« Big Brother
Episode 1 Recap
Hi, all.
I'm trying to find you all a new blogger for the summer so this show doesn't completely take over my entire life....
In the meantime, I'll be blogging about it in my Surfer Girl blog, so head over there if you want to discuss the episodes as they air.
If you want to discuss spoilers, the live feeds or After Dark, please go ahead and post below.
Thanks!

Nooo Angel. Please stay with us. You have been blogging for my favorite shows (Lost, Scrubs, Heroes, Prison Break), but you've given them up to other people. Not this one too!! Hopefully it just means that your job here has been changing and nothing else is wrong. Anyway, I actually hate spoilers, but for some reason I love them for Big Brother. Don't have anything to report yet, but just wanted to put my two cents out there.

I'm sure this post will ge me hated but I have to know. Before I waste time and money on live feed or after dark can anyone tell me if either features unedited nudity?
I know some of the over seas versions of Big Brother tend to be racier than the American version. Just wonder if live feeds and after dark are worth the extra money or to just stick with the free CBS episiodes and read spoilers of the live feeds.

I already don't like Joe. Anyone else? Oh, and Eric as America's Player is a good choice. He seems really nice.

After Dark will have unedited nudity; It's rated TV-MA and has Adult Content and Adult Language.
But to be honest, I'm watching it now, and it's quite boring. The only thing that would possibly interesting (or likely) would be a Jen pulling a Janet Jackson.

SPOILER ALERT (do we have to put these?):
Carol and Amber have been nominated for eviction. From what Carol is saying (on Showtime), she and Amber have become pretty close friends.
It has been a little boring so far, but I'm going to give it some time. I'm pretty sure someone (jokersupdates maybe) will be doing recaps. I'll probably just read those and watch it on DVR if anything interesting happens.

Yeah, do a Spoiler tag for posterity.

okay it was only 12 to add the show time package to my direct tv. I'm confused though is the after dark stuff live or prerecorded? I know there is a time zonedifferience but right now they are in the back yard and i is bright as day.

Lawler, It's all live. It's 9:50 pm there. I think they always keep the back yard completely lit.

WANING THIS POST IS FOR MATURE EYES ONLY
Okay the after dark show has me confused. The feeds cut in and out between people almost randomly. Also I can't tell when people are playing to the camera being real joking or flat out lieing.
I swear the feed cut in mid conversation on Nick in the hot club telling the group his dad thought he was gay because he never brought girls home or talked about girls then he added and one time I gave a guy a blow job. He said this in the same tine and manner he said everything else. Also ther was no real reaction from the group he was talking to. I don't know if that was true or staged for the cameras.

The live feeds and ShoToo would show nudity if there was any. Unfortunately (for those wanting to see anything) the US Big Brother players usually go out of their way to hide nudity. They change in the shower, or in the toilet stall, or under blankets, things like that (at least past casts have.) I didn't get the live feeds this year because they don't show the challenges live, and cut off any time someone starts singing (licensing issues) or talks about the behind the scenes stuff. Like being sequestered before the start of the show, interaction with producers, or even diary room talk. So, while the live feeds and ShoToo can give you a whole lot more info into the game and players than what is shown on tv, if you're hoping for nudity, you can probably order porn much cheaper.

another reason the feeds may seem to jump around is if a houseguest starts talking about people at home and BB doesn't have a signed consent form for that individual. In the past, houseguests have been "edited", for lack of a better word, if they talk about certain people specifically. Janelle used to refer to her boyfriend by a nickname rather than by his real name to protect his privacy.

Hmmmmmm.... So far not impressed with the group as a whole. But like always I am sure I will have a few favorites after a couple of shows. Just from last night I was totally annoyed with Jessica (she was the girl hidden upstairs right?) and her 'she owed me $5 from high school' valley girl talk. Also Joe got on my nerves after awhile with his over the top gay self and his ex Dustin wasn't too far behind, even though I like him better. I would have killed him for the gonorrhea outing. Too bad Valtrex (or is that for herpes?) didn't plug in a commercial after that chat. I am liking Eric as the Americas Player and think it will be interesting to see how that plays out. Does anyone know yet how that is going to work? Do we have multiple choice as to what to make him do or can you just make comments on what you would like to see? I Tivo'd BB After Dark so there goes another 3 hours of my life but I am sure that will have some interesting bits. My top picks so far as guys is Eric or Nick and girls is Danielle - of course I am sure that will change as we go along. Does anyone have a favorite yet?

I'm not sure if I was just irritable while watching the show but the majority of the players all got on my nerves! I didn't find one that I particularly liked. The girl upstairs (whatever her name was) was the most irritating. I was ready to smack her. I'm sure Kayli(sp)the mom will be one to go very quickly.
