Default This 'terrible cast' has given us a lot

For some reason, this years cast has been slated everywhere. Even I hated the thought of so many reality TV savvy characters going into civi bb.

However, I don't think I've ever had so many favourites in one series (and so many who are still there by week 4)
Sukhvinder, Arthur, Chanelle, Deborah, Isabelle, Sue, Raph are all fantastic housemates and have had a huge impact, and I would struggle to even pick 5 housemates from any other series who I've liked to the same level as them 7!

Although I'd still say last years cast was better overall, this year has given me a lot of favourites... then again there has been a pool of 22 of them

The cast has been really strong, with the likes of Isabella, Chanelle, Hannah, Deborah and Raph still there with Sue looking promising as well. We've also had some terrible housemates which have made the best better

This series is getting badly bashed because most of them aren't very likable.

But in terms of entertainment I'd say that Raph, Hannah, Deborah, Chanelle, Isabelle, Arthur, Sukhvinder, Imran, Lotan in his last week, Rebecca in her last week, and Joe in the week Rebecca left have given us something to talk about.

And Tom with his hatred of Hannah.

Where as compared to BB12 which was all Aaron, BB15 which was basically the Helen Show, and BB16 which became the Marc Show, this is a step in the right direction that 12 Housemates have given us large discussion points, whether good or bad they've given us something.

Whilst I do think that this series isn't the best, I do think that it's overhated by the BB community as they can sit through BB12 if they want to.

This 'terrible cast' has given us a lot .... of the worst viewing imaginable. Contrived rubbish consisting of smut, swearing, and fighting do not make interesting or good viewing

Ive been a fan and a big critic of the show from day one. This is the first year that the show has annoyed me. It is thick on drama and cameras huggers and low on fun and entertainment. God only knows why the producers thought that a large mix of wanabee z listers would bring anything other than nastiness to the show. Its promoted as CIVVY BB, not z lister or CBB. They wont come back from this and Im pretty sure they will sell the show soon.

It's a great cast. The series is great too. Not as good as 17 or 13 but still better than 14/15/16. Shame the ratings aren't reflective but that's down to them as a whole having no faith in the format, confusing scheduling, bad production decisions and the 'Bear effect'. I don't think people are 'bored' of BB - 1.6 million still tuned in just 12 months ago.

LMAO, if this is the first year why have I seen you moaning even worse than now basically every series the last few years.

The cast has been great. People moan about everything. Honestly, LI gets great ratings with the same type of people BB fans despise. I would try to copy that as well if I were a producer.

This is so true. People say BB should try and emulate the way Love Island is produced and run even though Love Island is everything they despise about a series of BB.
