OK, I keep thinking about the money offer thing, and I'm trying to think of cool twists to the show as a result of money offers given to the HG's. Here are some I would like to see:

1) HG's offered money to give up their vote this week.

2) HG's offered money to leave the house and the game for a week and be sequestered in a MYSTERY location, only to return a week later. It would be cool to see them bite, and then only be stuck in a Motel 76 with no cable, and no outside contact. Then they would come back, only to have all the HG's plotting against them.

3) HG's be given an offer to evict a fellow HG, and that evicted HG would be given money. Who would they pay to see go?

4) Variation of #3. Each HG is asked if they would be into participating in a game, where ONE HG is evicted, for 10,000, based on confidential DR votes from all HGs (without being able to consult others). This would allow the HG's to be candid about who they would like out. And if a majority of the HG's vote to play the game, we could see any one of the HG's leave.


OK, that's all I have for now. Anyone else have any good money offers?

During live voting, so that it's interesting for us and stressful for them, call them into the room, ask them their vote, then offer cash to change it.

Something like they did in BB2: offer them money but if they take it everyone else in the house has to eat PB&J for the week (do this after they win the food competition)

The BB1 producers were flexible enough to try to do something about what they considered a train wreck. I do not see Arnie as being flexible.

First, he probably does not think that there is a problem. How could he? His ego is tied into what a wonderful job he has done with this production.

Secondly, changing anything would be an admission of failure.

Lastly, he is producing a TV show. The actions of the HGs all day long have little effect on the TV show. Arnie has supreme editing control. He could turn the most mundane of actions into a stroy line if he is willing to bend the truth. We know he loves to bend the truth.

They should offer them a certain number of shares of some stock that's gone downhill since they entered the house.

(Bitter? Me?)

How about waiting until there are at least 4 or 5 evicted HG's in the sequestered house and then offering one of the remaining HG's a fairly large amount ($25k or so) to leave the house and switch places with the evicted HG of their choice?

Is the twist something which will favor the houseguests or which will hamper their stay in the house???

Julie didn't give us any hint...
