BTW I thought the 2003 cast with Allison, Dana, Robert and Jun was the worst. Ever. I couldn't have cared less. This cast isn't great, but at least it isn't that one.

I was really looking forward to this season for a few reasons, not the least of which is that I'm currently unemployed and I'd be able to be glued to TVCH (won't get feeds, but thank you very much to those who do.) So far, I've only checked my puter a couple of times a day to get the scoop. Alas, there hasn't been much to "scoop". Hopefully, it will get better as time goes by...hopefully.

Oh, and the cast with Cowboy and Jase was a close second, but at least there were a few personalities in the house. Annoying ones, but personalities nonetheless.

I'm bored, but if memory serves me, season 6 was boring for me the 1st 3-4 weeks. I hope it picks up, but I have my doubts.

I don't have too much more of a problem with this cast than any other. I'm so glad to get rid of the sovs that almost anything would be an improvement. But I do see some interesting personalities here and look forward getting to know them better.

Yep, it's still too early in the game to pick. Except for Jessica. I just love her.

I think since they stopped allowing anyone who isn't young and fit on the show it has gone downhill. My favorite season had Bunky and Kent. All the 20 somethings are just too shallow......need more 30-50 year olds. Like the FBI agent from a few seasons ago. Just my 2 cents.

I agree Lady. I'm having more fun with this season than I have the last two. They're not the best cast ever, but they certainly have been keeping me entertained, lol.

Blame erika. She probably didnt do it but she makes a good target LOL Okay seriously folks. What I see, and my feeds are on about 12-18 hrs a day, is a number of people trying to act stupider than they are. I've heard at least five of them at separate times state that they watched other seasons and know the game. yet the same people play stupid time and time again. Like today, Jen 'guessing' with the others when the Nomination meeting will take place. every season the schedule is basically the same but no one wants to make it known that they are a hard gamer. Like EX factor, the conflict and awkwardness in the house immediately ruins the fun. we may see some personality coming out once a few more people are evicted. Mike Zach and Nick barely mumble their way thru conversations. Game talk they come alive a bit. I'm bored stiff.... seriously. and Amber is no Ivette. I can barely stand to see her face and all those bizarrely weird expressions she does. her diction and voice puts me right over the edge and I usually change feeds if I can. I see great potential for backstabbing and lying in this season. And for me, that isnt entertainment. Watching 'Amber doublecross Dustin and lie to his face about not telling anyone about Zach's Deal' is why I hate this cast. I dont like that kind of gameplay. It is hurtful to people's feelings in the long run outside of the house too.

Problem is... these are mostly all the rejects that didnt make it from past seasons. We just happen to get them all in this year at once. BB 8 should be called..... the almost house guests of the past, the non-stars. I'd say this year casting was just lazy and went through the "almost made it" ppl, rather than searching for new prospects.

Yeah... that's it Denecee. I swear I can't keep my reality shows straight, much less who was on one reality show but wasn't on another (even when I read the article this morning about Joe Don not making Survivor)!!!...((((sigh))))

Naw .... I'm just happy that they are different people than the last two seasons. Season Six had some very entertaining people but the split in the house meant that there was absolutely no strategy and no intermingling or changing alliances or things that make the game interesting. Season 7 was a retread season and I never got into the Janelle / Will relationship mainly because they didn't let the viewers get into it. So I'm not pining for the past two years.

This cast sucks. It would have been better if all the housemates were strangers. Daniele is no Janelle. Dick is no Tommy Lee, but he is the most entertaining out of the group. I'm finding it hard to be interested, where as before I was running to any computer I could get to, to see what was going on.

Glad I'm not the only one that's bored. Maybe it is too early to judge but I just am not warming up to any of them yet. I agree with Kennyb, it's all T & A and not enough character.

I agree Jimmer.. While i loved Howie and Jani I hated the split it made for a very mean game. All-stars I hated that pre-show arraignments. At least this year i don't think anyone is all that loyal to anyone but themselves when it comes right down to it.

but Cowboy entertained us. His ability to speak english was hilarious. and he WAS a real person. Karen WAS a real person warts n all. These people just dont seem like "real" people to me. Dustin is close (since I havent heard any hollywood aspirations or modellng background) but after hearing about his two buddies who coached him about how to play BB. I'm thinking he aint real either.

Every summer I look forward to BB. After seeing the first couple episodes this year I'm not sure I'll continue to watch. Cast is boring, twists are boring, Julie is boring. They need to completely revamp the show. Have former contestants make up some of the challenges. They were already there, they know what would be fun or hard or excruciating. And I have always thought that Julie should be replaced by someone with a personality. Okay, I'm done ranting.

I struggle with this cast year, it is the first year that I am not into it at all. I missed two summers (cowboy and Jase seasons) due to travel, so I can't compare. This season my problem with this cast and many other reality shows that I have always been the biggest fan of is that it is full of people that are looking for their break into the business. A group of people that signed up to one up the last big name that came out of the show and it all ends up being an act. Very disappointing. There will always be a debate over how real reality tv is, but definitely in the last year I have been disappointed in how "hollywood wannabee" many of the show's cast have become.

Very lazy casting like a previous poster said upthread. Someone must have wanted to take their vacation early so they pulled names of past rejects out of a hat. Dick and Dustin seem mildly interesting so far. I don't subscribe to the feeds and I've already missed two episodes, but it doesn't seem to matter much. Ho hum...maybe it will become more entertaining as they are whittled down to a smaller group.

I'm glad I'm not the only person finding this season virtually unwatchable. For the first time in BB history, I just can't get into the season AT ALL. I definitely agree that it must be the casting this year - they're just blah. Maybe Allstars last year played a part in my feelings this year, but for some reason it just doesn't have the same appeal that it has in years past. I guess this may mean I'll actually have time this summer to do other things. (Unless, of course, this season picks up steam -- and quickly.)

Stop, I think you are right. Last season should had raised the bar on who they put in the house! Most of the house I find extremely annoying!!!

I also think it is the nonstop rambling of Eric or Amber. i just feel myself tuning out as they go on and on and on and on. I truly dont know how they got cast to this show. There is no intellect or strategy to most of the players. almost everyone in the house has told their gameplay style to the others ...and it is circulating. i figure that things are going to get really interesting after the next eviction.
