I have tried to sit down to watch the live feeds, but the enthusiasm isnt there, UK BB4 took alot out of me, and i just cant find the dedication to sit and watch these schemers talking about "The game", its rubbish.

Plus, its funny how we always want to see blossoming relationships in our Big brother, but when you actually see them its dull and boring, for example Justin and Dana, could those two please prize themselves off each other for a mintue or two.

Also, why are they all allowed into the HOH room with all the treats and everything, is HOH not just for the HOH?, it should be, why should the others enjoy it all.

Plus FOTH is very annoying, these things and for other reasons, im not going to bother watching it, anyone else feeling the same?.

What's most annoying about FOTH is their insistence on playing that damn Sims music.

TVDX, the HoH has control to lock the door whenever they want! They allow people into their space.

Different courses I suppose as I HATED our BB this year, I switched off after the double eviction, but I'm paying for the live feeds from the US I'm so addicted.

I never want to see budding relationships or sex, I like to see scheming and gameplay, arguments and tantrums, alliances and enemies.....I get all that from BBUS. The really good thing is I know there will be no knee jerk reaction from the public in voting off the interesting characters and leaving the nice, quiet ones in the house. The bad thing, I can't save my favourites.

Oh and Dana and Justin is all gameplay and wanting an ally in the house (with cuddles!)....look at what Dave did with Alison, he was prepared to do that with Dana but drew the line at Jun. What a charmer Neither Justin or Dana would look at each other twice outside the house, nor would Alislut and Nate.

I'm glad someone else is finding it hard to watch this. I am bored with all the gameplans, do they ever talk about anything else?

I agree with TVDX to an extent. You can overdose on the scheming at times but that is when it is time to take a break. If it is like that for us the viewers just imagine what it is like for them inside the house.

Their are realtionships in the house, look at Erika in the first 10 minutes of last nights show, very touching stuff.

Dave will be a loss to the house. He definately offered something outside of the 'game'. Desi did you know that Dave had sex with Amanda on her last night?

This is Dave summed up...

Dave is walking with Erika to the desert room

Dave - "Hold on a sec, I just gotta grab something"

Dave grabs Dana's arse.

I'm not giving up on it yet but I've been trying and I just don't care.

The only opinion I've managed to develop so far is that I wish Jack would shave what's left of his ridiculous haircut off.

my thoughts exactly. the hour long shows are quite good but watching it live i find unbearable, the game is ALL they talk about.


a really great BB would be a happy medium between our show and theirs.

I think its to do with the fact we had 9 weeks of our version of BB and this came right after, its BB overload

I enjoy watching the shows and the Live feeds mostly at night, it is IMO a much better version of BB than our one, I think the scheming and stuff will calm down a bit as more people are evicted.

I think you hit the nail on the head there fight fan.

From the start of BB UK to the end of BB USA will be nearly 18 weeks (124 days) which is 4 and a half months!

That is why BB really begins for me when the US version starts.

What would you rather watch ? The scheming, back stabbing etc. of BB USA or our lot sitting around playing Guess Who or the exciting adjective game ?

I think its crap compared top the british one, but you've got to remember the attention span of Americans, they cant stand football because you dont get 500 goals per game.

I love the scary music, whenever someone is conspiring against another, its like 'the bold and the beautiful' meets reality TV. And when someone is evicted! I've had more excitement watching my clothes spin at the launderette.

I think the Americans have tried to make it interesting but have ultimately succeeded in making it a bland, fake soap opera style piece of crud! Well theres a surprise!
