BB need to stick to a formula that has been tried and tested. It is extremely stupid to generate so much ill will on the part of the (small) viewing public. I think BB went down after BB4. I'm still watching though, but I don't know how much longer. I really don't want to get to know 4 new housemates at this stage of the game.

A bit extreme.... to save one HM and get rid of another. |

Putting people up for eviction who didn't even deserve to be up due to not getting the most nominations (Harriet got 0 nominations for a start and the rest didn't have enough to go up anyway) and then getting rid of them in a QUADRUPLE eviction on DAY 18. It's incredibly unfair that 3 people (1 would have to go anyway) are being robbed of a longer stay in the house because they want to put new housemates in (who I can guarantee will be what we have seen before, 3 boring people who will cruise until the annual double eviction before the final and the final itself and then 1 good one who will be evicted after a few short days in the house). I feel incredibly sorry for this year's housemates who've had to go through the audition process (Simon getting evicted after two hours, 3 of them going this week for no reason) to be turfed out with disregard - no doubt it'll be played down/treated like a joke on BOTS too when the evicted housemates are being interviewed and the poor sods have no idea what's happened.

I am trying to work out how it's a timebomb. Unless the production team are claiming that they have rewound time to before the noms and done the noms themselves.

I think it not only smacks of utter desperation, but utter incompetence.
I agree that BB has had some big problems with casting (lack of diversity etc). However, to my mind one of the biggest failings of the show is the constant meddling and interference by the producers: diary room discussions being played to the group; nominations being played to the group or undertaken face-to-face; tasks that involve the communication of public perceptions of housemates; tasks designed simply to cause fights; bizarre twists involving free passes to the final; etc etc. And in response to these issues, the producers decide to … interfere at a hitherto unknown scale! The producers don't seem to understand that drama, tension and interest doesn't just come from fighting between the HMs. And they don't seem to understand that if the public don't feel they have some control over the direction of the series (through the nominations process), they will give up on the show and/or stop voting. There may be issues with this year's cast, but it's really hard to make that assessment when the show is being executed in such a ham-fisted way. There's no point changing the characters if the scripts remain the same. |
