“Big Brother is our summer hero,” said CBS’ Jennifer Bresnan, executive vice president, alternative programming, in a statement. “Every year our producers deliver innovative twists and turns..." Obviously Ms Bresnan doesn't watch the show herself. Thanks for the link, Wilson

Innovative? That made me snort out loud. Glad noone's here. lol I think after this season, their new promo ought to be "Don't expect much, much less the unexpected". Saboteur had such promise but went down in flames, not once but twice. Diamonds turned to rust and predictable ran wild. The bar has been lowered and I'll crawl into BB13 just to see if anyone grew a brain, otherwise, it won't be worth watching again. Having been an avid fan since BB1, that's just sad.

lol Puzzled thanks for the good laugh!! Needed it after all this sad news here. The fire sure is sad news and I'm glad they are not telling her until after the show. How unfair it would be to give her devastating news then make her sit there and try not to sob on live TV for 2 hours. The only shining note is I very much did NOT want her to win AC, and was scared she would based on the polls (her mean comments were too much for me). But given the fire, I'm now fine if she wins. And even if she doesn't, I'm betting with all the stuff going on she will have some opportunities to either get some donations or have some events held as a benefit and so on. I think in the long run this may end up being very telling about Brit and her relationship with Nick. If she is there for the right reasons they'll pull together. If not, well, things like this usually shine a light on the core of a relationship. BTW FWIW I had an Aunt who was literally like a 2nd Mom to me. Growing up she was at every single major and not so major event. I saw her pretty much every day, and even moreso after my Dad died when I was 17 (she was my Mom's sister). So I was not happy with the Matt situation, but it made more sense when I read it was his wife's Aunt. Not to say he won't care but it's not quite the saame

Lost, followed your link to read the story and happened to see the other one about Tonya from bb3 arrested for reckless homicide... I don't even remember her. Looks like the fire started from the grill somehow. Yikes. He was lucky to get out of there being he was in bed and the alarm didn't go off.

This has probably been posted a dozen times already, but I saw the other day an easier way to cancel your feeds. Something to do with changing the language to Chinese I believe, lol. Anyway, thought I printed it but can't find it. Is there a link somewhere?

Someone on Hamstertime says the reason that former BB HG's aren't allowed at the finale this year to do interviews is because of Lydia from last year- she was blogging for a website, but got ticked off because of all the stuff this years HG's were saying about her- she made some veiled threats about what she wanted to do some of them at the finale (or whenever she encountered them), so CBS got spooked and banned all of them because of (probably) possible legal issues...

You can see it's charcoal grill, not a gas grill. I hate to say it, but it looks like someone wasn't very careful making sure it was completely out before leaving it unattended for the night.

I posted this in the Viewing RP Thread: You can cancel online, therefore avoid all the talking they do to try and get you to stay with them. Just go to Real player, click on my account(my info), change info in location/lang. preferences, not billing address. Here are the changes you need to make...Lang.- English-Canada, Zip 243-8511, Country- Japan. Then go to billing history, cancel feeds. Just remember next year, if you sign up again, to go back and put the correct info in before you sign up.

Dang, is there a curse on the BB house? Brit wasn't my favorite, but I wish good things for her. And thank God he got himself and the doggies out of there.

I wonder if all the houseguests' families are getting free plane tickets and accommodations for the finale?

Mystic-- I've had my location set to Japan for the last 3-4 years for my Superpass and have never had any issues signing back up or anything... I actually cancelled about 48 hours after I signed up so I didn't forget to do it. ;)

Slybones, I have some good friends who lost everything in Katrina (they lived in St. Bernard Parish) - she dealt with it the best she could (emotionally) because she had insurance. She said everything can be replaced. I have another set of friends who also lost everything in Katrina (also from St. Bernard Parish). However, not only did all the family members lose their homes, they also lost family members and pets that drowned. I know CNN filmed them when they were being rescued from the rooftop of their house in Chalmette. However, her comments to me after Katrina (in spite of having complete insurance coverage), was some things can NEVER be replaced. My point is, I hope Brit can see the forest through the trees and be thankful that Nick and the furbabies are safe.

so are the feeds off for good now?? I really cant see Brit having all of her lifelong possessions in that house. I could be wrong, but since they havent been there that long, maybe a lot of her stuff is still at her parents. Hey, her dogs are ok, thats what counts

Someone was kind of enough to post that info and I just copied and save it to my e-mail as I know this is easier to do than talk to a rep to cancel. Glad that I was able to help everyone out! Can't wait until the finale tonight. Quick Question: I can't remember but do the jury members get to see the first two parts of the HOH Competition?

carrly - i believe the HG's said that they get 2(?) family members to come for free, anyone else has to pay their own way.

Unless someone moved that grill after the fire was out, it didn't start the fire. There is no burnt grass under it.

Not necessarily Ark- some sparks could have blown from the embers and caught on something that started the fire away from the grill...

It is probably easier to call to cancell, 1-866-230-4707. I got through right away, and cancelled with no hassell.
