We can only hope. :)

I understand the need to point out things the production could do better. I too hate the music, the "soft" BB letting the HMs call him nicknames, the long transitions after ad breaks, the over-long pauses, the way some important events may not be shown in the daily show, "production manipulation", etc, etc ... we should indeed mention and comment on those by all means. As long as this doesn't create or come across as too much "negativity" in the forum that it turns people away from it or the show itself. I think there's a fine line. 👍

yes and im kind over this soft kind hearted BB. I want a more cut throat one
 
Omg I’m just loving this series! I think they are a great bunch of people to watch. I’m devo the silver fox was voted out. The house needs that level of “I don’t actually give a fuck what you feel” kinda attitude. People often equate hurt feelings with being right. I love his yeah nah fuck you attitude and it’s gonna be missed. Well I’ll miss it.

As far as my most favourite to my least favourite, I don’t have a most fave yet, but my last fave is defs Piss in my Arse. And I know this will be seen as controversial but… if your disability allows you to go live in a televised house, you can get an actual job and pay tax you fucking bum! Your lazy welfare NDIS scamming attitude is what is ruining this country. Your disability shouldn’t be a career option.

I’m fully expecting to be lynched for saying that out loud, but there it is lol.

Fun fact (that I just checked): Last night, there was exactly 50 seconds between Mel first saying "its time to go" before repeating it and saying Michael's name.

It's almost like they're trying to fill in time because they don't have enough content to broadcast? Like what was the purpose of that? I'd expect 10 - absolute maximum 15 seconds for an eviction announcement.

I couldn't decide if the director forgot to prompt Mel after the camera panned past the three nominees, or if something else happened (like not having the envelope ready?)

Like Gretel when the card was blank 😂

But yes, that's usually how it goes, maybe they were trying to line up the split angle which was pointless considering they were all next to each other.
 
I enjoyed the eviction show. We got a good amount of daily show footage ( even if it’s only one days worth instead of two).

When channel 9 took the eviction couch away, I called loudly for it to return. However in the end I didn’t actually miss it. Even though it was a short post eviction interview, I thought Mel did a wonderful job of touching on the important aspects and letting Michael express himself. It might have only been a few minutes but it didn’t feel rushed to me. IMO she’s a natural and is winning me over more and more. Perhaps it’s her radio training. She’s not anything like Gretel or Sonia, she really is hosting it in her own style and I’m coming to love her style.

I voted for Holly and was ok with Michael being evicted. Although I must say I did find his messing with Connor (who I’m finding to be a little insufferable over the food stuff) was entertaining and at last minute was thinking I wouldn’t have minded seeing more of him in the house.

Found the Allannah / Coco / Bruce conversation interesting. I think it was a super healthy discussion and finding common ground. Politics and even just having any opinions have become too divisive and polarising for me these days. So I found it refreshing that there was obviously a pretty conservative guy chatting with some more liberal thinkers and finding understanding and acceptance. Need more of that in society imo.

Great cast and I’m finding this a fun season. Love it. And love that there are more people (work, friends etc) who are watching it again this year and I can have discussions IRL with people about BB again. 🤩

^ This. This kind of sums it up for me too. 👍

There's a mix of good, not-so-good, crap, and not-so-crap. This includes the new host, the house, the production, and everything. If you combine it all together, the whole thing isn't all that bad.

That’s just sad reading opinions like that. I hate the pushed narrative that people on welfare are scammers.

I’m glad I didn’t read this comment as a disabled person. Now because you’ve quoted it I’ve read it. Being sick ISN’T a choice. Also why do people think being sick and disabled is some kind of holiday? It’s like being in a lockdown in 2020 except permanently. It’s fucking BORING

He's not implying people on welfare are scammers. He's saying Connor is a welfare scammer. And based on the fact that he seems to do the most work in the house, I'd have to agree. His Tourette's would essentially be a non-issue to understanding employers.
