Interesting or even normal people get voted out by the public, who seem to choose the most child-like and innocent person of the bunch. Contestants know they have to spend their time saying nothing controversial, being nice to everyone, and acting as energetic and innocent as a 5 year old. Its boring. If they want to get more viewers they need to restructure the show to give the contestants incentive to be more interesting and controversial. My suggestion? Reverse the voting. Have the public nominate and the housemates vote to eject. Allow housemates to talk strategy and voting. By giving the housemates control over the winner the incentives change and should make it possible for interesting characters to stick around all the way until the end. More conflict, more drama.... more ratings. The show is designed to make the contestants be boring.
