Personally, I think the presence of the squad has been hugely detrimental to the show. A large chunk of the housemates are just utterly exhausted by living with them. Difficult personalities aside, these people aren't even civilised in company.

I think if Bear had been there on his own then he'd have been marginally better but he went in with friendships established prior to the show and, in addition, has found a moronic enabler in Heavy D who not only encourages him but joins in which makes them compete for who can be the most obnoxious.

Shows like GS, EOTB etc., thrive on the terrible behaviour because ALL participants are like that. I've said it before that these people wouldn't get away with this behaviour in any other sphere. All that has happened in this CBB is the overbearing obnoxiousness and anti-social actions of a few have just made for a miserable, stifled and suffocated house. Shame.

You're right to say the section of the CBB house that hasn't been hardened by appearances on other 'reality' shows must be wondering what on earth is going on? Bear's antics are explicable in the context of Ex On The Beach, but if you're unfamiliar, it must be like being trapped in a confined space with a full-on lunatic.

Well said Elliebrew. You are so spot on. It's really sad that the morals of people have stooped so low. It's dire and what is tragic is that a generation has formed believing that behaviour is acceptable.
I feel for the other housemates...because how do you deal with that behaviour?
They have withdrawn...Bear is controlling them. They are surviving each day by having to deal with Bear....he rules the house because he is an intimidating bully and it's spoilt the whole show.
