Default Seriously thinking about boycotting this series
I'm very annoyed at C5 dumping one of the channel's most popular shows.

I can't name one show on C5 that has such a high profile as BB and CBB.

Why the hell should we watch this final run of the show when C5 are basically saying they don't have any faith in it any more. In fact, they hate it.

I will make a decision tonight if I watch this series, but it's looking increasingly unlikely.

How dare they say 'please watch this series' but you can ****ing dream on, there won't be any more.'

Calm down it's only BB , it's lasted a lot longer than I thought it would.

Don't you think they've milked it over the years ?? , they even recycle old ideas as they're obviously running out of new ideas .

I'm seriously thinking about boycotting Channel 5 once this series ends. Which I'm sure a lot of other BB fans will do since its the only C5 show that is watchable.

BB/CBB is the only thing I've watched on Channel 5 ever I think. I can't recall anything else I've gone out of my way to watch on C5

Why would you do that? lol it doesn't make sense to boycott BB when this series needs all the ratings it can get for it to look attractive to potential buyers.

As if C5 care if you watch at this point, you're just shooting yourself in the foot by not watching what could be the last series.
