Hi everyone! I'm Lyn from Calgary (but born in Montreal 45 yrs ago - Go Habs Go). I lost my husband to cancer two years ago...and there's not a day that goes by when I don't miss him terribly. We have three wonderful kids - the two girls are married, and have 6 and 8 kids each. Son is in university and had his first paper published in May (wahoo!) Btw he's informed me that I'll only be getting two or three kids outta him lol I went back to work shortly after Allan's passing, 25 yrs after the last time I'd had a job. Geepers was that scary. (I plan to go back to school within the next two years). Love BB, it's been a great distraction from life for me for since season 3. My biggest passion besides my family is hockey. Went to hubby's games until he could no longer play. Son and I now have season's tickets to the Hitmen...a great way to bond with your kid!

I'd like to just add I've enjoyed meeting and remeeting all of you. This is a great thread

Hi everyone, I'm Becky. I am 51 years old and I have four brothers. I was my daddy's teenangel and thus my screen name. It always makes me think of my dad. I have been married twice, the first produced 2 wonderful SONS, now 30 and 24. The oldest is married and has given us two fantastic grandSONS and the youngest is not married (temporarily lives with us) but has a beautiful 3 year little GIRL, finally!! who now happens to be my Teenangel. I have been with my second hubby for 14 years and we have been married now for 10 of those years and live on Moss Lake in NC. He gave me a step-son who is now 25, married and has a beautiful 2yr little girl, yippee, another girl!

Anyways, I can blame my BB and TVCH addiction on my wonderful sister in law. She had been watching and lurking here since the beginning of BB1 and that's all she and her hubby could talk about. I was totally anti-reality show until BB5. She finally talked me into it, the show, TVCH, live feeds and all. OMG!! When that season was over, I could not believe the withdrawals I had, lol. My hubby watches the shows, is totally supportive of my addiction with the feeds and although he doesn't watch the feeds, he is always asking me what's going on, and I have on many occassions caught him in bed with BBAD on the bedroom TV, lmao.

Also those BB withdrawals caused me to start watching other reality shows to fill in the gap and now I am hooked on many many reality shows, love most of them, lol.

To wrap this up, my feeds are already up and going and my SIL is planning to come up on Sunday to watch the first show with me, so I can't wait til Sunday.

BTW, I think this is a wonderful thread and TVCH is awesome!!!

I love this thread!

I'm Andrea, and I've been watching BB since the first season. I am married and have 3 kids, ages 6,8 and 13. I just graduated in May with a degree in nursing, and am getting ready to take my boards in a week and a half. As soon as I get back I am going to sign up for the boards for the first time, woohoo! Hopefully it won't interfere too much with the new job I will be starting the week after that, lol!

Anyway, I'm so glad to "see" everyone back again! I can't wait for BB10 to start!

What a great idea! Nancy here - 56 yrs old and married for 36 years...how did that ever happen?? lol

We have 2 wonderful kids - daughter 27 and son 29. I own my own insurance business with offices in 2 small towns in northern Wisconsin.

BB has been my guilty pleasure forever, and this year is a bonus with 2 different seasons. I love it! Being an insomniac definitely helps, as I find myself staying up half the night way too often.

Looking forward to everyone's posts!

This thread is fun!!! My name is Jacqui and I love BB, Survivor, DWTS, and SYTYCD !!!
I own a home with 2 of my 4 sisters. None of them are crazy about reality shows, so I come to the forums to talk with other like-minded people!
I have watched every season of BB, but never have gotten the live feeds, however I devour TVCH's live feed pages ALL the time! I am a night owl and work nights as a RN 3 nights a week, so I find lots of time to catch up with YOUTUBES and sceen captures. TVCH is and has always been my fav forum. I hope we'll have a great summer!!!

Hi Everyone, I am Michelle, 33, I am married and have two boys 5 and 11. We live in California, near San Francisco. I am currently a college student and help take care of my husbands grandmother who lives with us. I have been a BB fan from the beginning. I don't post very often but I lurk a lot!

I figured my first post would best be an introduction, so here I am!

My name is David, I'm eighteen years old, and I live in Orlando, Florida.

I've been watching BB since the first season with my mother, and it's kind of turned into something we do every time the show comes on. Although, we tend to disagree on our favorites, so I can't really discuss anything with her without getting "The Look" from her. It's kind of intimidating.

Anyways, I watch After Dark religiously, and find ways to catch screenshots whether I'm at school or somewhere else with computer access. YouTube is my friend when it comes to catching something not on during that time, and I must admit- my stress level skyrockets when BB is on since I get so into it. Cue my blushing!

I've lurked here since the infamous Season 8 and, since this season has made me hopeful, I finally caved in and decided to join. I'd like to say that, for an eighteen year old, I am quite mature, so I hope no one will hold that against me. If I do something stupid, just give me a small slap across the internet- I'll get the message. =D

Harlequin, I am in love with you already!! Age makes no difference here, we all just love BB. Your being younger than what seems to be the average age here gives us a different and welcomed perspective on the hamsters.

I'll be back later with a bio but I wanted Harl to know he was welcome here.

Howdy! I am Meredith, 35 years old and live in Virginia. I am engaged to get married this year on September 13th to a wonderful guy named David. This is the one "Reality" show he likes to watch, otherwise he is forced to watch what I want to watch. (Yes, I am the queen of the remote in our house.) I stumbled upon TVCH during the 2005 season of BB, but have been a watcher since the first season.

I am looking forward to the new season, hopefully it will be better than the last two (after which I almost gave up on BB forever). I even convinced the finace to get Showtime so we can watch After Dark

Welcome Harl...if i may be so bold to nickname you. my letter 'cue' on my keyboard is broken, so I kinda had to shorten your name!

i'm in orlando too, and twinkie said upthread that orlando is her hometown - so mickymouseland is really being represented here.

And like Geri said, age does not matter at TVCH!

Haha, as long as I know you're addressing me so I can reply and don't accidentally miss something, you can nickname me whatever you want, Rosem. =D

And thanks for the welcome, everyone! I'll try my best to live up to everyone's expectations, and will offer an opinion on some of the younger antics, whether I agree with them or not.

Hi Harl! Welcome to the group! :-)

I am Renie (pronounced Ree-nee), 53, from NE Ohio. I've been around since the first BB, but had a different screen name then. I lost mine a couple times from not logging in during the off-BB-season.

I've got two daughters, 25 and 23, both artists like me. One is working on her art therapy degree.

This is a great place, here. I finally starting branching out to some other threads a couple seasons ago.

I've only met one other TVCH member in person and that was halfunit and her husband (I think he is a member here, too?).

I am really, really excited for this season. I was totally turned off by the last season.

Hi! I'm Vicki and I live in Minnesota. (No, I don't know Ollie). I'm 42 and single and have watched all seasons of BB with the exception of I think BB2, BB3 and BB9(Not watching 9 is a decision I don't regret). I missed what is arguably the best season and that's the year Dr. Will won. From what I understand, I missed a good year. My faves are still BB1 and BB6. My two fave players are from my state -- Brittany from BB1 and Janie from BB6.

I found TVCH only two or three years ago and have been hooked ever since. I don't go to any other sites for my BB addiction any longer. This is the place.

Looking forward to a much better season than the last two. At least I'm crossing my fingers hoping for the best.

Hi all, my name is Michelle and I'm from NW Indiana. I say NW because we are on Chicago time, not Indiana time. I am 41, married and the mother of 3 boys. My oldest just turned 14 and I have 11 year old identical twins.

I have been a BB fan and a lurker here since the first season. I find that by the time I read all of the posts and check out Bunny's site (even though BB9 was raunchy, I would have loved to hear her perspective on it, luckily she is back this season), I never have time to post myself! I'm the only one who watches BB in my family. My hubby did like Dr. Will and would have me fast forward to watch his diary rooms, but other than that he doesn't watch. Hopefully, I'll find time to post and thanks to all who transcribe, post screen shots and post you tubes.

Hi all, I am going to fill anyone in that cares about me on my first BB10 Podcast. I'm off to record it right now. But hey to Michelle from a fellow Hoosier in NW Indiana (not quite as N/W as you though - we are still on Eastern time by a few miles).

Hi! I'm Pam & live in Oklahoma. I'm 53,married and have 6 grandkids who I adore. I been watching BB since day 1. I wasn't to happy about BB9, but I had to watch. I've been with TVCH early on since I did'nt have live feeds I could keep up with the live feed updates. Now I like the discussions to see all the diffenent views.
Boy are they diffent. I started getting the live feeds after Maggie because I liked her and very few did, so I had to see what I was missing. Now I think I just like the underdog because I liked Dick, Just not some of the things he did. Now I just wish he would shut his mouth and let others talk. Plus I liked James also.
I cannot wait for BB10 to start. I kept checking for spoilers and have watched the interviews several times. Just hurry up Sunday. I'm ready for a wild & crazy season!!


PS I don't usually post because I can't type fast enought & can't spell very well.

Hi everyone. I'm Bonnie from Cleveland, Ohio and am excited to meet all of you. I have been a huge fan of BB since Season 1. I ran across TVCH purely by accident during Season 1 when Chicken George was planning the infamous "walkout" and have been here ever since.

I am 55 years old and have 2 daughters both who live too far away from me. One is in Pensecola, Florida and the other is in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

I am so excited for the new season to start and have high hopes that it will be a good one. I don't post too often but I hope to do more of it this season. Hi to the rest of Buckeyes on the board.

Hi there... I am Lynn from North Country NY...way up there by the Canadian border.. *smiles* I have been a big fan of BB since Season 1 but the last couple of years my interest was not so much! I am so looking forward to this year as the cast looks very interesting and I love the house.

I am a 65 year old widow (4 1/2 years) and my daughter is coming home from CA to live and work with me. She should be arriving about August 1rst..I am in the process of fixing up a bit of a suite for her upstairs so we won't be in each others faces 24/7.... LOL We both have addictions to our computers so that should help. She is addicted to playing poker on line and I am addicted to computer games and BB 10.. this should work LOL.

I don't post a lot but I read everything...let the fun begin!!

I seriously think AG needs to read this thread and, in turn, start playing to the demo that is actually watching the show instead of the demo that she wants to watch. Obviously she's way off in who she perceives is watching.

Hi, my name is Lynn, 40 years old and single. I live in Wisconsin. My apartment is clean and I am off to Sam's Club to stock up on snacks. I can't wait for tomorrow night. I lurked here for a while and finally joined last summer. This is my favorite place to go to catch up on stuff that I miss when I'm at work. Everyone is so nice here and helpful when I have a question.
