Rosem you can get the Paramount app on the smart TV, maybe that's why cbs isn't working...they may have transfered everything to Paramount

Oh, Christiii, that is so interesting, I like Derek F. more than the other Derek. (first impression, tho, it could change)
I liked Frenchie's bio so I may root for him, unless he does something to piss me off, which is a definite possibility!

Rosem - I just tried signing in @ cbs.com and got an error. I then realized that I need to go Paramount+ to sign in on the computer.

Mystic what kind of computer do you have? I have an iMac, and when I tried to download the paramount app, I got a message that said it's only available on iPhone, iPad and Apple TV.
The oldest person in this cast is 40. I guess 'diversity' didn't mean age.

Sorry Rosem - it is a regular PC (Microsoft - Windows).

Derek F. has a interesting backstory- his dad is the late boxing legend Joe Frazier....

Rosem on my iMac, I log in to CBS.com
It now says Try Paramont+ in the upper right.
I click on that and do log in, using my old All Access info. I forgot my password, they sent me a link. and I am in.
Silly question, are you using the right email?

Mama!!! Thank you, that worked.
I can only see BB22 still. I thought there would be a link to the BB23 cast, but I'm using the site that Scoot posted the link for to see the cast bios.

I saw a tiktok of Derek F, and I think I might like him a lot.
Also the two A-named gals: Alyssa and Azah appeal to me the most out of the girls - I liked what they said in their bios.
I wonder when we'll get pre-show interviews and house reveal?

Yeah I still do not see the link for Live Feeds, which is concerning me a bit, but I guess we wait and see!

You rock, Mystic! I bookmarked the link since I can't seem to get to it on my own.
Just saw a video of "Travis, who is a male (red dotted word that means "prostitute") at the University of Texas who has mastered the art of surrounding himself with ladies"
Holy crap...can he be the first one out? He spoke one line in the video that made me immediately hate him. "Each homie will have a hen"
Alison has outdone herself this time.

From Travis' bio:
"Forming close one-on-one relationships with people behind the scenes, limiting yet utilizing my charismatic personality to connect with people but also not going too over the top with my friendliness and openness so I can cruise a bit under the table in group settings."
That is the longest and stupidest run on sentence I've ever read.
I don't know that I've had such a strong negative reaction to a HG since Jackson Michie.
ETA: seeing him cruise under a table could be fun, tho. 🤪

Xavier appeals to me in that he referenced Chill Town RIP. He obviously keeps up with behind the scenes BB. I hope he doesn’t become part of the dude-bro team that will definitely happen this season.

OK- Christian was a last-second replacement; there was a person named Garrett in a very early email some media got…

I feel like I’ve already read these bios in past seasons, haha!
They are pretty formulaic and vague. I think we’ll have a better idea of who they are when the interviews come out.

Thanks, Rosem! It's hard to navigate the CBS/ Paramount Web Site. I did see "Live Feeds" Tab and then it disappeared. Makes me wonder if they have interns trying to run the web site!

Can we get Travis traded to Love Island? Sounds like he’d fit better there….or did Love Island say we don’t want him, you can have him..

Wilson, I am actually wondering if what I’ve seen of Travis so far is fake. He seems too over the top to be an actual person.
If it turns out that this is really him, they better get him out of there ASAP! We don’t need another Jackson/Jack type in there. BB is trying to be better.
Mystic, I think you’re right. Amateurs are running their IT this season.

I really wish that production would stop making them watch S16. That’s the season that broke the game, and why, IMO, subsequent seasons have sucked so bad.

Seems like this year we get "Tik Tok" stars instead of instragram people. So we will see how that works out.
I posted the CBS bio info in the cast folders.

I think I love everything about Azah. Her favorite BB moment is Keisha's birthday and she wants to identify the strong players and get them out. What's not to love.
As always, I'm heading out on a two week vacation just as BB starts so I'll be checking in with y'all to keep up with what's going on in the house.
