Disregard for the fans? They saved BB from extinction by C4. Would you rather it remained cancelled
Yes, I wish they'd left it where C4 put it.

Imagine your favourite shop was Hotel Chocolat. The owners decided business isn't great any more it's sold. You go in one day and are confronted by a sales assistant who is rude and clearly bored. Your fave goodies have been replaced by cheap and nasty chocolates. The standard of hygiene in the shop has fallen. It's only open two day a week - 2pm to 5pm.

Would you be grateful Hotel Chocolat was still open or would you never go in there again because is was completely different now?

Out of the 5.3m that were happy to give the show a go, It would appear 73.6% would rather it was cancelled as they certainly aren't watching...

Are you writing a book called Bad BB Anologies?

You post so many it feels like we are getting a smeak preview.

Actually, yes I am

But it's true - people are saying that even though this BB is a complete travesty and extremely tedious crap, aired by a broadcaster who couldn't give a toss about the people watching, we should just be grateful anyway.

I either want proper BB or none, and I'm sure plenty of others feel the same. Channel 5 have always been a cheap and shabby little company - nothing has changed. Nothing will ever change.

Thats in your opinion.
So what you are saying is I don't like it so nobody else should, and if you do tough because I want to close it down.
Bit selfish

Great to see BB up 90k on last Tuesday's episode. Not a massive rise but a step in the right direction.

Not really going to plan for the whole "ratings will drop like a stone after week 1" brigade is it?

Well there wasn't much further to fall in all honesty, it had hit the bottom quite early on.

Doesn't change the fact that this thread would appear to have been wrong about something - again.

I agree.

Someone here said the show would never rate below one million.

They were wrong.

No, because it dropped like a stone during week 1 instead and has yet to recover.

If you're trying to imply that person was me, you are wrong. I asked someone WHY they thought that when they were saying that about 2 days in, since the spinoff shows had done 1m+. I didn't say I thought it was impossible at any point, so don't you dare put words in my mouth.

I don't even think Saturday's rating tells us much, especially given it's back up to 1.5 now. Channel 5 was plagued by technical problems in various parts of the country whilst the boxing was on and I think this affected their whole night. I don't expect it will be a regular thing.

This thread ????

I have seen many different opinions in this Thread about the ratings and why they are at the level they are, not just one single opinion voiced by all, are you saying they are all wrong

If you mean some people you should say that not lump everyone in together
