Just seen last night and any bit of colour, fun and enjoyment looks like its totally gone.

How much bad feeling do they want in the house and between the housemates/ex housemates..

The lateesha bedroom crew have fallen and gone along with every big brother trick to create nastiness with gusto and Big Brother is squeezing every drop out of it....Ryan has been the perfect guinea pig and obviously doesn't care who he hates or hurts anymore..If it wasn't for the older ones to calm them down it would have ended up like Lord of the Flies..

Andy, Jason and Jayne have tried to rationalise the mess and you can see its taking a toll on them. Evelyne looks like she's shot to pieces as she's questioning her own morals compared to the others who obviously don't care.

I agree, BB used to be fun to watch, it had FAR more people watching it then too, so I wish they'd learn. BRING BACK THE FUN!

It's crap isn't it. Far far too much emphasis placed on conflict. It's contrived. It's relentless. It's not fun to watch so I'm glad it's been cut short. I couldn't watch this depressing shite for any length of time.

If there weren't just 2 episodes left I wouldn't even bother seeing it out. After the final I can't see me watching another BB. Naturally occuring conflict is fine but we need fun too. There's little light relief nowadays.

The modern day production team are buffoons of the highest level, they couldn't even run a tuck shop let be in charge of a TV show. The fact it's dropped in viewing figures very dramatically from a decade to now says it all. It's all too predictable now and samey.

It really is Cringe Worthy Stuff......This is my Last Big Brother I'm sorry to say, last night's episode was quite enough for me. I'll watch it to the end now, surely it can't get any worse.

Who the hell wants to watch arguing every day for 50 days ( 60+ days usually ) ? They really do believe that seeing this stuff every single day is entertaining, it isn't, it's boring and messed up.

When you listen to BBBOTS after every show, you can see that they don't just find it good to watch, they actually find it funny too. Even when a HM goes mad you have the moron behind the mic in the Diary Room trying to be sarcastic and funny. Everything is one big joke to them, they don't care about a HM's mental state at all. It's like the aim is to mentally torture them from start to finish. If anybody enjoys that kind of thing then they must be a little bit funny in the head, it's not normal.

the production team have all the creativity of a brick or an acorn

it's either gunge or conflict, or gunge and conflict combined, ad nauseam
You forgot disgusting food that makes the HM's gag. they seem to love that as much as gunge and conflict

These last few episodes have not been entertaining so I'm going to record tonight and the final tomorrow and then skim through them, will probably take about 10 minutes but at least I will feel as though I've seen it through to the exceptionally bitter end

I can't wait for this series to end, feels like watching paint dry now.
I would rather watch an hour of spin the bottle every night, than all the awful tasks we have had recently and outside info, how many of who said what who is the least etc have we had...!

They are forcing them to show their true selves as they are all acting

It's like watching Rosie some times with the acting that goes on

This series was never fun anyway .

One thing that grates for me is that the Big Brother voice is often weak, shrill and generally not authoritative at all.

Marcus sounds more scary than some of those people they hire to speak to the housemates. I don't think BB should sound like a friendly therapist or like someone about to have a panic attack because of how intimidating the contestants are.

I find it sad that at the beginning of every episode we have to be told beware of bad language, Conflicts etc.

100% agree. It used to be about the interaction between interesting people, isolated in the House, with BB ruling over them. It was part of the gåme to deal with the intrusion of Big Brother. But now Big Brother is a cruel tyrant, a bully! Either that or an incompetent fool! It's no longer interesting, just dull (at best) and deeply disturbing (at worst).

As soon as she got a pass to the final I stopped watching. I don't even know how long ago that was now; I can't stand all these hateful people and I don't want to watch them bickering and rowing.

Look at Jason - I do not get the feeling he's acting. I think he's genuinely broken from sheer terror of Charlie and what she may do next.
