November 23, 20177 yr Apparently Jack also begged a 14 year old girl for "bra shots" when he was 16 :lol: :drama:
November 23, 20177 yr This series is gonna be a repeat of last years isn't it? Everybody getting along and it being painfully dull. Last nights show was like watching paint dry :drama:
November 23, 20177 yr This series is gonna be a repeat of last years isn't it? Everybody getting along and it being painfully dull. Last nights show was like watching paint dry :drama: Christ ikr? :lol: It just feels like Toff bringing ALL the entertainment then once she's done with her amusing confessional thing, it's just "I miss my kids" "I was in the Saturdays" "oh look having a bath is slightly inconvenient here".
November 23, 20177 yr Tbh I don't mind that they get on well its to me a lot different to CBB in that it doesn't rely on drama to overtake the show. It rightfully makes it be a different reality show than most others. The entertainment comes from the exchanges from all involved and the trails.
November 23, 20177 yr Can’t reality TV just have a season without any contestants who are either a.) controversial or b.) problematic to begin with? Not only is it bad for the show as a whole, it just makes either one of Tumblr or Twitter go on some “holier than thou” rant about how much better they think they are over 90% of the human population, which is also bad.
November 23, 20177 yr Iain Lee in the jungle. I have personal history with him, so hopefully he's voted out first, or says something wrong and gets kicked out early. Red stars to win in the task. Jeremy Corbyn would be pleased.
November 23, 20177 yr Christ ikr? :lol: It just feels like Toff bringing ALL the entertainment then once she's done with her amusing confessional thing, it's just "I miss my kids" "I was in the Saturdays" "oh look having a bath is slightly inconvenient here". You know they're struggling for things to show us when they have scenes of them bloody running around/exercising :lol:

It rightfully makes it be a different reality show than most others. The entertainment comes from the exchanges from all involved and the trails. I agree, I prefer it when they get along because I'm a Celeb is simply light entertainment. Drama and arguments don't necessarily come hand in hand, and there's a large number of factors that make I'm a Celeb entertaining. If you find it boring, fair enough, that's your opinion, but perhaps it's not the show for you if you just want to see conflict.
November 23, 20177 yr I've watched every single series since it began so I think I'll stick with it :rolleyes: I ain't sitting here saying I wanna see everybody at each others throats. I just don't wanna sit there and watch the celebs running around exercising and Fiz from Corrie crying over missing her kids after a couple of days. If you find that entertaining, I guess...fair enough.

If you find that entertaining, I guess...fair enough. So if you've watched every series, none of this should be new to you, it's hardly changed since I started watching (I think around Biggins' year?) and has always had little drama. The interesting moments tend to come from the trials and challenges imo. I wasn't being patronising to you or anyone, I'm just shocked that a long term viewer is saying it's boring when it's no different to normal.
November 23, 20177 yr So if you've watched every series, none of this should be new to you, it's hardly changed since I started watching (I think around Biggins' year?) and has always had little drama. The interesting moments tend to come from the trials and challenges imo. I wasn't being patronising to you or anyone, I'm just shocked that a long term viewer is saying it's boring when it's no different to normal. The trials/challenges are always fun to watch but it's the relationships in camp which can also make or break a series. Outside of last year and this year, there's always been a fair amount of drama mixed in with really entertaining friendships which form. I'll elaborate a little.. 2015's series was perfect with Lady C's hysterics, but that was also mixed in with lovable characters like George, and really surprising (surprising because I thought she was going to be vile) characters like Vicky. 2014 was great because I loved to hate Edwina Curry and I found watching Michael Buerk and Tinchy's bizarre friendship entertaining as hell. 2013 was good because Lucy Pargeter shocked the hell out of me with how miserable/bitter/confrontational she seemed, but that was mixed in with characters like Amy who surprised me because I had a preconceived notion of what she'd be like before the series started and I was totally wrong. I could go on and on.. So when you say "it's no different to normal", well for you, sure, but for me I see a glaring difference in quality. Last years series didn't have characters I cared about. Everybody was really placid and I found the majority of them/their conversations to be extremely dull. This series, so far, is going in the exact same direction. Edited November 23, 20177 yr by jase.
November 24, 20177 yr Agree with Joseph & Harry here, I much prefer it when they get along and I always worry that the late arrivals will spoil the harmony. I think they've split up the camp a bit prematurely this year, theyve barely got to know each other.
November 24, 20177 yr Yeah I'm with Jase, I'm not necessarily wanting them to rip each other to shreds all the time but it's so dull when it's just them having baths (not that Jamie Lomas wet and soapy isn't a wonderful sight *.*) and saying they miss their kids like it is some episodes, at least last night was much better with the challenge quiz thing and the PM stuff. That at least is them doing something, I don't see who could find them sat there whining they miss their kids entertaining to be honest but each to their own :lol: I used to love this show but this is probably the longest I've lasted since the Joey Essex year, because I am loving Toff and want to see Vanessa actually do something before I bow out if I do. I find I get bored around about now until the eliminations start, as it ends up being the same 2 or 3 people being voted to do like every trial until they get to pick who does them when the public vote is for eliminations instead, by which point I also find the trials a bit samey. It hinges on the way th camp interact for me, not that they argue all the time necessarily but when they have interesting dynamics like the split and Prme Minister thing it's much better to watch for me than them just sat chatting about how bored they are of rice and beans.
November 24, 20177 yr Author Iain is SO annoying. Literally the Martin of this series. Toff is the obvious winner.
