I hope it's true!!!

Quote:

Talks to bring Big Brother to Channel 5 are at "an advanced stage", industry insiders have claimed.

Broadcast reports that negotiations between the reality show's production company Endemol and Richard Desmond, the owner of Channel 5, have re-opened in recent months and a final deal could be just a few weeks away.

Big Brother was an innovation in TV when it started, but has run it's course and should now be left to TV history.

I'm annoyed it is on Channel 5 as i watch that channel alot for CSI etc.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 
Nothing has been confirmed if it is being put on C5 and also CSI might not even be affected by it so a bit early to be worried about it really. Its not a done deal yet if they will air big brother but I have my fingers crossed that they will

Digital Fanatic 29-01-2011 22:31

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 
I so hope it's true... I miss BB :cleader:

And if people don't like it, they can watch something else... theres enough channels! :D

Yep and a device we got with our tv called a remote control that switches the channels over and you dont even have to move of the chair to change over. Great device. :D:D:D

For people who hate Big Brother it wrecks the evening TV on that channel, as it would affect the programmes i watch as they're on at prime time mid evening.

They even want to extend the time it is on! :td:

January has been such a winter of discontent without Big Bro :(

They will probably just move it to another time and you can tape it.

But I don't like those programmes that are on FIVE now. I will start watching the channel! :)

Maybe they'd move the programmes to another FIVE channel or maybe put BB on FIVER?

That is the problem i don't tape it, when i want to watch it i want it on mid evening, Big Brother just takes over the evening telly!

They should move big brother to mid afternoon and keep it there lol and leave the evening free for real TV.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 
Thing is it was never on 5 only ever on Channel 4 so you dont know how they are going to run it so dont be worring until the deals have gone through and they give times of the shows if they do agree the deal.

The last time Big Brother was on my television the remote broke so I had to use drastic measures to switch it off.

If Channel 5 get it they will want it prime time, i guess i just hate all this kind of TV, all this BB, XFactor, Celebrity whatnot it is all trash in my opinion but there will always be some people that love it like you 2 guys on here lol

Personally BB had its run so i think it should be gone forever.

Ya so true. I hate sports and also hate Sci_fi but dont knock the people who like it as that is there thing and everyone is different and like different things. To me they are rubbish but that is just my opinion and it wouldn't be fair for me to go on threads and slag the people who are interested in them.

I watch Burn Notice on FX months ahead of Channel Five, plus you also see True Blood months ahead of Channel 4 on FX as well.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 
Of all the good stuff Sky bought (House, 24, etc), why did they not buy BB if it is so popular? Perhaps because even they draw the line at such poor quality TV.

Sasha222 30-01-2011 11:00

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 
Or maybe just maybe Channel 5 had the deal before them. I dont care who bought it as long as they someone shows it :D:D:D

Angua 30-01-2011 11:06

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 
Just wish if it has to come back it was on some obscure digital only channel where they could stream 24 hour viewing & no one would care. Rather than on a main terrestrial channel. It is that Ch5 have bizarrely chosen to bring this corpse of a show back to life that most object to. If they only show this on fiver I would be happy.

Sasha222 30-01-2011 11:07

God, I hate this show. all it is, is a platform for attention seeking idiots that take a chance of the public either liking them or hating them.

I won't be watching it.

Sasha222 30-01-2011 11:14

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 
Channel 5 are not going to force anyone to watch it. They are going to air it if they come to an arrangement with Endomel and thats it. What people do after that is up to them.

Angua 30-01-2011 11:14

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 
Never watched past a couple of bits of the first show. The issue is with all the promotion of the show that goes on in the media. Wherever you looked there was some reference to BB so even if you never watched it, you were still subjected to the comments & promotional carp.

Sasha222 30-01-2011 11:15

I don't by newspapers & still got the carp. If I choose to watch something like CSI on C5 or FiveUSA, BB will be promoted during the ad breaks so no getting away from it.

If Channel Five doe get the rights and shows it I think after one series they will realise that they have bought a turkey and drop it, plus Channel Five does not really have the audiences required to make this a success.

I am not really being negative as you should know from my previous posts in the Big Brother thread, I will make jokes and post pictures to lighten it up and sometimes even find information for you.

I totally agree with that and do like your funny pictures but there are people who are being negative and putting it down just for the sake of it. If people dont like it thats fine. Do what I do with programmes I dont like and avoid the channel while Its on. Nobody now is stuck to just one channel so Its not like they cant avoid it

Maybe i should go on to the Top Gear thread or CSI and start complaining about them?

Yes but the programs must of us talk about are 45-50 minutes a week and not hundreds of hours that replace regular programs in the disheartening belief that it's what a majority of the UK public want, when in fact I think the last figures were dismal.

Not true as they were always looking for a buyer for the program..

Very surprised that BB doesn't purely go IP subscription based, people seem fanatical about watching complete strangers sitting round all day talking about nothing in particular, anyone who actually wants to watch that is also susceptible to paying for the privilege..

Most of the hate comes from people who haven't even watched it though. At least with Top Gear I have good reasons to hate it. Jeremy Clarkeson!! :mad:

Very surprised that BB doesn't purely go IP subscription based, people seem fanatical about watching complete strangers sitting round all day talking about nothing in particular, anyone who actually wants to watch that is also susceptible to paying for the privilege..

They may be 45_40mins long but still people still do talk about them on the theads and i dont go and ruin the convo that takes place and knock the people for liking them. I do have the respect that because I dont liike them I should slag the programmes of.

I never mentioned HATE, just annoyed that a lot of good programming will vanish for over a month.. Personally I have seen BB and I find it boring but with over a thousand channels to watch I'm sure I'll find something else.. ;)

With me, it's that little short one! :mad:

Exactly, Kymmy. We have choice and plenty of it. I avoid Top Gear, it's not rammed down my throat. I don't hate the people who like it or want to deny them their programme.

You do though have a perfect right to go in those threads and make constructive criticism in why you don't like those programmes, just because you do not choose to do so doesn't mean to say that everyone has to forgo their right to discussion whether fore or against as it's not against the sites rules nor is it considered bad netiqutte.. The threads are marked with the program name and not "Only for fans of 'the programme'" ;)

That would make us very sad, though. I don't see the point of attacking someone elses preferences on tv shows :)

(waits for someone to call me sad about BB :tiptoe: )

Well when the world cup comes on and it interfers with programmes I watch yes it annoys me but even at that I just go and find something to watch and dont go on the sport threads and slag the people who are enjoying it and like to talk about the ins and outs of it.

I just get on with finding other things to do and the people who like sport or other programmes like Sci_fi and othre stuff I have never seen them having to defend the fact that they like those programmes

Yep, same here. I have digital TV and I find something else to watch, we have VoD too if nothing is on ;)

Why do you feel the need to defend the fact that you like the program? It's your life, your TV and your time. Just ignore them and watch the show..

Everyone though is entitled to an opinion, just the same as yourself saying that you had given up on one TV program and won't watch it twice within the same thread ;)

At the moment you mean, as you know the 'team'(if such a thing ever or still exists) have made such requiremtns for discussing BB in the past.

Re: Big Brother: Channel 5 close to deal
 
Because the minute the thread was made a load of poster came on with negative comments about it. Ya I agree people have there opinion about it and are entitled to it but I didn't see the title of the thread saying oh big brother is back and I want to maon. Its a postive one for people who do like bb. As far as I can remember there is a moan thread for people who dont like it

Even if that statement was accurate team decisions are not for discussion in public Dilli, if you wish to take it to the team in private you know the method..

But you don't have to post either way in the thread. Having two seperate threads to discuss the same thing is just silly. If it's done for BB it should be done for EVERY thing where there are such opposing views.

I don't like it any more but I cant' say as I feel the need to moan about it, it doesn't affect me either way.

The fact that people moan must say something about the program.. The same as those who support it.. Both have a position in this thread as to the news that BB is possibly coming back :p

It IS accurate and I didn't discuss anything that wasn't posted in public.

A lot of team decisions are posted in public Dilli, yet we've always asked that they be discussed with the team in private. Please do that now if you wish to continue the point.

Believe it or not there was two threads and one was for moaning about bb and the other was people who were watching bb

I am reposting a descision made by the TEAM made / posted in PUBLIC - NOT discussing it's merits.

edit - it's got nothing to do with the team discussing anything I was just pointing out what was decided - which was reposted and made a requirement of the thread.

Yup indeed, but I seem to not be allowed to mention it :)
