They should at the very least get Will and Boogie to do phone calls on the tv broadcasts, and totally rag on these people!

Ratings will be low this year for this motley crew. I wish the HG's would wake up one day and find a former HG sitting on the couch, oh say Janelle, Marcellus, Kaysar............

is it too much to ask to give us say 3-4 intelligent people over the age of 30?

I agree with those who are disappointed with this season so far. I'll give them a little more time, but usually after the first eviction I've got favorites and am caught up in the house dynamics. The EX-Factor was also my least favorite season so far, but this season could rival that one in boredom if not ick-factor.

I read somewhere else that Joe also noticed that many of them are previous finalists and suggested they should be called the reject season. LOL

And another feedster posted that a couple of them were caught commenting that the DR has told them they're "not active enough" and the hamsters were commenting that maybe America was already bored with them. LOL

I'm watching my recording of Showtoo last night, and Mike and Zach are on the hammock having the slowest, most boring conversation ever. I don't think they've even made an effort to move their mouths more than a centimeter!

No wonder I fell asleep watching this last night.....no need for Ambien here!

I wish they brought back the weekly competition for their food money.

At least it gave them something to do.

Maybe these people are boring because they are so frigging bored themselves.

I am so glad that I'm not the only one who is disappointed by this cast. I felt guilty for saying it at first. CBS needs to clean house with the casting crew. There's to many people on the show that have been coached or picked because they know someone involved with the show. It's always rumored that each season is the last season for Big Brother, but this may really be the last season. Several of my friends and I used to discuss the shows all the time and now no one is watching.

Joe is a little drama king,if his rash is as contagious as he says it is then he needs to go home, preferably today.

I'm also bored with this season. The cast is a big part of it but I think the format of the show contributes as well. They are too familiar with what is going to happen and when. They are given too much food and things to play with so they don't need have little projects and competitions for extra food or luxuries. No wonder they are so bored that they bore us.

It's interesting how people see things differently. That was one of the reasons I was uncomfortable with the All Stars. I felt that they were doing a lot of acting and trying to make good TV and some of it felt forced.

Also, many of the All Stars tended to play a rather dull conservative game. The more interesting (to me anyway) wildcard players were eliminated early when the SOVs kept winning HOH.

The Janelle/Will romance was interesting but only to a point as they spent 95% of it whispering or singing to prevent people from hearing them. And to top it all off, Janelle eliminated Will, neither Will nor Janelle made the final two and Boogie won. Argh!

I find most of them boring, I thought there would be referees needed for Joe/Dustin, but all they do is flirt w/each other... but I do enjoy Dick's stream-of-conciousness talks he has when he's alone!

Perhaps there should be some incentive to "entertain" How about each week america votes for the most entertaining hamster?

i saw somewhere that the ratings took second spot. In other words, good.

and considering the outfits that Jen has been wearing, we know what demographic the Producers were hoping to hook.

that red outfit is almost worse than her suits.

I've been watching BB since season 1 and this is the most boring season ever. I want to get into it but am having a hard time. I hope things pick up or else Im not going to continue on with my live feeds.

I think it's gradually been going downhill. I wasn't all that impressed with most of the cast the year Maggie won. And I was bored out of my mind with the "all stars" (some of whom I thought were stars only in their own minds).

Gradually, BB has made things easier and easier for the HGs. Now, they no longer have to work for their food, or buy their food within a specific budget. They get immediate access to the workout room, to the hot tub. They have a clock in the house. Everything is given to them; they have to do nothing except participate in the comps and occasionally get called in to the DR.

THIS season, however, the cast is more homogenized than ever. The "old" folks aren't old (although Kail seems to think there's a huge gap). The rest all seem to mostly be wannabes in one form or another.

And WRT Kail's constant "old" harping... She really needs to get over herself. One of my best friends is half my age. I'm old enuf to be her mom (in fact, I know her mom really well). And we are really close friends and age doesn't matter.

I LOVED the Will and Boogie phone calls. It would be great to hear their take on this dull game.

Nope, I haven't either. Usually after the first week or so I always start to root for a certain player and/or players. This year I haven't done that yet. I did wind up subscribing to the feeds, but find myself watching them very little so far. I'm choosing something on TV or still listening to my favorite radio shows at night instead. I'm mostly coming to TVCH from time to time to see what's kind of happening on BB.
