Not meaning in the votes but the Producers orchestrated a contestants exit, or just helped somebody win.

1. Matthew winning Dancing On Ice 2012 - This years winner of Dancing On Ice Matthew got stuck on last 4 times in the time slots, was given the best routines, and was given top marks when he didn't deserve them.

2. Aiden Grimshaw losing to Katie Waissel on X Factor 2010 - The most hated X Factor contestant ever managed to somehow beat Aiden Grimshaw when it was her fourth time in the bottom two and only his first time in the bottom two, he also produced great performances like Mad World while Katie Waissel murdered big Rock songs like Sex On Fire, but take that up with Simon Cowell as he clearly needs his ears tested.

3. Freddie losing to Marcus in Big Brother 2009 - The Legendary Halfwit lost to Captain Cool As **** in the tightest vote of Big Brother 10, but what I thought was bad was that Freddie was being shown like he was the Devil on the Highlights, while Marcus was portrayed as a saint.

4. Ben's eviction on Big Brother 2010 - Ben got shown in all his glory on the Highlights the week he went, while John James didn't have his 7 hour rant shown, and Dave didn't get shown as being a cocky twat thinking he would beat Ben in the vote.

5. Sam winning Dancing On Ice 2011 - Sam was always stuck on in the last 3 in the time slots while Laura and Chloe was always stuck on early, he got perfect scores for performances that was lucky if they deserved a 25.0, and the only performance that I think he done good was the River Dance I think it was.

6. Lucie Jones losing to Jedward on X Factor 2009 - Yes im a big fan of Jedward but they should never have saved them over Lucie in a million years, but again blame Simon Cowell as he needed his ears tested.

7. Charley Uchea being portrayed as an evil bitch in Big Brother 2007 - The Producers seemed to have an issue with Charley and kept showing her as this evil bitch that argued on everyone and made there lives a living hell, but if you watched LF you would realise that those Housemates were insane freaks that would delibrately start arguments on her, Chanelle in paticular.

8. Kris's eviction on Big Brother 2009 - Don't get me wrong I hated Kris, but how did he exactly break the rules? I think they was trying to save Charlie from being evicted and the Producers was clutching at straws.

9. Luke's eviction on Big Brother 2008 - When it was suppose to just be Luke vs Dale in the eviction and every poll said Dale would be evicted, they then plucked out a twist that had 8 Housemates go up so Luke fans was concentrating on multiple targets while the none Luke fans was tactically trying to evict him.

10. Jamie Archer losing to Lloyd Daniels on X Factor 2009 - Jamie was stuck on first with Radio GaGa, how was he suppose to pull that song off unless he completely changed it? then when the bottom two is between Jamie who done very good performances like Hurt and Crying faces Lloyd Daniels, the one who murdered Bleeding Love, Louis decides to send home Jamie, Louis also needs his ears tested.

I didn't know what section to put this in so I hope it's ok.

Anyway what's yours if you have any?

I'd agree with the X Factor ones because the judges had a say in what happened, and they clearly kept the more controversial candidates (in the Lucie and Aiden instances anyway).

[Patrick]

Josie Winning BB11.

That is all.

[Locke.]

I hate when people say it's a fix, but Ulrika winning over Terry Christian in CBB6 definitely was. (Coolio should have won anyway, though.)

Katie surviving every week on X Factor was just for the publicity was amazing how much it got, but the people going where getting low votes anyway so would probably have still been back in the bottom 2 the week after.

Because that whole week Freddie turned into a ******ing arrogant little wanker who thought because he had been saved loads of times before, that the public wanted his dick.
He wasn't portrayed in any light - they can't 'make' him say the silly things he came off with in that week.
The Great Marcus Akin however was on top form, like always - and that is why he was the one who took down Fredrick.

tara reid in cbb8, she was great and then when she got up they rarely showed her and only showed bad parts.
BBUSA-
1. Jeff winning coup d'etat
2. BB13 " Power Couple" Twist returning the 3rd last week
3. Bringing back a player in BB6, BB13
4. Bringing Jessie back in BB11 as part of the "twist"
5. americas player all of season 8 ( even tho it was part of the game )
6. BB coaching Lawon that there were going to b special powers.
7. Bias Editing every year.

Fair enough if you think that but I think Aiden pulling in 5% being stuck on 2nd out of 9 with a pathetic song choice without the benefit of a rebound is very impressive, I would have been interested to see what his percentage would have been on a rebound and a later time slot but Katie Waissel went through instead and ruined the excitment imo.

And I agree with you Rk3388, BBUSA is a very rigged show but it's great fun.

Bea's eviction on Big Brother 10. Siavash and Sophie refused to nominate, but instead of the two of them being automatically nominated or ejecting Siavash (since this was his second or third time doing this) Big Brother didn't tell them what their punishment would be, and instead Marcus' narration said that the first two housemates Siavash touched and the first two Sophie mentioned by name would be nominated... obviously they just made these reasons up after Siavash touched Bea and mentioned Bea by name.

Actually BB10 had a lot of rigging. In addition to Bea, Kris and Hira also had their evictions engineered by Big Brother.

[Patrick]

^ OMFG. Never caught onto that.

[Jords]

Poor Hira I loved her sfm!

[LemonJam]

USBB11's Jesse Eviction... there has never been something more obvious.

The entririty of BB13 was rigged for Rachel also.

[BBfanUSA]

looking back at luke's eviction week. Because a bunch of hgs were in on it they should've changed the noms to includes those that were in on it.

true... although Rachels my alltime least favourite winner haha.

[Jords]

Rachel is amazing

[Omah]

Pete Bennett to win BB7 - he was picked, pimped and primed - coaching, dry runs, media leaks and the "pratfall" entrance ensured the win - all he had ro do was be nice to the "ladies" and everyone's a winner .....

Unfortunately, he was just a tedious, pot-banging, self-centred p***k who thought he could be a pop star but even £1m and a recording contract couldn't help him make it .....

[Pyramid*]

There have been loads over the course that I've been convinced that there was a fair bit of fixing involved - the not quite above board but not quite against the rules stuff.

some already named here: I'll have a wee think when my brain isn't in semi comatose mode!

"Loser" Luke Marsden - all mouth and no trousers - he tried every attention-seeking trick in the book, including "bedding" the appalling Bex but only finished 12th in BB9, just above Bex at 13 .....

[Omah]

Cameron Stout - Winner BB4 - his "public" persona was a complete fraud from the beginning - the "simple fisherman" was a wealthy international fish dealer who spoke five languages, travelled widely and collected cars - he also happened to have an award-winning brother, Julyan, in the media industry .....

The homophobic biblebasher ensured that there were no gays or lesbians on "his" show and he never took his T-shirt off, even in the pool (did he have man-boobs or a third nipple?) .....

The First Fix was to get rid of Jon Tickle in the contrived double eviction .....

The Big Fix, though, was the Africa trip - it ensured massive coverage, including a "love affair", and immunity for a whole fortnight for Stout, who, of course, had no time for women, except as objects for manipulation .....

They chose that week to do 'vote to save' blatantly knowing that Hira was unpopular.

Big Brother 13 (US) was big fix to save Jordan and maybe try and make her win again, however it failed and Rachel won (maybe she deserved it, but she had alot of help from the producers who were trying to save jeff and jordan)

I think 'any' reality show has not so much a fix in them as 'manipulation' of the viewing public, which is much more evident in the spin off shows and the way they are pushed to have select sheepguests on the shows who nine times out of ten will conform to the producers wishes or ways of thinking. Victor Eubewa, and especially Pete Burns being very evident of being someone who has turned into a BB C5 sheepguest, probably because his career is at a standstill/going nowhere, so he has resorted to doing C5's bidding. They know certain sheepguests and regular same old, same old, sheepaudiences will have the desired effect 'to a certain degree' of turning many a vote round. Having said that, I think the worst effect on reality show voting, especially with a one on one are betting stings. Just my opinion though.
