This legends thing has dragged on far too long, in fact it probably shouldn't even have been done in the first place.

The highlights have basically been focusing on Helen, Brian and Nikki and now Brian is gone they have chucked Aisleyne in to cause drama with Helen and will now focus on that.

There are eight BB16 housemates facing an eviction this week and we are barely getting any footage of them, I mean I never saw Harry once last night until right near the end of the show and even then it was a glimpse of her side on.

How is that fair? they are extras in their own series

...yeah Josy I totally agree, I said similar in another thread a few days ago and those are exactly my thoughts....this whole thing is not only a 'lack of belief' in the 'civilian' housemates, more or less saying their pretty boring but instead of bringing the drama/controversy in...(although I do like things to be more natural..)...they should have contrived more situations of 'dramz' for the civilians rather than them being completely dominated and overshadowed in airtime that has been focused on the exes....but it's also a lack of confidence in themswelve..(BB..)...because it's not only saying that they're fairly rubbish at choosing interesting housemates etc but that they're also having to rehash/recycle stuff from the past and that's not a good sign for fans to have confidence in the show...

[Mick]

My thoughts exactly if these ex house mates are considered legends (and I cannot see why)then stick them in CBB.I still feel disappointed RE the Four evicted in one go all could have developed into good HMs given the chance.

I don't really understand the thinking this time round.

[waterhog]

i said this a while back - past bb people have had there time - this is meant to be a new experience not a repeat.

[-Sue-]

BB could quite easily create an off-season BB HM's of the past show for charity

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

It was good to begin with having the legends in but I feel it's dragging on to long now. That said, I'm looking forward seeing what ashleyne gets up to, in the house.

Instead of this BB's Actors crap, how about they actually become more strict with the tasks, punish the Housemates over appropriate things and not for “Jack farted in Nikki's face” which I swear they would do if it ever happens.

Basically take the Duvets away and become more strict, show them having to do the Shopping list too and less arguments and more fun, we need a balance and I think that we would see a better series for it.

It is ridiculous now, The series has been ruined

[LeatherTrumpet]

I am afraid its the dog eat dog world of tv in 2015

they cant afford to have a show about Nick and Harry or Joel and Danny and still expect the ad dollar to come in

maybe 10 years ago but not now with the twitter generation and attention spans being greatly reduced

Its Showbiz Darling

[Suze]

Spot on as usual Josy.

Absolutely loved this show once but now with each passing series I find it getting more and more ridiculous and harder and harder to watch with what little they give us to watch which of course, they limit it so as we get just what they want to manipulate us with seeing. What a joke, they take viewers money and give little in return because they think most want to watch Jerry Springer type of shows rather than fun entertainment.

[Ellen]

Josy & Suze

100% agree with both posts

[VanessaFeltz.]

They are the most pointless group of hms i have ever seen so i dont care about seeing them.

If ex hms didnt come back i wouldnt even watch the episodes like i didnt watch day 5 to marc's fake eviction

[iRyan]

I kind of disagree.

BB isn't necessarily giving the legends more airtime or attention, obviously they're bigger characters than the originals, but I don't really feel that they are taking that much away from the other housemates. Harry, Sam, and Chloe have been affected, i'll agree on that. But I don't see anything unfair about it. They were really put in to give the original hms something to play with and it's the original hms fault if they aren't rising to the occasion.

[just thinkin]

don't know why they even bothered with contestants this year....they're not even bothered about them.

[bitontheslide]

im stunned, because the originals are not even being considered for a moment now. Spot a thread on the forum related to any of them they are few and far between.

I am surprised how much focus has gone to the "legends". Who needs to analyse yet again people that are not even in the running to win the show

The show is just a farce, if I was an original, i would walk out and tell the BB producers to get ****ed

[Jamesy]

I can see a lot of the originals being very angry when they leave and see the last two weeks of highlights hasn't shown them at all.

It's very unfair on them. The legends thing was fun for a week but letting it run longer is stupid.

I totally agree. The legends were to go in there for ONE week now we hardly see anything from the original housemates. One week and it would have been entertaining now its bloody sickening

[Jake.]

it's been unfair since the #4out4in thing, so I'm not surprised original housemates are still being shunned

[reece(:]

To be the fair I'd have totally switched off if Nikki/Ais weren't there, only thing keeping me invested.

[joeysteele]

You are totally right Josy.

I am really sick of these past housemates and their dramas getting all the highlights and the original housemates virtually ignored.

It is disrespectful to have chosen so many people for a BB series to have it hijacked by BB bringing in and extending the stay of past housemates.

I said yesterday night, there are 8 of them up for eviction this week.we the viewers are being asked to spend money deciding who to evict, yet all we are seeing is the nonsense from the past housemates and nothing of the others really.

Whoever the production team is for this BB series, they need sacking,they have made this a total farce.

[jaxie]

I agree with you Josy. The housemates have been completely lost in there. I'm finding it hard to identify with any of them now.

[Josy]

It's going to be the same tonight too because of the Helen/Nikki/Aisleyne stuff

[Will.]

Its because all the BB16HM like each other tbh, if they had loads of heated rows and stuff we would see them more.
