It is just so tedious and boring. I want real conflict, not fake, force fed, pantomime acting by Jenna and Farrah, who actually think they are making good TV. It is just bland.

We need villains, but villains who aren't really aware they are villains, like Grace (BB7) or Adele (BB3) or the Jade/Danielle/Jo trio, or even Julie Goodyear.

They are the same reason "Speidi" (rolls eyes) were so tedious and made the viewers turn off in their droves, I think I left that series with about 10 days to go.

The weird and compelling thing about Perez and Hopkins were they were both as vile as each other, you knew they despised and wound each other up so badly that it was enjoyable to watch, it was win/win. Had either of them not been there, I think the other would have become tedious.

James Jordan didn't really become that tedious as he was smacked down virtually at every turn by Busey and the wonderful Mr Audley Harrison.

Farrahs endless stream of f bombs was grating. She lacks the brains and class to argue effectively so just relies on effing constantly.

Adele wasn't a villain. Her only crime was disliking Saint Jonny. She didn't have much time for Sophie's psychic nonsense either but other than that she did nothing wrong.

Grace really was awful but I liked her in Sky's Circus thing.

Other than that I agree with you

She is so boring. Day in and day out the same ranting and cursing. I don't think she's quite sane.

Yes I suppose that is true, would you class George Galloway as a villain? I don't necessarily think I would, totally deluded and cringe inducing but not sure he would fall into the 'villain' category, a bit like the mesmeric Jackie Stallone, who was an absolute hoot from start to finish in her 3 or 4 day duration. She has to be one of the top 3 most greatest housemates.

She couldn't even string a coherent sentence together in the most recent episode.

I'm so sick of this series with these idiots that just scream and shout words that don't mean anything. Farrah is the dumbest human I've ever seen on BB. She's the very definition of stupid. Her DR BS was laughable. I wish they had removed her from the house so not to have to look at her popping cod-eyes again.

I usually know what Jenna is talking about or the point she's trying to make, but she's making a fool of herself tonight. All that silly Hollywood film street talk... tragic.

I like the villains to be people who are fun to watch, the type you just can't believe what you're seeing. Like Bette Lynch who thought she was the greatest thing ever through the door. Not like these "look at me being horrible and listen how loud I can shout in this other bitche's face.." morons.

They lack self awareness they do not see or accept themselves as villains. They will project anything negative towards them on others and place the blame elsewhere. The world's out to get them.......

No your just unpleasant and naturally people won't take to you

I'd rather watch them have explosive showdowns than play footsie and sing kumbaya every episode. And no, none of them were acting.

Pete Burns was a true villain, mostly cause of his wit, and also for the simple fact that he didn't give a toss. The fact that he looked pretty bizarre and intimidating was also beneficial.

I would class George Galloway as a villain.

He was one of the three men who bullied Jodie Marsh.

I would just like to see someone stir it up in there between Jenna and Farrah to the point where they end up fighting and BB chucks them both out. Now that would be entertainment.

Surely it's their lack of self-awareness that makes them outgoing and fiery, the Brits are very self-aware and guarded because they know the show, the Americans don't.

Imagine how boring it would be, though, if we just had the Brits to watch.

That's what I feel. It's all going round and round and becoming more boring.

I blame the editing in some ways too. There are many more people in that house who must be doing other things. Who thinks the ravings of Farrah, Jenna and scoop are the most interesting things going on.
