I know there are going to be some people who read this thread who will probably think "well don't f*cking watch then" but all I'm saying is that some series of CBB, whether there have been love triangles, or fights or removals or whatever, the GAME and FUN aspect was never lost. I know there has been the gala, the guessing game, the ball etc but I can't help feeling that all the fun has gone or never was in this particular series. It's almost a bit like car crash tv where we know what we are tuning in to, which is either how far Perez can go or who's fighting with who.

It's tense and horrible and I actually forgot it was a game. They should be having much more fun especially since they're in there for up to a month. It's a shame really.

I suspect all these rows, arguments and scheming happen because the housemates are bored bored bored. You're right. Where are the tasks, the games, the fun. They're not even amusing themselves, just gossiping and backstabbing. No wonder problems arise. CBB, you're pants. Get your finger out!

There's no room in the hilights for tasks, so why bother spending money on them? They never show them properly anyway.

In the past they've had tasks every day, but the only reason for that has been because the housemates didn't make enough good footage for the show on their own. This lot do.

I thought the theme was fairytale? I haven't seen much of those sort of tasks except for maybe one.

I never said it was "fun", it's riveting imo and obviously people are hooked. "Any tasks have been forgettable", well, they have only had one shopping task and then obviously they will show the task today tomorrow. The task looks fun, a lot of fun moments.

Also, people moaned during the last few series, "why is there so many tasks, don't they have enough footage?" well, the reason we haven't had many tasks because they are creating their own dramas this year. In other years they needed to do a task and throw a party everyday for footage. This year they don't.

According to Ben Frow in an email, they had more tasks to be done, but because of the drama, they didn't need to. So when the drama calms down, they will introduce more tasks.

I find most tasks boring, pointless and painfully obviously done on the cheap. If the tasks are going to remain low budget affairs then I'm glad they're few and far between.

We don't even get to see them sitting down and having a MEAL together like we have in,past series. Nor do we know who the "cooks" are..... I'm assuming it's that jumped up two faced cow Nadia cos of Masterchef and it's another bandwagon for her to jump on but again this is just assuming.... In other series it's been lightheartedly mentioned that so and so is the chef and a great cook and the HM's would thank them for dinner, but not here.

The series has be disappointing cos BB has focused everything around the arguing.

Watched a few seasons of Big Brother Australia recently and it was shocking how much better the tasks were compared to the crap we get.

We found out WHY the tasks are gone: Perez.

He dictated to the show a condition that they couldn't limit his food.

They could have had competitions for some power position, perhaps, but all of the unplanned for bootings and leavings has gotten in the way of that.

They should give them a 24 hr task and keep them all up, can you imagine how wound up and angry they would get if they could get any more wound up and angry that is.....

Oh ok thanks Krom....

That is so unfair, especially on other HM's
