Hi Everyone.
I have spent the day pondering up my thoughts for the just finished Big Brother season 2020 and here they are:
The GOOD - Give credit where it's due:
1) Kudos to Channel 7 for taking a massive risk and reviving a contraversial series that has been cancelled twice before on Australian TV.
2) Hats off to endemol Australia for overhauling the Big Brother format to better reflect the contempary media climate.
3) Shorter season run time which does not drag on for months.
4) Housemates voting which removes the need for extra cameramen, security, insurance, crowd facilities, voting services, etc that live evictions require.
5) Mostly consistent timing when compared to season 2014 on Channel 9 which meant episodes were harder to miss.
6) Really nice Big Brother house which looks great on TV.
7) Cracker cast which included people from all walks of life.
8) Some rather creative nominations challenges like the chair game which provided plenty of laughs.
9) Sonia Kruger, once she was unshackled from the autocue during the live finale, actually showed a lot of potential to become a great long term host.
The BAD - There's always room for Improvement:
1) The series was pre recorded months ago which gave producers too long to create fake storylines.
2) Too many non-nominations challenges like secret missions and daily tasks which gave us barely any time to get to know the housemates.
3) Online voting information was a shambles which meant lots of people probably missed out on casting a ballot.
4) The music added in post production was over done which detracted from the viewing experience.
5) No theme song at all of which is an integral part of any Big Brother series.
6) Too many twists which seemed to favor producers most liked housmates of Kieran and Angela.
7) Launch show was very rushed with no house tour and no explanation of the new format.
8) Too much communication with the outside world which featured letters from home after only 17 days.
9) Eye spy was a quickly cobbled together side show which was filled with out of sync audio most weeks.
On a side note, it has been a pleasure to start most of our daily episode threads this season and i love you all, even @Kingston who is still a king pest!
What do you think of my Big Brother 2020 series summation everyone?
