Yes I regret watching this series. I've watched every one from the beginning some good, some boring and this will be the last. I was so pleased when channel 5 took it up but now wish they hadn't. There have always been some people we love to hate but before, if they stepped too far out of line Big Brother would swiftly sort them out but this year I have never seen such a bunch of nasty people in my life. There has been out and out bullying (of Deana, Lauren mostly) There have been rants of physical and sexual violence which should have resulted in immediate eviction, racist remarks, bitching and backstabbing and the producers are just as bad. The white room has been a complete fiasco, the twist regarding the prize money is ludicrous, there is the facebook issue and Bbbots is a shambles. They have ruined anything that was left of Big Brother

How on earth has this happened? thought you only heard about this in school yards...? I am sickened!!!
Totally agree with you

YES

But I now have it on in the background. Too boring to sit and watch properly atm.

And this twist has put me off even more.

I am - I missed the first 3 weeks and so I could have just not watched.

I made a conscious effort to catch up and was dragged in.

I wish I'd not bothered!

I so often agree with what Truth Teller has to say - and am not at all surprised to find that TT is finding the whole farago disgraceful ... I just got home and feel sickened all over again when I think about what they are doing ...

^^ This, very well put.

I have instructed my children and my grandchildren to have me sectioned if I ever mention wanting to watch BB again after this fiasco is finished

Well said.

I've stopped watching, really; but will probably look in to see what happens tonight.

I'm a mixture of sad and relieved. It's not a bad thing to break this addiction. I'm not a television watcher at all, usually; but I'm always hooked into Big Brother. Not this year. I think the spell's been broken.

Yes ... thank you Channel 5 ... it is going to feel like a relief to a lot of people I imagine ... you have set us free at last ...

The White Room thing especially at this stage of the show is really poor.

Yes me. I'm finding it very draining to watch, and actually this week I've barely watched any of it choosing to watch the Olympics instead. I don't think I've ever seen such a horrible, spiteful bunch of housemates in all my years of watching. It's been a very negative series all round, and unlike in previous years it looks like they will still be sniping at each other until the very end.

Pathetic and sad. I'm not sure I will watch BB14(if there is one)

I almost stopped watching it at the beginning, but got hooked back into it - I wish I hadn't. Depending on how tonight goes I may not bother with the rest of it.

As for future series - forget it!

This is quite telling. Most posters who have ever been on here for any length of time know that Sgt Rock's a die-hard BB fan.

It says it all, really; maybe they just don't care. Maybe they're happy that there'll be a steady flow of twitterati to latch onto a well-toned neanderthal ever year.

No the first half was really good, some great HMs and dynamics but it ran out of steam half way through the run.

No pleasure to be derived from this blatant scam and dishonest rip-off of the viewers' emotions which are almost more important than our wallets at this point

I feel almost as abused as Deana will when she finally hears what the foul cretin mouthed about her to his henchmen and apologists

The time has come for me to pull out of this miseryfest now, I fear - nothing but sickness and anger remains for me and I have more rewarding and productive ways to spend my life
Yes, it does seem quite a waste of our time and our energy this year doesn't it? Very disappointing!!!!

Maybe if people are going to continue to watch they should just stop voting and not give them their hard earned money! Viewers need to make a stance!

I am just glad that I went on holiday for nearly two weeks and missed the nasty rant of Conors about Deana!

I'm sort of glad I watched.

If only to be able to say it is my least favourite series.

Utterly dreadful housemates, abysmal rule breaking continually ignored and completely forgettable tasks.

This series will be remembered as the year when BB finally lost its remaining charm.
