8:25am BB Time and they are ALL still asleep. Hey folks, this is a work day (not the weekend). Normal people are up and working. So, BB, make them work, make them do something. Anything. Assign chores, move furniture, start a garden, throw tennis balls over the fence to freak them out, blast music like they do to the astronauts, how about arts & crafts? Oh well, Arnie et al doesn't care about us, he gets enough good tv with his current script.

I'm in agreement with what Costacat said. These HGs just aren't worth much of my time. Over the weekend I went to the gym, attended a swim meet, went to an Oakland A's game and went to the County Fair. I talked to a lot of really nice 'real life' people. <55> get really old fast.

Too long between tv shows is one problem. But after Thursday, I don't think we'll be as bored. If the eviction is a shock, and I do think there could be fireworks with a tie, I think we'll see lots of scrambling in the house. At least I hope so!

I think so many BB6 people came back because of CBS. I really didn't feel Howie did anything all that great. Kaysar didn't impress me after getting voted back in, all to give it away his change at HOH to Jennifer. Then of course, there was no doubt about it....we all KNEW Janelle was going to come back. I didn't mind her returning, because she was a good player. I also knew we'd see Kaysar again, based on his popularity. James was a pretty good player, so I didn't mind his returning, but I was puzzled about Howie. As a matter of fact, Howie messed the S6 game up, which kept the Friendship in control....so I don't know what even made him a candidate. Then we have (Chicken)George...a shoo-in that seems completely out of his element. I realize the producers wanted HGs to represent each season, but they could've found someone better from season #1(i.e Will Mega, or even Eddie)to keep some of these folks on their toes....LOL. George just grabs me as another Cowboy...follow whatever alliance will carry him. I knew Dr. Will, the winner of season #2 was also a shoo-in, but what the heck did Mike Boogie do to grant him an All-star?? I don't get it. The cynic in me believes that quite a few of these people are who CBS wanted, opposed to actual fan favorites. JMO

Actually Carmella, I think these are the people who would agree to do the show. Not because they are all stars. If it were a true all stars they would have the winners of each season (1st & 2nd). This is basically "Who is not working" or "Who can take the most time off work".

I think one of the reasons BB does not provide more things for the HGs to do is that they WANT them to be bored. They want them to get so bored that they will talk about the game and make blunders. That is what makes for interesting interaction. If they have too much to do, they wil focus on that instead of the game. Some of the best conversations in the past is when the HGS are bored out of their minds and their mouths get to running and they make mistakes. They get bored and this causes tension, which in turn causes great TV moments. I think it is planned. After all what do we want to see, the houseguests doing crafts, playing games, or talking game? If there is nothing else to do, they will talk game. And remember, the whole thing is still about providing good TV, not live feeds. The TV show is still the focus of the whole thing.

They are not all stars but the ones that would agree to do the show and most live in LA or close by. To me the All Star cast should have been the last 3 standing at the end. Just my 2 cents

The first week is always boring, because it's so long between the time they come in and the first vote. Things will happen faster starting Thursday. Not having another show until Tues. also makes it more boring.

Personally, I don't much care for All-Star editions of anything! Survivor All Stars was predictable and boring.. and this seasons BB also seems to be going that direction. Ok so the double HOH was a twist, but the people are NOT interesting anymore... I like fresh faces in reality tv. Just like I liked the show the MOLE until they had a celebrity edition.. but I ramble.. does that mean that I will quit watching BB? Probably not, since I've watched it religiously from season one! I seriously need a life! lol

Tuesday's will normally be boring for those of us who monitor the feeds. However I am so hoping to see Ali rolling out the door on Thursday.This is a slow start but it is going to get bumpy soon, so hang in there.

To add to ZM's quote:If it were a true all stars they would have the winners of each season (1st & 2nd). This is basically "Who is not working" or "Who can take the most time off work".
I'd include "Who hasn't yet had enough of their 15 minutes of fame." You can actually translate that any way you want (what I'd really like to say would get me in trouble with y'all! <grin>).

This is my first time watching the Live Feeds...not bored yet. More annoyed with the fire and the way they have all the same thing on all 4 cameras too much.

I'm actually more into this season at this stage of the game than I am in other seasons. I think it's because I already know these houseguests and really find it interesting to see how they interact with one another. So nope, not bored here just yet.

I'm also loving it so far. I've learned to not really watch the feeds until night time, since during the day they're napping/eating/lounging. Last night there were some good conversations, and they were making up games with a beach ball. Last season was painful to watch because of the tension in the house. Right now it's fun to see them all interract. Personally I think this is going to be a great season. (p.s. I agree though, Howie really shouldn't have gotten back in. Jase was teasing him about that last night - it was hilarious.)

I am not bored. I am loving this season so far. And I think it will only get better as we get into a pattern and they give them regular food challenges, etc. The first week is dragging because of no show on Sunday. The usual first week dragtime. But I am so happy we have people that came to play and not just be on TV. Love it!

This looks like a bad re-run... I would have enjoyed observing new people and new personalities, but already knowing these people and not liking many of them it's not a fun BB this summer... oh well..

I'm loving it. Game players playing the game. Who's in? Who's out? Who's Flipping? Who's flopping? Who's looking to break things up? Who's looking to pick up the pieces? Who's wearing the coat tails? Who's riding on them? Who's really out there? Who's hiding in plain site? Who's going? ...How about now?

I usually find the first week slow and so far BB7 hasn't been the exception but even the glimpses I saw today, I think this is going to be one wild ride and a lot of fun. Initially boring, I agree but I think that's soon to change dramatically.

I disagree. Star <> Winner. Who were the stars of last season, Janie and Kaysar or Maggie? Who do you remember more from Season 4, Marcellus or Lisa? While I agree that some of them are not stars in any sense of the word (Erika, Nakomis, and Diane), the winners and runners-up were not always (in fact, were rarely) the stars of the show.
