It may be seen as a positive or a negative. Positive because usually on Channel 5 (regular and CBB), they try and fill in the HL show with tasks so we don't just see people sitting bored, however this year has given people a lot to talk about. The negatives is that some tasks are fun and we get to see other sides of HMs competitiveness etc..

Excluding launch tasks...

CBB8 has 11 tasks.

CBB9 had 12 tasks

CBB10 had 11 tasks

CBB11 had 14 tasks

CBB12 had 13 tasks

CBB13 had 15 tasks

CBB14 had 13 tasks

CBB15 so far has had 5 tasks. With just a week and a half to go, it doesn't look like there will be more than 8.

For me lack of tasks is a big negative. It's managed to divide the groups further, there's much less of a fun aspect to Celeb BB and I like to see some fun not constant fights and drama. Lazy production team

BB trying to deal with all the arguments in the house!

They will have had more tasks on standby but they don't need to use them when they've already got a HL show's worth of insanity every day! There's always the chance that they haven't shown us some small tasks they have done, just so they could fit more of the kickoffs into the HLs.
