I just got a new computer with 22" screen with Big Brother in mind. Big Brother is the only thing to look forward to in the summer here in HOT Florida.

Ohhhh...Brian....::sigh::
I really loved him.
They want emotional, controversial people to wave their freak flag?
Shocking!
Only 10 HG. Hmmmm...wonder if it will be a shorter season than usual?
Thanks for the info, Bee - you always have the scoop on BB!

I found it amusing that Julie said that Boogie was on All Stars Season 8. Season 8 was SO not All Stars!

Rosem...I think it starts later, too. Like July 13th or something like that. I think I read that somewhere.
And you're welcome. I wave my BB Freak Flag proudly!

10 people? Boring unless they keep them all together for a longer time. Like a full month before they start eliminating.

Yeah, the ten people thing is depressing... That means there'd only be one eviction until the jury starts. Where in the video does it say there's only ten people entering the house, though? I seem to be skipping over it.

Harlequin Julie mentions 10 HG's right after the 2:00 mark.
Thanks Bee for posting the link!

Ahh, alright. The word definitely blew right over my head. Thanks Debra!
In an attempt to be as stubborn as possible and not believe it's only ten... She seemed as if she was just throwing out a number? Now I'm just coming off as desperate. XD

Well, Harlequin...she DID make other mistakes, such as calling Boogie the winner of Season 8.
Then again, she also said something like "ten new strangers" so maybe it's ten strangers and three or four returnees.
I'm a bit desperate, too. LOL

Wasn't there a season where they started out with fewer house guests and then later brought in a couple of ex's? Maybe that will happen again.

Aurora: Season 4 started out with eight and then the five ex's entered the house, but they entered that same night. I was too young to remember if any information was leaked beforehand though, like a post on the CBS website or through an interview with Julie and Allison Grodner or something.
Bee: Haha, yay I'm not alone! That sounds like a bit of "Fans Versus Favorites" though. Something I wouldn't be entirely against if there had to be a twist but... Well, I don't want a twist. I'd take ten houseguests over a twist, actually. Maybe. Depends on the side of the bed I woke up on.
Gosh, it's only the beginning of April (not even!) and already I'm speculating like a crazy person. Clearly I've been deprived.

Please, no more exes! Up until Season 9, that was the worst season ever!

I can live with fans vs. favorites. I agree with Merry though on the no more exes. That was a horrible season.

No exes, no relatives, no match-making hook-ups, please.
If it's only ten, let it be ten STRANGERS!

In my previous post, what I meant was maybe they start with 10 originally and then bring four more, thus keeping this season the usual length.
