I agree Sheilaree. How long can their 15 mins last? They have made a fair living off of reality tv for the past 3 years.

Dani and Danielle were sent home a few days ago. That's all I heard for sure. Some of those people are just ridiculous choices! Howie?! Dear God. I wish they would have a 'back to our roots' season and leave all these formers in the past. So disappointing.

What is killing me about the mentor thing, is that I feel like they put together a pretty good cast this year. A lot of artists/musicians, different occupations, or (heh) no occupation! They even skewed a bit older, especially with the Joe replacement. I thought they did well. Then they have to throw a wrench in everything by bringing people back, and once again, forcing alliances. Ugh. I think I stopped complaining for about 20 minutes today, and now with the possibility of Rachel, well, I'm back in complain-mode yet again!

Jeff, I saw a website with a promo package that Rachal and Richard Hatch were pushing. On a boat or something. She really has no further aspirations than this life? What of Brenden's cancer research future? Marriage and kids? This does have a shelf life, especially for those not well liked. What is she thinking? SMH

I think Dani would have made a good mentor and gotten another boyfriend to boot ( just kidding). So far all the speculation is just getting me excited for premier night and for the feeds going live. I honestly don't care who goes in, its always fun to see how things develop.

Sorry Jeff! Lol I'm with you. Not.Rachal.again. Ever! Which is why they do it. Victim tv, but who's the victim? Me.

I don't think it's forcing alliances per se Rose- there's no rule that we know of that says whoever wins HOH can't nominate other players on their mentors team. The mentor might not like it, but they really don't have any power (that we know of)- they are there only for advice. No one is going to screw up their chance at 500K just so someone else can win 100K. So picking the teams is going to be very important to the mentors- they will only have about an hour to get to know the newbies before they have to pick the teams (and we don't know how they'll decide the order- a blind draw or a comp). It actually might be to the mentors' advantage to pick people that might not get along with each other- if you have people in a couple of groups, that helps your chances of one of them possibly sticking around longer....Remember, you don't care which one of them wins and how they win, just so one of them wins.

I am very excited for BB to start. I am excited about the 12 new houseguests. I am excited about the Mentor twist. I think we all say we want the "old school" BB back, but I really think we are WAY past that. I think we would get very bored, very fast. Maybe I am wrong. But right now I just want it to start!!

Yeah, Jeff, Sorry. Not really. Come on, admit it, all this speculation is kinda fun! Like Laj said, what else have we got to do! And like Missy said, it is getting everyone here talking about it.

I thought I read somewhere that the retreads would be living separate from the newbies but be visible through glass (no joke). They would be mixed together at different intervals. Did I hallucinate or dream this? (I'm a bit embarrased to be asking this-lol)

Wilson, as usual, you make very good points. I wonder if there will be some rule that you can't nominate someone in your 'mentor group'. If there isn't then, yeah, that would make it more organic when it comes to alliances. But even if there is no rule, I get the feeling that they're setting them up to be teams, and making it detrimental to nominate 'one of your own'. I guess we'll have to see what the logistics are going to be.

Just voted for Enzo! I think the less we talk about the "R" girl, the better.

The producers do tease us by putting Evil Dr Will on their web page. I wish! The cast seems interesting this year, so I'm not going to let this mentor thing ruin my fun.

Rieann, with so many rumors flying around, that was probably speculated on, and no one has debunked it yet, so anything is possible. Am I actually expecting the unexpected?

I'm so excited that it's almost BB time, I really don't care that they're bringing back people...

I really doubt any VOTING is going to make a difference. They've already decided. Same thing happened last year "which couple do you want to see back in the house". But it's fun to guess from the names posted.

Yeah, the vote is just "Who do you think will come back," not "Who do you want to come back." So it's just to get people excited about the season, not to actually give us any power!

Longbeachbbfan, the cast bios are in the USA 2012 Thread, it is a separate folder from General discussions.

I would like to view the Preseason Interviews. I am being told I need it Adobe Flash Player but I want to use my new iPad. Is there a known workaround to get around this limitation?

I love BB but an tired of them bringing back people. CBS says the 4 of the most successful players will come back. So to be successful at the game you would have to win the game or you were not successful. You lost. So by all rights it should be 4 past winners. But wait it is BB and they will pick the 4 people who will bother me the most. So it will be Dick, Jeff, Jessie and Mike.
