7 is extremely generous, I must say!
Yes it probably is! I definitely have been starved of reality tv drama so that might be part of it. I just never found another show that replaced BB. So probably rating it like I would a dud root that broke a drought so I was grateful to experience it all the same.
 
NOT THE OG FORMAT WE WHERE PROMISED.

We were promised a return to OG big brother but purist fans like us on here all know its more channel 7 BB then anything else.
Newer bb fans will like it and while yes i am thrilled LIVE big brother is back, it's not what we were promised and that's my issue.
I feel like the og is back theme was just to get people interested.

The production team should be embarrassed and ashamed by this BB, it's not big brother it's more trying to be love island. Why can't they just listen to the fans and give us what we want, why must they do the opposite of what fans want. How easy is it to just listen to the fans and give big brother fans what we want.

• The editing has being average
• The live shows have being pathetic, channel 9 put on a much better live show
• Mel tracina isn't being given time to shine or asking the hard hitting questions to housemates she promised.
• The big brother voice himself is an issue
• The production involvement in favouring housemates is a problem
• Casting as a whole was poor, it's not BB it's more love island or married at first sight. While there has being some amazing picks the bad outweigh the good.

As a person who had watched every BB episode. Don't shoot me as these are just my opinions and thoughts but I was expecting so much better then what we got
 
Tonight made me realise Mel has a long way to go to front this show. Needs to work on her interview style. Incapable of managing/directing the evictee and lets them talk over her and dictate the conversation.
 
I'm down to 4 now. Just so I still have room to move further down as required.
 
I liked the twist tonight, sure there were technical difficulties but at least they were trying something new, so i am not going to downgrade my vote.
 
This will never happen in 2025 as 10 want audience flow into their next program.
They could easily scroll them horizontally at the bottom of the screen as the episode is coming to a close. Many shows/networks do this.

They don't need to be reinventing the wheel at this stage. They should be sticking with what works. But looking at the past two weeks they're determined to butcher what life is left in the format.
 
10/10

Yeah a lot can be improved but compared to the TRAVESTY that was the channel 7 reboot, this is really giving so much OG BB that I was absolutely obsessed with for many years. I was a BB tragic! Like I was considering not watching this season because of how terrible the Channel 7 reboot was and I though they couldn't recreate the magic from the early 2000s but I ended up getting hooked almost immediately because it was so back to form!

I think we need to remember that BB1 was 24 years ago, things just aren't like they used to be, the world is a vastly different place with different genrations and personality types viewing than there was back in the day. They've done an amazing job at making it super entertaining without being overly produced and keeping to the kind of things that made OG BB so great...the showmances, the bitching, the putting them through tough situations without it feeling too exploitative. Like if you compare this to the Channel 7 BB which I couldnt even get into, this is TV gold and I hope it's a new era of BB.

We aren’t asking for a BB1 repeat. “Without being overly produced”?! Idk if we’re watching the same show.

When did I suggest we were asking for a BB1 repeat, I'm saying things are different now and so it's hard to compare it to the 2000s. And yeah when you compare it to the previous reboots, the Channel 10 return is way less produced, maybe you're new to BB.
