Well, guess that ends my dilemma of what premium channel to keep when my freebie months of HBO, Showtime and Cinemax expire in mid-August! Although I think dh wants HBO...too bad for him!

Rain,

Don't know about your cable company but ours will do away with one and let you get the other for free...so when BB is over, check, maybe you can switch it to HBO?

We got lucky, when I saw bb on showtime2 I called my cable company and they offered me a deal I couldn't turn down, all hbo, all showtime and all encore for $18 a month for 6 months! Had to do it LOL. DH doesn't know about the BB yet LOL

Well, it's very cool news! Well, I want to sign up, but I can't. WAHH!!! I'm looking for a new place and a new roommate this summer. (It would be nice if I can move in BB house to live for 3 free months! LOL!! J/K!) Well, go to member section about it, even I will show you a new pic of me, there.

Anyway, I'll tape BB8 shows on TV since I work at nites. I'll not subscribe the live feeds this summer for 2 reasons - 1) too addicting and 2) no time to watch it. Of course, I know I will read the live feeds posters (rather call closed captions) right here at TVCH!!! Plus vivaciously live feeds caps!! YAY!!!! Way to go, TVCH!

U rock!

This is great -- I just ordered an additional drive for my old TiVo (no need for HD for this - three hundred hours should cover it easy) so I can record the whole season on SHOWTOO. No more losing primetime, I'll just stop getting any news.

I almost got rid of Showtime, but now I have an excuse to keep it........This should be great, Bb is on it is truly summer time.

I just thought of something. Will there be 4 feeds on Showtime, or just one and they'll move from feed to feed?

what we need is someone from Australia here.

I was told by an ex online buddy that they actually had a Reality TV channel which showed hours of the Live Feeds. I would expect the USA to copy the format.

I'm sure CBS makes the call as to what is being shown on each of the feeds at every moment. For BB8 CBS will now make the same feeds available to Showtme that it provides to Real.com. The Showtime director will most likely decide which one of those four feeds to broadcast at any given moment.

Cricket --

What's the difference? For the past four years, at least, the producers have been pretty lazy about keeping different content on the four feeds. It's all the same for long stretches and even more than that, you'll find two scenes split among the four feeds (usually diagonally). A great conversation will move out of the room and you are left with a table, a brush and an empty chair. Very frustrating.

I think this is going to be my fav part of BB this summer :-) The thought of scanning quickly through 3 hours of feeds to the good stuff with TiVo is a very pleasing thought :-)

I'm thinking the same thing Naja, although mine is a DVR I'll check the boards for the good stuff and make sure I find that!

I just checked my cable listings and it shows us as having ShowToo on 2 channels-east and west. On the east coast channel it shows BB as being on from 9-mid and on the west coast channel from midnight to 3am...now I'm wondering if that means that we get to see 6 hours total of live feeds or would that mean that the first 3 hours ( 9-mid west coast time) is live for the east coast and it's repeated for the midnight to 3am hours on the west.

I just (today) added Showtime to my satellite bill and channel listing. Please, someone, tell me that it is worth watching. I have seen Dexter before and liked that, and I'm looking forward to BB After Dark, but from looking at the guide, I'm not impressed with the rest of their line-up. Is Showtime worth it?

Thoughts?

I'm so excited about this! We just got a DVR a couple weeks ago, and we have 3 free months of Showtime. HELLO! I get to tape the live feeds every night! AND I'm getting a DVD-Recorder next week, so I can burn all the live feeds on a DVD. Big Brother is like a drug and they get more potent every year. Muhahahaha

I just LOVE this Showtime thing. I can Tivo it every single night and catch what I've always missed because I'm on the East Coast.
