Default What changes would you make to Big Brother if you were the producer?

Just for fun, in an ideal world where budget wasn't a problem, what changes would you see happen?

Mine:
  • A year long break for the show. We've had at least 2 series a year since 2000. A break could do some good.
  • 1 month long CBB in Winter and 3 month long BB in the summer, as ever
  • No music montages ever, and tbh generally no tacky campness.
  • New house, studio and a large crowd stage built from the ground up somewhere rural.
  • Evictions to be a proper rave.
  • The show to (actually) go back to its social experimental routes.
  • An aggressive ad campaign highlighting the sinister, scary side of being in Big Brother, like the early years. No lying about changes being made but then nothing actually being changed.
  • Big Brother himself being a cold, authoritative, intimidating figure, ala this. Not some happy go lucky person.
  • Intelligent, unique cast with diversity.
  • Go back to Channel 4 (if I'm to really push the "ideal world" idea. XD)
  • 24/7 live feed via red button with camera angle options.
  • One consistent, new eye logo that doesn't change every year (loads will disagree, I know )

Less food, more alcohol. Fighting allowed.

Agree with everything you have to say except maybe the new stage and for sure the eye thing. Why would you only want one eye? Thats one of the main reasons I love bb. I like each series to feel like a unique character.

1. Remove all tacky color designs from the exterior. Removing the eye, the stands, the runway lights and the stage.

2. Axe the TOWIE style editing and the Top 40 music.

3. Cancel Bit On the Side.

4. Fire the live show directors who love their crane shows and dollies.

5. Bring back the suitcase and car entries.

Cast people of substance, not scum. It's a long format, three month program. No need to cast such two dimensional people.

Stop intervening in every little thing. They'd probably have to move it to a country that values freedom of speech and freedom of conscience.

I prefer the idea of one consistent brand identity, even though the eyes use the same template, I'd prefer one perfect eye throughout, same for the opening titles.

No one under 30 allowed to enter the house.
Make it look like the first BB and stick to the original rules from the start.
No making it up as they go along.
Follow through on rule breaking.
No re entering the house when you leave it.
Walkers get no exposure period.
No silly montage & music rubbish.
No exposure to large toothed fairies on bots.

16 normal people you you dont need glamour models to get slappers or hot girls ,

no celeb bb after the normal one so quick that is pure madness and commercial suicide
harsher punishments

more single people - two many mentioning bf's gf's in this one already it limits their actions

3 votes for housemates- 2 is easy 3 would be hard and really shake up who goes up each week

no contact with the outside world at all in any way no people in or out

axe bbots and its presenters - bring back little brother with new presenters

normal highlight show then live eviction show not the trimmed mess they are dong now

more mind game tasks not pointless ones. - the best tasks are the ones that reveal who they are not whether can they climb a rope etc lol

make emma present it in the nude lol - thats my personal pervy choice lol
