It is like watching a zoo.

Thank goodness we have each other. And snacks. And wine. And Eye Bleach.

Haven't the heart to bots tonight. TOO tired and bored with it.

bringbacksideburns · 14/06/2016 22:41

I've watched this since Series 1 - and I think it just might be time to finally call it a day. It's tired, it's boring and there's nothing new anymore. I watched the last few minutes and just couldn't summon up any interest in anyone or anything!

Anomite · 14/06/2016 22:54

Bedtime for me.. Deffo not BOTsing... That's 1.5hr of my life gone tonight!!!!! Night all!

Anomite · 14/06/2016 22:55

His eyes are sooooooo close together!

MizK · 14/06/2016 23:01

Catching up after a night of tapas and wine and had to bring my book in as I knew it would be boring. I LOVE BB and am super disappointed with how contrived and poorly cast this year's is.

Team Georgina forever. I can only hope she snaps and lets them all have it before storming out of this shitshow.

twittwooery · 14/06/2016 23:05

Thing is if they want BB then it's easy enough to go back to classic big brother, Saturday night live tasks etc, if they want new and fresh there's plenty of ideas

MidnightPanda · 14/06/2016 23:15

The first time i saw him i was a fan Smile cant be the only one?
Although he can be a tad much at times

SinisterBumFacedCat · 14/06/2016 23:20

I'm watching on catchup and it's totally fucked, keeps cutting out, must have had 5 ad breaks.

Did we ever establish what happened to Andrew....

PuraVida · 14/06/2016 23:25

A tiny hopeful part of me inside desperately wants this apparent total fuckup of a series to be part of an actual meaningful master plan where there's an actual moral to be learned by these complete fuckwits and the stuttery start has been to trick us all

I am an eternal optimist

PuraVida · 14/06/2016 23:27

I have questions

What happened to Andy?

What happened between Jayne and Chelsea, they intimated this evening that the others knew. Have I missed the reveal of the backstory?

What was the Marco bit in the diary room about?

Can't stay up for BOTS even though I need answers damnit

SinisterBumFacedCat · 14/06/2016 23:33

Soulbiiiiiizzzzzzz!

TheImprobableGirl · 14/06/2016 23:44

That was the MOST APPALLING SHIT! I haven't been so utterly -
'Oh, well, that was it then' since Nicholas Cage burned at the end of the wicker man!

SinisterBumFacedCat · 14/06/2016 23:44

Am I the only one sniggering at the "lotto became too expensive with too many balls" yes probably

Heavens2Betsy · 14/06/2016 23:47

Well!!! What a waste of time.
Why did the big reveal have to be live? It's not like Emma W was there?
Why the birds singing when they started talking about Ryan - and where was Ryan? I'm sure he wasn't there on the sofa and I'm definitely sure we would he heard him when BB told them about the others!
It seemed like they were killing time when Marco was in the diary room.
Pointless! Angry

CoffeeAndEnnui · 15/06/2016 00:33

I have had to stop lurking and come out of the shitty taste in TV closet to reassure myself I'm not the only one bothering with BOTS tonight?

I can't believe that all filler/no killer episode went according to plan.There is a production team somewhere in that complex, right?!

I've been left confused and bereft, wondering where I will go for a comforting fix of superiority if I can no longer tolerate BB...

leopardspice · 15/06/2016 06:08

coffee;IF bb do have a production team I'd like to know where they were at night...ney I'd like to know where they've been for the last week...

CoffeeAndEnnui · 15/06/2016 08:11

Likewise.

It's so appalling I'm actually getting existential. Like the chap this month who suggested that we are all living in a Matrix style simulation (I forget who, it's early and I have to focus my limited energy on saying "Seriously, eat your muesli!" a thousand times), my mind is wandering around wondering whether the act of watching this shite is in itself a task?

feckthemall · 15/06/2016 11:43

I think I've outgrown it too. It's very much aimed at the younger audience who are not as easily shocked as some of us elder lemons. I cannot abide this culture of wanting to be famous for getting your tits out or being edgy and out there.

cardoon · 15/06/2016 13:08

Feeling very sad about how far downhill BB has gone - are these people in any way representative of how 20 somethings behave nowadays?

How I long for Mel plucking her pubes on the lawn Grin

CoffeeAndEnnui · 15/06/2016 13:38

Oh feck Feck, you could be right. Because it's not the tackiness I object to (I'll watch the holy Housewife triinity all day long) it's the cynicism - it's all self-contrived contrived for cash, headlines and invites to cheesy clubs.

I prefer my reality TV cast to be contrived by producers to amuse me and then set semi free to roam but the young folks are used to scripted reality, aren't they? Damn it. What am I supposed to turn to now? The Archers??

Rachel0Greep · 15/06/2016 14:59

I haven't watched a full programme of it yet, but definitely feel like an elder lemon watching it.
And some of the contestants are in their thirties or more, I think? Hmm
Sad carry on, a lot of it.

FoxSticks · 15/06/2016 15:32

That was utter shite last night. I'm loving Mingo as a new name for Marco - so very fitting.

WaitrosePigeon · 15/06/2016 16:14

Haven't caught up with last nights yet. Will I be disappointed?

StilaOnTheWrongPlane · 15/06/2016 16:19

In a word Pidgeon .. . . . . . . . . . . .YES !

1wokeuplikethis · 15/06/2016 16:20

I've just watched that abysmal 'twist' on catch up. All I saw was adverts, birdsong and vague, vacuous questions being asked of vague, vacuous Marco.

Can anybody actually tell me what the twist was then? Y'know, scrabble through all the shit that just wasted my life?

Was it that the house now knows about the not at all secret house officially? And that Lego head went in there? Is that it?
