Sea, I think "Celebrity Mold" would be an excellent name for this edition of CBBUS.

All the rumors so far just make me dread this. Not a shred of positive anticipation.

I'm with you. I feel like it is just "sullying" our house. Maybe if they did it somewhere else but in our Big Brother House. I really hate the idea.

Now isn't that silly ? LOL

Honestly, I don't get "dread" over a variation of the BB theme.

Don't like the idea, don't watch it. Some of us are looking forward to having fun with it.

And if not, sometimes something horribly awful is fun too. LOL. Again, it's all in how you view the world.

I can't imagine them getting someone like Flava Flav, Tiffany Pollard, Janice Dickerson or people with similiar head strong personalities. There are live feeds to deal with and no outside people interacting and intervening if need be with them. BB wants people they can control and who will listen to them. BB needs to quickly edit shows and needs footage without a lot of cursing. Those 3 would never listen to BB. The shows they were on had plenty of time to edit shows and do reshoots if needed to get what they wanted.

Hopefully, it is still ok to have a differing view?

And I don't think I have to have a specific attitude.

I view the world and tv based on last experience with what I like or don't.

Personally one season of BB is sufficient, but I did hope for people who haven't made a career change to being on every reality show their agents can get them on.

Grooch.. I think they have plenty of practice bleeping out things on the shows and there is a delay in live feeds, but they only seem to use that to censor discussion of production, so I doubt they are too worried about language.

Yes, and I posted my differing point of view, so yeah, I would guess that's okay. :-) I don't know why every time I post MY different point of view, people wonder if it's okay to have a different point of view. It's kind of circular.

My point is that we don't even know who's going to be on it and people are already being negative. *I* don't see the point in that.

Life is a lot better if we look for things to be positive about, rather than be negative about. And I try to stay away from posting in threads if I don't like the show. I figure it's not very nice to the people who do. So that's my differing point of view. Hope it's okay.

Sea, I remember Paul coming out of the DR complaining that BB wanted him to cut down on the swearing because BB was having a hard time editing around it.

Also, I remember reading here that BB won't do another all stars season because they couldn't control the cast the last time they had one. If the cast wanted things they would sing, not get up, talk about production, etc, til they got what they wanted.

But it is BB. Who knows?

Why wouldn’t it be okay? This is a discussion board.

I have some doubts about how this will work but I’m also looking forward to seeing what happens. Could be fun. If it isn’t enjoyable, I don’t have to watch and there’s always BB coming in the summer. :-)

Wow - I agree with this a million percent!!

I'll probably watch even if its a train wreck, since that's what BB usually is. Still wishing for another BBOTT, though.

Agreed Rosem.

I am hopeful Celebrity BB will be a fun experience.

TV is soooo boring in the winter and this show may help with the Feb, March snow bound blues!

I've actually stopped posting in a couple threads of TV shows that I really enjoy because of the relentless need for some people to continue to post they hate the show.

I agree. I don't understand the need that some people to post "I hate this show" - why are they reading the thread if they aren't interested in the show? Besides, why waste the energy hating something?

I understand people coming in and saying why they won't watch (any more). But I have to admit the constant negativity does take the fun away from other people.

I loved those shows and the Brett Michaels one. They were so outrageous.

Never intended to post once the season started unless I liked it and started watching. I was just kind of expressing a feeling about the whole thing as a big brother edition.

Sorry folks !

Missy, no worries. It's fine to pop in and say 'this doesn't look like something I'd like, and here's why...'

I think folks are talking about the people who go on and on and on about how awful something is. :-)

Just a gentle reminder to be thoughtful is all that was intended.

Sure ... there are plenty of things that I like and dislike about BB and different seasons of BB and I post about my likes and dislikes. I do that with other shows and topics as well. It's what makes this a discussion board.

However, if I dislike an entire show and have nothing positive at all to say about it, I don't feel there is much point in repeatedly posting about how much I dislike it. It's just kind of redundant and pointless.

I am holding off on Celebrity BB until I hear who will be on it; if some of the people that have been detailed here are the celebrities I will likely be taking a pass, LOL.

I forget, are they planning to have a weekly show?

Thanks for that, Bowl4sport...let me clear that up.

I do have Administrator after my name. However, I also participate in discussions.

When I am making an official announcement it will either be:
Posting AS Administrator or Moderator (you won't see Karuuna as the poster).
Or I will make it in bold and sign it officially. (Since this an official policy post, I'm doing it in BOLD.)

We don't get paid for this job. None of the moderators or administrators. The only reward is being able to hang out with all of you and discuss stuff. So we do participate at the same level, and subject to the same rules you all are as well.

Hope that helps. :-)
Karunna, Moderator & Administrator

Hi Karuuna,

Interesting. So you post as Karuuna when it is just for yourself, and then as Karunna when it is official?

J/K I saw your typo.

Unless it is NOT a typo?
