Audrina Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 I would like real people too. Yet, I still can't help but watch -- Wanna-Be's or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BigSister Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Has any family members of HG ever posted on these sites in past BB's?Wouldn't you think that one of the HG family members or friends who knows them would be monitoring these sites and would speak-up for their friends?I mean...wouldn't you defend your friend like M if someone was mean to him?

Guest BigSister Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Thanks Yana,I was wondering if their families were prohibited from defending or saying anything online or in public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yana Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 No problem Sis... they have come in to defend them and I am proud they do... Good family and friendship bonds... I would hope mine would do that too... Doesn't make me like them any more than before though LOL... We also had a couple of people for April... A friend and a cousin... I forgot about them at first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gill332211 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 but if you think about it... every show...not just reality tv shows...is looking for ratings and they believe that better looking people...will bring better ratings...i dont mind seeing good looking people 3 times a week...i think we can all agree with that :wink: ...they are normal people but i think that once ANYONE was in that house and they knew that it would be televised that they would start acting like idiots and whores and stuff just so the people that are watching would either like them or hate them...just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fromthedamage Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Do you mean Will from season 2? I thought he was hot, definitely hotter than any of the guys from this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BaileySue Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Do you mean Will from season 2? I thought he was hot, definitely hotter than any of the guys from this season.If they're talking about Will, the doc, I thought he was very nice looking. Started out hating him because of the way he played the game, ended up rooting for him all the way!I'm rooting for Kaysar but when he's gone - I'm probably pushing for Howie all the way...And guess what? I wanted him gone FIRST after the first episode. Amazing how I end up rooting for somebody I originally wanted booted off nearly every season.I'm trying to "like" Janelle but it just won't work. She's way to stuck on herself ... "I brought lots of beauty products into the house because what BB provides is crap." Ugh!!!I liked Eric until I watched his video interview with Marcellas. What an arrogant slob! :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pebbles468 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 They should also work on sifting through the psychos...

kywildcat Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 It's kinda like watching a live soap opera, they're all so young and restless. All My Hamsters. Everyone is so pretty and un-real, until you watch them awhile. The more I watch them, the less attractive most of them are becoming. Personalities have a way of doing that. Janelle is way to struck on herself, I agree, but she is very possibly the smartest one in the house. She's playing it. I wouldn't be surprised if she won the big bucks.I didn't know until I watched the show tonight that Rachel was the one who instigated the "fight". I was wondering why Eric kept coming down on Michael about talking trash about his family. Isn't Rachel the sneaky one? Or was she only sucking up to Eric?

CanadianPrincess Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 HAWT: Micheal, Keysar, Janelle (Howie ?) NOT: Ivette, Eric, Jennifer, April WHATEVER: Sarah, Rachel, Beau. etc. What do you guys think? Comments please. What is so hard to understand? The hot ppl are Kaysar, Mike, Janelle, and Howie. The seem to have an alliance against the not-so-hot ppl (Eric, Ivette, etc.) I am asking if you agree with this statement or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlexHinn Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 I don't see whats so difficult to understand. Clearly, the best looking people in the house are Michael, Janelle, Kaysar and Howie.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianPrincess Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 I am asking whether or not you agree that the alliance are divided by looks:I am asking if you agree that the hotter better-looking people (howie, jannelle, kaysar, mike) are against the not as hot ppl (eric, ivette, etc.).

Demandred Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Is it just me or does this group of houseguests contain a sizable group of some of the most disgraceful and contemptible people ever on this show or maybe any of the big reality shows?Eric, Ivette, Beau, Jennifer and April are some of the lowest players I've ever seen. Rachelle isn't rating too highly on my radar either and could be included in this group if she pulls another stunt like that listening at the door to the gold room and going straight to Eric with it.There are always villains but these people are taking it so far into the gutter its an utter travesty. Lying and misdirection are always a part of the game of course, but the outright making up of sexual innuendo and character assasination of a pretty much innocent individual is incredible.Just had to get that out. As incredible as it sounds ... I am liking Howie more and more despite his potty mouth (which I think he does on purpose). After watching him handle the conversation in the gold room with Kaysar and Janelle revealing their pairings to him and him revealing virtually nothing in return I'm convinced he's far smarter than he shows. It was an amazing moment to watch and he handled it like a pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutcrackersrus Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 i completely agree with you....on both counts. howie is definately turning out to be a key factor in this game. all he needs to do now is to get rachel to "join the darkside" which i think he's working on. however, i really do think that howie should've told them that he was paired with rachel, or atleast told them that he thinks rachel would be a good one to bring into the group and really start building her up....but again, he might be working on it. the more i see those gears grinding away in his head, the more i am liking him as a player. he's smart, and he sees what is about to happen with saint eric's following. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shockalot Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 I think this group is one of the smartest overall.By that I mean they might be totally screwed in the head emotionally but they have an overall higher inteligence rating.This explains why your seeing what your seeing. Selfish, emotionally screwed up and morally bankrupt people who know enough to use it with maximum devastation.Im enjoying this a lot more than seeing Scott Long, Jase, Holly and Cowboy banging into walls and trying to no avail to come up with 'plans'. It was like watching a vacuum full of marbles last season.Without a doubt Howie is much smarter than he appears. (So was Holly but being 'less than retarded' isnt saying much in her case).Howie stands a good chance of making it far, although he doesnt seem very co-ordinated to me and I dont see him winning the HoH's and PoVs etc.(watch him win tomorrow lol).But ya.. I was holding out hopes for more sophisticated play but it didnt take long before it turned to non-stop talk about farting, shitting and periods. Wonderful.Lets see more political talk, philosophy, even sexuality whatever.. but less poop and booby nonsense please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Depeche221 Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Shockalot, I agree almost 100% with you. I think that this year will be different in one major way. Usually the sparks start happening later in the season. I know you have watched previous seasons and if you happened to check, the ratings always went up towards the last 3 or 4 weeks because that was when all the real backstabbing and evel shit started. Unfortunately, this year, I think many viewers are turned off by the stuff that is going on so early, that we may actually see lower ratings during the last few weeks. It is about egtting people hooked and having favorites to vote for and so far, each week has been pretty predictable. Not just by live feed viewers, but by just average folks. The "BIG TWIST" that will supposedly come halfway, better be really awe inspiring, or I think CBS may have made a huge mistake this season. My friend that works for another BB overseas keeps telling me why it isn;t a big of hit over here. He says that when you try to cast people that have an interest in fame outside of the house, you lose right there. You need real folks. When it comes to the "live feeds", he is very critical. First off, the live feeds in other countries are free. And they really are uncensored. So, take for example, the fight Sat night. Instead of fish for 8 hours, we would have seen everything. CBS.com, CBS, and realplayer are too afraid to go out on a limb and show us everything for fear of FCC involvement. But, that also leads the audience to feel that everytime there are fish, things may or may not be manipulated. The whole idea of BB is NO CENSORSHIP, buut America has not gotten that. Maybe that is why it is more popular in every other country.Also, American BB tends to cast people who are fake. They try to putr intriguing twists in, but once you learn about the people, you see it is all a sham. I personally think they should go back to season one and start casting nobodies. Overweight, not smart, not pretty, and focus more on just throwing a group of 14 people who are all different into the house and then making up the storylines as they evolve, instead of trying to spin the show and cast it a certain way eash year. Trust me, real life is much more intersting with real folks instead of people who are trying to play parts.BB needs some major overhauls. I love the show and look forward to it, but untyill they start focusing more on the game and less on the T&A, I have a sick feeling we are less likely to see it back each year. BB is supposed to be about real rats, living in a cage. The focus should be on them, not what twists they come up with if the cast isn't as real as they could find.IMHODep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shockalot Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 I remember watchign the X-factor and thinking WOw.. this is different!Then its like they outdid everything with the TwinTwist.. which was very clever and made for great intrique.Now this year its another 'topper' and we even hear the jury may be able to go behind the walls! TOPPER...Ok.. but here is what worries me, now every season has to have even better looking models being put into more shocking twists and trick surprises.Now what happens?It becomes 'Punk'd' and its not long before you cant top the last prank and resort to anything to satisfy the expectations:BB7 - Six Mormons find out they are in with Eight Pornostars!!!BB8 - Slutty Silicone Nymphos and Five guys with Anger problem and the backyard is a UFC fighting Ring!In many other countries, BB has stayed true to the primary focus being 12 UNIQUE people.Not just 12 people all from the same metropolitan area shopping centre and unique teeth and boob enhancement doctors being surprised with some gimmick.Honestly, I think the most shocking and outrageous thing BB could do now would be a dozen truly unique guests.Two over 60 years old.Two over 50.Two of each age group.REALLY different people. A real working class black guy from detroit who is NOT a model wannabe.A fat truck driver who works 18 hour shifts. Fat in a 'real life' way. A 62 year old widow who loves her grandson.Then shock us by having them work through psychological issues, make the 'Twist' be that they must work together, share rooms together and talk about their lives.I dunno.. that might not get the Uber-Ratings I guess but to me that would get a whole lot more sincere loyalty from a very solid fanbase.Us?
