Violations Lead To Viewers Deciding Big Brother Winner?
On the official CBS Big Brother website, there is a “You, the Jury” poll where viewers can vote on which of the final two All-Stars that they want to win Big Brother. After voting for one of the two candidates, a message appears that says “Thank you for voting. If the jury vote is tied, your vote could help determine the winner.” At first thought, this message doesn’t make much sense, because there are seven jury members so there is no way that there could be a tie. Or could there?
In the fine print on the actual poll page, it clarifies “In the event that one of the jurors is unable to perform their duties, your vote could be used to break a tie to help determine the winner of Big Brother All-Stars.” Still, it would seem unlikely that any juror member would give up their right in voting to decide who gets the half-million dollars. However, a much more likely scenario is that a juror could be disqualified from voting for breaking the rules of the sequester house.
Big Brother producers have been very careful to control the jurors access to information. Jurors are allowed to see footage of the actual televised evictions, but they don’t have access to what other houseguests might be saying on the live feeds or in diary room segments. If jurors got to see diary room segments, then houseguests wouldn’t feel free to make all the nasty comments about each other that keep viewers entertained and the ratings high.
What would happen if a couple Big Brother jurors snuck out of sequester? They could potentially have access to the Internet or other people who watched the show. They could get information that might affect their voting decision. If they did receive information, then it could create an unfair voting situation, because houseguests are under the impression that their comments in the diary room and on the live feeds won’t be revealed to the jury before they vote.
According to CBS Palm Springs local news (via JokersUpdates.com), it turns out that some of the Big Brother jurors have apparently snuck out of the sequester house. CBS Palm Springs reports that some of that Big Brother All-Stars were spotted in Indio, California singing karaoke, playing some golf, and drinking. A picture and video shows what appears to be Big Brother jury members Will Kirby and Danielle Reyes. There is no information in regards to if other members of the jury were with them, but a producer of Big Brother reportedly put a stop to it when he found out what was going on. In a video interview on CBS Palm Springs, restaurant manager Robert Castanata says that a producer “came in, dragged them out, and said let’s go, we’ve got to get out of here, because you’re not supposed to be out.”
Could some of the jurors be disqualified from voting for breaking the rules of sequester? The answer might come down to how many members of the jury were involved and if they really snuck out as reported. If all or most of the jury members in sequester snuck out, then it would seem unlikely that CBS would disqualify virtually everyone. If only two or three members of the jury snuck out, then disqualifications might very well happen and viewer voting could help determine the winner of Big Brother All-Stars.
