Wow, 24 Hours a day, 2 HG must be touching and moving in a dance. They will have ear receivers and hear the music. They must create a schedule where 2 HG are dancing at all times..

What does this do to their curfew? LOL!!!

here we go, another chance for George to do more chicken noises.

It does sound like an interesting challenge though.. easy to accomplish.

Unfortunately it will not last all week nor will it create conflict.

The one cool thing is the curfew is on hold for the week.

I heard George asking Jamie on Friday to start teaching him how to dance. I really think the BB folks are pushing George hard as the potential winner.

Also - the challenge is starting at 3pm TODAY - so it is going all week!!!

Ok, I see now. There are 4 men and three women, so how's this going to work?

It's supposed to go until noon on Friday - that's a lot of dancing.

No conflict, unless Jamie starts slow dancing with Josh. Brittany will turn every shade of green ... pun intended.

Could be somewhat entertaining - WE won't be hearing the music they are dancing to, so they're gonna look a little funny. Gee, I must be desperate if I think THAT'S entertainment.

They're gonna have to keep dancing thru the live show and their nomination results. No one will have much of a chance to crack over them.

I don't think the number of males or females really matters. Two girls can dance together and even better -- two guys -- imagine how the message boards would light up then with the gay rumours.

They are asking for the beer ban to be lifted. CBS should give it to them if they win this challenge. Did anyone catch their wager? Eddie knew BB was out to get them on a technicality, so I think they were going to stay low... somewhere around 30%.

Guys dancing and touching with guys... Boy, if any of them ARE gay (which I doubt), then this should really bring out the best of them in the RR. LOL!!

Twiggyish - just like it usually seems to work out, the girls will have to work harder.

All that work for 20%---what a bunch of weenies

When Eddie was in the Red Room the other day he talked about how BB knew all the fears and dislikes of the HGs and how the challenges are set up to get someone. He gave the two water challenges as an example of Cass hating to get her hair wet. What'd ya think is asking a one-legged person to participate in a dance marathon a way to get at Eddie - or is it directed at someone else?

Real Weenies - heard the guys also say they wouldn't dance with each other. Maybe they'll have to give that one up!

On Survivor we get 5 people standing on a plank for hours in order to stay on the island and continue their chance at $1,000,000.

On Big Brother, we get 7 people dancing 24 hours a day for a couple bucks each.

There is no doubt why Survivor is the better show.

that makes things more interesting.

I hope there's beer involved

La33 - don't worry about Eddie. He was able to ride a bike and beat everyone else at sumo wrestling - he can probably dance, too.

You don't necessarily have to *dance* dance - from what I gathered, the rules would technically allow for two ppl to be sitting on the dance floor, holding hands or otherwise touching, and awake. Not even listening to the (cheesy) music. Like I said earlier, I think this is more aimed at getting more TV time for Jamie and George, than getting at Eddie. One could say Eddie has been targeted with every physical challenge so far, but he's done all right.

Oh yeah - the potential dance schedule for the first day runs like this (one hr. for each pair):
Josh and Cass
Josh and Brit
Jamie and Brit
Jamie and George
Curtis and George (!!)
Curtis and Eddie (!!!)
Cass and Eddie...and so on...

Curtis was not pleased to hear this schedule put up...I'm sure they will change up at some point...

This dance challenge sounds like a big test for the live feed updaters - back to 24/7 updates! :)

The dancing during the live show will be funny.

But it's too bad they won't be dancing during the banishment night. That would be too evil, just want we need.

Eddie's reaction to it was to bid 50% of their food budget. It's not targeted at him. If anything, he is more up for these challenges than the other people with 2 legs.

You got to give it to Eddie... he's a trooper. You don't ever hear him complain that he can't do something because of his handicap.

Eddie has commented in the past about dancing--he dances--it's no problem for him. One of his comments were how chicks (who dig him) will grind into him on the dance floor not realizing that he'll fall over because he can't balance.

And the immature, absurb and ridiculous anti-gay comments on these boards. I don't care who in the house is straight, gay or bisexual for that matter. Can't two people of the same gender dance together without someone trying to read something into it? I wish people would grow up, especially in this country (the States) and stop being so puritanical. Why is there even an issue with two guys dancing together? Two guys will stand closely together and talk with each other in a room. What's the difference? As far as touching, guys routinely shake hands don't they? That's touching hands.

I didn't catch the BB voice on this one, my audio wasn't clear. So the new challenge is to dance all day while the others sleep?

They have to start dancing today at 3 pm BB time and can't stop until noon Friday.

How do people think this will effect the level of interesting things going on? Now there are no sleep rules, these lazy bones will sleep all day except when eating or dancing now! What about the live show Thursday (it is not on Wed. for the 3 hour Survivor finale)?? If they are only hearing the music in their ears, will the viewers hear it that are watching the feeds? This could be the most boring week yet!!
