Big Brother All Stars
 

Big Brother is coming back to CBS. Now I know there are plenty of people who hate the Big Brother shows. So if you do.... just move along. Thank you.

Did anyone catch the show last night? They re-introduced 20 candidates who may become this year's houseguests on the All Stars edition. I can see some of them getting voted in almost automatically (Janelle, Kaysar, Will, Howie)... and some don't have a chance in hell.

What do you think about the "all stars" type of format? Survivor tried in awhile back, and personally I found that it had only limited success. We'll have to wait and see how BB does with it.

I dont like it very much honestly, because I dont think there have been enough seasons. Plus the way they divied out the available spots is too heavily weighted to the most recent seasons. They only picked 1 candidate from season 1 for example. And what, 4 or 5 from season 6?

I got sick and tired of Kaysar, Janelle, Howie, Ivette and that whole entire bunch.. and now they might come back? blah. I hope those people are NOT automatic, but being the freshest in peoples minds you're 99% certain to be right.

They picked way too many people from the most recent season, and they picked ones I really didnt like which for me, sucks, lol.

I will go and vote for everyone except season 6.

Sorry, this thread is too long

I agree with a lot of that Tom. I was hoping to see several more from seasons 1 and 2, but at the same time seeing players like Kaysar and Will in the house together might make for some interesting scenarios.

I felt a little cheated last night. I was thinking that Big Brother was really starting. I guessed that we would vote kind of like American Idol and Saturday we would see the people we voted for. I also thought it odd that they said we would vote for 3 women and 3 men. What about the other 6? CBS probably has them already picked out for the season.

As for the people that might be there, I would like to see Janelle and Howie (the Jedi) back. I would have liked to see Marvin as a choice.

As far as marketing, CBS seems to be thinking. By saying, tune in to The Early Show to see what the contestants are doing for the next 2 weeks was really smart. With Katie gone from The Today Show on NBC, the time is right for getting new viewers.

Anyway, it did piss me off to hear, "Tune in on July 7th to see who the contestants are".

I would love to meet 12 new people. Never been a fan of all star episdoes.

Since Big Brother started in Britain, can I say, on behalf of my country, "we are all very very sorry".

I agree, Jim. Tune in on July 7th? Thanks for eating up an hour on a clip show! lol

I thought she said last night that Big Brother started in the US and was now being played all over the world. BS I guess?

It was actually created by a French company, but no French TV station was prepared to take up the idea, so they sold it to a British station who unleashed the evil on the world.

yeah i'm hoping that Janelle and Lisa both get in, those two are reason enough to watch :D

I had the pleasure of meeting Lisa in LA on new years a couple years ago and she is just a doll, I am pulling for her

I'm curious does the US version get as 'raunchy' as the UK version. Over here it sometimes stops just short of becoming pornographic (no 'action' actually seen, but things like one contestant giving another a blowjob under the blankets happen). Most people watch it hoping to see this sort of thing. I cannot see American television getting as bad as that, but I also cannot see how the format survives more than a couple of series without that sort of thing to liven it up.

I had to avoid this thread yesterday because I had BB TiVo'd :)

I only really want 2 of them in there - James & Jase.

If Bunky & his unshaven back or Cowboy & his slack-jawed yokel self are on there this season, I might be vomiting a lot during the show.

Big Brother is the television equivilant of aerosol cheese. You guys really do need to improve your tastes. If you have time to watch that mind numbing drivel, you don't work hard enough.

But I like aerosol cheese.....|couch|

That is a mean thing to say, eating aerosol cheese is a lot more fun than watching Big Brother.

I seriously only started watching it because Survivor is not on until the fall. The summertime shows are usually pretty lame, but this year there are some interesting ones.
Treasure Hunter is very much like Amazing Race. The new Rock Star (Supernova) series *could* be good..

I could amuse myself for weeks with cheese in a can |goodidea it isn't gonna improve my taste though, that stuff is nasty even on a Ritz :D

LOL... I had to look and see if aerosol cheese was real or not, and it is!

But there's worse TV out there. Much worse.

BB is back on in the UK..we have two girls in it who have made porn films currently in it.

I have been friends with a girl from the first ever UK BB for years. She is the stunning blond who appears in two films on my site.

Ex BB star (I use the term loosly) content sells well here

|boobies|

So why you not shouting this in big letters on the front of your tour?

We have just put the content up..all the promo galleries shout it in VERY big letters




Have a look here>>>>

Before Big Brother
"Nichola Holt, a textile artist, was the fourth person to be evicted, as Claire Strutton, a florist, entered the house in place of the disqualified "Nasty Nick"."
After Big Brother
"Nichola and Sada had a brief relationaship in 2001. Nichola supported Gabrielle on tour and released a single called "The Game" which flopped. She has since become a porn star."

I'm a big fan of Big Brother and I'll be sure to watch it this year. I want a good mix of nice people and evil people in the house so it will be fun to watch. I really hope George from BB1 gets in so we can see how he plays the new BB with new rules. I watch BB from the UK and Australia also so I'm going to be busy watching all these shows every day.

Nichola Holt has also been exposed by the press here in the UK as an escort

It seems appearing on the show seems to have an adverse effect on the contestants.

Would anyone here want to go into the BB house?

Some of my best friends are 'escorts' and porn actresses. Explain why this is "an adverse effect".

Sorry that didnt come across very well. Im a porn actress too....

I meant to say that the huge media interest in the contestants when they leave the house can give them a false sense of importance, when the interest dies down it can, and has in my friends case left a huge void.

She also suffers every year when the new show comes on from more Media digging.

Nichola has been out of the Porn industry for over two years and only appeared on my site because we are friends...

I in no way consider working in escorting or as a porn actress as a demeaning job....Hell we have sex...and make money...I LOVE IT xx|thumb

I just got an answer to my question. There was a chat/comedy show I watched a moment ago that was guest hosted by Jerry Springer. During the show he was taken to see the British Big Brother. His response to it was "I'd get arrested if I did this in America".

I saw some pics from BB UK this morning with lot's of juicy nudity.
Too bad the US version of BB doesn't go that far.

We have the most amazing double standards over here.

At one end of the scale Buffy and The Simpsons get censored before broadcast, some episodes never get shown at all, and there are 4 episodes of the original 1060s Star Trek series that have never been shown over here at all because they are deemed unsuitable.

Then at the other end we have broadcast stations that show soft porn (I mean unencoded terrestrial, the same kind as your CBS, Fox, etc, not satellite channels), One chat show host, who takes great delight in using 'fuck' and 'cunt' whenever he can, recently showed a video of his anal examination on his show (film from the camera that goes up your ass). A lot of the jokes on British TV are very obscene. And even I was shocked at an long scene of a woman being anally raped on TV a couple of years back.

Yet while I watch all this, I banned from watching some episodes of The Simpsons and Star Trek because they are deemed unsuitable for public viewing.

Go figure.

Who's up to date with BB All Stars?
Thankfully my DVR records it for me and I get caught up once a week or so. It's much better than I thought it would be under the "all stars" format.

UK BB just finished. I did not watch the series, but apparently it was won by a guy with tourette's syndrome. Nice programming, 19 weeks of some guy who cannot help himself, continually swearing on television.

Not sure which is worse, the idea of pushing a show by finding a way of filling it with bad language, or the idea of pushing a show with 'laugh at the guy with the funny disability' policy.
