I wonder...they spent an inordinate amount of time on the Hot Dog eating contest and the mountain climber... I think it is next week- it makes sense to hype it right before and also they go into the house tomorrow, so if it is Monday or Tuesday they will have some footage from the weekend to use.

Oh, but we had the lovely section on "pool safety", and the woman with her dual-life husband, yadda, yadda, yadda.

None of those are elements that promote CBS.

I never have understood why they don't support their own program more.

I hope they don't pick that Frankel guy to be the regular host. I like the man from Hollywood Squares much better.
Sorry, only one cup of coffee...I have temporarily forgotten his name! It will come to me.

I think CBS is a little embarrassed by the reality shows, even tho they are so popular. They don't really support any except Survivor, and even their coverage of that has declined some.

I'm sorry..... :( I can't remember where I saw it, but I know it was here somewhere.
I swear they said they'd be unveiled on the Early Show today. It would make more sense for them to do it the day before or Weds morning, but since EW already has them, you'd think CBS would want people going to their sites???

Now I feel really DUMB!! Sorry guys!

By Rob Owen, Post-Gazette TV Editor
This year's roster of contestants won't be announced until tomorrow on "The Early Show," but Shapiro said the contestants are champing at the bit to get into the redecorated "Big Brother" house.

Mygetaway, I thought I read it somewhere too! It made sense if they were launching the CBS site today to do it then, but hey, Sense/CBS...????

I think the shooting at LAX probably bumped the spot. Too bad they didn't bump somtheing like the pool lady. I fell back asleep after the lady with the bad husband so I was worried I had missed something. Now I am reviewing all the bios on the CBS site. It is sad that we all knew the people before the site. CBS always seems to be a day late on their infor.

Nope - but there is an article on the CBS Early show site - here it is:

"Big Brother 3: Meet The Cast
NEW YORK, July 5, 2002
(CBS) "Big Brother" is back. "Big Brother 3," that is. It's the third season of the reality TV-show that "coops-up" and cuts-off 12 strangers from the rest of the world, each trying to win a half-million dollar grand prize.

The Early Show’s Julie Chen hosts the show and she has our exclusive "first look" at this season's contestants.

"Big Brother 3" premieres Wednesday, July 10, at 9 p.m. ET/PT, 8 p.m., on CBS.

This week, 12 strangers will enter the Big Brother house forced to live completely isolated from the rest of the world with cameras watching their every move. Producers say you can expect a-moral connivers like last year's winner, Will as well as folks with sweet integrity like Sheryl.

"I would say, speaking of eye candy, I would say everybody's sweet tooth in America will be more than satiated," says Executive Producer Arnold Shapiro.

And to avoid last year’s incident, where one guest physically threatened another, CBS did an extensive background check.

"We're as certain as humanly possible, certain as we can be, that we've got 12 people who understand that the threat of violence, or violence itself, zero tolerance," says Shapiro.

No violence, but with any luck, plenty of backstabbing.
