I hope the powers that be get to see it.

 

 

So, you got it all off your chest then      

 

Good for you, but honestly.....I don't hold out much hope for them taking notice of what anyone says. It's all about the money, money, money

With normal noms this week Ashleigh will get the most, she got a lot of boos so could go. That leaves only 2 that I like and the others will take over the show, not sure I can put up with weeks of that

That's one more that I've liked from the start

Not that I think it will do any good!

Anyway, it's too late as far as I'm concerned, as I've decided to stop watching.

Hope you told them that too.

I did!

  Hope you gave 'em stink Yogi

I did, Rog.

I told them it wasn't the app which needed improving, it was the show, and with the exception of Chris and Christopher, the HMs were dire.

I said I was sick of the manipulation and stupid twists and that the person who decided to introduce the Pass To The Final should be sacked.

I said Helen was vile and was being allowed to dominate the housemates through fear.

I also said the show was no longer Big Brother but another version of TOWIE/Geordie Shore drivel.

Oh, and I had a rant about no Live Feed too.

I pretty much said the same Yogi. I also highlighted that Big Brother is so far removed from the original concept that it is now as you say a parody of cheap tabloid TV like the dire TOWIE and MIC.

 

I also made a strong point of the contestants no longer being ordinary Joe's, but people who have already relatively high profile lives and clearly are looking to boost this profile along with C5 using it to sell advertising and rags. You can also see from the amount of work that goes into pre-show preparation that the marketing/exploitation machine is in full flow.

 

My response was probably a little longer than this post!

 

I too have made reference to the fact that it has reached a point where I no longer wish to take time out to watch the show.

 

I've said it before, but this time I do feel like the hammer is firmly coming down on the final nail.

I agree with everything you've said EC. It makes me sad and angry that a show I loved has come to this.

Me too, but the positive for me is that since 2009 I have joined a community that has a diverse set of subjects to talk about and that BB although the original catalyst is probably no longer the glue that holds this group of forum members together.

 

Yes, it's sad that BB has become what it is, but I believe that even if we changed the thread title to "The Memorial Big Brother Thread" everyone would still contribute.

 

Enthusiastic Contrafibularities

The best thing about Big Brother USED to be that it was a social experiment with many different types of people and not just a load of fame hungry pretty people.  Almost every one of the HM's this year are in careers which publicity can help.  Actors/models/prossies.....the show is just highlighting them before they try to make more money off the back of it.  I loved seeing how well a farmer, a nurse and a rich kid could get along when everyone was on level footing but with all the fame whores and BB interfering too much it's just another stepping stone reality show.

 

I also loved the basic BB.  Rich/poor divides and proper week long tasks.  Not BB choosing who gets to play what role so that they can big them up or make them into a baddie for the week.

And I agree with both of you The manipulation is beyond a joke!! The BB FB page has had a pic of HeLen toasting the fact that she wasn't boo'd last night .....I nearly threw my IPad across the room when I saw it  And  it now seems that they have started lining Chris up for noms , if not this week then next ,  with Steven saying he is untrustworthy .....cue loads of bad edits !!!! It's all a load of rubbish .....and I am seriously thinking of not watching , but simply following via the threads on here !!

The box didn't show up on the app for me, Pengy. Kimota said it wan't working on some browsers.

I had to fire up the lappy and it worked on that.

I've tried google, firefox and IE and it doesn't appear on any  perhaps they removed it due to the negative responses
