Bitching and arguing are fundamental ingredients of BB, it's not a holiday camp.

I am a real BB fan but I just happen to disagree with you. A great BB for me, has dramatic arguments, of course, but also I like laugh out loud moments and most of the series have provided me with that. This series has not, it's been negative right from day one. And letting Conor stay in and giving him the chance to win £50k? If that isn't producers rigidly controlling events, I don't know what is.

Absolute nonsense, it's never been more scripted & isn't even close to being a reality show anymore.

I watch it & accept it for what it has become but I'm not kidding myself into thinking that what they are showing us isnt carefully editited to play out how they want it to.

It's not in my top 4 BBs but much more diverse characters than this year. Rebekah was a fantastic baddie. The Wolfpack were hilariously badly run and I loved the Mark/Aaron/Harry friendship and humour.

[The Tobester]

I lost interest in it from about week 3 and I'm normally glued.

[dancing ledge]

The acid test for me is whether I keep watching, and I have. The characters haven't been the most likable, but I have found the dynamics interesting and the show rarely dull. I gave up on the one that Josie won--it was all right to start with, but in the last weeks we were left with some truly dull characters, people like Andrew, JJ2, the "cougar" lady, Steve the soldier ...can't even remember all the names. This series was much better, but not, admittedly, a classic.

[gavin shipman]

I enjoyed this years.

I don't think it's top 3 by a long shot but better than BB8, BB10 AND BB11

Nope it most certainly has not. I can think of some dire years. This one has been good if a little painful at times.

[Josephine_1]

I think it is up there with one of the poorest yep. Just all in all lacked any of the old kind of excitment we knew and loved.

[James Frederick]

I think it has been the most boring to I stopped watching after the Conor rant but even on here no matter what time of the day or night you logged in or checked on Twitter it was always the same story.

Person A was b1tching about person B to persons C-D and E

A little b1tching is fine even good at times 24/7 of it is boring even more boring than watching everyone get along 24/7 without so much as a raised voice or slight moan at least when they get along they have fun

[Tomi Adenuga]

Last years was great. What you on about?

[big brother 9]

Bb4
Bb12
Bb celeb highjack (i know people loved it but it wasnt a patch on other series)
Teen bb

[zooooooooooooo]

BB4 was the second best series, it was great

[disneylover]

BB4 was the worst for me, it was terrible.

[koantemplation]

Big Brother 8 was where the rot set in.

You had Ziggy and Chanelle both clearly in it for the coverage and didn't really care about the viewers.

You poor Emily unfairly kicked out for using the N word.

We had the bias of the twins being one vote.

We had the winner Brian. Being dumb won.

And worst of all we had control freak, and joy sucker, the one who cannot be named.

BB was never the same after that.

[zelda fan]

BB12=everyone has to hook up with someone.

[kimotag]

Too nasty for me and Conor leaving with 50k and not being properly punished annoyed me more than practically anything I've seen on BB. On the other hand I liked all of the top 4 plus Lauren and found Benedict and Lydia entertaining as well! It certainly wasn't the worst BB and it was a big improvement on the previous year, I thought.

Actually come to think of it, bb8 was terrible

[Oliver Loxton-P]

Last years was the worst, closely followed by BB4.

[Dixon]

Now enough time has passed since the end of the last series, i'd have to go back to BB9 being the worst for me.
Apart from Steph, who i thought had potential, all the others i found depressing and ultra boring viewing. Either that, or i found them annoying in the extreme or just vile.

How was it the worst? I don't understand how ANYONE can say last year's was bad. It was one of the best imo. It was so interesting. Even if there were a few mean housemates, they still made it more interesting to watch.

People will be saying BB14 in a few months, mark my words.

are you trying, to tell us something .......... Jack ?

[John_Lochery]

I cant believe people are saying BB8!! BB8 is one of my favourite BBs!!!

BB9 was the worst one for me. I remember feeling relieved when it was over. Got sooooo boring by the end

[Syntax Error]

The worst BBs were BB4, BB8 & BB11, in that order.

4 = House packed full of fence sitting dullards. Anyone remotely interesting was voted out early, although Ray managed to last, he was outnumbered!

8 = Carole Vincent sucked the life out of that show; Brian Belo's acting will live long in the memory & the Ziggy & Chanelle pukefest was the final nail in its coffin.

11 = The highlights shows were seemingly edited by 12 year olds, as they consisted of 45 minutes of a mumbling quilt! The only saving grace for me was seeing John-James' meltdown in the DR. It was so satisfying to see the spineless, misogynistic bully brought to his knees & the funniest aspect of it all was that the threat he perceived was all in his head!

Well, I thought bb13 was one of the worst, one of the least interesting, and that the 'mean housemates' made is less interesting to watch, rather than more.

What did you find interesting about it?
