Okay...So lets go with the 90 days... then the SuperPass would seem to be a better deal than the month to month... oh why do I have to ponder this every season???

Rosem, there was a rumor going around that after a few pairs are evicted, some of the players will come back in. and the May 6th date fits actually- they're supposed to be going in the house tomorrow (Feb 7th), and 90 days from tomorrow is May 6th. here's what I think the schedule could be (live shows are on Wednesdays), going with the 90 day schedule: Feb 7th: 16 enter Feb 12th: 1st episode Feb 20th: 1st pair evicted (14 remain) Feb 27th: 2nd pair evicted (12 remain) Mar 5th: 3rd pair evicted (10 remain)-returnee twist announced (AC vote-top man and top woman regardless of pairings will return). HG's not told of this, but are told game will go to individuals as of this point. Mar 12th: 1st individual evicted (9 remain)-but then 2 winners of vote return (11 remain). Either endurance HOH comp or returnees will get immunity for one week. Mar 19th: 2nd individual evicted (10 remain) Mar 26th: 3rd individual evicted (last pre-jury eviction, 9 remain) Apr 2nd: 1st jury member (8 remain) Apr 9th: 2nd jury member (7 remain) Apr 16th: BB Fast Forward- 3rd jury member (6 remain), but then HOH, noms, POV, and 2nd eviction done that night- 4th jury member (5 remain) Apr 23rd: 5th jury member (4 remain) Apr 30th: 6th jury member (3 remain)-first part of final HOH begins May 4th (Sunday): final HOH finishes, final jury member (2 remain)- this could be taped the day before to give the jury questions done Sunday and edited for the finale. This also limits the time the final 2 have in the house alone to about 3 days or so. May 6th: Finale (winner and 2nd place) (now if they want to shorten it up a week, they can add a 2nd double eviction to the jury phase if they wanted to.) This is just speculation, but it should be a rough guide to how it's gonna work.

I was just reading on another site that it is possible to get a yearly subscription to Real if you call them...this, I did not know. The person made a good case for getting the yearly pass (if you download music). This is what she says.... "...with the extra season, it would be cheaper to get morningstar's full-year subscription for $69.99, rather than pay $80 by ordering each season separately. Except then you'd have to pay for the Reloader twice, at $7.50 a pop, bringing the yearly deal to $85.00. Though you'd get the bonus of $120 in free music downloads, if you take advantage of the $10/month deal (which I never have, but maybe I finally will). Plus, not having to cancel then reorder a month later . . . I think I'm just going to go ahead and spring for the year and buy the Reloader separately."

MM Sincebb1 you actually have made me think about this one LOL. Because I know between my Grand daughter and Hubby! They would use up the free music! And I was hesitating about the feeds this year because I had a hard time rationalising the $80 for 2 BB's! Now You gave me an internal argument for it LOL

Thanks for doing that work, Wilson! Maybe this will be a good season. It does sound a lot like the X-Factor season which sucked, though! Since & Seattlemom - heads up, if you have a Mac, Real is not compatible to download music. It says that you need a Windows platform, so I cancelled my Real account and only have it for BB.

So when did Big Brother, the social experiment of putting a group of unknowns in a house together to see how they can get along, become a nude-fest and experiment to see how many will "hook-up"? Geez, listening to their promos most all seem to say "I will be naked" or their hook to getting on the show is their naked pictures... Come on, I liked the ld fashioned interaction between the houseguests and the conflicts that came along with being stuck in a house together...

Ketchuplover- Does that mean that Gretchen is out totally? Man, if so, what is it with Allison's love affair with all things Donato?

I just wish we could have a season where people were not made to form alliances with people they know, or will be pared up with. Its soooooo much more fun to see the new people scramble around each other and try to figure each other out. Oh well, Im still thrilled to have a winter season..WOOT!

That would be great if they did. I think that is just the stupidest thing Alison and crew have ever done (and there's a long list of those stupid things y'know). It just encourages people not to eat, making sure they 1)remain skinny, therefore "attractive" and 2)make them hungry and grumpy adding up to "more drama"!

BTW mods, this thread seems to have turned into something other than Quick Q&A maybe it should be renamed or moved to another thread.

Here's a quick question to get the thread back on track, what date/time of the week are the shows scheduled? I am thinking it's Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, but I could be wrong. I desperately need to go through my "Shows to record" log and start figuring how I'm going to record everything I want to see (and keep up with said recordings!) Thanks in advance!

I have an on going subscription to real super pass. When I got it there was a deal and it was $24.95 ($27 with tax) every three months. Plus you get the 10 music downloads a month and a free game a month. I hate that reloader keeps going up each season.

Though you'd get the bonus of $120 in free music downloads, if you take advantage of the $10/month deal that used to be only for USA residents, just saying this because Canadian Superpass people need to look at the fine print before they make their choice. My quick Question is....what is better about the Reloader in comparison to the Free BBViewer? I've only had BB viewer in the past.

Anyone have the phone number for Real? I prefer to order over the phone so I can ask questions.
