Episode Day 4 Daily Show and Nominations - 12/11/2025

It should also be noted, in addition to the season being officially uploaded internationally on YouTube, they’ve also started adding episodes to Paramount+ streaming service. They’re really extending their reach as much as possible.

Means we could potentially see the live streams on Paramount+ at some point (maybe next year), particularly as a “premium” ad-free option.

Somehow us kiwis still wouldn't be able to legally watch the live streams as Paramount Plus has never been available here lol.

Quite suprised at how strategic some of the reasons were for those nominations. With a number of people having pretty easy reasons to nominate them anyway, I certainly wouldn't be voting strategically this early if I was in that house.

We all have to thank Conor for finding Jane, as that butterfly effected into saving Mia. I actually think with vote to save it might be quite close between Michael and Holly TBH whereas Holly is very likely out easily in a vote to evict situation.

Tbh vote to save might save this season by giving us an elite boot order of Holly, Michael, Edward, Bruce ect.

Bruce, Holly and Michael yeah but Edward isn't going anywhere unless they increase the number of people who can be nominated. The other housemates all seem to love him for reasons that none of the public can understand!
 
- Another decent episode. The backing track is still a major issue for me… I wouldn’t mind it as much if it was used more selectively and had better execution. It’s always going to be a huge no for me if it’s being used to dictate an emotion. Also the mixing is terrible if I wasn’t watching with my AirPods in I wouldn’t have been able to make out what was being said.

- On the topic of music why are we playing generic music during the live intros? Shouldn’t we have an incidental version of the theme somewhere that can be played instead?

- Best part of the show has been Mel. Hands down. Are we ever going to get a live cross to the house? Jam packed show tonight but surely some of that very long and awkward silence during the reveal could have been used more effectively.

- Didn’t mind 5 point nominations being used again. If HM’s are able to nominate based on strategy it makes sense.

- Colin is insufferable. I can guarantee if he wasn’t production’s golden boy he would have received a warning and an eventual strike for being unprepared for nominations. That was just ridiculous. Get your head out from under Holly’s vag and have some respect for BB.

- On that note since when is BB the HM’s friend? Again it’s one thing for BB to have compassion and another thing altogether to be entirely too friendly with the HM’s. You’re just asking to have HM’s blatantly disregard your authority.

- Nominations done well for the most part and I’m happy with the results. Hate to do this but I’m leaning towards putting my save votes behind Michael. If Colin wasn’t suckling her tit every two seconds I’d be more willing to save Holly but with Colin still in golden child status I’m voting strategically as she’s 100% a crutch for him. Casuals I’m expecting will save Holly over Michael.

TBH, I would rather BB kept that detail secret.

So music-wise, much better tonight, HOWEVER, specifically for the nomination tally board and eviction voting segments can production PLEASE use a suitable underscore BB theme mix 🥺.

I wouldn’t say better but the incremental improvement is noted. Not really sure why it’s being used so poorly it’s either the editing team have zero experience with backing tracks or they’re under mandate to have it be used X amount in an episode. I’m honestly quite shocked that we’re the only group talking about this. Surely casuals can’t be thinking it’s been great since it’s often so poorly mixed that you can barely hear what’s actually happening.

This is such a good wrap up!! That’s exactly how I feel
 
Also I’m not sure the integrated live episode worked for me as I felt like it got in the way of actually covering the full story in the house. I understand why it’s integrated and I agree with having nominations pre-recorded but I think splitting things up would have been much better and offered a chance to spin out more content in both the daily show and the nominations show. Especially this early in the series they’re really not doing a great job of introducing the HM’s. It’s all been a bit too surface level.

Yes having them separated means filler but not all filler is created equally… Hearing from friends and family would have been nice and/or showing more house footage would have been nice. HM’s nominations shouldn’t have come as a surprise to production so putting together some packages shouldn’t have been difficult.

The boys are sticking together. Apart from Colin and Michael voting for each other, the rest of the boy votes (80%) went to the girls, whereas only 46% of girl votes were aimed at the boys.

Mia and Holly making up tonight after throwing 4 points at each other, but Holly doing all the talking. 🙄
 
How the fuck was it decided that Colin was going to be productions' beloved and protected Golden Boy?? They cut anything that showed him in a bad light last night, which diluted the actual scene with Abiola and Holly. From the crowd reaction, it seems people are lapping his antics up.

Michael is basically voting himself out, at this point, but I am grateful for him being in the three - with one point! - over Mia. He turned out to be a bit of a turd, but I'd rather he stayed and Holly left. Kind of unlikely. I'd love to break up that fucking showmance. Her face would be a treat, also!

I almost cried when they had the opening music and graphics. I've always loved Ten, apart from their booting JLP, and seeing them listen to fan feedback and improve the show and doing well with it is really heartwarming.
 
One thing I hate about modern BB is how the edit is often based around a handful of producers favourites and then the rest are just treated as extras. That is where Vote to Save is such a bad idea as it basically allows production to edit people right out of the house.

Not had chance to watch the noms show yet but doesn't feel like it needs to be done on the outside stage - just Mel in the control room would work.

Yeah I wish it were vote to evict, and like @the Theorist said I wish they'd put some cost behind it as then it stops bots ect and people are literally paying to remove someone from the house.

I did like the BB years where you could vote to evict or vote to save, they were fun.

I was just thinking, if they are only giving us one chance to vote for entertainment purposes only, the re introduction of a vote to evict/vote to save would have been good.
