TiVo says only one hour. CBS has no reason to lie to the TV schedule listing people.

I heard Ali say that the Wed. show would be two hours long.

Also, I would imagine that Ali & Jun will also be able to see what was said in the DR before the live show. From what I understood the rehashing of what was said will not necessarily be directed just to Jun and Ali.

Ali just cleared up the Wed. show. She asked in the DR and they told her it would be a one hour show.

Wow! Sounds like the show is really going to go out with a ... pfffft.

Remember, the first 5-10 mins. will recap the whole season, I know we just did that last night, but you know they'll do it again.

Then they have to pack in the q&a, probably more jury thoughts, the vote, the reactions after seeing the completely-skewed episodes, the live revealing of the vote, and then they tease that HG's get a chance to "call out" other HG's after seeing the episodes???
Yeah, right. It's a teaser to get us to watch and stick around for the whole hour.

Forget it. I'll check out the recap here after The Bachelor.

I was thinking about the houseguests watching the tapes and maybe they will cut it down some. No need to show competitions and the live show on Wednesday since even the jury members got to see the outcome of HOH for the week and the eviction of the live show. Plus if you cut out all the commmercials a show is only about 47 minutes long. They could probably bring it down to 10 hours or less if they wanted to.

But Avrey, they didn't get to see any DR comments regarding those competitions, so they will ahve to watch them again, just so they can see that added feature. For example, they have to see the hypocritical comments that Ali made about the others during the "Clambake from Hell" challenge, just to get a good idea of what she really thought of them.

They can cut out all of the "previously on BB" bits, they don't need to show the intro again and again, the promos for the live feeds & BB5 applications can be cut as well as the commercials. My guess is that at that point, each show will be about 35 minutes. That's about 18 hours of tape to watch. Of course, they will be watching themselves, so that will add to the fun for them.

Onlyhuman,
I forgot about the "watching themselves" aspect. We better add about 8 more hours to that 18 hour estimate just for them to rewind and "watch that part again". LOL

Maybe they will have a "before and after" vote. They vote for the winner, watch the tapes, then...SURPRISE....who do you vote for NOW that you have seen everything?!?

Oh thanks Justshirley,

It will be more clear when I see that on the show... if the Juror's name is on the top part of the key and the name of either Ali or Jun in the lower part hidden in the box, that means that the Jurors must tell whoever is doing the engraving who they picked to win.. or I wonder if they're given 2 keys with their name on and one has Ali and the other has Jun and they have to pick the onw they want. Must be making a lot of keys...

Why is everyone so confused? This is exactly how it ended last year, including a one hour final show. (Except the tape watching since they weren't sequestered.)

Spunky, there is no engraving after the fact; it's been done already. When they go into the room to vote, there are two keys. One with Jun's name, one with Ali's name; and both keys have the jurors name at the top. (Exactly like last year.)

But Wendo, wouldn't it be delicious if they allowed the jury to CHANGE their votes on finale night? That would be beyond yummy!

Wendo

Ric, no.

Ric - get a grip and slap yourself on both cheeks! Then go have a breakfast taco for me. We are all out of twists for this season...

True, Bonza. I've just been so bitterly disappointed in this whole season (the X-factor being the biggest catastrophe in BB history) that I'm desperate for some kind (any kind!) of drama.

[I will have that breakfast taco as soon as I can locate one! They're usually referred to as breakfast burritos, but I'm open to trying a b-taco, though!]

Wendo, thank you for your succinct response. I wish just one of my fantasies would come true!

Wendo

Ric, I'm sure there will be some drama for you during the final show since they'll all have watched the tapes by then. LOL!

I think the problem with this season is Julie said series of twists and what did we see for twist. 0 She said this after the ex hgs were in the house.

Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 01:31 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
OK, Wendo...but if it's drama-free...I'm holding you personally responsible!

Bonzacat

I know, Ric, the X-factor might have sounded good on paper, but.... not.

(I keep forgetting I'm not in TX - yes, the b-burrito, not b-taco! I know you can get good b-burritos in your 'hood. You might want to have one at the ready for the BB finale!)

Wendo

Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 01:44 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Alrighty then Ric. LOL!

Didn't Jun and Ali see "Expect the Unexpected" on the screen today? That could just be the "twist" where they get to view the tapes after the voting, though.

I'll have two ready, Bonza--one for the show and one on standby, just in case the show is dud (I refuse to believe Arnie & Co. will be dumb enough to screw up the finale, but you never know...).

It's probably possible that they will watch the whole season. Cut out the Julie banter and the commercials and there isn't much left to watch. Remember too the first part of every show is a recap of the previous. Maybe 25 minutes of real episode a week. Ya think?

Gosh, but the girls have been talking, about the questions, for a long time. Must have been delicious! By the time we get to see anything,
but FOTH, they'll be down to quiet sighs:(

If they have to start watching the tapes they'll have to hurry with the vote... putting pressure on them to decide. It has to be done by tomorrow then Monday and Tuesday they can enjoy the tapes and argue till they drop dead and Wednesday they'll reharse for the Live show.

Well, it seems clear to me now... still we don't know if Ali and Jun will get to see the tapes too.

My best guess is that the jury will not be watching 25 hours of video (all the episodes sans DR entries). They will likely be shown a couple of hours that is a compilation of various strategy planning scenes by everyone. That way, they would ensure that the jury sees at least some of one anothers' "backstabby ways" and how a lot of them had been manipulated by one another....which would *guarantee* some drama and/or gasps of surprise and shock.

Besides, there is no reason for them to see the *entire series* (sans DR) because they will have *already* voted! They can always watch the entire thing at their leisure later on for their own entertainment. The HGs just need to see enough to make for an interesting few minutes of all 12 seeing some of how they were lied to and manipulated inside the house.

In fact, I'd like to see ALL TWELVE of them sitting there watching as short clips are played for them....the camera on Nate as he watches Ali tell the others in a serious tone that she thinks he's gay.....or the camera on Dana when Jun calls her a "psycho-b!tch" behind her back...the camera on Justin when Ali is referring to him as a "deformed midget"....the camera on Robert as they show the girls plotting against him all along...

That would be FUN. :)
