When LI exists

The narrator is the only good thing about it

The conversation is mainly ..I want to get to know you or I fancy you, the tasks are just dates and the kissing in bed is toe curling

How is it that people don’t mind admitting they watch it but get all snooty about BB

[Nicky91]

yeah true, they don't like it on BB but yet they do like it on LI


bit weird

I don't think people are even snobby about big brother anymore because most people either don't know that it still airs or barely pay it any mind when its on.

[armand.kay]

I can't tell you the last time I've heard about anyone speak about civilian big brother in real life..

[parmnion]

True cherie...ive had to hide my love of bb since bb6...when it became uncool to watch it...love island will go the same way as its original viewers age.

I only speak to 3 people in real life that watch big brother and that watch big brother and they're all gays. It's OTT to say that nobody knows its on anymore tho

[Vanessa]

I'm watching it, because there's no big brother yet. But i do actually quite like it. The narrator is hilarious

[Kazanne]

My nephews take the piss out of me something chronic when BB is on and call me sad,lol, I don't like it as much as I used to because of the reality Z listers etc,it has spoilt it, you know before anyone goes in what sort of people will enter,I prefer the good old days of Jo Bloggs from down the street, but it is what it is,but don't think I'de miss it now if it finished.

Not really, I don't know about you but most people I speak to now think of cbb as BB and just don't think about the civilian one at all. A lot of times when i tell people to watch the 'normal one' they're kind of gagged that its still on.

Unpopular opinion but cbb most of the times is trash. I can't put my finger on what it is but I rarely can make it past week 2, whereas 8 week of civilian big brother is no trouble at all for me.

LI is a fad and the "popular" thing to watch right now, where as BB is dated and not relevant so people dismiss it.

CBB began 8 months after the first BB.

[MTVN]

One of my reasons for disliking it tbh, BB pretty much revolutionised reality tv but is now sneered at as being trash while Love Island is talked up as a great phenomenon

Are you implying that love island isn't also seen as trash tv? It literally gets so much hate... Its just that love island is more relevant now so the criticisms doesn't pack as much of a punch.

One-off?

Certainly not.

The show involved some kind of charity to it right up until CBB6, if not the entire of its run on channel 4.

I will NEVER understand the appeal of Love Island over BB. It’s the most nauseating, vapid and mind numbing type of programme that promotes the idea of looks being above anything else like actual talent.
