Here's how last show should have been handled
John | Saturday, September 30, 2000 - 06:55 pm  Show opens, the 7 banished HG's come in, but not interviewed, Julie gets right to business and tells Curtis he's third place and to come out. At :15 mark, Julie opens the envelope and tells the winner. Eddie is told he has 15 minutes to compose himself and Josh exits house to studio for interview. At :30 mark, Eddie comes out and does his interview. At :45 mark, Julie conducts a group session with all 10 reunited HG's. Going by this, everything and everyone would have been handled correctly, especially with Josh. Probably would have been better with a 90 minute show, with final 30 devoted to whole group. |
Prince | Saturday, September 30, 2000 - 07:05 pm  They knew they only had 60 minutes yet they put some much fluff that the final 2 had less than 5 minutes left of airtime total when they got out of the house. Josh & Eddie should have been afforded the same family reunion/houseguest reunion similar to Curtis. Bottom line, 60 minutes wasn't enough time to do justice to the finale. They should have left it alone Saturday 2 hr finale. Survivor finale rating 4.5 vs Big Brother rating 7.8. Need I say more. |
Shipwreck | Saturday, September 30, 2000 - 07:48 pm  It certainly could have been better. Wanted to see the last guy come out of the house and fireworks and a marching band. |
Green | Sunday, October 01, 2000 - 11:54 pm  ... plus all the roundtabled houseguests would've been linked via electro-shock group therapy buttons and whenever someone objected to anyone else they could shock them and vice-versa ... just like on that one Simpson's episode ... Julie Chen would hold the master shockboards which could override any members shocks and also would administer shocks to the group to get their attention ... |
Enbwife | Monday, October 02, 2000 - 05:43 pm  I'm still P***ed off with CBS for the rushed show. I was talking to friends at work today, and the concensus was everyone was happy with the order of winners, but really peeved at how rushed they were, and the number of commercials they threw in there. I think they should have allowed 2 hours, gave more time to Curtis, and equal amount of time to Josh, showing him leave the house and greet the former HGs, then extra time to Eddie, who also was seen leaving and greeting everyone. Also, the pug should have been brought back for the reunion. Maybe BB2 will be different!!! At least we can hope so.  |
Karuuna | Monday, October 02, 2000 - 06:12 pm  Just for grins: in this week's issue of Entertainment Weekly there was a funny parody that said: CBS announces that BB2 will be ten CBS executives locked in the house for 90 days. Still no one will watch, but CBS shows dramatically improve. |
