week which is more than the 5th, 4th, 3rd, and 2nd place get. Look at Jay last year, he barely got 10 mins of anything.

The fact that Conor wasnt thrown out for what he said about Deana, for me is the main reason why the shows gone down hill!

He got a warning, effectively a slap on the wrist, which Conor didnt really care about!. To make things worse hes in this white room with Luke S, with both having the chance of winning a free pass to the final and 50k!

If Conor wins this task, and takes the money BB would have sunk to new lows, even lower than where they have been in the past!

My view on BOTS is that they always show biase towards certain housemates,it was like this in the days of Big Brothers Little Brother, who can forget Dermots fascination with Glynn!.

Last year it was anyone but Aaron on BOTS, this year its Becky, and some of the others!.

All this thread proves is that no matter what happens in BB there are always going to be fans complaining about it. Whether the housemates are too boring, too bitchy, the twists are too stupid, the tasks are too boring. If you don't enjoy it, don't watch it? Just because you don't like a twist doesn't mean the worlds ending. Just because you place so much value if retaining that $100k prize doesn't mean all the other 1 million+ fans give two-****s about it.

Conor, Luke S and Becky are massively favoured by the show. It's really obvious! They want one of them to win.

I think the only thing you can do is make your feelings known on the BB Facebook page, here: https://www.facebook.com/BigBrotherUK

The page is full of viewers complaining about the twist.

Or maybe it was just a task they had planned all along?

If the outsiders had of managed to work with some of the floaters and got some of the insiders out it would have resulted it more outsider families voting and we'd have outsiders in the white room right now.

IMO nothing fishy about this task. Insiders have a majority. It makes sense that the insiders would end up the ones not up and would have the chance at the room.

I think they want Conor or Luke S to win. I don't think they were supposed to go in the white room, until they found a way to make it happen.

It was a fix, if three could go in then 3 should have... why say 4 and let them decide who didn't go in?
So conor went in obv..

Exactly. The 3 with the least F&F nom's were Scott, Sara and Luke S. Why did BB open it up to the least 4 THEN ask the hm's to decide on 3.

That's a hypotheticle question BTW. They opened it up to 4 hm's because they wanted Conor in the ****e Room.

I agree. Conor shouldn't have been in there.

Not sure the producers are bothered who wins. To them it is a show and their priority is revenue. When Conor did his tirade against Deana my complaints went not to the makers but to the sponsors.

It has always been a low brow show with a bunch of wannabes trying to jump on some bandwagon. Thankfully the days of instant fame are gone and once the show is over the HMs quickly fade back into the obscurity from which they originally emerged.

I used to enjoy observing the interactions of the contestants to see how their incarceration affected them. However, in recent years there has been too much manipulation of the audience by the editors. I will not be watching any more series and, since I only ever watch Channel 5 for BB, will have no need to ever tune in to this station.

No doubt next year many of those complaing now will still be tuning in and getting irate at the antics of the HMs and the editors. Good luck!
