Archive through September 24, 2002
Kapow | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 07:57 pm     This is it for me! I just cancelled my RP GoldPass, which I had planned to keep after the show for sports, etc. I am SICK of this FOTH and made sure RP knew it. Of course, CBS is probably the culprit, but why support either entity? |
Alegria | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 08:00 pm     what kapow said. I cancelled my RP goldpass tonight. |
Ziggystardust | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 08:10 pm     Ya know BB, it's not like I'm not gonna watch the show on Wednesday...you got me, you'll get you're ratings, for gawds sake stop with the FOTH! I can't believe I watched FOTH for so long today for more FOTH when they mention anything except danielles rewind conversations!!!!! venting, venting, venting....I had to do it! |
Bettyrubble | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 08:12 pm     This FOTH crap is ridiculous!!! |
Meggieprice | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 08:15 pm     I am beyond annoyed. These women have been decompressing and talking the game since Jason left. They are going to drink and you bet they will talk about the questions. Like Ziggy said- even if I know what happens I will still watch. Blech. |
Screeminmeemie | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 08:18 pm     Gee, I hope it's a tie, but nobody calls in and votes 'cause we all turned off the live feeds and the tv and took a walk outside on Wednesday evening. How refreshing. I feel like a graduate, because this is my last year doing this stint. (I can dream can't I?) |
Countrymeadow | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 08:22 pm     Feeds just came back on from FOTH. The second Dani mentioned what had happened today we got FOTH. This is absolutely crazy. 2 more days of this BS and i'm so over BB |
Twinkle | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 08:22 pm     If we're going to have to put up with some BB staff person hovering over the FOTH button from now until Wednesday, what's the point in their even continuing the live feeds? We've missed hours of stuff that will be condensed into a 10 minute segment. Next year, why don't they simply have a disclaimer when we sign up, listing specific black out situations? I wouldn't be so ticked off with this whole thing if it weren't for the deceptive spiel they give at the end of each show to entice unsuspecting viewers to sign up for the feeds. |
Wendo | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 08:31 pm     Someone is trigger happy with the FOTH button. Sheesh. Good gawd BB, give it up. We're still paying customers here. *snort* |
Krossd | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 08:59 pm     ....complain all you want here (and I certainly understand, believe me) but if we spent the time writing it to the Real and CBS folks it COULD do something, have some impact... think about it... 50 or 60 or even 200 people watching the feeds, writing them EVERY TIME this gets excessive... that would be representative of 100 people not bothering to write. The thing is to get Real.com ticked at CBS for advertising 24/7 and not giving it. Next year they may bring that up in the negotiations. IF they are inandated with ticked off people. It is the only way to have impact...so, for the 3rd time today I am going over to CBS and punk in my trusty already written GGGGGGrrrrrrrrrr mail to them. (and I promise not to write it here again  |
Ziggystardust | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 09:00 pm     This is a little ditty, sung to the BB FOTH theme...sorry about 3rd verse (getting irritated) This is what you will see... When you tune in to the CBS live feeds Houseguests plotting and schem-ing thought you'd see it all but found out you were dream-ing Spend all of your hard earned cash find out that A.S. has F'd U in the A** If all we see is the door betcha we won't return and subcribe to BB-4 Try it, it works!!! Mod's feel free to get rid of this if verse 3 offends!! |
Machellewatches | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 09:10 pm     Thought you knew it all? but you won't. LOL |
Tracyck | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 09:43 pm     Somebody has put together a petition if anyone cares to check it out and sign - hey, you never know... http://petitiononline.com/BB3Live/petition.html |
What555456 | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 09:45 pm     I would like to thank all the posters on this thread. It is the first thread I have read in a long time that either is not about Dani or has not changed from the original topic to debating Dani! Although, I did notice that Countrymeadow came very close to blaming Dani for the renewal of FOTH after it came back on for a little while! <g> |
Another_Lurker | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 10:02 pm     Petition signed, now let's see. Also, thanks to whomever set this up. |
Another_Lurker | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 10:04 pm     Oh, and another thing, have emailed CBS 2x today, keep reminding us Krossd..... |
Sunrisedd | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 10:21 pm     I am no.222 Thanks for starting the petition. |
Countrymeadow | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 10:28 pm     Always remember that you can write directly to Arnold Shapiro Productions at aspproductions@aol.com I've written CBS a few times today and intend to email them a piece of my mind ( what's left of it after listening to the foth music ) |
Bastable | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 10:41 pm     Sadly, Arnold Shapiro will never learn that fan participation drives Big Brother. It's not enough for him to cut us out of the voting process. He also wants to hide events from us... come on! We're the fans! If we're willing to pay to subscribe to the feeds, we're definitely going to tune in on Wednesday night, even if we know the outcome. We're fans! |
K9lover1 | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 10:49 pm     Based on this evening - tomorrow should be nothing but FOTH. I'm cancelling as well. And...I did e-mail CBS. Not that they care. |
Pugholio | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 11:12 pm     It's a television show. Television shows are there only to provide an audience for advertisers. ANYTHING that takes away potential interest, therefore, potential viewers, is a very bad thing for a producer. Phone voting can be abused. The best way to avoid the abuse is to eliminate it. The best way to make a large majority of the audience lose interest in the final show is to let the cat out of the bag beforehand. The few internet subscribers there are probably haven't generated the income made from two commercials. Not two per show, just plain two. In other words, the reality is that considering the way tv people think, anything that is seen beyond the shows that are aired is a great big extra bonus. You won't even catch their attention without 300-400 thousand signatures. |
Braveheart61901 | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 11:18 pm     Just now, Danielle and Lisa talking about homes for which Danielle has looked at floor plans. Danielle is describing the homes and they're not talking anything about BB.....and we get FOTH. WTF???? |
Freya | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 11:46 pm     PUGHOLIO... I for one am offended to be told I don't count if someone had told Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King,Jr. or Richard Nixon that they didn't matter look how different the world would be.Good , Bad or neither ... look at how one persons actions can change the rest of the world. I for one count even if I am standing alone to stand up for myself. "I COUNT" It may change nothing but I will have had my turn to say what needs to be said by all of us. |
C1mag | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 11:58 pm     I can't believe this.... I've been gone all night I turn it on and it's the damn foth! This is ridiculous! DAMN!! |
Grannygrunt | Tuesday, September 24, 2002 - 05:31 am     Ok, I signed too. I don't care if no one ever sees it or does anything about it, I know that I tried. |
