You guys are missing one of the best seasons of all time. Tons of awesome drama and most of the cast are hardcore gamers. So so good.

Except this season is heavily favouriting Jason, as well as production. 2 weeks in and the only thing that has matter has been America's nom.

I can't get behind a season where America is the jury

I'm impressed with how quickly the hype for this disappeared :laugh:

Not just here, but social media as well.


Safe to say this was a complete failure

Too much too soon for me. I need a break in between Big Brothers :laugh: The months between the Canadian and U.S. versions is enough of a breather for me to get excited about each one again.

Not to mention the hoops you have to jump through as a Canadian to even watch it.

Yeah. Canada BB really did pick the perfect time frame to go to air.

This, just makes no sense to do TBH. I'm pretty sure people got over the extreme over the top personalities pretty quickly.


People have been calling for more strategic players, but they went in the complete wrong direction with it.

Theres a few gems in this cast. I'll only be watching the weekly episodes for this season though.

I honestly wonder if theyre going to make a profit off of this season. Where are they getting their revenue from? I doubt a $5 a month fee is going to cover all of it.

There aren't many (if any at all) "extreme over the top personalities" this season. Most of the cast are actually hardcore gamers. America has way too much power, though. I'm sure they'll be taking that down a notch next season.

I'm sure they're making enough money. I mean, it's not as if they're actually spending much on it. The house is identical to last season and the comps have been pretty "budget" so far. There's also no jury, which cuts the cost a ton (no jury stipend and no jury house to rent).

But theres still $250k price, plus all the staff required to run all the cameras etc. I'd love to see the numbers that they pull in but I doubt that would happen.

Victor and Paul were at West Edmonton Mall yesterday for photos and autographs. Victor looks a lot smaller then he did on TV, like thinner the Paul. My wife and I soooo wanted to start heckling Paul from the second floor but we had dinner reservations to make.

So 3/4 people that went home were American's nom. I know its a different format and all, but America has way to much power this season. Its essentially a popularity contest.

If you remember the first season of Big Brother in 2000, the audience voted who to evict, it was a popularity contest, I think BB UK still does it this way.

Biggest reason I haven't been watching. Although I've seen some buzz surrounding Scott. I hope they've figured out that to win, America has to like them the best.

[spoil]interesting how returning popular houseguests are often disliked the second time around

just goes to show how much sympathy they get when they get ganged up on within the house[/spoil]

Wasn't he always a piece of ****?

He talked a lot before, but like people started to do with Frank this year, they just took a pass on it because they disliked other people more, and he was rolling with players people liked.

Friendship should have won. Nicole is probably one of the most dull people ever. She's cute but I wouldn't be able to handle her annoying ass voice.
