Why do we keep watching?:
Archive through August 21, 2003
Marej | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 11:53 am     Everyone keeps saying the show is so boring. But we still watch? Why? |
Scarlet | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:02 pm     I guess I'm not "everyone" I like the show - it may not be as good as other BB's...oh well...it fills my summer. |
Crossfire | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:04 pm     Yeah, it is a good question, but count me out of the everyone part as well. |
Justshirley | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:05 pm     Count me out, too. I'm really enjoying this season, "ex-factor" and all. |
Spwisc | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:06 pm     Very good question, Marej! I've never said it was boring though and I avoid those threads. I hate to say it, but when someone is not winning, that a certain person wants to win, then they say it's rigged/boring/ yadda yadda. I am hoping the some of the producers see that we really do want the hg's to have more to do than sleep so much. They need to look back at BB1 and see the activities they had them doing. |
Bonzacat | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:08 pm     I'm enjoying it. This season I discovered it's more about the game than the players for me, so even though it might be as exciting as other seasons, I can still get into the process. |
Ambie | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:12 pm     I am still watching, but it is not as entertaining as other years. The hamsters just are not as interesting. Other years I have been glued to the live feeds whereas this year I have only turned them on twice. I still enjoy watching the game being played out, but it is not as captivating as it has been other years. Hopefully this new twist will liven things up. |
Bonzacat | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:12 pm     (Make that "might *not* be as exciting...") |
Xarph | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:12 pm     Why? Train wrecks, while horrible, are also fascinating.
 |
Duncan | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:35 pm     LOL Xarph....I was going to say the same thing! |
Jagger | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:38 pm     I think it is much more boring than previous years, that is why I haven't watched much of the live feeds. I still enjoy watching the show and posting here, but the live feeds are just too boring for me this season. |
Lostintheglades | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 01:38 pm     I am also still watching when I can. They are usually sleeping when I'm able to get on but I will continue to watch. I guess it's just the hope that someone will do something really funny or say something interesting to post. A watched pot never boils...could it be the same for these HG's. But I think that's what keeps me watching. They can't do nothing forever...right? |
Beruthiel | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 04:22 pm     Two reasons ~ 1}summer reruns, and 2}habit. |
Jpgramma | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 04:31 pm     I'll keep watching as long as there's someone I really hope to see win (Jack and/or Erika) or really want to see get what's coming to them (Ali). Without HGs I 'love' or 'love to hate' the show hold's nothing for me. I guess that means, if the show ends up with a F3 of Robert, Gee and June, I'll finally get to finish that book I started before BB began. |
Mich | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 04:33 pm     i keep watching because i have always been a huge fan of bb's in the past. this year however, i have no real interest in any of them and just continue to watch with the hopes that something interesting will happen! |
Creampuff | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 04:33 pm     Cuz, something . . . interesting - dynamic - classic - scandalous - awful - embarrassing - astonishing - perplexing - bewildering - hilarious - unbelievable - mahvelous... might occur any minute now . . . gotta' watch, need to watch, MUST watch! (I am referring to feeds)} |
Lillyross | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 04:48 pm     LOL creampuff, I agree with Jpgramma, I watch to see Ali get what she deserves!! |
Deb833 | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 04:53 pm     I have watched this show from the first and for that first season, I was glued to the live feeds and pretty much stayed glued for the other 2 but this one has been so boring, I've only had the feeds on a couple of times. This is what happens when the producers hand pick the hampsters for looks, rather then substance. What they should do for the next show is get some of the people from these boards and get them on the show. Everyone knows that the folks here at TVCH are the smartest and most interesting people. |
Peachie | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 05:01 pm     Why do we keep watching? Well we are afraid we might miss something, not that we would but we could and then we would be in a thread called "why didnt we watch" We wanna be there when something good happens, not that it will but it could and there again you have that thread I mentioned. I guess this is the real reason I keep watching cause I just know something is gonna happen and if I dont see it or read about it then again I would go above to mentioned thread. I think it is all about the child in us that is afraid very afraid we will miss something. If nothing major happens during the whole season we can do a thread of "why why why did we watch it?" Just my added 2 cents as some say. ;o) |
Creampuff | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 05:03 pm     Lilyross - isn't Ali someone who should have gone waaaaay back, like before Nate wasted his POV on her? Too bad. I am rooting for Jack. Hopefully he or Erika, or even Jun gets Ali out of there ASAP! |
Charvie | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 05:04 pm     I keep watching because it kills time when I have nothing else to do, I learn about the various crazy people that roam the earth and I do like BB. |
Jhezzie | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 05:13 pm     Habit and hope. Habit, since I've been there for all of them, and hope that SOMETHING will happen, lol. |
Philamom | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 05:22 pm     How strange is this ... I probably wouldn't watch anymore if it wasn't for these boards. BB isn't much fun to watch if you don't have people to talk about it with (or argue about it with, which is sometimes even more fun). So I blame it all on TVCH. |
Beruthiel | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 05:37 pm     Ditto that, Philamon! |
Lillyross | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 06:56 pm     Creampuff, I totally agree with you, and have been trying to do so for about 30 mins..keep getting timed out, no matter where I go...Is half the u.s. population on this website right now? |
