The Big Brother Performance Review

[dasnico]

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.

I’m certainly not new lol. Channel 7 aside, this is the most over produced and curated steaming pile to air on Ten or even 9.

I scored it a 5. Its passable, but has issues.

This season feels souless. Its like the echos of Big Brother past. Mel is doing fantastically but the budget is really showing. The eviction episode was incredibly disappointing, it felt too much like a daily show.

I do however really like the nominations format. Very quick paced but with live reveals is quite exciting.

I'm hoping that this years low budget and general sloppiness is just a sign that BB will return next year bigger and better, and LONGER.

I dont think there will be a next year unless the budget improves

You're obviously entitled to feel however you want but I would just encourage you to try and appreciate it for what it is, you don't have to find fault in everything. It's entertaining or you wouldn't still be watching it and whinging and complaining about it.

Honestly, it’s more hate watching. I’ll be dropping it if the next season resembles this mess.

Currently at a 4 rating..

It will go down to a 2 if Vinnie leaves any time before next Thursday

I think a big issue with the short run time is the evictions don't really matter - the show isn't going to change at all in the last week unless Holly goes really and even if it does it's only a week. Even Mia, Jane and Michael's evictions all feel irrelevant because too many housemates and not enough weeks means there isn't really enough time for the show to be affected. A week 3 evictee should be long forgotten by the finale.

Yeah this pacing is so Celeb BBUk/I’m a Celeb get me out of here

Fair play the hotel task has felt like classic BB and actually bought out different sides of the HMs. The secret mission element fell flat though - would have been better if they made the nominees the staff then gave them a secret mission which if passed would save them from a double eviction this week and put the others up instead for the second.

Also a thought of the "dinner of the damned". Don't think they've done it this week after not airing last week but would be better to do it on a Thursday as content for the Friday show.

Correct. But these producers aren’t that clever.

Especially since the whole intention of the segment was to be a “lave ditch effort” for viewers to send Save votes… which became completely redundant when it was aired minutes before the evictee was announced on the Sunday episode anyway.

Took my score down to a four. The over produced mess they’ve delivered focusing on ridiculous showmances has robbed us of getting to know all the housemates. It feels rushed, it feels forced, it feels like an over manipulated, Temu version of love Island and not what they promised at all.
Couple that with the dumpster fire eviction shows and it’s a piss poor experience. We want a proper sit down interview, we want a highlight reel of their time in the house, good and bad and we want to see their reaction to who nominated them and why.
Lastly, please for the love of Jebus get a proper, stern, no shit taking Big Brother!
We want real consequences for breaking rules, not this bff, giggly little boy running the show now.
