Default Worst first 3 days ever

I'm being optimistic for the next weeks but these first few days have really killed my initial enthusiasm for this series.

Both twists have really left me with a bad tacky feeling inside.

The housemates may be good but the production team are making terrible choices so far I really hope this series hasn't already peaked.

It feels like the producers are trying everything just to get viewers, it's all so contrived.

rant over

Tonight's pointless twist aside, it's been the best start in years for me.

If you're not happy with the show. Why are you watching?

Your clearly wasting your time.

I never said the OP wasn't entitled to his opinion. But, the reasons listed have been present for years, and even less so this series.

I don't think what I said was wrong.
If you're not happy with the show you're watching, then watch something else that tailors to your needs.

Fair enough.

But the reasons he's stated for not enjoying it have been present for about 2 years now.

I agree with the OP, the show should be catering to it's fans and it's still failing to deliver.

I do like Joel, Nick, and Eileen though, and Cristian's a big character.

I think we can agree the twist was abit lack but It's because they bigged it up to be something really good when really it was a £27k car over £150k but maybe we shall start to see him crack so like the launch twist the worst things have best outcomes #abusedbysimongross But heh its been a great original beginning.

I thought Jack was the only one eligible to throw a tantrum after last night's twist and get out of proportion...
Jack's winning can influence alot on the dynamics in the house, and that's a far better outcome than Jack taking the car and leaving.

I think it's been a great start, I've personally really been enjoying it. Something I wouldn't have been saying at the beginning of BB15.

I think it's a great series so far. The ingredients are there for some very explosive things.

The task was abysmal 15 hms having to "endure" a whole hour of activities, and the maths bit at the end, addition for nursery school children

I think it's been a great start.

I hope with this Jack thing though the edit stays balanced and fair. Worried there's going to be a pointless shift to the edit concentrating on Jack loads and ignoring the rest of the house.

I think it's got off to a great start a lot better than last years.

Last nights twist was TERRIBLE. And there is no way around that but I'm hoping it picks up soon and they stop doing constant twists.

Twists I personally do like but only about at the most 3-4 a series but I'm worried they'll be constant with the twists like they where on Power Trip.

Other than the twist last night both the highlights I personally think have been great they've not been focusing on certain housemates too much everyone's had equal air time there's none of the horrible montages at the beginning anymore and it's just beginning to feel like the old big brother.

My favourite start since BB9

These housemates are amazing

The entire series feels like channel 4 era classic

I'm liking that there's more humour and there's not really been any tension or arguments
