Just the different format & how oddly it's edited by comparison was a turnoff for me.

BBUS2 is actually great, should get to that!
Well see I've watched all of BBUK, so watching it the way it is matters in no way to me whatsoever .

William is a problematic mess, and an interesting type of drama starter who goes way too far in how politically progressive he is, but it's a very organic and entertaining sight, even though I'm hoping he'll be evicted first before he gets too much (I'm guessing he will, they had a bookmaker in who said Jordan was the second favourite to win while William is already 100/1 with little to no shot with the public ). And Jordan even better, the way she blew up when being nominated because none of them wanted to admit to putting her and William up and then they clock how boring to live with the rest are .
Yeah the crowd that loudly proclaims BBUS1 to be a complete snoozefest are people who don't even give it a chance because of the format. It's definitely a bit dry and dull especially as time goes on but it's still miles ahead of seasons like 14, 16, 19, and maybe even 12 too. There's something quaint and charming about its simplicity and how CBS couldn't sell it to its audience at all, and contrary to popular belief the biggest flaw is *not* the cast or the format, but the fact that "banishments" happen every other week so you get to Week 10 and only five people have been eliminated

An interesting rewatch - I've seen bits and pieces just to see what it's like. It didn't actually rate too badly, but it was in the shadow of Survivor which was a megahit and seemed dull by comparison.

I think the biggest mistake was they didn't really adapt the European format for an American audience - and by that I don't mean the nomination and eviction process but how they aired it. A show stripped nightly for weeks on ends didn't really suit the US audience - had they done this series as three hour long episodes a series it may have worked better. Also as mentioned the alternate weekly nominations and evictions just slowed everything down - the UK were the first to shorten the format and have weekly evictions and that pretty much then became the norm for most countries picking up the format.

Eugh I can't believe George is the only one of the HG's from this season to ever be a returnee, just because he's goofy and got given a well-remembered "chicken" nickname. He's soppy, deluded and obnoxious, and not this "lovely man" he was made out to be. What set it for me was when they took part in roasting Jordan and Curtis as a game in a night leading up to their eviction, and he was interrupting Karen's but then acted like she was only offended at the fact they were playing a roast game. No, it's because you're a rude and childish middle-aged goon, GEORGE.

Brerrrgh. The fact Brittany would've won the whole season if voting went normally but didn't because George's obsessive family got their entire state to launch a campaign to vote her out because of her being his competition . He's not even a good houseguest, just an unamusing lazy man who tries painfully too hard to be funny, has some weird racial and discriminatory undertones too (doing one diary room save campaign where he pretends to be a pot smoking hippie and another one where he pretends to be an overseas convenience store owner ). I'm deeply looking forward to when the public gets revenge on his family and kicks his arse out of there.

Week 9 (Cassandra, Curtis and Eddie nominated)
1. Eddie (-)
2. Cassandra (-)

3. Curtis (-)
4. Josh (-)
5. Jamie (-)
6. George (-)


Brittany's gone but she was still the only highlight I got from this week, in her illustrious cameo where Julie let her speak to one houseguest . At this point, she can't stand Jamie, and when the houseguests have to speak someone to speak to her, they think of picking Jamie until:

Julie: Alright, 30 secon--
Brittany: JOSH I WANT IT TO BE YOU. TALK TO ME. NOT JAMIE.
Julie: OH--Brittany's breaking ALL rules
Brittany: .

And then she speaks to Josh and exposes George's season ruining family<3.

"George's WIFE organised this whole VOTE BRITTANY OUT CAMPAIGN, and they got the WHOLE town all this stuff they're gonna vote out every single person that's the next most POPULAR?! So, they have this FRIEND with a PHONE COMPANY that's targeting people it's crazy it's CRAZY OUTSIDE, it's it's...MEAN! They're MEAN OUTSIDE! "

He was positively edited and "wacky" so I think you'd like him.

He's not even worth hate off me, he's just noise usually, way too loud and rarely funny, offers very little of entertainment for me, and who just so happened to have a family that decided to ruin the season.

Yeah Chicken George just like..... consciously makes an effort to appeal to the lowest common denominator in BB1 and it's infuriating at times.

There was nothing fishy about Scott’s eviction. IIRC what was shown was fairly true to how it happened. HG’s these days are given far more leeway in terms of behaviour than they were in the earlier series.

10. Curtis
Finale
1. Brittany (-) - I delighted in watching Brittany and how she embraced how socially awkward she was, never being afraid to do things outside the box, while still being ballsy enough to put people who pissed her off in their place like Josh when he was leading her on, or when Will was being...Will. Confrontations from her like that along with her delivering some of the funniest moments, all the while being a lovable 25 year old virgin still prone to daily exhibitionism made it easy to see why being voted to win the show would've been a cakewalk for her if not for the dirty play from George's family.
2. Karen (+7) - The unstable sidekick of Brittany<3. It was easy to get behind her from her unloving husband's treatment of her but thankfully she was on-edge most of her stay so made for entertaining viewing in how pent up she was. It was lovely when she was offered by Brittany to live with her .
3. Jordan (+5) - I don't think I actually like Jordan . But I really appreciated her as the closest thing to villainy and strategy in a season of a show that would crave that sort of thing in future. At first I thought she was this misunderstood individual thought to be more unemotional than she really was but no she's pretty cold about everything lol. Because of the first season's usual format of an eviction every two weeks, it's actually a good thing she got to be there the whole month and it was easy to see the decline into usual peacefulness the season descended to after she left.
4. Eddie (+3) - While he displayed some awkward 2000-like views on things and took a little while for me to warm up to him, Eddie ended up evolving into being a noteworthy presence, had a charismatic sense of humour, and generally had good views on honesty and integrity in seeking to win so in a way I'm glad that he won.
5. William (-) - An absolute horror, much more than I anticipated, had the most aggressive type of equality protesting I ever witnessed, but there's no denying he was an entertaining contestant who in his short time was still responsible for the biggest conflicts to occur. The season was bound to decline when a hate figure like him was gone, but in a way I'm glad he lasted as long as he did because there was the chance he'd get too much.
6. Curtis (+4) - A pretty minor character who I didn't really like much at first but he turned out to have more aloofness than he originally let on so I did wind up valuing him more as time went on.
7. Cassandra (-3) - Another low-visibility contestant not without appeal. Very intelligent, albeit reserved, but similar to Curtis, not without a fun side to her as well.

8. Jamie (-5) - I wanted to find some ironic appreciation for her but it became pretty difficult to find humour in how fake she was when she was pretty void of ever projecting any honest feelings on anything.
9. George (-7) - Some people here think I HATE George, but no I couldn't care for having that energy . I can see some appeal in finding a man cackling at his own sanity deteriorating on TV but with George it was hard for me to find much to be interested in when most of what he did was just volume and self-admittedly trying to catch the camera's eye in a very knobhead way. His contradiction of not letting the hate for him outside cause him to quit only to THEN want to quit as some fake "team effort" with the house, but THEN not quit just because the others ended up not wanting to, ugh it was a lowpoint. He also was mostly a "nice guy" but I can't get behind that when moments occured like mocking Karen during a roast for nominees where it didn't involve her, or lying to Brittany he wouldn't use performing with her belongings in a mean way only to vent his frustrations to the camera about Karen in some weird outfit , and other than that generally being self-destructive around others without having much manners to him. Simply cringe.
10. Josh (-4) - A former womanizer who was usually boring.




This season really is not all that terrible. Sure it's boring, and slow as hell in how it deals with evictions. George's family truly ruins the entire boot order with their STUPID STUPID campaigning against Legend Brittany. But otherwise, BB1 lacks in offending me outside of gradually becoming uninteresting to sit through. If it had the editing and format of a later BBUS season, there's a scenario it could've been much better, but for what it was at the time, I don't think it's something worth RAGING about or worth acting like it never existed when it was the birth of this show.

Will start BB2 tonight!

BB2
Premiere
1. Autumn
2. Nicole
3. Bunky
4. Shannon
5. Will
6. Monica
7. Sheryl

8. Hardy
9. Krista

10. Mike
11. Kent
12. Justin


The jump from how the BB1 premiere was like an Americanized version of the UK's to this where they jump straight from entrances to a full-on highlight show and tasks is a staggering leap, it already feels like they're trying to pretend the first season ever happened .

I’m currently watching this season atm and my ranking for the launch was pretty much the same as yours except Autumn and Nicole would be switched, and Kent and Justin would be switched too
