The Big Brother Performance Review

[Surly]

No wonder the show was so shit… the crew was literally a bunch of children. And it showed.

The crew i saw while at the live show mostly looked like middle aged to older men, although i did see 2 of the crew there from these photos.

Serious question. But how do they get these jobs? I've always heard you have to know someone to get a job

I have seen these sorts of jobs posted on seek, and open requests for staff for various films/TV shows being posted in relevant Facebook groups.

Some staff i saw, like that girl with brown Rossi boots/full sleeve tattoos, looked like Media studies students i knew from Uni, so those degrees help.

In contrast, these are the types of comments they’re receiving via YouTube:

Truly unbelievable. Specifically lauding the incidental music? These crew members and, apparently clueless viewers, have no idea.

I suggest a polite email and/or comments in an attempt to steer the ship in the right direction.

Probably best not to blame the children if they lacked adult supervision.

I do wonder if they really only had Jonathon Sunmerhayes and the rest were either media studies students and the odd personnel with "Reality" on their CV.

I did see 2 familiar faces that worked on the 9 version, didn't recognise anyone else.

It's just annoying that we spent the better part of say 16 weeks (2 weeks for most of the OG season livestreams) and we got something that didn't really reflect that. Unless that was for the OG fans to be drawn in, just to be sucker punched in the face on launch night. Almost as if they've done a complete reset and this is the new generation of BB and its crew, and this is the direction they'll continue to head.

I just pray next year is an improvement.

I did see this on Mike Goldman's page, he said 250 workers or more... unless that's including the builders and the Dreamworld staff, I just can't see it being that many. But he's in the know I guess.

250 sounds about right - even TV done on the cheap is incredibly Labour intensive.

To be fair OG BB used to require about 500 workers.

Cheers for that.
I would of thought u needed more experience to work on a show like this but I guess not these days especially if they are doing it budget

Bringing on noobs to work a show isn’t uncommon, but typically they’re working under the instruction of someone experienced. You have to start and learn somewhere.

This season seemed to be entirely run by green industry members. I find it hard to believe a seasoned professional ran the show this season.

Peter Abbott, Kris Noble and Alex Mavroidakis - your BB expertise is needed.
