Archive through September 15, 2003
Gidget | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 03:45 pm     I so have to figure out how to reconnect my VCR so I too can fast forward. |
Chelle | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 03:46 pm     I think that Jun and Ali make a much more exciting final. I can't wait. |
Duncan | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 03:55 pm     I'm going to keep watching just because of the time already spent. Plus, I would love to see Ali's face if June wins HoH and keeps Rob instead of her. LOL. I know it won't happen, but I think it would be the most priceless moment in BB history. |
Bastable | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 03:58 pm     I agree about the X Factor. I think the idea was a dud. I hope they don't get overly high-concept next season; Big Brother is already pretty high-concept as-is. The mark of an overly empowered TV producer is that they can't leave a good formula alone. Because of the chilling effect of the twist, Allison and Arnie have had to work their tails off to edit an interesting TV show, and I hope they learned their lesson. I do think that when EW proclaimed it a winner, though, that they're speaking in terms of the industry. That opinion has everything to do with ad dollars and Nielsen numbers, not with a critical appraisal. |
Wendo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:05 pm     Yes, Bastable, it was considered a winner in terms of viewers and that they won their time period with that golden demographic, 18-30 year olds. The critics, well, they've never liked BB. LOL! |
Mlt | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:09 pm     I don't plan to boycott the show. But if something more interesting (like washing my hair) comes up, I might not get around to watching. I can't say that I care who wins at this point. The only way this could be interesting to me would be if all the money won was given to the person's favorite charity. I'd watch just to see their faces when the twist was anounced. I agree that to make the show interesting, there have to be 'bad guys'. The problem is, there also have to be 'good guys' and I don't see any of those. |
Hummingbird | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:09 pm     I'll be watching and really don't care which of these two nasty people win. I just hope the BB staff learned some lessons this year on casting houseguests. The best one so far was Dr. Will's bunch. Maybe they raised the bar on our expectations. |
Mizinvanccouver | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:11 pm     Of COURSE I will watch the the rest of BB!! I won't be very happy if Jun isn't in the final 2, but I would still watch. I'm routing for Jun to win, I too have liked her from the beginning. |
Puttergirl | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:13 pm     They should put all of the ousted hgs back in for the last week to make the last 2 have to really work for their votes. Now that would make it worth watching!!! |
Texasdeb | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:18 pm     I'm here until the end! I'm soooo awaiting the jury questions. I like everyone on the Jury, so I'll trust whatever their choice is. I'm really waiting for the finale (everyone comes back to re-live)! |
Churah | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:18 pm     Nota. I won't boycott. I'm afraid I would miss something. |
Smokey | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:18 pm     Nope, I won't boycott. Bastable: "Of course I'm not going to "boycott!" The very idea makes me want to laugh because it smacks a bit of being judgmental of these two girls, IMHO. I'm a true fan of this show, thick or thin, no matter who happens to rise to the top of the game. Part of loving this show is loving the twists and turns. Ali and Jun in the finals is a dream match-up between two floaters who shouldn't have made it this far. It's excellent!" This is me, too--I am a true fan of this show for whatever sick reason. I am disappointed about who is in the finals, or who will most likely win, but I still love the show. I look forward to hearing what the jury has to say to them. |
Smokey | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:20 pm     Puttergirl--I like that idea. |
Whoami | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:23 pm     I'll watch for the same reason as others have mentioned. I've invested this much time in it, I'll see it to it's end. When I see Survivor, and the season premiers advertised, I am excited, and find myself anxious for BB to end so it can get out of my way. |
Onlyhuman | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:26 pm     Puttergirl, THAT I would watch, which is why I don't think that they will do it. Plus, the more I think about it, I just don't see them being able to persuade the jury to go back into that h*ll hole. Why should they, when they can kick back at their hotel, eating and sleeping in comfortable beds without cameras watching them all the time??? Oh, and Gidget, the ONLY way to watch this show is with the fast forward button. Actually, I had a good time making Jee go up and down the steps to the jury house in quick time. He really looked like a stooge! (and I really am a dork! ) |
Earthmother | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 04:44 pm     I am making this clear...I WON'T BE VERY HAPPY!! but I would still watch..I'd root for Jun, not because I like her but out of sheer dislike for Alison. It's exactly the way I felt last year, the two choices made it a real bore!!! I seriously considered not watching this year and many days I wish I had kept my promise to myself, There have been some decent moments, unfortunately not enough to make me exited for next year though. |
Gina8642 | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 05:09 pm     No way, I won't boycott. I've been saying for weeks and weeks that a Jun/Ali final will be the most interesting and hardest to call. I'm very happy with it. Neither is a slam dunk winner. I think this is a great conclusion. Both players are 'the girl you love to hate'. I don't remember an ending like this ever before. I'm looking forward to it. But I'm also not certain it will happen. Alison betrays EVERYONE - I'm still not sure she won't betray Jun. |
Bridget | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 05:31 pm     I wouldn't miss it. |
Sheilaree | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 05:44 pm     I agree with Chelle I can't wait for the Jun and Ali show Bye Bye Robert does he know he going yet? |
Texasdeb | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 05:46 pm     Survivor premieres on MY BIRTHDAY! I'll be watching this for sure. I predict a Jun win - but, will Jun "blow" yet another HOH & let Ali do the dirty work? If it looks like Jun "blows" HOH, I hope Ali can get jury votes because Jun will have just floated through on other's skirt/shirt tails. (Again, I am not an Ali fan!) |
Tabbyking | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 05:46 pm     i am critical of this BB, but it would be wrong to say i 'never liked BB'. this one was just a dud. i have picked jun to win, but could care less! i will give next year's a chance and if it is boring, i will quit watching that one, too! i think the exes was a lame-brain idea, even if i did guess it before it happened. i didn't think they would be that stupid when i guessed that! i remember Goddess saying she could throw some of her separated couple clients in there, too, but not that she thought it was a good idea. lol |
Tera | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 05:50 pm     I made vacation plans 2 days before the announcement of the final episode being moved to the 24th. I will be leaving this Friday. At first I was sad that I would miss the final episode, but now I really don't care. |
Fan3 | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 06:02 pm     What to watch? there is no exciment or hope of a "decent" person winning. just two evil backstabbing ..... so might tape it or come here and see what happened but think Bachelor starts that night much more excitement to see BOB again. also guys think of the cbs spy who comes here to read out thoughts are we encouraing tahem to keep a dull show like this one so next year will be worse? just thoughts |
Squaredsc | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 06:28 pm     no. |
Ddr1135 | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 06:53 pm     Love your idea Puttergirl! Let them come in during the day but let them leave before supper. That way Ali would know Dana was with Justin, which would be just lovely for us to watch! |
