John32070 | Sunday, June 15, 2003 - 08:00 am     How soon til we see this year's suckers...er, I mean houseguests LOL? Last year someone posted pics of the BB3 people here about 2-3 weeks before the show. |
Lurknomore | Sunday, June 15, 2003 - 12:08 pm     Now Now...please let's call them what they are...HAMPSTERS! And my guess is that Arnies crew is still scrounging the strip clubs and Belly's (blech) of the world trying to find this yummy crop for our enjoyment...or certainly for their hehe |
Tabbyking | Sunday, June 15, 2003 - 02:10 pm     okay, i am going out on a limb here and say the 'third hampster in the house' wins the whole damn thing! you are right about them being hampsters. i can see their little balls. |
Laisey | Sunday, June 15, 2003 - 03:58 pm     My guess is somewhere around July 4. I'm basing that on the idea that they won't release pictures until the HGs are in the house. I remember that on BBI they went in the house on July 3 at night and I think that on BBII it was within a day or 2 of that date. I have a vague recollection that last year they entered the house 5 days before the first broadcast. If that holds true this year, we could see promos as early as the night of July 3. |
Tabbyking | Sunday, June 15, 2003 - 09:08 pm     i think you are right about having 5 days in the house last year before they aired the first show. at first i was thinking 3 days, but 5 seems more like it. |
Ketchuplover | Monday, June 16, 2003 - 07:45 pm     hmmmmm |
Tabbyking | Monday, June 16, 2003 - 07:57 pm     well thought-out phrase, ketchuplover! what hampster do you have to win this whole thing? or will you say, "he's/she's the winner" under each person when the bios come up? LOL |
Honeybeebaby | Monday, June 16, 2003 - 08:29 pm     The Houseguests move into the house July 5th. And, there names and profiles will be released on July 4th. Be sure to check out the CBS Website July 4th. I read this information at http://www.mortystv.com/big_brother.shtml#media |
Tabbyking | Wednesday, June 18, 2003 - 11:11 am     well, i can't believe no one noticed my little balls comment...aha! made you look. anyway, i meant the little plastic round containers you can put a hampster in so they roll around and get exercise. after i typed it, however, my daughter started laughing and said it sounded like something else. something I typed had a double-entendre? moi? lol anyway, i can't wait to see this new crop, either. they are probably a load of crop, but maybe there will be a few likeables in the group. i still pick 'third hampster in the house' to win at the end... |
Tabbyking | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 11:02 am     well, we will see them soon. some of them. some we have already seen and doubt their veracity. i made 3 guesses about this latest BB and two of them appear to be true. (exes and filming the evictees). my third guess is that 3rd hampster in the house wins the whole damn thing... but i still agree with those who have posted that this show's premise was 'strangers' put together, not people who have known each other before. i was already bothered by the bellys connection on this and other reality shows, but couples who actually were 'together' at some point? hardly strangers. i am starting to think of this show as "why bother?" LOL |
Bmh | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 11:09 am     They said July 4th!! That means this Friday!!! I am excited!! It said in Variety the youngest is 19 and oldest is 59...But don't you need to be at least 21 to apply for BB???..WTF is up with that lol 13 Houseguests...7 men, 6 women...Very Interesting I can't wait. |
Laisey | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 11:22 am     I think you are legally an adult at age 18 as far as entering into contracts, etc. But that brings up an interesting question. What is the legal drinking age in California? If it's 21 and they furnish the HGs beer or wine, what happens if the 19-year old drinks any. Maybe we could arrange a raid -- now that would be reality. |
Wargod | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 11:25 am     21 is the legal age in California. |
Bmh | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 11:27 am     wow then the 19 year old is screwed...he or she has to be around 12 other people that are gonna be drinking..some getting drunk more than others lol...That doesn't seem fair..poor kid. |
Wargod | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 11:31 am     Hubby and I take turns when we go to parties or out with friends staying sober. Some of my best memories are being cold sober with a bunch of drunk friends, LOL. Staying sober in the house might have some added bonuses...like listening to people who are drinking with loose tongues. |
Laisey | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 11:33 am     Thanks for the info. I hope his/her age doesn't keep them from providing alcohol. I'm not looking for alcoholics, but there have been occassions when a beer or two made things more interesting. We probably would not have had the hot tub scene without the sangrias. |
Therlin | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 11:35 am     Maybe the 19 year old will be the most down the earth and well adjusted person (if previous seasons are an indication) |
Bmh | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 11:37 am     Well not all seasons LOL.. BB2's youngest Houseguest was Justin Sebik..The psycho with the knife..so who knows |
Monkeyboy | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 11:40 am     The 19year old was probably scouted.  |
Tabbyking | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 12:23 pm     First, let's put an end to all the suspense: 21 is the minimum legal drinking age (MLDA) everywhere in the USA i just googled this. i had thought it was true, but wanted to make sure. i remember when i lived in massachusetts, my boyfriend's brother was 20. he had been legally drinking since the age of 18 and they changed the law to 21 and he had to stop for several months. that was in the mid 80's. i do know there were several different ages between different states for many years, but it caused problems with teens running across borders, etc. now we all have 21 as our legal age. |
Lurknomore | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 12:32 pm     Bless Massachusetts...they waited until after I got out of college to up the drinking age from 18 to 21. FYI that is the closest I will come to admitting my age. For those that want to know you can come over, cut me open, and count my rings! |
Juju2bigdog | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 06:57 pm     I strongly agree, Lurks.

Draheid | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 07:05 pm     According to the Eligibility Requirements for Big Brother 4 Cached at Google, here is this: 6. You must be at least 21 years of age at the time of application. FWIW |
Grannyg | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 07:25 pm     I'm saying that the 19 year old is one of the ex's and she is the one to walk out the very first night. Then problem is solved about the age and drinking. |
Maris | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 07:35 pm     who the hell can be considered an ex at 19????? an ex what? |
Grannyg | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 07:38 pm     Smoking Gun will probably have a story about whoever it was, having sex with a minor....... |
Tabbyking | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 07:38 pm     they must have gone out 4 times in high school! i loved your post, maris! |
Tabbyking | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 07:39 pm     oh crap! i hope this didn't merge with 'finder of lost loves'...... |
Laisey | Monday, June 30, 2003 - 07:42 pm     Hmmmmm, maybe the 19 year old is the ex of the 59 year old. |
