I would rather be watching the stooges right now than the hot tubbers....just one of the feeds on a different scene would be nice.

I agree, MissLibra.
Dana's voice and the words that come out of her mouth has kept me away from the feeds all day.

Still all 4 feeds on HOH with Dana & her crew self-congratulating themselves. Give us a break!! Why have 4 feeds if you're only going to show the same thing? Accccck!

You all just made me feel good for going to bed early last night. So I'd like to complain BB isn't worth losing sleep over this year LOL. I never look rested during BB season this is confusing.

And Costa I know what you mean. As someone who writes professionally I sometimes later reread my posts and CRINGE. But then I remember no one is paying me to post here, so the heck with it LOLOL.

Why must BB let them sleep all day? It seems more logical to me to get them up earlier so they will go to be earlier and be more in line with the hours the viewers keep. It would keep it a little more interesting for those of us on the East coast especially.

Venting now... I'M TIRED OF CHECKING IN ONLY TO FIND THEM STILL SLEEPING!!!!!

*Wendo enters the complaint thread with head down*

Well, RealOne, I owe you an apology. As much as it pains me to do it, you are not responsible for my craptastic feeds. Apparently, my cable internet service has "issues" in my area and are doing repairs at night. So, this explains why my feeds become so crapulous in the evenings. Again, RealOne, I'm sorry.

Rant ON

Ok, RCN! Get my gosh dang high speed internet fixed! What the hay? I pay you $50 dollars a week for dial up speeds? Hello? Can we say, RIP OFF!

RCN, I hate you. Hate. As in despise and loathe. I hate you like Dana will hate Nate when he uses the POV to remove Ali. Hate.

Rant OFF

Ok, feel better now.

Here's my complaint. Maybe it's the teacher in me, but don't they have "activities" and stuff for them to do rather than lay around and eat? One year (I think the first) they made masks and other crafty things. They even had better competitions & contests. The food competitions this year have been a let down. Give them a jigsaw puzzle or something for goodness sakes. Please BB producers, get creative!
Ahhhh...that feels better!

Ok guys....My complaint is that CBS mislead me to think that there was a (their words not mine) Showdown between Jee and Dave. That's the straw that broke the camels back...I am not watching it anymore, I canceled my feeds. I will only keep up by reading the board. I am not giving CBS anymore of my time.

Yesterday I tuned into live feeds to see all of them yawning and lounging. There wasn't even a conversation. Why can't BB give them more to do!??!

Here's my complaint - Dana is going around complaining that Nate won't talk to her about his winning the PoV. That he should be "respecting" her as HOH!

What a joke.

I am getting really "pissed off" at Dana & other hgs repeatedly saying "retard"!

I want to complain that Mariano Rivera blew a Yankee lead where we could actually have had bragging rights of beating Pedro Martinez and now in the 9th, the freakin game is tied! I also want to complain that if the game goes to extra innings, I will have to wait even longer for BB!!!!!! Grrrrrrrrrr

(Edited to add, the Yankees just scored a run and now it is 4-3 Yanks in the top of the ninth! Then Kim hit Giambi, grrrrr Let's hope they don't blow it again!)

Katbee, the first year was the only year Arnie and co didn't have a hand in BB. IMNSHO, that year was a more pure rendition of what I think BB ought to be. They did give them chores, tasks, and various other activities.

Ice, y'know, I was wondering that myself. I remember seeing the advert last night during TAR, too! Dang them!

Sillybeth,
You're right. First Dana was salivating how Nate was going to come and try to make a deal, now she is mad because he's not coming to her. I love that Nate is staying away. No need to consult with her.

I would like to complain that this crew doesn't have a clue how to BBQ. They didn't let the coals burn near long enough before they threw the steaks on, and now the steaks have been on the grill over 15 minutes not done yet.

I have just posted this in the spoiling thread for tonights show but I'm SOOOO PI@@ed off at myself I sound like Dana here. To me it is worthy of a double complaint. Oh I just am not a happy camper here. My post, which I think belongs more in this thread actually;

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I just sat down to watch my tape of BB (just wasn't in the mood to watch before) and found I forgot to turn the VCR on (or off depending how you look at it) after I set it.

I am having me one SERIOUSLY bad VCR week. Least I can read this thread. (the spoiler one). Oh I am sooooo not happy

Lurknomore... Get Tivo you will never go back...All I have to do is press season pass on my tivo and it records every single one of them for me...:)

TiVo is just fantastic, and with just an inexpensive
TV-tuner/video-capture card and WinDVR, it's just like having a whole other TiVo on the pc but with no service bill! I use both.

Next time business gets good again I have SOOOO got to get me a Tivo. I came really close about a year ago and truly regret not doing it. I wasted too long debating between that and hmmmm some other service who'd name currently escapes me. I liked their concept of no monthly charges. So I dragged my feet and right now can't really justify it. But hope work gets back to normal soon...it's a new toy near the top of my list!
