Julie just said that 1/4 mil logged on for the concert!

Great segment on Early Show - they gave it more time than I expected.

I don't recall her getting a tour of the house led by the houseguests... maybe they scared her and she decided to forgo the tour and just head for the door.

wow- Glad I saw this thread!

I caught some of the segment. They showed clips of Sheryl performing and the HG's dancing and laughing and having a great time. Looked like a blast!

Then Arnold Shapiro was interviewed in FOTH.
He was asked why the producers gave the HG's a concert. He smiled and said they did this to give the HG's something fun, because nobody realizes what a hard game this is to be in. "It looks easy, but it's not".

Then they showed a short clip of last year's show when the 4 Survivors came as a surprise visit and spent the night. Arnold was asked "What about the no-contact with the outside world rule?"
He just shrugged and smiled, and said that rules are sometimes made to be broken...

Then Julie came on to plug Real Player, saying that not just the houseguests got to see the live performance...that thanks to Real Player, videostreaming made it available over the internet. Over 3/4 million people logged on to watch. (I thought they said that..maybe it was 1/4 million..)

Then the teaser: Watch the show tonite to see the performance and to find out if this year's surprise guest hung around to spend time with the HG's. <Pfffft!>.

Cut back to Julie Chen sitting in the Early Show studio with three co-hosts, who seemed to me to be poking fun of Julie and the BB thing, but maybe that's just my spin on it. Something about the way they asked Julie "Why a 2 hour show tonite"? I thought I detected a slight tone of sarcasm, perhaps a stifled snicker...(anyone else get that impression?)

Julie answered in an upbeat and enthusiastic manner, explaining that because of the football last Saturday, they have more to cram into tonites show.
"Like what?" they asked.
"We will see who Amy nominates for eviction, and who wins the power of veto and whether they use it."
That was it.

Julie seems really into the show this year compared to previous years, IMO.

Did you guys see a 2nd segment with SC? I had the wcbs feed, and they said at 8:00 more on her in this half hour. Then nothing until about 8:25 when they cut to the local news.

Babyruth: Yep, I definitely got the impression that the male host was overtly snide when asking Julie about the show tonight.

I'm thinking that Arnold knew that some of them would be irked by the returning houseguest. "No contact with the outside world" was ALREADY broken as we all know. This concert was there to placate them.

It never occurred to me that on Thursdays Julie has to immediately fly to L.A. right after the Early Show. Is she on the Early Show Friday mornings? That'd be rough. The show would end at 9 pm eastern. Six hour flight, plus losing 3 hours. Just in time, with little sleep. If she does this I'd be impressed.

Where does it say "no contact with the outside world"? That was in the opening of BB1's TV broadcasts, but I don't recall it ever having been said about this year. After Sept. 11, they learned not to promise stuff like that.

If anyone can find an exact time in BB3 where "no outside contact" was promised, I'd like to hear about it, because I've never caught it.

"Strangers, totally cut off from the outside world, coexist in an isolated house" is the way CBS bills the show on my cable company's description guide.

Arnold said, about the rules, "It's an exception to the rule, but rules are made to be broken sometimes."

Oh, and yes, they did say 3/4 of a million people tuned into the Real stream. :)

Okay, it played here about 35 minutes ago....I made a quicktime movie of it and posted it here:

http://www.kweer.net/bb3/

WARNING! This won't be here for more than a few hours AT MOST. It's a small screen and I didn't have time to adjust the contrst or brightness or anything so it may look dark to you, especially if you're on a PC (gamma differences between Mac and PCs)

In any case, you must have Quicktime installed to view thew file. It is about 4MB and if too many people d/l it. it will affect the bandwidth on my website.

If you d/l it and want to host it, feel free to do so and post the link here so folks can get it there.

I decided to do this cuz I had no idea they had that segment on Early Show til I read it here, so I thought I'd return the "heads up" notice with a quick vidcapture. Don't expect high quality, but at least you'll be able to see the segment.

(Oh yeah...I missed the first 5 seconds or so of it)

I had a feeling maybe cbs would finally promot Wed. BB3 for SC, and I tuned id just in time-well, from past experience they usually stick BB stuff at the very end of the Morning show. (I heard 3/4 mil alsom was supprised at that number.)

I suppose this cheap Summer production is begining to look not so bad in the "EYE" now, in my take, those hosts were just told to ask certain questions in order fo JC to give the promotion type of answers. Another words, everything was set ups, I didn't detect any mockery but maybe the hosts were not totally comfortable to pretend they knew or were interested with BB3.

I wish they have kept up the interview with evicted guest though. I understand it's all messed up by now since they brought in the new twist ....They might still bring that back later when it's time to build suspense.

Thanks SanFran -- I am NEVER up early enough for the early show. That was so cool to see what I missed!!!

Wow.. 750,000 for a webcast event.. That could be one of the biggest ones like that ever.. Or does anyone know of any that have been bigger? The number seems high though, especially given the press release about BB having 53K subscriber.. Clearly, quite a few RealOne subscribers tuned in too.. Last I heard there were about 600,000 of the, so they must have either added quite a few in the last weeks and especially days.. I am sure we will hear more info about this later though..
Thanks SFJF, btw.. Great to see since I missed both the Live concert and the Early Show.. I am predicting tonight will be the highest rated BB yet..

/sarcasm ON By my estimates, that would make 749,998 Sheryl Crow fans & 2 Big Brother Fans who watched the show last night! /sarcasm OFF :O

I'm only kidding, it's probably 3 BB fans. :)

"They had Dani lookin pure evil with them bugged out eyes lol"

Everytime Dani does that i think of Jeff Goldblum when turned into The Fly. :)

Can i start that off? Dani's new nickname is The Fly.
