Ryn | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:16 pm     psst - yes - we can turn it off.. but we can complain too - just like others complain about other parts of BB ;) (me thinks the next time he sees Ryan complain about anything bb related....... ) |
Sanfranjoshfan | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:17 pm     I agree, too....it IS shocking how graphic they can get....but I think this thread was meant to discuss how "disgusting" it is. Personally, if their talk actually "disgusted" me, I wouldn't click on the "I agree" link in RealPlayer. I will go out of my way to be shocked, titillated, amused, and dumbfounded....but why would I embrace an "entertainment" venue (like the live feeds) that actually disgusted me? |
Sanfranjoshfan | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:18 pm     I dunno....maybe it's all just a matter of semantics... :-) |
Ryn | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:18 pm     I turned it off an hour ago after verifying they were actually saying all that stuff. |
Ryanc2002 | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:20 pm     When have I EVER complained about anything BB? LOL. |
Ark | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:23 pm     My thought exactly Bbwatcher. I can't believe they found so many people that have no personal dignity, not to mention respect for their family. I might discuss sex with my best friend or husband but I don't do it where all of my parents friends can hear it. |
Crazyintexas | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:24 pm     Actually, I don't have the live feeds. I read the live feed posts on this site. You are right, I don't have to read any of it and am trying to just skim over the parts I don't like to enable me to read some of the things I do find amusing. I enjoyed this site a great deal last year, just don't remember the house guests being this graphic. |
Zachsmom | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:24 pm     They need to change the FOTH music to circa 1970's porno flick.. "chica chica bow wow chica chica bow wow ooohhhh ahhhhhh chica chica bow wow chica chica bow wow " |
Maryann | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:30 pm     I feel like the majority here and I also feel somewhat ambushed-this was not the way the other BB programs went! Things have gotten seamier and if the former HGs did get explicit it seems to me that it happened way into the game and that they didn't get so graphic. Also, it seems that they talk MORE about sex and sexual activities more than anything else. The bit with the two talking about their BMs really disgusted me. I understand that some folks are in High School and yes, I heard this talk when I was in Junior High School-but these folks are in their twenties and thirties and fifties...there's more to life! I'm thinking of the program as TALK DIRTY WITH BIG BROTHER, anymore! |
Crazyintexas | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:31 pm     LOL Zachsmom!!! |
Sanfranjoshfan | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:34 pm     "Also, it seems that they talk MORE about sex and sexual activities more than anything else." I think that the producers got just what they were looking for....a lot of uninhibited pretty bodies. From what I gather, this year's BB ratings are the best yet! Sex sells... |
Sanfranjoshfan | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:36 pm     Hmmmmmmm.....Zachsmom, it sounds like you really know your 70's porn! You must've been a wild one back in the days of "free love" and the sexual revolution! LOL (just kidding!) |
Zachsmom | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:44 pm     I have a stict "Don't ask Don't tell" policy SanFran.. (actually in the 70's I was more interested in the Brady Bunch..not Brady does the Bunch.. ) |
Bob2112 | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:45 pm     I'm wondering about the "have been" part of that statement, SanFran. <...I'm thinking someone liked Sam the butcher...> |
Mystery | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:51 pm     I too was a Brady Bunch fan during the original run; we thought Sam's line "You can't beat Sam's meat!" was the height of risque wit. |
Julieboo | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:54 pm     Yeah, Alice! (bad joke. Go ahead, boo & hiss...) |
Serena | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:55 pm     if you took out all the conversations from some of the houseguests concerning some aspect of their bodies or sexlives, it would be clear how little they have to say or have going on mentally. I've never understood how talking about popping pimples (dermatologically bad, by the way) or how and how much you work out, or bowel movements, or how you style your hair or how you rank in looks compared to the other houseguests (can we say Chi-orr-a?) constitutes actual conversation. Okay, maybe once in a while, but when that's all you talk about....?? |
Inkydinkyspider | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 02:58 pm     Sex is overrated and overtalked....it just goes to show you that some of these houseguests are academically stunted and emotionally at a pre adolescent stage. (c) |
Maris | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 03:04 pm     Remember one thing, one of the questions each of the HGs is asked is whether they would be willing to have a sexual encounter in the BB house. Roddy revealed that question last night so it was obvious what BB was looking for when they asked that question. Chiara said she was asked the question as well. Danielle was not asked that question. So it looks like they asked certain people. Looks like they picked them right. (c) |
Bob2112 | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 03:08 pm     Zachsmom and Mystery, Be aware that Julieboo will be actively recruiting you two for the Brady Bunch Trivia game that is slated to replace the Riddle Me This... thread in the games folder just as soon as BB3 has concluded.  |
Maryann | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 03:10 pm     (actually in the 70's I was more interested in the Brady Bunch..not Brady does the Bunch..) <--- ZachsMom == HAHAHAHA!!! Now THAT was funny! Sex is overrated and overtalked....it just goes to show you that some of these houseguests are academically stunted and emotionally at a pre adolescent stage. (c)-->InkyDinkySpider == Well said! I agree and wish "I" had said that! === I think that the producers got just what they were looking for....a lot of uninhibited pretty bodies. From what I gather, this year's BB ratings are the best yet! <--SanFranJosh === Ain't it the truth! |
Mystery | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 03:11 pm     Bob, what a hoot! I saw a "pop up" episode of the Brady Bunch not too long ago and they focused on a magazine that was on a table in the living room for pretty much the whole run of the series, and a textbook that was used by all of the kids at one point. |
Draheid | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 03:14 pm     Although I never heard it personally, I was always under the impression that the original risque line on family television was on Leave It To Beaver when June Cleaver said, "Ward, don't you think you were a little rough on the Beaver last night?" |
Max | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 03:15 pm     ROFLMAO, Draheid! |
Mystery | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 03:17 pm     That does beat the Sam's meat line! But I never saw any Leave it to Beaver episodes until long after the Brady Bunch episode had already made an indelible impression. |
