Default When did you start watching Big Brother?
I don't mean watching back reruns. I mean when was the first year you actually watched the show, whether it was because you weren't interested before or because of your age or whatever. Feel free to post reasons in the thread.

I first watched back in 2000 when it was all new and nobody knew if it was going to ever really work.

About 2 weeks in to BB1.

A friend kept saying how good it was so I gave it a shot.

You've even watched a series that didn't exist if you started in 1999.

...haha..Marjorie....yeah I liked Darren as well..it was also good that they had something to do..(although some housemates hated doing the chickens..)..like caring for something and to focus on but I guess that made for less drama and arguments...I'm not sure that Nasty Nick would seem so nasty now because they all have such contact from outside anyway and it's less a thing to discuss or being seen to influence nominations...

I know right.I remember when writing anything down in there deserved capitol punishment.Nasty nick would'nt even be noticed these days.Back when no outside contact meant you could'nt even communicate to the outside via the cameras.

BB5.

I remember seeing the promo for Black Friday, and Big Brother Goes Evil, as it was advertised with the last ever Friends.

Originally, I was planning to only watch the last ever Friends, but I left it on Channel 4 after Friends, and the launch was on, and I remember Marco entering, saying he hated Asylum seekers in his VT, then for them to put Ahmed in afterwards, who's an asylum seeker, who also hates gay people. I knew it would be electric after that, and I was intrigued so continued to watch the rest of the launch, and loved it. And have been a BB fan since.
