ODESSA, TX?! That's out in the middle of flat, barren, nowhere Texas! Figured they would do it in Dallas, Houston, El Paso or Austin. I'm just suprised.

It's odd they don't have a New York City date - we're chock-full of characters.

Sounds like the start in the "big cities" and sweep throughout the country.

If I am not mistaken, several of last years cast members were not cast until shortly before the show began.

I can't believe that I just learned today that they had a casting call in Los Angeles tonight. I am disappointed that I didn't get a chance to go there!! GRRR!! Oh well, I could apply thru the mail. I prefer go to the casting call than thru the mail. So, they can see me who I am!! Or maybe another casting call in Los Angeles next month. I hope so!!

First of all, Ft, Myers, Fl is a sleepy town, I guess they wanted people to drive up and the Swap Shop is not in Miami, it is in Ft. LAuderdale which is about 30 miles north of Miami and it is a flea market. Who is going to go there for a casting????????????It is kind of a cheesy place in my opinion but that's just me!

Missoula, Odessa, Sioux Falls.....don't get me wrong, these are fine cities all with fine people, BUT I think the Big Bro casting folks had WAAAAAY too much fun with their new atlas!

Can someone please explain why they go through the trouble of doing these casting calls when many of the hgs end up there because of either an agent or a friend of a friend?

Frenchy

Thursday, April 17, 2003 - 04:32 am EditMoveDeleteIP
Scorpiomoon has an excellent point!!! I mean, they are either strategically placed by producers to appease all audiences... ( aka: Please insert stereotypical and very necessary inclusion of overweight married man or gay houseguest....) The rest are all strickingly, breathtakingly gorgeous...or looking to be the next Playboy spread or hollywood actor! I mean, don't get me wrong, I think there are some great individuals who got selected in the past (JasonBB3, MonikaBB2...) but there is just no way of singling out the people who are in it for the love of the game and because they actually think they belong in it as PLAYERS....not as candidates for the next sucker who gets their 15 minutes in the spotlight and fades away in the sunset just as quickly.

And COME ON!! Why not open it to Canadians too?? We are faithful and dedicated viewers as well!! Cut us slome slack! :)

I wonder if these reality shows don't allow Canadians because the shows pay the HG's for their time there. Would Canadians have to have a green card for working in the US? And it would just be to much of a hassel for the production company? Also, since the show is on tv, are their certain Hollywood SAG rules about having foriegners on tv? I have no idea, I'm just wondering if this may have something to do with it.

I think they are doing the open casting to get the one or two "normal" people per season. And it's probably likely that most of the people that apply have aspirations to become famous from it which would explain why most of them try to get famous afterwards.

Well.... looks like the "deadline" is up now. No changes to the CBS site to extend the deadline to apply so time to go out to LA and hang out in the Malls and Bars if you hope to get on the show - lol.

I hope this next bunch isn't packed with SAG wannabees again. They're so boring.

If they're not SAG, you'd better believe they're going to be beautiful. There's only one Gerry spot per cast.
