Default Tried getting into it

I watched all of the 2012 season and despite complaints many people have had (mainly to do with the fact its a family show unlike our Big Brother) about it I very much enjoyed it. It was ripping of the UK one big time but it actually had a budget and kept more the serious tone to it than the Channel 5 ones (aka the house wasn't blue and pink). HATED the fact that Ben won though, Entertaining or not I don't think bitchy self important people should be gratified. He and Stacy annoyed me the whole series.

So having enjoyed that I started to watch the 2004 series and although I am enjoying what I have seen...it's not enough. The shows are short and don't cover hardly anything that goes on. Without the feed the stuff just goes by too fast for me (maybe that's cause I'm used to the UK version.)

The 2006 and 2007 series are by far the best, they just had a good mix of people those years.

2004 isn't very good. BBAU is pretty hit or miss, but I'd suggest watching BB1, BB3, BB5, or BB8. The rest aren't worth the time.

7 and 8 were both good, decent casts (particularly 7). I thought the 2012 (series 9) became more watchable as it went on and the dead wood got evicted, but overall the previous 2 series had a better budget and cast.

Yeah, BB Aus can be very hit and miss. I quite liked last years one, but would have preferred Estelle to win.

I have started to watch the 2005 series and I love it! Soo much better than any I have seen thus far in that its much more like our version and has great moments and housemates throughout.

But good god I am begging for one original idea they haven't stole from us or the US version.

I think the white room was an original idea back in 2007. I'm not entirely sure though, they might have taken the idea from another country.
