I so wish the BB producers would read this thread and use all of these great ideas!

I hope they drop the slop and go back to PB&J. I hope they have regular, everyday people. I hope they allow the public to vote. I hope they redesign the house so that more people can evesdrop on eachother. I hope they don't get people like Eric from BB6. I hope they accept more people like Kaysar, Janelle, Michael, Howie, etc.

I like your idea Kep of us picking who is up and the house having to vote. That would really shake things up. I also agree with smaller house and making them follow the rules!

I thing the viewers should make the noms.and they should not be announced until after everyone has competed for veto.This would deter HG's from throwing comps.Deals with the HOH and POV winner would have to be made before the HOH names replacement nom and the house votes someone out.

Ok, here's something 'DIFFERENT'! Will Kirby just posted on his blog at his new site: "Although I can’t make a personal guarantee, I am extremely, extremely confident that I will have a … …RINGER ON BIG BROTHER 8!!! The wheels are already set in motion. Some will applaud this endeavor, some will boo & hiss, many will complain and I’m sure crappy petitions will be submitted to CBS never to be read by anyone. But at the end of the day, you can’t stop Chill Town, you can only hope to contain us. We work like ninjas… more details to follow on this! "

I’m not sure what Will is talking about when he said he’ll have a ringer on BB8. I love Will, but I don’t want BB to be too nepotistic. So I hope the ringer is not a houseguest really close to Will. However, it would be great to have Will back as an announcer or a judge at competitions or even behind the scenes as a producer or consultant. I also hope they don’t bring any of the former houseguests back to compete; I don’t want a repeat of Survivor Guatemala where too many castaways were starstruck with Stephenie. You guys have made great suggestions so far. I would just like to add that I wouldn’t mind America’s choice to be a punishment (e.g., sending a houseguest to solitary confinement or something less mean). To make it less cruel same houseguest cannot be punished back to back.

I wouldn't mind seeing them get 24 hours solitary for breaking a rule and I don't think punishing them for breaking rules is cruel.

I hope there is NO association with anyone from the past shows (except for competition visits if they must) next season.. live in the present.

Everywhere I go I see alot of people being a huge fan of bringing back public voting to USA BB...that is one thing I DON'T want on BB8. Have you guys all forgotten what a trainwreck from an entertainment standpoint BB1 was? I mean yeah it was great watching real people for free on the live feeds but it was SO BORING. The format in BB7 was the best it has been to date. The producers have done their best to eliminate backdoorig the best they can by doing the random draw for POV. I do agree though that the producers can't let the houseguests get away with murder this year. No more kisspering and having secret meetings in the DR. Oh and I like the big house I cosign the change that they only cut audio when the hgs start talking about something they're not suppose to or start singing. Oh and I think there should be more live feed cams for BB8. We have had the token four cams for what it seems like forever. Lets double that for BB8 and have a cam for the live feed watchers in every room!

There's nothing random when they can control the quantity/color/names -- what have you -- that they put in the sack. Now the Spinning Wheel was more random and they only used it for one POV...until they realized they could not control that outcome. Putting balls in a sack to draw out leaves their motivations questionable. Last season it was always a bit to obvious who was drawn for POV. Methinks there was less randomness than the makings of "good TV".

Yes like the obvious veto draw when the inmates had the chance to shave ther heads.. No girls involved and Marcellus who is already bald wasn't involved.

I know its hard to believe but why couldn't that have been a very rare coincidence? Eh I guess your right on that and I do agree the spinning wheel seemed the most fair. I don't know why they only used it for the first two POV competitions.

I don't want any gimmics this year. I don't want twins, I don't want secret relationships, I don't want former lovers, I don't want any orchestrated Jerry Springer moments, such as the Cowboy/Nakomis we have the same daddy moment. What an awful thing to do to them. People are strange enough and quirky enough without putting them into an unnecessary corner. Just put a bunch of diverse strangers into the house together. Make sure they all pass the psychological tests and then test them again. Make sure nobody has anal warts or any other communicable disease, and then let them go after each other like the devils/angels they all are. Oh yeah, if they break the rules, instead of slapping them, I agree that they should be in solitary for a period of time, only they have to be in solitary with the mime. A really annoying and mocking mime. If they hurt the mime, they are evicted. OK, I know I just went against my rant about orchestrated situations by inflicting punishment by mime, but c'mon! It would be funny!

I don't want the house looking like it did last season, that I remember it looked like something that was in the 1970.

Let us see more of the comps on the feeds! As for the decor, at least that is one thing they seem to change every year.

I would love to see the Australia BB rules for fines instituted. $5000 off the prize money every time they incure a fine. Must wear microphones, can not talk in code, must be respectful of big brother, ect ect. It would mean the feed would be cut out a lot less.

I've never seen any of the BB's from other countries, however, I think fines would do wonders to keep a bit of order. Isn't the premise of BB that BB controls or regulates all aspects. Stop letting the inmates run the asylum. It has becoem far to predictable. I would love to vote again, I do not like the HOH and the "power" it supposedly brings. I think each week they should have blind competitions, I mean they do not know what the comp is for, food, veto, immunity, prize, private bedroom. I really hate the way the HOH room has become just another room in the house anyone uses anytime for anything. I want to be queen, nay emporess of BB and make it better, or at least my way.

Sugar I agree about the HOH room. In the Australia version they have a reward room which people win and can invite only one person in with them I would like to see the same for the HOH room. It would shine a true light on alliances or could prove to be an exercise in keep your friends close and your enemies closer lol

I like that Kellee. Are you in Australia or do you view the Australian version from the USA? Our apartment complex has horrible cable, we only have 44 channels, no HGTV, no Bravo, hardly anything at all. The new owners are trying to change it, but having some difficulty with previous owners. We can't even expand it to add more channels. The tree outside our patio prohibits satellite. I just moved here recently after our marriage and have not found a new job, so imagine how sad my tv time is.

Sugar neither I am in Canada and am a sucker for downloading Big Brother's ever since I discovered how to do it last summer. I have caught up with all the UK series and one season of the Australia. I have found that I have been enjoying the international versions more cause you see more sides to the housemates then the backstabbing and scheming. Really no one is there for the experience in the US version. It lacks the a lot of the fun.
