I just watched the launch show. I thought it was really good. I love the van and the big bed, and I kind of like the UFO guy...LOL When I read there was going to be a little person on the show, I had no idea she was a belly dancer. She is so cute.

It doesn't even seem like the same show this year. I don't know what I think of the hosts yet. They will take some getting used to I think.

Anyone know where I can find the launch show? Nothing on Usenet or torrents yet that I can find.

Not even lowly YouTube...

I was just going to pay for the VIP for feeds as well, but they've copied one of the worst things from BB US and delayed starting the feeds for another day so they can keep a spoiler secret.

It's been a few seasons since I really watched BBAUS. I loved their launch show! Too bad BBUS doesn't do something like this for us.

Christii - If you want to download the show from usenet, you need to have a subscription as well as a reader. You might want to check some of the torrent sites though because the launch show might be there now.

ETA - I thought you were looking for a usenet group. Sorry, I must have misunderstood.

Christiii, you have to have a usenet account, and a program for downloading the articles.

I use free grabit from www.shemes.com , and I also subscribe to their 20 gig usenet service for 12 bucks a month. Once you use usenet, you will cringe ever having to view tv shows on youtube or having to use torrents.

Plus, you will have your shows HOURS before they show up on youtube or before you finally get them grabbed from torrents (or mIRC).

oh gotcha! I dont want to pay for it, being iin a mac i dont know it it would even work. With the help of someone on the Australia BB site, i have dowloaded some mac things that should be ok to view these clips, and she sent me to websites like mininova, but the only bbas stuff is from 07. Geez people from OZ, get with it! Sheesh! just upload the thing for me!

Christiii - Right now, I'm using a pay as you go plan at Astraweb. If you sign up now, you can get 90GB for $25. When you run out, you can buy more or switch to another plan.

For a reader, I've always used NewsBin.

I finally pulled it off of Usenet. That was a pretty big download and I strongly suspect I didn't do it in a very efficient way.

Astraweb is great. Very cheap and you only pay for what you use.

Just to tout grabit for a minute if you use shemes servers: It has built in unlimited search, and what's great for beginners is it will automatically download, repair, extract and delete if you use the nzb files. In other words, you just download and click on the nzb file associated with the show you want to watch, and a few minutes later you look in the folder and there's your show ready to click on and watch.

eta, also you can download directly from search results. It's the greatest thing especially if you are looking for a song you like.

So does anybody have any favorites after watching the launch?

I can't help but like Saxon and Terri. Brigitte and Bianca look like they'll be fun to watch as will Ben.
