being a true BB addict I gave in and got the showtime and I am glad I did. 1- I can got to bes before midnight LOL. 2- no vortex 3- I can fast forward thru any commercials or dick rants LOL. 4 is the best I can close caption and read all the whispering LOL

Omg I had not tried the captioning for the whisperers ! Thanks for mentioning that Seattle. I don't know if Showtime will replace Internet feeds, but I would watch. The problem will now be that his was such a crummy season who knows if the show will be able to rebound.

I love Showtoo..I have always just watched the show on regular TV, and read these boards each day for the real info. But..last night the girls just got home and went into the backyard to talk to the others..Jen came out too, and then..nothing. The show was over..I didn't get to see what happened next. I wanted them to extend the Showtime program for another couple of hours. Maybe they will next year.

Hi Smokey!! I kept trying to say hello last night, but the board was down. It wasn't as much fun not being able to discuss what was going on w/the others. I've not been posting as much as other years, but I do occasionally. I agree, I had to go turn on the feeds when Daniele and Amber got back. It was such poor timing for Show!

I'm actually considering killing my feeds this year. I watch more of the Showtime feeds and it is far more enjoyable. It is not the money, but maybe I want to tell Real when they ask... "Why are you getting out now?" I would say, "Your feed quality sucks and Showtime is the quality I expect. I'm just going to watch that."

I really like BBAD...I record Showtime each night for the conversations then watch it the next afternoon -- I still check in on the message boards for latest updates, though.

I love the showtime after dark especially since being as it starts here in FL at midnight if I am too tired just hit the dvr and there it is waiting for me in the morning. I swear check with me next year and you will see i am not lying...when they have the 24 hour feed on a tv station I will set up another tv in the house devoted just to that so I can have it on all the time and still do stuff around the house.

Did you guys notice that some time in the past week or two that they went from the 30 seconds ads from being every 30 minutes to now every 20 mins? Not all the time, but surely a lot of the tmie now.

I don't think I have Showtime After Dark. At least I can't find it. I have Timewarner and I have some Showtime channels but not that one. If anyone else lives in San Antonio and has it, what channel is it on?

Its seems to me the kind of info on the scroll has changed on BBAD as it has evolved these weeks. It used to give real time info (like who won the veto, etc.) but now it hedges with things like "the POV contest was today. The POV ceremony will take place tomorrow." Maybe people didn't like the spoiler aspect of BBAD? Obviously not people like us (on the boards, with the feeds), but maybe people who mainly watch the CBS broadcast?

Probably more like the BB producers didn't like the spoilers for the viewers that don't watch the feeds. Allietex, do you have digital cable? If your cable box is analog, I don't think the extra premium channels is available on it.

Allie - It's often called Showtime2 or ShowtimeToo. It's on TimeWarner on the West Coast.

Yes I would like to to be longer. 9:00 pm is too early for the action. Its late for me because of time difference, but not for them. Another hour or two would be good. Or start it an hour later.

I TIVo the show and can watch at my leisure, and see it on a huge screen! I would love a longer show as a matter of fact. The only down side is that we only see what the camera people decide is the best.

I like the idea, just not the schedule. I wish the houseguests weren't told what time the broadcast begins. It seems like conversations are more "fake" and played up for the camera. I also cannot stand watching people eat. That takes up almost an entire hour. I believe it's BORING and many of the houseguests have terrible table manners. That said, I enjoy the idea and it helps since my sleep patterns are all off and my days are nights right now. I'd also like to see more scrolled spoiler info at the bottom. I'm a spoiler junkie!!

I love it but I feel like I'm always watching old stuff, since it comes on at midnight (I'm in NY) I am asleep so whenever I watch it's after work the next day so I'm already watching stuff that happened 18 hours earlier... would like it more if I lived on the west coast and could watch live...

If you have direct tv, can you get showtime after dark for each time zone?? I know when I used to have DTV we had Showtime East And Showtime West. HMMM

What will Showtime do when there are only 2 of them in the house? That is usually SO boring. I wonder if they will carry it till the end?

Good question. I was thinking the same thing. No way will it be interesting to watch 2 people wander around the house for 3 hours.

Don't forget the "broom dance"!! It's sort of tarnished now. Wait until next year when they spend most of thier time in the house trying to figure out who is AP. There have to be some members who already had Showtime as part of thier package. No?

How boring is this last week on showtime gonna be? Snoooozzzzze! In fact thats exactly what I did last night, fell asleep watching Dani sitting at the table staring. But I really have enjoyed having it. There were a few nights when it was worth it. The only thing is sometimes it goes off too early cause they are just getting started. Already can't wait for next year. Love BB!!!

I loved having showtime but I watched last nights fun in about 10 minutes. DVR and fast forward have been my friend this year.

I've enjoyed Showtime, but I have to say that last night was not exactly riveting television. LOL I watched all three hours in about 10 minutes this morning.
