More normal people don't make good TV, and besides those normal people don't apply for this show anymore

Even if they did, they would be condemned as boring before they got through the door

It wouldn't be BBUK if that didn't happen

Those morons will boo anything young and female and with a bit of self confidence

Yes, but there's a difference between confidence and arrogance.

If someone comes across as full of themselves then it stands to reason it's going to wind up the yobs in the audience.

BB would not be the same without them.
BB2 Brian,Helen,Ama,Stuart and throughout each series.
BB5,6,7 had a huge amount of stereotypes and proved to be the best series.
The best HMs have largely been stereotypes or OTT characters.

I have no problem with stereotypes because they all show you that they are not just the camp gay or the angry black woman..every person may fit into pigeon holes on the surface but when you look deeper they usually are much more than their surface personality..part of BB was finding those new levels,sadly the killing of the feed by ch4 and continued by 5 put a stop to that along with the fast paced editing but the initial concept that hms are stereotyped should not be any more concerning than the fact that tv reality relies on stereotypes,ott,and insular characters to feed the storyline..a storyline that has always been part of BB despite the claims by some that BB never used to be about storylines

To be fair that's taken out of context. He meant that there are HM's who may seem like stereotypes but turn out to be different.

He said "although we've got the typical stereotypes, they don't fit the bracket they're in. So, for example, a young, pretty girl might not be what she seems."

So the young, pretty girl might not be a young, pretty girl?

It's hard to see what else it might mean. "Young, pretty girl" isn't much of a "stereotype" on its own, so the only way not to fit the bracket is not to be young, or not to be pretty, or not to be a girl.

Why wouldn't it be better to have HMs who "are much more than their surface personality" and also aren't stereotypes on the surface? Especially now that there's no live feed.

I don't think BBs 5, 6, and 7 had a huge amount of stereotypes, really; and I don't think bb6 was one of the best series.

When there has been a stereotype who has more at some deeper lever -- bb5's Marco might be an example -- the "more" often fails to make them much better as a HM (with Marco again an example).

The deluded Intellect/Entrepreneur

"I run my own successful business ... I've visited 'X' amount of countries, therefore, I know everything and you know nothing" - type person .. Producer's project.

The Right of Passage housemate

Young, naive housemate, who is lacking in confidence and usually believe's taking part in BB will resolve this and boost their street cred no end. (Your non-existent career ends here) Producer's baby.

The 'Outrageous' one

Claims to be bat shit crazy with years of life experience and usually has a weird hobby, when, realistically, they are just an ordinary person like me or you who likes nothing more than to sit down and have a nice cup of tea! - that's where the craziness usually ends.

The 'Nice' Housemate

Are these specimens still in existence? I would like to think so and that we have at least one human being in the house. Tamara from BB15 was extremely pleasant, so, obviously, she wasn't right for the show at all and had 'Week 1' written all over her poor thing .. Producer's most-hated.

The Bitch

The house is never in short supply of these these days, however, it seems that a gutter upbringing and a potty mouth will secure the heady position of 'Top Dog'. These creatures will claw their way to the top and tear apart anyone who gets in their way. Producer's favourite.

Dumbass Mannequin Sidekick Housemate

The Bitch's token sheep and follower recruiter. Airhead. Neither use nor ornament other than to agree with 'The Bitch'.

The Droid

They can't afford 'Titan' again so this programmed American will do ..

The screecher

This thing will strip paint quicker than actual paint stripper with their exaggerated, forced dialect ..

She said she hated animal rights and vegetarians. She also hated the unemployed.

I don't think that sounds like a nice person...She also said that she thought Jale looked thick.

All talk and all front - as are most of them before entering. She appeared extremely nice and normal on BOTS upon her exit - like most of them do.

Tamara's only mistake was befriending dimwit Winston, she may have survived longer if it hadn't been for him as she seemed the only fun housemate last year, and that's saying something.
