BBA Hotshots: Cheated

Written by Segololo from the blog Biggie Motherland on 07 Oct 2014
Favourite this post

Uhdikts (addicts) waited with baited breath for this year’s Biggie Motherland especially after the big blow when the house burnt down less than 2 weeks to the show launch. We had to bear 3 weeks of “the show must go on” from the publicists when the housemates were revealed. We were salivating and over-excited whenever the next 3 housemates were revealed.

Finally, Sunday came and the show started… I was a bit surprised at how “cheap” everything looked. The studio seemed cramped, the audience was non-existent and then the idziots (housemates) had to perform or show their talents to be rated by the crowd before getting into the house. What the hell? Was this a resurrection of Project Fame or our beloved Biggie?

Talent show or Big Brother? — **Talent Show or Big Brother?**

The house looked spacious and wonderful when empty, considering that the house was a backup, I was impressed. When the idziots went into the house, I felt claustrophobic. They were all over and too many for that space. Then they started singing, dancing and playing musical instruments, oh my goodness…. I want a special task team to get in there and annihilate the damn things.

The diary room looks unfinished and they sound like they are talking from inside a calabash; the echo is frustrating. Generally the sound problems, the dimness/darkness of the cameras, including the camera angles and the sms strap font being too tiny to read are beyond maddening. I am sympathetic about the camera and sound problems because I hope that biggie is doing something about it. I will borrow my gran’s glasses to read the sms strap.

I am quiet annoyed. I love the Big Brother show, as all uhdikts know. I hope uhdikts will help me deal with my emotions. What exactly is going on with this instance of the show? Are you getting the objective of this season? I am not quite sure what the reasons are for Biggie to change our beloved show into a low budget Project Fame spinoff.

I totally agree with ya. I can't stand this year's BBA. The opening show was a catastrophe. The audience seemed so bored. And how did the voting happen cos they kept on showing us the fingers of one lady with the Blackberry phone. Hay!

I absolutely agree with you. I felt like we are forced to watch Africa's Got Talent. This will not be an easy season to watch.

I totally agree with PruLuv's comments. There are just too many housemates under one roof that it is a total turn-off for me. I have not watched since the opening show. May watch the eviction on Sunday.

True that the house looks ugly. But I thought maybe because I don't like dark colours. We can't read de sms's nd messages. I guess maybe cause the house burnt down unexpected. And something had 2 be done very quickly. Nd money counts

Cancel the show- that's what I say. I loath this Big Brother Show. What values is it teaching the young people of this country? To crave fame at the cost of your own dignity? Nudity, profanity, women abuse and shower sex are the drawcards of this programme. As much as I am willing to accept that some people love the programme just as much as some of us detest it, I do feel it breeds coach potatoes. All the things one could do insead of sitting in front of the idiot box watching people live...

What a load of rubbish it was, and now 5 days later it is even worse. All this money spent on very poor ideas and concepts by the creative team. I'd say fire them and get the real fans to come up with ideas, because these are useless.

Big Brother got messed up in The Revolution when they started overcrowding the damn house.. Atleast they had sufficient space and better video and audio quality.
