Indygirl:

I don't have the answer but watch another episode and return to the original later. This is what I did as I had the same problem with episode 3.

I don't think there is any chance of seeing Rob in the BB house this year because they would have to bring in other so called "celebrities" to fight him. Not doing so that would bring to much attention on him and would be unfair to one competitor (or all the others).

And with all of us out there looking for just that, I think we would have found out already if some other known Realty Star was about to become a HG.

well they put Stephanie back into survior with regular ppl...plus the fact that we know BB is cast now more than ever. The stories I have read from some of the ppl that interviewed prove they didnt apply but were found

Recent news has suggested that Rob Mariano from Amazing Race and Survivor all star will be playing the Big Brother 8 game, there still has been no word about whether or not his wife will be on the show.

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Brother_8_%28US%29


Well let's check the source...Anyone can edit and put any information up on Wikipedia ... I don't think that source is reliable for this type of information

If someone knows where Rob and Amber live and they can confirm that Rob was there before June 25th (unconfirmed date of the beginning of sequestration) and that Rob disappeared after that date, then and only then will I believe that there is a chance and only a chance that Rob will be in the BB house this year.

Count me in on the Rob fanbase. I think he would be hilarious! I agree that he is a master strategist.

NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

I've waited all year for another season of Big Brother and I read here that there's a chance CBS may make it completely unwatchable for me by forcing Boston Rob on us AGAIN??!? I cannot believe that CBS would be that dumb. And what would be the point?? I doubt any other house-guest would come close to "fawning" over him. I am sure they would treat him like the meglomaniac unemployed fame-hound that he is and vote him off as soon as possible. sigh.

I really can't see CBS being that short-sighted. Boston Rob would likely send more viewers running from their TVs than bring in any new ones. He's been shoved down the throats of viewers long enough. And as far as the live feeds go, I've been a subscriber to every season since Season 2, but there is no way I would subscribe with Boston Rob in the house. Who needs to hear his non-stop "I'm the best reality star ever" routine 24/7?

at least that'll save me some money. And I might see more of the outdoors this summer.

Still, until we know for sure, I'll give CBS the benefit of the doubt that these rumours are wrong before I write off the season entirely.

sigh.

I'd much rather watch Boston Rob than someone that lies in bed and/or eats all day whining about how nobody likes them cuz they're beautiful

Yay!! My laugh of the week...excellent comment and so true.

OKAY, I like Boston Rob. Although i liked him best minus all that weight when he was starving on Survivor LOL

I can see BR as a Great protagonist in the house. a ringer put in, with a wage, to reek havoc and mess things up.

Other BBs around the world have someone who basically Sabotages the house.

Boston Rob would be excellent! he's so sneaky. LOL

I'd also like it that regardless of how much he irritates the legitimate HGs, he cant be voted out!

Can you imagine the Headgames Rob could generate when all that double dealing and backstabbing starts to occur?

Wow, bring on the master!!

why not just rename Big Brother The Boston Rob show? Sorry, but he has already been on two seasons of Survivor, two seasons of Amazing Race, they made a reality show about their own wedding, and had yet another show on their sad life, it's beyond enough. I have very little patience for people like Boston Rob who have to bring other people down to pad their own inflated egos, and that is what Rob does. He likes to brag about what a brilliant competitor he is, though he's shown very little evidence of being anything but a giant mouth. Somehow, there still seems to be people who find this enormous arrogance entertaining. Hopefully CBS realizes his 15 minutes are beyond over and Rob and his silly ego show don't deserve another minute of our time.

Flamingo,
I am so with you on this!!! I can not stand Boston Rob, nor his wife. Enough is enough, in my opinion.

I had read somewhere during the last TAR show that CBS had so many letters, phone calls and complaints that he and Amber were on, yet another CBS *reality* <term used loosely> show and people were tired of it.

I know dh and I both emailed them so I have to believe CBS would not be that stupid. For my own sanity I have to beieve this.

I personally think Boston Rob would be a riot in the house. Yeah he can tend to be rather annoying but thats his charm. I dunno if I could stand to watch him on the live feeds 24/7 but I think I could deal with it just bc of the head games he would play...

I saw on http://www.realitybbq.com that there may be some news on The Early Show tomorrow. Nothing specific, but I will watch it anyway. I can't wait until July 5th!

funny how Boston Rob is too irritating for the house yet we had Howie in the House twice....and many people here LOVED him.

I will not watch if Howie is put in, BR I would.

Amber too? I wont.

Too many ringers

Well I really don't think Boston Rob will be on BB8. The info that he might came from Wikipedia and we all know that anyone can edit that...But you know I don't dislike Rob. I actually liked him on Survivor, and on AR the 1st time. I don't recall him too much on Survivor All Stars, and I didn't watch AR all stars...so maybe I am out of the loop...But really, what is the point??? They should just put in total strangers with diverse backgrounds and experiences... They can be in the fishbowl and the show is to see how they can get along...forget the Twists!

Please no Boston Rob! I want to see all new housemates that have never been on any other show.

A. Wikipedia is carefully edited; they pride themselves on being reliable.

B. I feel sorry for Rob/Amber after they had to swallow a lot of humble pie on Amazing Race All Stars this year. (They were fourth team out of the race, if you didn't watch.) I missed seeing them on "Race," and I'd love a Rob/Amber twist on BB8. It would be fun!

i think if Rob or Amber show up on BB8, I'll have to fins something else more fun and interesting to occupy my evenings with...maybe scrubbing the oven or even a root canal! the first survivor he was on i thought he was just too egotistical, a jerk and too overbearing...not to mention not even remotely good looking (to me), that voice and accent just got on my nerves. i'm from the east coast and know people from boston but never anyone with a terrible accent like his....ughhh!

Heres a thought. If the bully rumor is true, Maybe the bullies are not brought in to compete but just to confront and attempt to bully the houseguests. Then if the Rob rumor is also correct he actually wouldn't be competing. I'm sure if the bullies were competing they would all probably be the first to be eliminated. The target on your back would be huge.
