13 houseguests! CBS commercial picture
Seamonkey | Friday, June 20, 2003 - 10:02 pm     Add me to the list of people who have no interest in ever seeing Dr Will again. I want to see all new HG, no former BB HG, no former Survivors, please!! Pets.. well the pug was cute, the pig was pretty cute, the lizards were pretty boring. The chickens were annoying. But, considering how much interest was generated by Lisa's single "bump".. perhaps pox ridden prairie dogs would be interesting? I'm semi-ready for it to start.. but no rush until Wimbledon is over. Got cable broadband with all my computers on it so I should have better feed experiences this year. |
Lurknomore | Saturday, June 21, 2003 - 01:13 am     I WANT TO SEE CURTIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Bbfan05 | Saturday, June 21, 2003 - 06:12 am     You guys, you're so quick to think it's Dr. Will. What about Will Mega? He came back into the house once, lol, to give Eddie a massage. Maybe it's him, lol, but I hope not! |
Keiffer | Saturday, June 21, 2003 - 06:41 am     I love that each year there are these Curtis fans, and fans of BB1 that come out of the woodwork going on about how much better life was then. It reminds me of how some people look back at the 50's with longing for simpler times, and wish we could go back to it. They forget a couple of things. In BB1 the producers got so antsy for something to happen between the HG's that they offered 2nd place money if one of the boring people would leave so they could put in a new person. Everyone made it like a summer camp, not ever causing any turmoil or conflict. If anyone stuck their head uplong enough for a real conversation they were voted out as soon as they went up for nommination. While Curtis was mister smile all the time, it was only because he never had to use his lawyer skills to manipulate, or scheme. It is easy to be nice when only good things are happening to you. I would so love for him to be in the house with the rule changes so we could finally see what a lawyer would do if given the chance to actually be smarter than the other players. As for the thread title, I would not mind seeing some endurnace test the first night in which the first person to drop out is eliminated on the spot. Make them sit in those trees, or sit in a car, and the first person out, is out of the house. |
Lammy | Saturday, June 21, 2003 - 08:12 am     I still haven't caught the commercial for the show, I guess I don't watch enough CBS. ") I liked it when they had the pug, and the pig. They say the first step to recovery is admitting it, I admit it...I LOVE WILL! BB1 was more about the guys getting gassed at night. Eddie, Josh, and Curtis really tied on a few those last couple of shows. Amy had to go and give the booze nights a bad name. She was a sloppy drunk! |
Lurknomore | Saturday, June 21, 2003 - 09:20 pm     Keiffer, I agree that the overall casting could have been far more interesting in BB1 (but same could be said for all of them IMHO). But yes BB1 was gentler kinder BB era...and though I think SOME scheming does make it interesting I think last year proved how too much scheming with NOTHING else is just plain boring to watch on the live feeds (though it made for better TV). I think BB1 at least cast REAL PEOPLE...and I'd rather have a few more boring normal folks than an entire house full of boring star wannabee's. Of course I'm a radical...I'd like some INTERESTING people and I don't care if they want to be a star or not. Luckily, I genuinely think that Curtis is a decent person, never boring, and I doubt you would have seen him lowering himself to "manipulate or scheme." Not all lawyers are total pond scum...true some are, but mercifully not all. Now I do think he would have used his superior intellect differently if he had to. But then again think about it. He was nominated almost every week and remained in the house till the last show, since America was voting. So seems to me he played it pretty close to perfectly. And I know that his name comes up more often on this board on "best" list or fond memories than any other BB'r, so I think that speaks for itself. Oh and Keiffer...we Curtis and/or BB1 fans don't come out of the woodwork. We've been here, and keep on posting just like you (just with a different viewpoint). |
Rabbit | Saturday, June 21, 2003 - 10:21 pm     I believe that if BB1 had been played with the backstabbing rules of 2 and 3, that cast had as much or more train wreck potential as the last two. If George, Britanny or the women who trashed her husband had been under the stressfull later rules and lasted long enough in the game we might have seen a human Chernobyl that made Nicoles look mild. It would have been interesting to see if Curtis would have played the game more like Hardy or Jason. Jamie is an extremely smart, ultra competitive and goal oriented person who had a lifelong track record of winning and success. She would have been very interesting to watch in the latter games rather than in the don't rock the boat version. Hmmm, I am following up on the last couple posts. Not sure what this thread is supposed to be about. Oh well, shoot me if you can catch me. |
Wendo | Sunday, June 22, 2003 - 10:42 pm     Here's a thought. Maybe some of the HG's will be related; ie: family, parent/child, or marriage. That could be interesting, no? |
Catfat | Sunday, June 22, 2003 - 11:18 pm     It says 13 new faces, could that be 12 regular people and Joan Rivers with her latest new face? That promo that you have posted here looks like monkey pox. Eeuuw. |
Keiffer | Monday, June 23, 2003 - 05:59 pm     Looking at all the shows perhaps there could be more for them to do than to just plot the whole time. Maybe they could build a domino table for food, or ride a bike and speak in a funky accent for food. Maybe they have to memorize road routes in how to get from one place to another? I know that stuff kept me on the feed for hours, and checking the LFP's first thing in the mornings to see what happened. Seriously though, I do think there is some middle ground here. Perhaps they could find week long challenges again that they can practice, or work towards team goals. Making them act like a team all week to win valuable prizes, and at the same time be plotting to kick a person out could be interesting. For the 13 people, I like the Joan Rivers reference. More realistically I wouldn't mind seeing four people from each of the first three, and one extra who everyone is trying to get on their team. |
Zeyna | Wednesday, June 25, 2003 - 06:12 pm     BB UK & South Africa have temporarily swapped hgs. It looks like BB UK's hg will be going to Aussie BB next, so possibly the 13th hg will be a visitor from one of these countries. |
Monkeyboy | Wednesday, June 25, 2003 - 06:44 pm     Thats what i was thinking, Zenya. |
Monkeyboy | Thursday, June 26, 2003 - 11:30 am     Im guessing since they are airing BBUSA in the UK, they will have a UK houseguest enter...maybe the runner up from this year? |
Dallasbbfan | Thursday, June 26, 2003 - 01:04 pm     Ooooh! Good thought Monkeyboy! |
Maris | Thursday, June 26, 2003 - 07:16 pm     Latest Bulletin: The United States has given political assylum to Baghdad Bob and will be placing him in a safe house in California. You heard it here first. |
Bigfan | Thursday, June 26, 2003 - 07:38 pm     Maris, We could only hope that the houseguests will be as entertaining as Baghdad Bob!!! |
Neko | Thursday, June 26, 2003 - 09:27 pm     *Raise her hand* I wouldn't mind seeing Evil Dr Will... I actually miss him.. *shivers as she says this* |
Catfat | Thursday, June 26, 2003 - 10:22 pm     Isn't Baghdad Bob the guy who tried to set fire to his shoes? Bwahahaha---I still laugh out loud at that one. That picture of him they keep showing reminds me of Nick Nolte's mug shot. |
