oldguy Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I don't think I know a soul who watches bb. Maybe it's because I'm old as dirt. My 3 sons, in their middle and late 30's, think I'm kinda strange for watching it. Same with American Idol. Lordy, Lordy, where did I go wrong with my kids?

Yana Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Oldguy I'm in my late 30's a love the show... My mom is 69 and loves the show... My niece just turned 30 and loves the show... My daughter is 27 and loves the show... I don't think age really has much to do with it... I think it's personal taste... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meinva Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 My Husband, Dad, Brother and Sister-in-law watch but they don't come to Morty's or the live feeds. I have tried talking a few friends into it but they don't seem to want to make the commitment to 2-3 nights a week. They think I'm crazy with the live feeds etc. They can think what they want just don't call me during the show!!!!!! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisu power Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 i know people who watch other "reality" shows, but I don't think I know anyone who has watched for the last few seasons. I've watched every season but last year is when it became time-consuming cuz I got a computer and spent time reading .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erinjs Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Thankfully, my sister and my fiance both watch Big Brother. My sister is as obsessed as I am, so I am lucky that I can talk about the show with people I am close to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nursie Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 my husband watches the show only because i 'force' him to, while it's on my kids want to know what's going to happen next because 'mama always knows', but my husband yells because we 'ruin' the show by talking about who's about to win the competitions.

loudmouth42 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 My other vice besides Big Brother if fantasy football. Its a group of he-men who wear t-shirts that expose their beer bellies, smoke, drink, dip, cuss.....you get the picture. Anyway, back during BB2 we had a get together during the football season, just a poker party, lots of drinking. One of the guys finally got a good hand then said to everyone....."its awwwn" I said shut up, what did you just say? He said it again....its awwwnnnn. This big Texas redneck hillbilly said he got it watching a TV show, his favorite person always said it. We left the card table went out back and talked BB the rest of the night. LOL. Its become a routine now, during BB we email each other every day. I swear hes as gay as me. (hes not btw) So yeah I guess you could say people in my outside world watch BB.

Catniptoy Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I forgot--my Mom watched the show two years ago. We would be talking on the phone, and she would say things like, "I just can't stand that Janelle. She is so mean to Maggie!" I nearly had a stroke at the very idea! So, I told her what she was missing on the feeds. I have to laugh about it now, because I think Mom was convinced that Maggie and Yvette were the ones responsible for the way the show portrayed everyone, and she loathed them after that. She always asked me what happened in the feeds every day while the show was on that year. Last year, she wasn't as interested. Maybe because it was All-Stars, and she didn't know most of the people.

Nodoubt575 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I have a few friends, but no one who watches the feeds. =( They don't know what they are missing I'll tell ya!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerSnaps Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 No one I know watches it. As someone said, this show has been on 7 seasons and still the "duh" look when mentioned. I stopped asking a long time ago. My immediate circle spend their days watching soccer, history and discovery channels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyGirl Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I used to work with a girl who watched the first couple of seasons and we would chat at lunch - I haven't talked to her in years. I didn't think anyone I knew watched until my dad (of all people) started asking me about Will and Janelle last year - I almost choked! I make my boyfriend watch now - he is still in the habit of saying "Hi Julie" every time the Chenbot comes on screen! He also picked up the "Bye Bye Bi!$@#@" comment although he doesn't say that as much anymore. So, when I want to see what other people are thinking about the show, I come to Morty's!

Califcyclone Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 My husband gets cranky this time of year because he knows I am going to be meeting with my other Lover - Big Brother. I am so glad to have Morty's and feeds - this to me is what Big Brother is all about - it is an interactive, full sensory experience. None of my family or friends get it - nor understand it as a hobby/addiction. Last year was the first year we had a DVR and he got so angry when a timer would come up on the TV screen telling him he only had 2 minutes left before a recording of Big Brother would take over his world. After a couple weeks he would grouse about the program but I would catch him watching it...then he might ask me a question or two about a player...

WannaBeBB9 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 No body, I mean no body in my world watches BB. The only people I can talk to about is all you wonderful people. This year is going to suck though because I will not being getting the live feeds. I thought I was going to get lucky again and Real Player would just give them to me for free like they did last year, it didn't work and I dont have a dime. Im sad I look forward to keeping up with BB via Mortys though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizzmotor Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 My daughter anh her husband watches, and we compae notes. But I am the only one that comes to Mortys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katydidit Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Nope, I don't have one kindred soul over here either. Hubby sometimes but not very often. That's why I'm at Morty's. I don't really belong to anything else except Ebay. I don't do on-line stuff and could easily survive without the internet except for email and Google -- the library of the world!

Realityfan Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I just asked this friend of mine who I've only known for about 6 months if she watches bb and found out that she's just as big of a fan as I am. I'm so excited! Between this and our OCD we have a lot in common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
