No, this year has been a improvement on the last couple.

I like how we've been getting DR noms.

The cast is great.

Some more LF would be nice but anyway.

Tasks aren't amazing but hopefully they will improve as the series progresses.

But like every show there are negatives and positives.

No! Definitely not! CBB is so predictable. If Ch5 reverted to the old tried and tested BB formula, they'd improve the BB ratings without a doubt.

Yeah, It doesn't bother me too much but I would be grateful for LF in the afternoon instead of like 11:30PM.

I don't think it should be scrapped but agree with other opinions saying the tasks need to be improved. They need some new ideas

No. Anyone who prefers CBB can just watch that, there's already 2 a year for you.

No, but maybe they should rest it for a year or something to get some new ideas for tasks etc..

Yes. What is the point of the show if all of the biggest characters are voted out the first few weeks and then we are left with all the bores?

Honestly, I've barely kept up with the show because when I do watch it, I'm trying to figure out why I'm even looking at it in the first place. Its starting to become a drag and a really pointless show.

Nope. Given the right cast and a very nice set - as this year proves - it can still be compelling viewing. Still needs a few tweaks with the tasks, but it's certainly back to at least a BB9/BB13 standard series. (I liked both a lot even though I'm sure many didn't)

I wish it'd go back to having 'normal' people in, instead of models etc or people who slept with X celebrity.

No. If you're bored switch off and leave those who enjoy it to enjoy it

No. I don't really enjoy CBB as much the drama is way too overwhelming lately I've never got past the second week.

No because people still enjoy the show.


Anyone who doesn't like it can watch something else and those who do like it can still enjoy it if it's not scrapped.

That way everyone is happy.

If you think it should be cancelled then stop watching. If you want to watch something boring watch the US, Canadian, Australian versions.
