Assuming Gerry goes this week, what's the longest...
Jan | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 12:00 pm     that one of the older HG's has lasted on BB? What weeks did george and Kent go out? what's the longest that one of the older female HG's has made it? Can an older HG ever win this game? |
Crazydog | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 12:13 pm     Kent was evictee number 6 (I am counting Justin as #1). If Gerry goes on Thursday he would have lasted one week longer than Kent. Monica finished in third place. She was 40 years old and I think that counts as "older". I think she did quite well. If she had won that last HoH she would have been the winner. |
Woodpecke® | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 12:21 pm     I am 43, and I am fairly certain it is impossible for a 40 plus person to win this game unless there were others for them to talk to and strategize with. If I was 40 and on this show, I would spend a big portion of my day exercising, tanning, and then, for fun, constantly saying hello to the internet audience and telling them things I was thinking. I would play to the cameras and laugh my butt off when I saw the tapes. I would need to have much more humor than these people give us. Nominations and evictions would never be a mystery with me around, I would appreciate the fact that people took time from their busy day to watch me act like an idiot. |
Silversamba | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 12:23 pm     I don't even know why BB recruits anyone over 35 except to make them look like a buffoon. They ought to be honest and just get the young, beautiful people they really want on there instead of even trying to get anyone else. |
Abby | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 12:35 pm     I guess if you are an older person, you had better be a Banker, Plastic Surgeon or a Film Producer to get any respect from future Houseguests, all others stay home! |
Mystery | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 04:58 pm     I think if the "decoy" tactic hadn't gone horribly awry, Sheryl would have made a run for the money. |
Ketchuplover | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 05:25 pm     I think George was 5th from the end. |
Curtisahahahaha | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 06:45 pm     I thought Nicole was old-ish. |
Chiparock | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 06:54 pm     Nicole LOOKED fifty-ish but was only about 33. |
Bmh | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 06:54 pm     Nicole was only 31..that aint old really |
John32070 | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 07:51 pm     George was the 5th (out of 10) to leave BB1. Kent left after Justin, Sherri, Autumn, Shannon, and Mike. If Gerry goes this week, he will have outlasted 6 others (including Amy who has come back in of course). So by my count, George and Kent both lasted the same amount, and Gerry will last one more week, but I hope it's more than that (darn Jason ) |
Wilsonatmd | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 07:55 pm     Actually, on the British BB, I think in 3 years most of the contestans have been between 21 and 30, this year had only one person older than 35, and he quit (actually he escaped....he climbed over the roof of the house)...In fact not a lot of BB's that I can remember have had contestants as old as ours...BB is considered a youth-oriented show I guess.. |
Curlyq | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 08:18 pm     Oh, man. Nicole was the same age I am now. I'm "old-ish"! I should have suspected it when people started calling me "ma'am". |
Jimmer | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 08:20 pm     While they aren't very successful on BB, the odd thing is that "older" people seem to be the most successful at winning Survivor. Very strange. |
Cliotheleo | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 08:25 pm     Well isn't Roddy like 57 or so? |
Classycassfan | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 09:19 pm     Oh my 40ish is old??? America is still the home of the baby boomers isn’t it??? When I think of old I think of someone like my Mother in the house with those kids…. She is 80. But she just informed me that she could handle them well she is use to dealing with her grandchildren… If she didn’t have the darn wheelchair from her stroke she’d give them a run for the money!!!! Of course Marci would die the first time she picked his fork up off the floor blew on it and said I have raised 21 kids and have not lost a one of them to a germ go on and finish your dinner…. Or Dani…. Honey your abs are fine… but you need to do some time on a Stairmaster for that booty…. Roddy dear don’t speak above everyone else… use words we all can understand… and stop reading the readers digest in the bathroom. Oh Amy Amy Amy dear did your Momma forget to tell you that you are a representative of who they are and, I am sure you Momma is not a beer guzzling, wine sloshing princess… come on now I know you can stand on your own two feet and act like a Lady… Jason you are a grandparents dream… but could you help out Amy on her morals? And Gerry… Son your Momma taught you, your wife has reminded you… wash your hands… And we will hope for an AC for a pedicure hopefully America will help you out so the other children will quit with the bad jokes. |
Draheid | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 09:23 pm     Oh, now, Classycassfan, you HAVE to finish this ... you've still got Lori, Tanya, Chiara, Eric, Josh, and Arnold Shapiro to go through ... surely you could add a little for us? PLEASE!!  |
Squidward | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 09:28 pm     Is this true? A HG from the UK BB escaped over the roof? That is too funny. |
Classycassfan | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 09:42 pm     Ok lets see Lori sweetie going ballistic on someone whom you have only known for a few days is not a good thing… Tanya you are a sweet girl but no one can tell that, you are more than a baby machine with good tits… Now go home an learn how to be a real Mom (ok Mom really didn’t like Tanya), Eric, my dad was a firefighter and even though I have a soft spot for them… you need to really do your own personal care and quit having that girl do it for you…. Josh I don’t care what your ethnic back ground is… Nazi is one of those words that no one should use… now go stand in that corner till I tell you to come out!!!! Chiara you need to be a bit more than Jason’s opposite where he is the grandparents dream you are the nightmare… no one wants to see your sex positions.. I just know that there is a nice girl in there please let her come out an visit here. Arnold oh my there is just so much to say to you…. How about we call this your last year at BB and find us someone who really knows what Big Brother is about and doesn’t cast all his buddy’s friends on this show. Needless to say Momma would not get on the show for real. |

Classycassfan | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 10:02 pm     sorry Draheid this one is not as funny ... I lost my co-horts maybe we will try again tomorrow. |
Classycassfan | Monday, August 26, 2002 - 10:15 pm     thank you thank you thank you |
Realtvfan | Tuesday, August 27, 2002 - 09:02 am     Woodpecke I too am old enough not to care too much about how long I lasted in the house. If I received the silent treatment Gerry endured, I would be spending my time making up skits for the Internet crowd. For example, I would take off my shoe and start to dial it just like the old Maxwell Smart scenes. Commenting all the while dialing, "All this technology for a shoe phone and it is still rotary dial!" "Hello Chief. This is ____ Smart, Agent 86, and I have infiltrated BB, I mean Chaos, headquarters. I'm looking for Agent 13 in the pillows of the couch right now." I could go on for 25 minutes for that BB "phone call home" easy. I could also go on and on with skits from Bewitched, Gilligan, Hogan Heroes, I dream of Jeanie, I love Lucy, Beverly Hillbillies and many more. Monica sets the records to beat for those of us in the 40+ crowd. Both for longest lasting and for best scream scenes. Kent is a very close second on the scream scenes. |
Sharebear | Wednesday, August 28, 2002 - 04:59 pm     I hope Gerry gets evicted,,,and not because I don't like him,,,I feel the way people are treating him is really poor sportsmanship,,,Gerry has been everyones stomping mat. He needs out of there and back to his loved ones. I must say though,,,if he knows this is going on,,,he is a very strong man,,,,if he doesn't I hope he doesn't fall to pieces. JMO |
Bernie | Wednesday, August 28, 2002 - 05:30 pm     Classycassfan, that was amazing! Bravo! Encore! I'm not poking fun here, because I was thinking this before I got to your posts, but didn't Cassandra get really close to the end? I can't remember how old she was, but she was such a great lady that she seemed to come from a different era than her housemates. Maybe she wasn't older at all, but she seemed so much more intelligent and sensible than the rest! |
Classycassfan | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 12:48 pm     ack Bernie I just found your post sorry for not replying sooner. first off thank you had fun doing the pardoy. And Cassandra made it half way I think she was the 2nd to last female to live only Jamie made it to the final 4, because she never got nommed. I believe Cass was early 40s but she might of still been in her 30's |
John32070 | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 01:23 pm     Cassandra was 37 at the time I believe. Third oldest behind George and Karen. |
