I signed up the night they put the info up on CBS.com and never heard back from them. The show is taped in Studio City.

I signed up the night they put up the info. I think the request is for two ticket and it is taped in Studio City. I can tell you that there were really only a handful of this sort of ticket last year and this year, with it being allstars it seems likely that more of the ex HG will want to be there, with more guest, that the allstars are asking for more guests and even the producer types will have more willing guests ... fewer tickets for us.

Of course many people who get a ticket offer suddenly realize that oops you have to be there by something like 3pm on a Tuesday and then they transfer or give up tickets. That is the only way I got to go last year.

Thanks for the info. I was hoping I might get one. I was about to do a trial on Tuesday, but it got postponed, so I can probably get away for it. Studio City is really just a hop over the 405 or via Coldwater Canyon for me.

Sea- last year when did the person that gave you the ticket receive notice that they were going? Was it the same day or the day before?

i signed up about 15 hours after i read lurknomore's post (the post that started this thread). i knew i wouldn't be attending, but i signed up hoping i could get "tickets" to give to TVCH members who could attend. (i live 5 miles from BB house, so met the requirements). i'm hoping someone will e-mail the BB producer who arranged the TVCH taping at Moonie's lovely home, about getting tickets (if not already done so). i can't believe she can't arrange for "tickets" for those who were at Moonie's home. it wouldn't be that many...Sea, Pamy, Lanzee, Heaven, Moonie, Spy (did I miss anyone?). seriously, this is not too much to ask after all you went through, sheesh! Pamy, i'm almost ready to write a letter myself (like Pamy joked about) and go to CBS studio/Radford and deliver it (maybe even call an ex-boyfriend! dh wouldn't like that) lol

I think there simply aren't many slots at all in that category this year.. I don't remember exactly when.. not much notice for sure last year. I just don't think we are high on the totem pole with all the ex HG and their guests and it being allstars. It was not the same day. I think Monday is our last hope.

And I did hear Boogie telling Erika that he was trying to get all kinds of extra seats at the finale for his friends! Oh, and didn't Janelle's mom say she would post about the wrap party and show?

Nothing here. It's over! WAHH!!! Oh well....bummer. I totally agreed with Sea that this year for BB7 finale show is unique because of ALL STARS which means more VIPs, ex-hgs and friends, families, and more. Less fans. I guess that I can try it again for next year for BB8. Abby7, that would be nice and delicious treat but it didn't happen. Justin, be sure to share your BB finale show experience here plus pics if you can. Thanks!!! Hey, I can't wait to hop in TVCH chat to hang with you all trw for our TVCH party together and enjoy reading the finale show from east fantastic spoilers. Yes, of course, I am doing my happy dance plus my neon blue pen!!! See you trw in chat room!!! You rock! \lm/ P.S. Sea, I am asking which better for audience seating for finale show by old BB house or new bb house cuz you went both? I only went by old BB house for BB5 finale show. I think it's best by old house, am I right?

Well guys, sorry I was wrong and no one else from here got in! I guess that means it'll just be me sitting there pretending to be excited about a Boogie/Erika final 2. ;) (would've been a lot more fun with other fans; I hope the crowd isn't ALL friends and family!) I'll be in my normal BB finale gear-- red shirt, dark jeans. (it seems to have worked well the last 2 years!) I have dark hair and glasses. Not sure if I will have a sign or not. I'm not making one, but I don't know if they'll have materials to make one or if it'll be like last year when they handed out signs. I may try to bring a marker of some kind in case I get a sign to try to add some sort of shout out. ;) I DO know tickets ended up being very scarce; I got an email today from my source that I was the only person on their list who actually got in (at least it seemed like that's what was meant.. maybe cause it was just me, no guest). (oh, and BTW, the email says VERY clearly NO cell phones and NO cameras, and they will be confiscated... so no pics from me.. but definitely check the wire sources-- like Wireimage and such, we've gotten good pics from them!)

Lanzee, it was actually better last year because we were inside, not looking sideways into the sun and we could see the jury in person. Both years were good. Justin, last year they handed out signs, so maybe you will get one. The sad thing was no one would take the Maggie sign. Someone did take an Ivette sign that was cute and Grammy and I were lucky and got a Janelle sign. I know you will represent us well and after the anxiety you went through last year, I'm happy that you, at least, got a place. If you get any chance to talk to Ann, Janie's mom, Mkchic, tell her we love her at TVCH. Same with Dani's mom, Proud_mama, though she just mentioned the wrap party and I know Dani thinks the wrap party is way better than the finale so Dani may just have her husband and daughters. No cameras so just be looking around and recording it all in your mind. And you know when to clap really loud Glad I got to meet you last year and wish a pack of us were going again, but have fun! === I'm not surprised... this being allstars I think many more will return. I did see that Jack and Pat won't be coming this year. They were there last time. And yes, Boogie has been talking about more tickets for him and for Erika and I think he was told he couldn't go over 6 which is more than anyone had last year. Ivette and Maggie had three guests each and others had max of 2.

I too signed up for tickets the first day they were offered. Last year was great fun. Not only did I enjoy the finale, but also got to meet Justin, Sea & Granny too. However, this time no notification for me either. I live not to far - North Hollywood - so should some miracle happen I can get there fast. Even before I found this thread I suspected, as Sea states, that because it's AllStars more prior houseguests, friends, etc. are interested. Last year I sat in Lynette Rice's seat, I'm sure this year she'll be there. Oh well ...

I didn't sign up for tickets. I've been to a lot of shows on the CBS/Radford lot. The only Big Brother's I've been to were during season one, when they had the audiences for the evictions.

Those were probably the fun audiences, for BB1. Yeah I think Lynette will be there this time. Boogie talked last night about the internet fans wanting to talk to him, well at the finale talking to any of them wasn't an option for most of the audience that wasn't considered VIP.

Was that Justin I saw? He was kind of next to the wall. The guy next to him was waving a homemade brown sign. Something about Howie I think.

Yep, that was me. (his sign said something like "How would Howie vote". Let's just say he was a bit confused) I just got home and am starving; I'll write up something later. It was pretty fun although we were more "cattled" that normal since so many All Stars were afoot (like, refusing to let us go to the bathroom before it started, a bunch of us finally just walked out on them together-- strength in numbers!). But it was pretty amazing, I got to meet Nate (Janie's best friend, sat next to me for a while til he moved down the row to be closer and more in Janie's line of sight) and Bunky (who asked if I was Howie's brother, but I think he saw the guy's sign next to me and thought it was mine), and saw Sarah, Maggie, April, Rachel, Ivette, Beau (sitting near us), Monica, Krista (!), Gretchen (Housecalls), and a bunch of others I am blanking on right now. Like I said, I need to collect my thoughts. The crowd felt a bit more mellow and disconnected but there were some fans who got in on standby somehow. More later..
