Only just got into BBUS this year, really enjoying it.
Without spoilers, what are people's favourite seasons? How does BB8 fare relative to other seasons? Plus, is BB1 more or less the UK format, and the HOH format starts from season 2 onwards? |

The impression I get is that the Live Feeders aren't enjoying it as much as a couple other seasons but the TV show itself, is well liked. Like I say, that's just my impression though, so I could be wrong.Quote:

Yep. This is quote from the Wikipedia article on BB US that explains the main twists of each season so far: Season 1: The premise of the show -- America watching in on a group of people -- is introduced. Season 2: The new format is introduced -- a Head of Household nominates two houseguests and the other houseguests vote on which nominee is evicted. Season 3: The Power of Veto is introduced, allowing houseguests to change the Head of Household's nominations. Season 4: The X-Factor - Five of the houseguests are joined by their ex-boyfriends or ex-girlfriends. Season 5: Project DNA: Do Not Assume - A set of identical twins secretly play as one houseguest, switching places intermittently in secret. Two other houseguests find out that they are related. Season 6: The Summer of Secrets - Each houseguest has a secret partner. If a set of partners makes it to the Final 2, the winner wins $1,000,000 and the runner up receives $250,000. Season 7: All Stars - 14 former houseguests get to play the game again. Season 8: Six of the houseguests learn they will be playing against enemies from their past. One houseguest, known as America's Player, must perform certain tasks given by viewers of the show for financial rewards. Hope that helps.

BB6 is very good, and I think most people would say it was their favourite. Definitely better than our current season.
I'd also reccomend watching BB5 and BB7. |

My favourite has to be BB6. The house was so divided that year and some of of things that happened were so funny ("Rachel your so beautiful. Maggie your such a bitch" lol). I also think this year is up there with the best. It's been a lot better than All Stars imo. I'd also recommend watching BB2 if you can find it. Although the format was a bit different (no veto comps) it was still a great season and had the great Dr. Will.

BB4 is often said as one of the worst, but it being the first series I saw, I hold a special place for it

Yeah apparently BB4 was the worst but it was the only series I've seen other than the current one. I really liked it
Does anyone know any sites like veoh.com that have episodes from that series?

Plus all the housemates are big characters and are great to watch. 3. BB3 - Had a really great cast in it. 4. BB2 - Dr. Will made this season a great one. 5. BB7 - Anticlimatic after all the hype as all the players didn't strategise that well and were basically being foolish through the whole season. 6. BB5 - An ok season, but not up their with the others. 7. BB4 - I don't really know why, but I didn't seem to enjoy this season as much as the others. Maybe it's because I thought the twist was a bad one originally. 8. BB1 - This proved that normal BB doesn't work very well over in the US. I'm glad it wasn't a success, otherwise we'd be without the great version we have today. |

BB4 was a little dull in places, but one thing I liked was that it probably had the bitchiest diary-room moments of any season, with HM's like Alison and Jun.
