At least it's keeping the decent characters in though. I bet hardly anyone votes these days so that's why they mess about with it so much. The public make little difference and are less attached - probably cos the show has been on so long.
If Jade goes what we got to look forward to? Danny and Sarah cuddling up? Nick picking his nose and playing in the bath with Joel? Pie face? The twins sitting there like gargoyles? |

Well you have just proven my point really, that some of the fans are hypocritical. You would complain if there was a fix to remove your favourite, but would be ok if they fixed it to make sure she stayed.
I am all for Jade staying, i think the way she has been treated on BBBOTS is very unfair. But i want it to be done the right way. I wouldn't sacrifice the credibility of the show for one HM. I feel like the public simply cannot be trusted to make the right choices. I like that Big Brother is stepping in at this point. |

I really really love this twist. I didn't think C5 had it in them!

This is really the first big twist to the series, I think the rants would be more warranted if we were 7 weeks down the line and this happened.
Sega, I take it you are not happy? |

And if they fixed it so that Jade was up for eviction you would be complaining.
They engineered it for Jade to receive multiple noms and be up, they couldn't have made that any clearer and as has been said on here all week they were obviously up to something, it was obvious Jade would somehow be saved after what they did to her. The whole house switch is wrong though, but I do like it

Utter nonsense. It's actually the complete opposite. BB are saving the show because so many moronic viewers are unwilling to. The "Highlights" were heading towards Sarah massaging Danny's head every night and trying to cook up a fake romance to get some mag deals. The twins moaning about food. Eileen wandering around like a patient from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest etc..
BB have finally gotten wise and took more control. The moronic public has had their period of control and largely ruined it. Now it's BB's time. Suck it up, bitches! |

They kicked out two housemates without a public vote last year (Marlon and Danielle.) I don't expect them to ever stick to any kind of "fairness" ever again.

Can't be bothered to get worked up over the latest farce in the perpetual farce of BB.
I just hope they do another quick twist and make Harriet safe. It's way too early for her to go. |

I love this twist if it saves Jade. That is all I care about at this point.
They wouldn't have had to save Jade if they hadn't brought back vote to evict - the public would've done it for them. Which was, supposedly, the point of the show in the first place. |

I know I did. Think about it. It is common sense. If you like someone, you are going to want them to stay. You are going to be annoyed if anything interferes with their progress. Know what I mean? Conversely, you are going to feel the way you feel if you look at it from the opposite end.
I feel like the public simply cannot be trusted to make the right choices. I like that Big Brother is stepping in at this point. If it was my favourite of course i would want them to stay, but for fair reasons. Nick is my favourite, he wouldn't have gone this week but i didn't want him to be saved from going up for eviction, that would make me a total hypocrite. Let's look at this way. If my football team was fixing it so that the refs made sure my team won, i wouldn't want my team to get away with it, it wouldn't be right. That is what BB are doing here, they are fixing it to make sure that Jade stays, that isn't fair on fans of other HM's. |

They may be decent characters from your point of view, but what about the Harriet fans, the fans of the twins etc etc ? Yes, they do have fans. The people in charge of this show are basically saying that they don't matter. It's the kind of thing that would make people turn off. Let's flip this and say Jade was the one put up for eviction, Jade fans would be very annoyed. And just like with Ashleigh fans last year, they would be shouting fix. |

I guess I am. I want excitement. It's a game show. The public have shown themselves to have no idea what they are doing when it comes to preserving the entertainment of the show. I don't want to watch a boring series.
What has driven fans away though is manipulation and meddling. |

I have never seen one series die just because a HM was evicted. If Jade or anyone else went, things would still happen.
What has driven fans away though is manipulation and meddling. I don't understand why - it is a game show. It is not as if the British public are the most fair people in the world either. It is also not as if everybody is not a hypocrite in some capacity. We all pick and choose in life. |

I think they are gonna put Danny and Sarah in a secret room.
So in a way I agree with you Sega, that will ruin the series. |

I am not just talking about Jade though. I am talking about previous seasons of the show where the best characters are evicted by the short-sighted public. Then we later moan about how boring the show is. Can't have it both ways, and cannot be trusted, so I'd rather BB step in and preserve the entertainment. It is not just Jade up this week. Many of the houses more interesting characters are. I am just happiest about her being safe.

At the moment the whole Jade issue dominates the house but if Jade leaves that lets other stories develop.
If the BB producers crowbar the Jade Show in we get a continuance of the Jade Show but we dont get the stories that would naturally develop if Jade were to leave. Do we really just want the Jade show until the end. |

I remember a few days ago a thread come up saying that they think that this year Channel 5 have got it right............they couldn't have been further away from the truth. This series is going exactly the same way as the last series. Once again we are seeing the show meddled with and fixed to the point where the show losses all credibiltiy.
The latest "twist" has saved every HM that was nominated and everyone that recieved the fewest noms are now up. They have fixed it to save the biggest characters from going. They knew Jade was going to go if she was up, it wouldn't have even been close, but because they want arguments, they fixed it so she would stay. It would have been more acceptable if they had told us they were doing this before nominations took place. But let's be honest, we all know that this wasn't even planned before nominations took place, this was planned when they realised who was up for eviction. The thing that has annoyed me more than anything about this twist is the fans reaction to it, especially on here. People on here have been moaning and groaning for years for the way BB is being handled on Channel 5, but the majority think that this "twist" is good. These same people moaned last year because BB let Helen get away with everything and made sure she got to the final, these same people moaned because Ashleigh was apparently being unfairly treated. The fans are almost as bad as the people in charge of this show. They are fine with any fix that takes place as long as it doesn't have a negative impact on their favourites or what they consider to be big characters. It's hypocritical and it says to the producers that they should never listen to any complaints the fans have of the show. Why bother listening to the fans when they are so hypocritical ? Rant over.
