Seamonkey | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 11:18 am     Demeter, that sounds like, um.. Boot Camp!! They aren't getting paid THAT much, imo. |
Bigfan | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 11:22 am     Oh, lets see.........how much would someone have to pay me to lay by the pool all day, plays cards or nap????? If I could get paid for those activities, life would be good!! |
Demeter | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 11:39 am     Sea, boot camp? I don't get it. I didn't say eliminate those activities altogether, just not so much time devoted to them. Most of us work and have some extra time for our workouts and lounging in the pool...but not the majority of the time spent doing those things. Bring back the week-long challenges...but please, be more creative in doing them. The best challenge they had going was the potato clock sabotage. Not being pampered does not mean boot camp. |
Gusto | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 01:38 pm     What this show really needs is monkeys. Not big chimpanzees or little ones that could get stepped on, just maybe a half dozen medium sized monkeys. Contestants would have clean up after them, and feed and water them. Oh, and no cages. Definitely some monkeys. OK, maybe not ;-) |
Gusto | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 01:40 pm     OK I have reconsidered. No monkeys, but definitely a tornado siren at 8:00 a.m. PT Let's start the housemate's day with them a bit edgy. |
Therlin | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 01:42 pm     The potato clock savotage challenge. That was a classic. I loved it. |
Seamonkey | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 02:30 pm     Boot Camp was a "reality show" where they really were micro-scheduled and harrassed and tested. Yeah, I liked the potato clock sabotage too. And the Running of the Pugs.... pugs everywhere! |
Spygirl | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 03:56 pm     Gusto, you just want monkeys that so Stephanie from Letterman will have a real answer when she asks the houseguests of they "saw or touched any monkeys"  |
Bob2112 | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 04:04 pm     This monkey hopes it's not too late!

Wapland | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 05:39 pm     Just reading this thread has me ready to feel some monkeys Gosh how I've missed this devilish repartier. <spell check en francais would be so helpful> I am SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!! ONE MONTH EXACTLY AND I WILL BE GLUED HOLDING FAST TO ANY MONKEYS, SEA, HOTTUB OR OTHERWISE..... |
Gusto | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 05:41 pm     OK 6 medium sized monkeys AND the tornado siren at 8:00 a.m. Sound good? |
Twiggyish | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 07:41 pm     Bob, that's a cute monkey! |
Bob2112 | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 08:09 pm     Well Twiggyish, thanks for noticing. SpongeBob2112 blushes, but the red makes the yellow sponge turn orange! Oh tartar sauce! |
Kaili | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 08:28 pm     Update from bigbrothernation.com Last night on E! Television, Steve Kmetko had an interview with Arnold Shapiro. Although Arnold would not go into specifics about BB3 he did say that the interviews with eveicted houseguests will go back to the BB1 format where they we're done in front of a live studio audience. Thanks Alex for informing us about this. |
Therlin | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 09:37 pm     That's good news. And if the audience is comprised of actual fans, maybe they could get to ask a couple of questions. |
Wcv63 | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 10:37 pm     Ah yes...the sabatwa challenge!! And I enjoyed the heck out of the BB theme song written and performed by the BB1 cast. BB2 was more hostile...nittier and grittier; I found myself pissed off most of the time. Fun, fun, fun!!! Can't wait! |
Lurknomore | Monday, June 10, 2002 - 11:39 pm     OH GAWD you just reminded me I have that song downloaded (couldn't believe I found it on Napster). Bugged me though that Curtis had such an awesome voice and they used a cut of him clearing his throat. ACK. I also found the full BB theme song (which I hope they bring back...I really liked it) with tons of words we never heard during the shows. Remember they played it to our beloved Hampsters one night. Can't believe I found that on Napster too. Oh the Napster (and Hampster) glory days Have you all heard it??? |
Wink | Tuesday, June 11, 2002 - 07:38 am     Hey Wcv. Welcome back. |
Seamonkey | Tuesday, June 11, 2002 - 09:25 am     Please no siren.. for the sake of live feed posters who are using headphones Live studio audience for the interviews is a Good Thing!! I agree, more fun, less hostility!! |
Therlin | Tuesday, June 11, 2002 - 11:59 am     Other countries have had "intruders" after a few weeks. They introduce 2 people and they are both up for eviction the same week. |
Julieboo | Tuesday, June 11, 2002 - 12:11 pm     okay, maybe I am losing my memory, but what was the sabatwa challenge and what was the diff with the evicted interviews??? (I thought BB2 had the interviews with an audience...) |
Sunshinemiss | Tuesday, June 11, 2002 - 12:30 pm     Julie, season two had just Julie interviewing the evicted HG one-on-one, whereas season one had the evictees in a room with a LOT of other people, friends and family, two interviewers, and some occasional audience input. Much more fun and spontaneous, IMO. |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, June 11, 2002 - 12:39 pm     Wcv! Hi there!!! |
Kaili | Tuesday, June 11, 2002 - 01:26 pm     I kind of hope they do away with the Survivor people coming in- although I am always happy to get a bit of Survivor, it just didn't work for me. I would rather see random "regular" people get thrown in (and maybe somehow have a challenge where if one of the visitors won, they could boot a houseguest and take his/her place). |
Julieboo | Tuesday, June 11, 2002 - 02:01 pm     Thanks SSmiss! |
