Do think BB 8 would have been the next BB5 if it wasnt for the race row.
Charlie and billy nearly had a fight so they put them in the "Happy room" prob Scared of another fight night.

What am saying is do you think they would have picked more outrage HMs if it wasnt for the race row

No the HM for dire, its there job to provide entertainment, and they were none of them.

[dbh-g]

the producers have admitted that they made this year boring as they wanted to stop calls for its axe after the race row.

And do you think the producers would have picked such dire housemates if they weren't playing it safe?

They had Charley who even made the most extreme comments to Gerry, still she just wasn't fun to watch, they were all crap, lets not blame the producers but the **** HM. Chanelle copied Nikki and VB, charley was loudmouth like Jade Goodey but still nothing worth of entertainment, Twins and Brian were yawn all throughout the show, none of them are worth mentioning.

Like I said it's down to HM not good task, good twist, but the HM and none of them were worth anything, if the girl twist had of happened say in BB5 or BB7, it would of been an instant hit due to the characters.

[Matt]

The all girl task would be a disaster in any series.

And it's not just the housemates that make Big Brother you know.

[Cfan]

Of course, it would have been an even bigger freak show than BB7, constantly pushing the boundaries yet more and more.

[Sticks]

Well Emily would not have been ejected like she was, and probably would have got a warning - if that is what the OP was getting at.

I am still surprised she was not reported to the police by the production team and arrested for incitement to commit racial hatred, just to try and get brownie points

[Sam]

Yeah its pretty much fact, they played it safe. Safe is boring.

The characters in the house were dull, the tasks were dull. Im not even going to say it was a "nice" series because it was still terribly dull.

[XxShortyxX]

The only reason BB played it safe, was becaise of the GP, who moaned to Ofcom about the Race-row. In another forum someone said that BB8 would be boring, and not very good because them people would had spoilt it, and gusse what, that person was right. It wasn't the HM's fault, maybe a bit of BB's fault, but IMO it was the GP going OTT, seeing things that weren't there.

I really enjoyed BB8, Samanda made BB8 for me, oh and they was robbed

i totaly agree besides the usual"Samanda where robbed"bullshit

[Jackie]

Yes i think it would have been much better,because than they don't have to be carefull what they said.

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, BB were scared they where gonna make a mistake

[Foebane100]

The producers are weak. Instead of trying to use and work the issue with maybe a quiet chat with all involved letting Emily know she shouldn't have said it and then explaining it all. Maybe even a sort of history task with them exploring the base of the word.

Instead lets have a scapegoat and throw her to the wolves, last I heard Emily had left the country after the constant abuse she was getting.

[DreadPirate]

Yeah probably.

[Captain.Remy]

The producers had to play it safe in order to calm the whole CBB5 thingy. That's understandable and actually I loved that series, we had some normal people.

Yes, I agree.

Its funny how theres all this complaint about not enough normal people in BB anymore, but except for about 2 (Tracey and Jonty) they were completely normal.

BB whingers should really make their minds up, eh?

Yep, BB8 ad so many "normal" people. That's why I love BB8 because it's good to see some diversity, normal people. I was sick of all those freaks in BB7, that wasn't enjoyable to watch.

Well there in lies the problem - people complain about normal people, but when they get them they complain of them being dull. On the other hand, BB5 was the first series to have tons of freaks in it. This was a huge success. This lead to non-stop freaks getting put in the house. People began to hate this. They stopped. BB8 was called crap and boring with no good housemates.

I think the people who complain about BB are just doing it for the sake of it!

I'm not complaining about what happened in BB7, it happened, end of. I just say that I don't like that type of housemates because they were completely ridiculous and the whole thing was awful (for me I precise).
BB5 had a great diversity of housemates, that was enjoyable in the way they were all different and the whole thing worked very well.

I never called you a complainer. In my eyes, a complainer is someone who says this is the end of BB every year and says its god awful all the time - why do they watch it? (its like those arseholes who show up to the football just to shout about how crap they team they're supporting is - wtf?)

You can dislike a series, like most people do. I would say BB5 is when they started producing freaks. BB4 was dull and was the last of the normal people. I mean you could very well say that not ALL of the BB5 housemates were freaks, but the same could be said for BB7 - Glyn, Aisleyne, Richard, Jennie, Imogen, Mikey, Sezer, Grace, Susie, Jonathan, Spiral, Michael, Bonnie, Dawn and George. I would not call any of them freaks. Pete, Nikki, Jayne, Lea, Lisa, Sam and Shabhaz were though.

[farhad]

It could have survived lazy production if it had witty, entertaining housemates. But it had neither.

Mind you,I guess selecting those housemates was part of the production so...a lousy production team.

And lousy orders from the top of course, ordering a set-up 'love' affair to make up for all the Celeb BB5 hate and controversy.

It was shoddy from beak to arsehole. It lacked everything and was generally an insult to the viewers and fans.
