Default Holy crap is this show boring

This show is a borefest since Marc left. None of these drones deserve to win. Is there an option to vote "none of the above" when picking the winner?

They must love the new focus on Harry's tantrums and Chloe's mild dramatics.

I watch Love Island and maybe BB if there's nothing else on. I'm sure people only watch it because we're so close to the end and they just want to know which dickhead wins.

He was the show, the show fell on its ass as soon as he left.

hmmmm. What specifically were the improvements? The constant sitting around and patting each other on the back, or more focus on Harry and Nick's depressing relationship? Even the cash bombs, which should be really entertaining, were predictable and boring with this lot. The only good thing to come out of it was the evaporation of over half the prize pool. BB has to make the money back that they are losing in lower ratings and vote revenues now that Marc left.

Thats not true, the show has improved in the ratings since his eviction. Cba to discuss the rest, it's a difference in opinion, not a correct or incorrect answer (although your opinion is in the minority, mine isn't).

Once again spot on mate !

"Marc was the show" and "The show was complete ****" are definitely correlated :3

Ratings in what context? Of course overall ratings increase slightly as the show gets towards the end as they do every year, but they are lower than previous seasons. They would be much higher if Marc was still in there, because whether you loved him or hate him, you tuned in to watch him.

The series is still ****, but it's greatly improved since Marc has left because every Housemate is getting focus instead of it just being “The Marc Show” and they're actually doing a week long task which is refreshing to see.

Would you understand what would happen to something bad if you removed the detrimental attribute.

Your question was answered, your comprehension let you down, perhaps.

You're suggesting that an overnight increase in viewers was because it suddenly became 'nearer the end'? Doesn't seem likely, I feel like you know that too. Its more likely that people tuned back in after hearing the news that Marc was evicted, love him or hate him, people tuned out because of him.

Sunday (the first episode without him since his entrance) was the most watched episode of the series excluding the launch. Take off your 'I love Marc glasses' mate
