bb11addict Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 everyone sounds excited about a possible celebrity edition but, there is one big problem that not everyone realizes if anyone else has looked over the celebrity editions in the UK there is one thing that is different from the normal edition of the show the celebrity editions of the show last between 8 days and 26 days celebrity UK 2001 - 8 days celebrity UK 2002 - 10 days celebrity UK 2005 - 18 days celebrity UK 2006 - 23 days celebrity UK 2007 - 26 days which is not very much time at all. where would CBS start? 1 week? 4 weeks? so a celebrity edition wouldn't be filling much of a gap but a month long celebrity edition in january, february, or march might be exciting which for me would be nice to hold me over until JULY when BB9 airs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echo Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 BB8Addict makes a very valid point. The longer they want to keep celebrities in the house, the shorter the list gets of quality people. Who wants to watch a bunch of washed up TV actors who all have been on the Love boat and Murder She Wrote (countless times). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCS Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Uhhhh....Isn't there a show called "The Surreal Life" were has-been Celebs live together in a house???? I think Celeb BB would be too much like it. Just sayin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LenLen702 Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 It's bad enough that BB likes to put 'semi-celebrities-wannabe' on the show....pls don't let this happen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it as good as Dancing with the Stars? I have only watched bits and pieces of "The Surreal Life".....it was too horrible to watch! I watch Talk Soup on E' sometimes and they would sometimes show a silly clip from that show. Anyways......CelebBB would be a mess to watch......pleeeeese no Celebs....... JMHO As popular as BB is.....I just don't think that they could get really good Celebs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bb9hopeful Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 As popular as BB is.....I just don't think that they could get really good Celebs. Exactly. They would get the no-name wanna-be celebrities who would be more involved with furthering their acting careers than actually playing the game. It would be no strategy, just a bunch of drama for no reason other than popularity. NO THANKS. Just go back to casting 14 strangers and let them work it out. Better yet, just pick me!

A_BB_Aholic Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I'd be cool with them doing a celebrity BB in the winter....then I wouldn't have to be sad about missing it. lol BTW, I enjoyed some of the surreal lifes...thought it was hilarious to see former 'stars' and their drama and all...but it would be crap for BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francis_3 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 If Danny D, Screetch and Johnny Fairplay were locked in the house together, I'd watch. Talk about your trainwreck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catniptoy Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 But would they have auditions for everyday people if they were going to have a celebrity edition? I still say a child star BB would be great, though. Imagine the Brady's and the Partridge family, all together in the house. Jan stabbing Marcia in the back by teaming up with Danny. That would be reality t.v. gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCS Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Oh lord....no Screetch....that AH ruined Celeb Fit Club for me. Now Celeb Fit Club is a show I enjoy. (before Screetch). If Screetch....was ever on BB.....I'd never ever watch it!!!!!! JMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure who is "Danny D" unless you are meant Danny Bonaduce. The idea of Screetch on any TV show gives me the shivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bb11addict Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 well, even if they were going to have a celebrity edition do you think that they want us to know? absolutely not. so they have those commercials so we don't think about it or at least, that's what i would do if i were them make people think that its going to be big brother 9 while actually working on celebrity big brother wouldn't you do the same?

TCS Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I'd think if they really were going to do a celebBB they would be all over the TV hawking it. JMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joah Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I agree. If they were going to do a celebrity version which I would personally love.... I think it would have come out by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerSnaps Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Yeah, a celebrity BB might just be the ticket for summer fun. They could put Rosie O, Britney and Lindsey in the house. Give them weapons...I'd watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenw_72 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I think celeb BB would be stupid.I have no interest watching them.Plus if they did do one it wouldn't be any celebs that are popular today. So when it comes down to it wouldn't it be a lot like the sureal life ? I would love to see plain old ppl not these model typed(okay maybe the guys could look like models..ha-ha).I don't want anyone to know a single person in the house. Like it use to be back in BB 1 2 3 4.Then 5 they started added ppl who knew each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catniptoy Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I guess the difference for me about BB versus the Surreal Life is that the people in the BB have no contact with the outside world (well, supposedly) and they have to do the competitions. I think it could be great fun, if they did a theme, as I said before. I could see them decorating the BB house all in 1970's stuff, with orange countertops in the kitchen, and bedrooms with the Brady girls' flowers all over the walls -- stuff like that. And maybe have a bunch of kids from the shows from the 70's and 80's. The Facts of Life girls, maybe, the Bradys, the Partridges.... It would be great, as long as it lasted more than a week. If it lasted less than a week, they'd probably still be on mostly good behavior with each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brekkie Boy Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 I think if BBUSA did Celeb BB it would be over a month or so - still with episodes three times a week but with a smaller cast (say 9) and evictions at least twice a week. It could still be a possibility for a shorter summer season - I think having the finale of BB9 in May and then premiering BB10 just a few weeks later might be a bit too much, so perhaps instead of BB10 having a Celeb BB in August might work better. It all depends on the strike I guess - will the second halve of the season be wiped off completely, or will episodes still be made once work resumes and be broadcast a couple of months late? I suspect though if the strike is still running next Spring BB10 would be pushed back to the fall schedule (if successful). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catniptoy Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 I think if they did a celeb version of BB at some point, they would have to get rid of all of the down time the houseguests have. They'd have to have something going on most of the time, because I don't think the celebs would put up with that much boredom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerSnaps Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 I wouldn't mind seeing celebrities on BB if they have to leave their makeup, hair straighteners, curling irons, false eyelashes and teeth at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
