I did NOT like BB1 at all. The cast may have been diverse, but the whole set up made it so that the house was anti dramatic. Sure the houseguests had fun, but I wanted to see arguments, and therefore found it boring. What was worse is that America voted out the most controversial people. Someone complains/shouts at someone else.....the house nominates that person.......America votes them out. After the first couple of weeks I couldnt take watching the show anymore (and didn't even bother watching the free live feeds).
I started watching again mid season when CBS tried to put some life into that season by adding a new houseguest. This girl was suppsoed to stir up so much shit, but in order for her to go in, someone had to go out. THey offered EACH of the houseguests 50G's to leave and NOBODY took it. They saw the money like it was the devil, and didn't want to make any deals. I was so pissed off because I wanted to see how this new girl would do.
I didn't really care for Chicken George at all, I guess his humour doesnt work on younger people. The only thing he seemed good for was coming up with crazy plans. I was so hoping for his "lets walk out" plan to go through. From what I remember, he came up with some crazy plan that if all the houseguests were to walk out, then CBS would have to pay them all for winning . That was the gist of it anyway, I belive CBS would've let them all walk out and then inject the house with their own picks. I can still remember that live show when Julie asked the HG's they were gonna walk out (in a "we dont care if you leave" tone), the shocked look on their faces was too funny because they believed CBS wanted them to stay.
And then there was their "we are such celeberties in the outside world" attitude. Probrably becasue they knew the show was such a big hit in England, but it didn't really catch on here. They would have talks about Josh (a contestent) being on Teen Magazine, or Britney(another contestent) doing movies, and marvel at the legions of fans that they had. I began to watch JUST to see their reaction of not being so popular. I got this satisfaction when A former houseguest got to return (casandra), and she brought the news that they "weren't so big" in the outside world, then I laughed at their pissed off faces.
dude, you of all people should remember his city "gangbangning" him to win the money. I remember vivedly the clips of his family and friends at the local bars giving FREE DRINKS out for people to "vote out Britney"
