I've really, really got into the whole BB USA thing due to it being shown on E4 over here and I'm interested in watching other series on YouTube.

Which series would you recommend? Which was the most entertaining?

Please help.

EDIT: I also managed to watch some of the fourth series and remember the 'Ex Factor' thing going on... I wasn't a major fan, so that's out of the equation.

I've only seen BB7 -BB9.

I enjoyed them all very much. I'd say BB8 is really good, but others didnt seem to like it as much as other series.

I think you would enjoy them all, but BB4 was the one I liked least.

BB3, BB6, BB7 and BB8 are amongst my favourites, but watch as many as you can, as they are all entertaining.

BB7 should be the last one to watch really because its all stars and most of them were not as good as they were in their original series.

BB6 No question.
I completely agree. It inspired the most loathing of house guests in me of any of the seasons but unless you saw the live feeds on that one you wouldn't have any idea how heinous some of those folks were. Still, it was the most exciting season that I saw.

It's so hard to say really with most of them as I enjoyed something from each one (well, most of them anyway). I loved the first as it was fresh, they were still feeling out what they had to do. Everything was a surprise for us and I loved the 'strike' LOL.
The second was excellent, with the puppet master himself, his arrogance was hilarious, Justin getting kicked out was shocking initially, but remains one of the best seasons.
The 3rd was memorable due to Marcellas foolish veto move and the fact that due to her Diary Room confessions, Danielle lost the win and it changed it for the rest of the seasons, the jury would no longer see anything more than the edited show and especially no DR chats.
The 4th was just not that great. It did have some memorable characters, even though Erika wasn't really one of them. Still trying to figure out how she made all stars. This season was the creation of the Dream Team, ok, don't laugh out loud LOL Alison is the greatest floater of all time, but her lies stopped her from being the winner and this led to one of the most useless contestants winning the money. Yet another housemate got kicked, Scott and the jury actually shunned the 2 finalists and told them their votes were reluctant as they had to vote for someone and after seeing everything, had lost respect for both of them. It was quite a chilly final show LOL
The 5th, the Project DNA with Cowboy snivelling and snuffling through most of his Dr sessions. Then there was Jase and Holly, sat in the bath tub whilst they painted each others nails LOL. It was an exciting show though as the HOH went from one to the other and back dooring was pretty run of the mill in this one. the twin twist was pretty funny, especially Jase's face LOL
The 6th, oh Lordy, brought us Kaysar, Janie, Howie and James, but unfortunately also brought us Cappy Cappy Cappy Cappy and Maggie and Yvette. Yet another disappointing final, even though the shows were pretty tense. We had the Sovereign Six versus the Nerd Herd. Also another tense final. Had to laugh when Eric (Cappy) tried to cast aspersions over Kaysar's character and he was booed so loudly, he shut up LOL. Maggie actually received death threats when she went back to work. Some people take these things way too seriously LOL
The 7th, All-stars. Loved it loved it, but some of them came back with bigger heads and pre-formed alliances. The best part of this show in 5 words.......Chill Town Diary Room Sessions.....bring bring.... LOL
The 8th, way different than any of the others I'd seen. So shocked over Dick's behaviour, and so surprised he made it to the final, but was the best choice out of the 2 to win as he had played a better game and at the end of the day, that's what it's all about.
I would start at season 2 and work your way up as you can see how it's changed and developed. Unfortunately, you can't get season 1 anywhere unless you know someone who recorded it as they didn't realise how big a deal it was going to be. You can't even get it on DVD, too bad really.
Oh, Llama John, after you've finished these, start on Survivor, you won't be sorry

I've been watching BB6 after BB9 started over here and I think it's much better. The house is so divided and you find yourself really rooting for certain people...go for that! It's all on youtube, too.

If you're watching BB7, you're going to see the chill town DR's in their context. They're not as funny if you don't get the story that's going with them. Hope you enjoy it. I have to say that I absolutely love Janie, she is one of the best players in BB history and the woman is drop dead gorgeous, I'm so jealous

Thanks for all your help, guys and gals. BB6 seems to be a popular choice, but after reading the HUGE post from conmarcas3, I think I'll start with BB2 if I can find it.

Thanks, again.

BB6 and BB3. But don't watch BB7 without watching as many of BB2-BB6 as possible, especially not the Americas Vote episode

My apologies. I only gave the game away for season 3 (which was known if you had seen all stars, which from what I've read, most people,have) and last year. That is common knowledge who the winner was. I never mentioned the winner of any other season

BB6 is really good, but really overrated. I enjoyed it a lot, but enjoyed BB8 more. Maybe it was because I watched BB8 in real time, and BB6 a year after it had aired...so I already knew the outcome. Maybe it was also because I just didn't have a favourite that series. I think Janelle is ridiculously overrated, but she was much worse in BB7, where she just turned into the worst player in the history of the show

Howie was just vile. And I didn't get the Maggie hate. She was a bit cold, but that's about it. And Ivette was just comical.

BB8 is much better, aside from the ending...and the church of Jen getting evicted when it did.

If youd watched BB6 in real time and watched live feeds youd understand the maggie and ivette hate.

My take on it was Ivette was seriously deranged,i mean in a big brother house who else would make a shrine and to cappy of all people,you could understand maggies loyalty as it was her partner but ivette?
Howie was hilarious at times and did to april what dick did to many hms.
I dont think janelle is over rated,but in BB7 she was screwed up and played a really poor game,but come on she was not the worst player in history..look at marcellos with the veto,then you have mike,amber and jameka ( bb8 ),cappy in bb6,and proberbly a dozen others that played a terrible game.

In this season id say the majority are playing a terrible game,you have josh trying to be a clone of dick,sharon who is just doing nothing in the hope of flying under the radar to get her to the final,and most of the others dont seem to understand what an alliance means because they all basically bow down to whoever is hoh.
