Just fed up to be honest as there are a lot more interesting characters in the house and I want to listen to their stories, not just watching an attention seeking bully that BB are encouraging.

They are going too far this time as bear is just ruining the whole show. Do they actually think we the viewers find his behaviour entertaining.

I taped BB the last few nights and not watched as yet as I see from the forum that it is all about bear in every single programme. I don't even know why the other celebs remain in the house as they all know that bear will get all the air time. It is just so sad but I think even the celeb BB has now had it's day if this is the best they can offer.

I've not watched the last 2 nights, The main reason I've not bothered is Bear.

I have found the Olympics a much better watch.

Well, it's up to you.

People always tend to make these threads in the first 2 weeks. Truth is that as more people leave, the others will come forward. Already it looks like the others are getting more airtime.

Fair enough but you really should watch the last half hour of last night's just to see Lewis make a right tit out of his self

*Waves to reader* Hiya you! Hope you're keeping well xx

Know how you feel. It always seems to be the same now where one dominates the entire show and we get to see so little of the others
I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of the airtime if I was the producer!!
Unfortunately I'll keep watching though until they find the antidote ........

agreed

it's also worth watching it for when Bear makes a total tit of himself every couple of days, either through blubbing about being nominated or about the scary man in the diary room

***** will always fall in the end, and the bigger the ****, the harder the fall

I agree, the Americans are having more say now as is Sam and Ricky too!

Don't you know by now, the producers don't give a toss about the viewers. We pay their wages but they enjoy the aggro they cause . It's the other HMs who should be p....d off.

I hear ya OP.

Over the years my friends have stopped watching, I'm the last one left. Last year they were like 'are you still watching BB?' and I reluctantly said yes. This year I'm too embarrassed to even admit I'm watching it, hence joining the forum.

I guess some other FMs are more desensitised to the kind of behaviour currently on show but to be honest I find all the negativity and deliberate provocation depressing. I don't get any sense of joy from watching the show any more and find myself skipping through more and more of it.

The only 'good' bit was the 'classic moment' of the series where the asshat showed what a pussy he really is.

This isn't entertainment for me, it's a car wreck. The only reason I'm still watching is because of a morbid curiosity to see how bad it's going to get. I have a tiny glimmer of hope that Stephen/Lewis will be gone soon and the show can actually start as far as I'm concerned.

It's sad really, to see a show you once enjoyed sink so far.

We don't really, they get most of their money from advertisers and PP. They don't have to please their viewing public they just need as many viewers as possible to justify the prices they charge to display products.

Car crash tv gets more viewers than a well thought out and structured reality show.

Hiya love, hope you are well.x

BB17 was really good and they finished it early for the bear show, absolute madness.

This forum and all different opinions and also some really great FM's like yourself moosie, has always been one of the great things and very much adds to the BB experience for me, but I now don't read the threads that mention bear which is ridiculous as I love this forum and enjoy reading everyone's opinions.

I want to watch everyone in the house and not just one person who is constantly fighting for every bit of air time they can get. I just don't get what the producers are doing with ths series at all.
I will switch off until either bear leaves or he has a task where he has to sit in a straight jacket and a gag for a week,lol, but I will keep up to date with all the rest of the the other HM's by reading the posts on here, that is if any of them are finally going to be shown.

If all the people who dislike Bear switch off then Bear will win the show.

I do agree with the OP but I will carry on watching as I like to finish things I've started watching lol.

I can kinda see why people find him entertaining, but I find it all fake and put on for the TV and atm it's just the other house mates trying to put up with him instead of seeing different personalities.

Hopefully the Bear show will end soon and we can finally see the other housemates be themselves and find out more about them.

Its the Bear show, and it is ruining the series for me. Although i will keep watching it, in the hope that things change,

I do sense the similarities to when Helen Woods won a few years ago. I hope i am wrong.

I understand completely. BB is excruciating when its focus is so much on that baby bell-end.

I'm in agreement. I can't stand his voice, his face, his immaturity, his attitude, his behaviour and the obsession the production team have with him and Lewis is sickening. I'm bored with the series, most of the time I mute it because of Bear.

Until he's gone, I'm out!
