Surely they have some ethical duty in this regard.
Sociopathy has become a form of entertainment, and many times these people will get really far in the show because of it. It should not be encouraged, and it is a form of mental and emotional torture for the 'regular' housemates to be subjected to. It's largely an invisible mental-illness because it does not conflict with our cultural aspirations of "getting ahead" / Capitalism. Last edited by Turtle; 10-09-2016 at 05:26 PM. |

I think it's cause it helps make some of the best housemates.. People who come to mind:
Dan (BB10USA), Makosi (BB6UK), Paulie (BB18USA), Cassandra (BBCAN4)

there have been a number of psychologists, who have quit the show over the years, 2004,2005,2006,2011,2014,2015,2016, there are many people who should never of went into the house, but the bb bosses rejected their concerns,

Also it's SUPER hard to diagnose a sociopath because they know exactly how to give all the right answers. Paulie (BB18USA) even alluded to lying to the psychologist to get through

On that note though, I barely watched this CBB (only the finale) but Bear didn't come across as a sociopath at ALL to me, he's too unaware of what he's doing
I have a skill that allows me to identify a sociopath from miles away and bear really didn't give that vibe

I will say though that sociopaths would fair far better on the BBUSA/CAN version than the UK one, in fact the North American format of the game is to me, a sociopaths ultimate dream setting. A place where manipulation and fake charm is rewarded

LOL, I don't think they have done the psych tests for like 10 years or something Don't think they were too strict with it anyway given the likes of Shahbaz and Nikki got in there
As for examples of sociopath, main one that comes to mind is Bea Hamil.

They don't even check people's twitter accounts prior to entering so I doubt they do psych checks.

BB doesn't care for people's well being, it's about testing the Housemates and psychologically torturing them with demeaning tasks, annoying people to live with, the paranoia of not knowing what the public truly think of you (especially in the BB2-6 days) and how Davina/Brian/Emma is gonna treat you in your interview is another paranoia for the Housemates that BB wants them to be paranoid about.

They tend veer more towards exhibitionists more than sociopaths though... depends on the series.

I love the psychological aspects of this show, and hate the "I'm a celeb" type of vile tasks (vomiting contests etc.). It's a shame psyc on the side has gone, but at least we still have Pam Spears and Judi James. Without them it wouldn't be worth watching any more.

That Australian guy with the long curly hair, who was on BBCan, is a prime example. I remember him openly saying on his original season that he doesn't care about people unless he can use them. He was a superb manipulator, superficially charming, and conned the hell out of the audience. The reason they don't screen them out is that they're reasonably benign, as long as their behavior is monitored. Sociopaths who are physically or sexually abused when they're young are some of the most dangerous people in the world, however. Last edited by Dash Darington; 18-10-2016 at 02:41 PM. |

From BBCAN, Tim (BBCAN4) and Cassandra (BBCAN4) definitely come to mind, definitely. I thought this throughout the season so i'm glad you saw it too!

But YES they make phenomenal houseguests. Dan and Paulie are my two favourite ever BBUSA houseguests and Cassandra was my favorite from last season!

I think he's someone who can get very into a game and separate strategic decisions from his personal feelings but definitely not a sociopath. |

Sociopaths are the best kind of housemates.
