Default Is this series worth catching up on?

I haven't watched any of it, and have only been following it by reading posts/threads on here.

Just wondering if it's worth it? It doesn't sound that good, but Raph's probably the only reason for me to do so lol.

It's been okay mostly but idk if I could be bothered catching up with it all. Maybe wait for slimpickens or someone like that to upload "Sukhvinders best moments" and "BB18 all fights" and just watch that instead.

I've enjoyed it but it's getting so far off what BB should be, it's annoying and I'd imagine this will be my last time watching a civilian series (I doubt they're going to make many more of them anyway ratings have been so bad)

I'll probably tune in for the final and then watch the series in full in a few months time. Right now, there's no appeal to me whatsoever, which is a shame really.

Unless you have a lot of free time and nothing else to watch, I'd say wait until you do have time - it's not worth going out your way to watch it all especially when CBB starts soon

Watch Fight Night and the week in the lead up to it though, that was brilliant!

Yeah I'd wait for Sukhvinder, Chanelle and Isabelle's best bits videos. Watch the All Fights videos on BB18 too. It's been quite a dramatic argument filled series.

Its been an ok series, not as good as last years. I personally wouldn't say its worth catching up on. The series seemed to peak in the first 2-3 weeks after fight night 2 / people walked or ejected it went down hill a bit for me.

It's been one of the overall weakest series in BB history.

Fight night 2 was worth a watch but apart from that it's all been pretty... meh.

I can sum it up for you to save you the energy and time of trawling through the episodes yourself:

1. Lots of twerking and crude talk about boring sex acts.

2. Lots of LOUD 'look at me' type of singing that is weak on lyrics, loud on volume

3. Lots of petty arguments with little logic or reason, but mostly people playing the victim card trying to be as 'offended as possible' in order to 'win' the argument

4. Lots of hypocritical 'virtue signalling'. By that i mean people advertising themselves as innocent angels like 'i'm so honest' 'i always say it your face' 'i never say a bad word about people' 'i want to inspire the world to be a better place' etc etc kinda rubbish. Then those same people are the ones who do most of the bitching and/or cause most of the arguments! People saying they are one thing then acting the opposite (Sukhvinder, Chanelle, Raph, Andrew, Sue and Hannah probably the worst for that).

Basically i'd advise watch launch night. People are pretty much what you expect them to be from their VTs.

Then they got put in the house, split into two bedrooms which caused a kind of house divide. Since then it's all been singing, shouting, smoking, and egotistical flare ups.

Pretty much like typical civilian Big Brother but with less interesting and original characters than usual.
