Should we reward bad behaviour?

Bear has been a major talking point this series I agree, but should he be voted as the winner?

Bear is narcissistic. Bear is a sociopath. Bear is a bully. Bear is antagonistic. Bear has no boundaries. Should he win because he is all of these things?

People say that the series wouldn't have been worth watching without Bear... I disagree, other HM's would have stepped up to plate. The days of 'Big Brother Bore 4' are very long ago.

So is everyone voting for Bear to win, basically saying 'it's ok to do/act as Bear has and we applaud him for it'?

Bear has helped make this an entertaining series for me, yes, BUT he is a thoroughly dislikable person with no morals, no standards and no boundaries.

And for that... he is NOT my winner!

the crux of the question here is the definition of "reward". We all know that Bear craves attention - good or bad is irrelevant, as long as it's attention - so for many, being crowned the winner because of acting the way Bear has wouldn't be viewed as a good thing... but then if you feel like that, you'd be unlikely to act in that way in the first place.

Come Friday, Bear will think he's beaten the system. "Look at me, I'm on TV and I WON", and just like Marc/k/q from a previous CBB he will think he's the producer's darling and TV stardom awaits....

and just like Marc/k/q he will be dropped like a stone and very soon his only career will be begging for attention on social media.

In Bear's eyes though, winning CBB will still be viewed as a reward... the reality is the producers just used and abused him.

Well he's not really all those things. He's just an annoying irritant who's chosen to be an antagonistic t*wat for RTV gain. Some people enjoy it, others find it unwatchable, and others, like me, find it, on the whole, somewhere between annoying and coma-inducing.

His win, if he wins, will be meaningless in the scheme of things and really not a reflection of anything.

he's already been rewarded, with his £12k, he'll be able to buy some new Sergio and Ellesse tracksuits

I think it's sad that he is tipped to win... let's hope that people, other than those supporting him here, will see sense and not reward him at all.

I like Bear and happy he is in the final, If he win's he win's I am not bothered now, but it will be down to the amount of votes he gets and nothing to do with any threads asking whether he should win or not.

I don't think this show could ever work if winner's have to fulfil some kind of criteria. It lives and dies on the ability of viewers to vote for the hm that they found the most entertaining. If the majority find that to be bear this year then so be it.
