I did like the budget cuts task though, that was pretty clever (although I wish it had left the nominations alone).



I like tasks that create a divide, it really shows peoples characters. The quarantine one was okay as well.

I think the problem with tasks (and this was also true of BB12) is that the tasks are designed mechanically, not thematically.

So rather than when tasks were based on a theme like Cops N Robbers, Pirates, Army, or Jail, they are based on a mechanic, like a giant remote control, or a countdown buzzer, or a machine filled with white balls. While this allows the producers to use unrelated mini-tasks during these tasks, it makes the whole thing seem a little incoherent and makes it forgettable to the viewer.

One task theme I don't think has been done yet it Festival theme, I don't think any country has had that task.
