There will be an office right now, somewhere in Channel 5, devising shows like "Teddy Bear's Picnic", wherein Stephen Bear goes on camping holidays "Grin and Bear It" where Bear is followed by cameras embarking on a standup career. A star in the making - which is why, as Heavy D astutely pointed out in his pasta and rice throwing turmoil, the cute cheeky bastard is allowed to do it and the fat cheeky bastard ain't.
Blame the producers for Stephen W.A.C Bear

By implication then the phone vote is rigged?

Now now, let's not start to get bitchy.
Everyone who hates the new big brother and Bear still watches which I think is bizarre really. Why do you expect BB to change their show if you keep watching and discussing it?
This is the first CBB where I've stopped watching the HLS. I blame the producers for bear particularly but also Lewis Marnie and Chloe. These people have no talent or ability other than to behave badly, expose their bodies, set up fauxmances and have or pretend to have sex. I accept that the reality shows I despise are liked by many and I think this is the audience the producers are catering for now. If that's the case I will happily wave BB/CBB bye bye and leave it to those who appreciate this kind of thing.

It doesn't matter if we watch it or not, that's not how the ratings work. They also don't count the threads on here.
They literally don't care what we think, as long as they're making headlines they can justify higher advertising costs.
That's all it is now.

See, one of your posts was quite reasonable but you go and ruin it with this^^^^
You sound like you're deliberately taunting FMs on here which is what your hero does, isn't it? Very uncool.

I think you'll be disappointed, most people are past caring and don't give a shit!

I said in another thread today that he's welcome to win it, in fact he deserves to win this ugly, contrived, grubby little series.
It's been so full of misery & fake drama I can think of no one more suited to be crowned the figurehead of it all.

Its all just banter, I've taken much more than I've given. Also which post were you referring to?

Lot's of us are just keeping up with it on this forum. We're not actually watching it anymore.

Yet if I was to say anything positive about Bear, I would get people telling me Im wrong/stupid. It works both ways.

Bad mistake mate, people aren't allowed to like Bear on here. Expect Lee and his minions to tell you that you're stupid.

Not in my world they don't. I know quite a few casual viewers who aren't on this forum, they find him repulsive too.

Honestly, there's literally four or five comments that are repeated over and over. This is one of them and has been responded too time and time again.
Repetitive behaviours, intended to antagonise.... and you're a Bear supporter you say? Funny that.

He has been kept in twice, so some people obviously like him. (I don't vote btw)

He's back in the room! He took a bit of time off to recuperate but he is Back. On. The. Case.
(movie announcer voice)
And this time..... he's got back up!
Batten down the hatches, lets see what brilliantly articulated rebuttals he comes up with!
Lol, seriously though. Like Stephen all you like buddy, do your thing. Everyone will have their own opinion of you and the other bear supporters.
Like I said above, defending Bear consists of 4 or 5 lines at most which get repeated to death, much like the antics of your star player and it gets boring to deal with. Much like in the house, dealing with you guys is a war of attrition.
Some days I can be bothered, some days not so much so make hay buddy old boy!

Indeed.
It will be a hollow victory if he wins this year.
The most boring, predictable, grubby, series ever and he's the king of it. Yeh, well done Bear.
