I agree, Lake_Gal about the three nominees. I think the POV should be live( or the kind of competition where no one knows who won until it's announced) and voting follows IMMEDIATELY. It would really mess with strategy as everyone would have to think of each combination of two nominees when planning strategy. I'd also like to see the "eviction" changed. Rather than being evicted, I'd like people to be eliminated from the game. However, they still live in the house. They don't participate in any competition, don't vote, are immune from food penalties, etc but can interact with houseguests however they want to. This would mess with strategy too, knowing you have to live with the person you've voted out. I'm not sure how you'd avoid deals with jurors for final votes. Though that might be a fun twist in the game. This would also stop the incredibly annoying "I'll be happy just to make it to sequester." They're all stuck there for the whole summer!

I want Regular people, Ones that actually applied not ones recruited by BB. No All stars from other reality shows NEW PEOPLE only. But ones that maybe have applied year after year! And Defiantly penalty's for breaking the rules like singing, whispering etc. Sigh Just realized I almost said the same think as Lurknomore LOL. I also have to repeat This *** I hope there are no couples about which posters are still speculating 6 months after the show ended.*** But most of all I'll just be glad when BB starts as it is when I have the most fun!

Sheilaree, interesting that you want an older group, due to some unfortunate incidents last year that is what they say they will be doing on BB Australia. The are saying the HG's will have more "life-experience" and be more mature. We shall see.

I thought BB Uk was brilliant this year and I loved the way they did it. I like the idea of the Houseguests voting on who the two nominees should be and they actually enforced the rule of no discussing who the nominees will be (one penalty nomination resulted in a person being kicked out this year in BB who ordinarily would not have been nominated). Once the HGs do their nominations, the nominees are announced to the HGs the next day and the public votes for the eviction. HGs have no idea who is being evicted. BBUK, was very strict about enforcing the rules and I liked that.

I think that whoever wins the POV can take off whomever they want and then they nominate the person they want put up for eviction. Also, I liked last year when the person who was HOH had to nominate someone right then and there without any discussion or influence.

Countrydaze I so agree with you on both comments, it would really throw things in the mix if the person that wins pov and uses it can put up who they want. And defiantly nominations right away, no quick 1 min break that someone can use to change someone's mind. Soon as they win they nominate. And defiantly no Whispering, singing etc. I think they should have Posted rules and if they break them the ones that break the rule gets a penalty like no food for a few days or something.

Hit em in the pocketbook. fine the stipend. I really dont think any deterent, threat of penalty would bother the wannabees. I kinda liked the penalty that BBaus did. They minused money from the potential winnings. But ultimately I think that wouldnt work for the USA. I can see Jase-like HGs deliberately taking penalties when they know they are going to be voted out at the end of the week. Why not if you know you wont ahve a chance at the First prize?

I thought of that also Sunshyne4u, so perhaps the answer is to fine any of the individuals weekly compensation with maybe a small % of the grand prize fined as well. The fines could go to charity, the Red Cross perhaps. I also think there should be punishments besides $, solitary confinement, ineligible for an America's Choice, or a task/chore to be done. It would be nice if that could be something for charity as well. Maybe put together bikes or toys for some group.

Nobody can sleep in the HOH room except for the HOH. Win their hot showers. Or lose hot water as a penalty for singing, whispering, etc.

<tiptoes into the room and sees that the addicts are still here.> I thought I'd check in and it's great to see you wonderful people kept these threads going all year. WTG!!! As for the topic of this forum, I was kinda hoping to see an earlier start for this season. The wait gets harder every year and I always lose a few episodes due power outages resulting from the weather during the summer. Other than that I'd settle for BB simply giving them more to do so we have something to watch. <tiptoes back out of the room returning to the task of getting 2 months ahead on the workload in preparation for the next BB season>

I would like to see the contests actually require skill or knowledge. I definately don't want to see them have to eat disgusting things or large amounts of things for a competition. There was a cooking competition on one of the recent seasons, I think that was a good idea and they should do it again. (yeah, I know, I'm a chef so of course I think there should be a cooking competition! LOL!) Bring back PB&J, or something else that is at least palatable. Slop is so wrong. It may be nutritionally balanced, but give me a break! They lost a contest, they didn't break a rule in prison. Slop is a prison punishment according to what I have read about it. If they want to use it as punishment when people break the rules and start to sing or do other things to screw up the broadcasting of the show, then fine. Other than that, narrowing the food choices is certainly punishment enough. Oh yeah, there should be a hidden immunity idol! LOL!

So many things I would love to see with the new season, don't know where to start! 1) It would be nice to see people come into the house that actually have SEEN AND LOVE THE SHOW! No more people with agents who have sent them down to the castings. 2) POV ceremony should be done right after the competition, so noone has a chance to discuss what should and shouldn't be done. And whoever wins it and uses it should be the same person who puts the replacement up on the block. 3) No more PB&J, slop, or anything that would give the HGs excuses to lay around and do nothing because they are 'too weak' from malnutrition. Besides, BB has been so easy on them in the past, these HGs can basically rig up any kind of dish up using condiments. 4) I want to see Big Brother being a hard-ass. I want these HGs to jump when he comes on. I want less threats and more actions from BB. All these years I have heard of the fable 'penalty nomination' but have yet seen it played. I am tired of seeing HGs back talk BB, or storm into the DR to demand something or complain. 5) There should be a limit as to how many HGs are allowed in the HOH room at the same time with the HOH, and no one but the HOH should be allowed to sleep in there. I am sick of watching sleep overs, and having them use it as a hideout. 6) No more cards! I don't want to hear 2 hours of shuffling from someone who is bored. 7) I am not fond of America voting. I think it would cause people to become overly nice when they are on the block. And I don't want to watch a tea party. I want to see them manipulate and work the other HGs as hard as they can to keep themselves there. This is my first time watching BB Aus and I must say I am really disappointed in the lack of imagination that US has shown in the past. Aus has a strick set of rules down, and if they are broken, action is defiantly done. IE: They are not to discuss Noms with one another. When one was caught doing it, he was basically 'banished' from the other HGs for a certain amount of time. He was able to walk amongst them, but was not allowed to talk, nor were the other HGs allowed to acknowledge him. Maybe I am just evil inside. But I want them to go into the house and experience the biggest mindf*** they ever had.

Zgoodgirl If anyone could put into writing what I would like for BB YOU DID, very well said. I would only add one thing NO Whispering and no Singing should be among posted rule in the BB house and Penalty's enforced if house rules are broke! This last season was the most disrespectful of all BB seasons. To me it was the Will/Boggie show

I've watched every season of Big Brother since the beginning and I miss being able to be a part of the action. Here's what I would like to see: 1. Like so many, get some "I don't have a talent agent already" contestants. I'm sick to death of people delusional enough to think this can actually launch them into fame. 2. The food competition for me has always been completely unnecessary and juvenile along with the PB&J punishment also. The only time food should come into play is for some kind of head of household competition. 3. More "actual" surprises, not these wimpy excuses for ones they've used in the past. I mean something that completely takes the group off card and can totally change the game. As an example, dividing into two teams during the competition and no matter who wins, each team has to nominate someone from the opposing team to be up on the block for eviction within one minute. The winning team would merely get some reward like a shopping spree. 4. Putting the houseguests on a schedule: no more sleeping til noon or 1 p.m. and staying up until 4. They wake up at 7:30 and they are in bed no later than midnight. I noticed the contestants seem to get sick a lot more when they're allowed to sleep whenever they want. BB should be doing a lot more to stimulate the houseguests into activity of some kind rather than allowing them to sit around and play cards or nap all day. 5. Let the public vote, but don't tell the houseguests. I would love nothing more than for the public to be able to nominate and vote out a houseguests twice during the season and the houseguests have no idea it's going to happen. To have all the plotting and planning go to hell in a handbasket because America got the say could shake the game to the core. To see their expressions would be absolutely the best, not to mention having it happen not once, but twice.

Have it done like smack dab in the middle of the game right when the alliances have been set and the war is in full throttle. Would love to see the looks on their faces if that happened. Kinda like the way Justin, Jee, and Robert looked when Michelle got evicted in 4. *rubs hands together, laughing evily*

1. Make them work for luxuries, like a washer/dryer, contests for the hot tub stuff like that. 2. Take things away from them when they fail to accomplish goals. Take away blankets, forks, soap, stupid stuff like that. 3. Give us a vote for each evection. We can vote and or total popular vote count as only one additiona vote in the house along with the rest of the houseguests. 4. No more slop, go back to PB&J and make nthem work for ALL their food. 5. FOLLOW ALL THE RULES!!!! Penalties for breaking them. I am sure I can think of more, just not right now.

I'd like to see tptb be more strict with the HG and us voting would be great...more interesting challenges, less cozy sleeping arrangements, all that kind of stuff but mostly I want then to cast this thing well.
