From RealityBBQ:

The Big Brother timeline of events...

February 2nd, 2008

Beyond stories we hear from semi-finalists that didn’t make the cut this year there shouldn’t be much news today.

February 3rd, 2008

Sundays are normally a quiet news day. A few newspapers might publish articles talking about February sweeps and CBS’s efforts to climb the rating totem pole with the winter edition of Big Brother 9.

February 4th, 2008

On January 28th eight reality TV reporters entered the Big Brother house for 12 hours of “Big Brother.” They were able to take photos and videos of the new house during the time they were in the house. They could not reveal what they saw until February 4th, or today. Expect to see websites like RealityWanted.net, EW.com, and others to post the images they captured on that day.

February 5th, 2008

Usually there is a magazine that gets first dibs on houseguest information. EW.com will probably post the names of the houseguests along with short bios (age, city).

February 6th, 2008

CBS will probably release more complete bios about each houseguests. We will probably also learn the twists – if there are any. Julie Chen will show footage she filmed in the house and reveal the houseguests on the Early Show.

February 7th, 2008

It’s my birthday and I don’t care what happens in the Big Brother world. May you all rot in hell.

February 8th, 2008

More video packages from the tv tabloids should start airing. The houseguests will probably enter the house today and the first HoH will be chosen.

February 9th, 10th, 11th , 2008

Nominations will already happen before the show premieres.

February 12th, 2008

Big Brother 9 premieres on CBS!

I'm so excited for BB9! I hope that since it's 'winter' (really though, how cold is winter in LA?) that the houseguests will do less sunbathing and more fighting, LoL.

Screw "Days." I'm over it. I'm all about BB for the next three months!

Can't wait for pictures of the new house -- hopefully on Monday. Hopefully it's not a giant eye-sore.

Since they said it would be a regular length season, I assumed we would get the regular number of houseguests, but it looks like they added two more! LoL

Either the finalists were so good that they couldn't choose just 14, or this is going to be part of some new twist. I heard a spumor (even before this commercial aired) that there would be 12 people in the house and then 4 people somewhere else in the house that the rest didn't know about.

I'm not sure what purpose that would serve, but it's interesting nonetheless! LoL There must be a few double eviction weeks this season.

Sixteen houseguests. Wow. It'll take forever to memorize their names! LoL The live cams are so frustrating for the first two weeks, because you can't tell one voice apart from another and it's like one giant cluster of confusion, LoL.

OMG!! Here we go!

Remember how reports said that members of the media were allowed into the Big Brother house last week for a 12 hour mini-Big Brother game? Well, they've now released the video of that game, and you can see the new house in it!

Of course, they weren't allowed to see all of the house, but this gives us a pretty good idea of what it'll look like. Definitely a log cabin/wintery theme. I love it! It looks so warm and cozy and... chlaustrophobic, LoL. I just don't think I like that big green couch. Eeek! It might grow on me, though.!

Here's the video!! Eeeeeeekkk...

Keep in mind, these are not the houseguests, just members of media that were in the house temporarily.

RealityBBQ!

Here are screencaps that I took from the video! :)

I can't believe that they actually have a fireplace! LoL One that they can use!

Also, from the video, it looks like they moved the gym outdoors. I wonder why? What's going into the old gym room? Questions, questions...

They're airing a "Soulmates" promo now.

I'm totally confused as to what it means. Perhaps they've given people secret partners and they have to try to take one another to the end? I don't quite understand, LoL.

"We've matched each of them with a soulmate! They'll compete together, and if they're not careful -- they'll be evicted together!"

This could either be very good, or VERY lame, LoL.

lol. i kinda like the idea of them having a "soulmate" they have to work with. 8 pairs of 2 (16). That way, at least initially, we can solve the double evictions by having a pair evicted each week until we get down to a reasonable amount of players.

Kinda makes sense, actually, if it ends up working out that way.

First comment... Allison looks like Rachael Ray! LoL Does she not?! Especially her mouth. It's like the same exact smile!

Chelsia looks like a straight up schemer, LoL. I love her Victoria Beckham-esque hairstyle.

Shelia, for some reason, reminds me of someone. I can't put my finger on it.

That hairstyle James is sportin' needs to go. Fugly!

Parker's a paparazzo? Awesome! Now he can know what it's like to be under the direct eye of cameras, LoL.

Adam looks like he needs to eat more fiber.

Natalie = slutbag with fake boobs.

Jen looks like a sweetheart!

Amanda looks fun! I think she'll jump right into the scheming and plotting. She just seems like that type, LoL.

Anyone suspect any father/daughter or ex-lovers teams?! Jen and Ryan both being from Columbus is rather suspicious. Hmm...

Quite a few cute guys this season. Ryan, Neil, Matt, Jacob, Joshua and Alex are all rather attractive. I think it'll be hard to tell them apart, though, LoL. Also, I think it'll be hard to tell Jen and Sharon apart for the first week or so.

Looks like a promising group, IMO!

Oooh, and notice... no Joey Butafucco! LoL!

    • I think the shocker would be if he's NOT playing Dumas. That's where Josh Griffith plays most of his stories. Now they have Cole "self-isolating" because they don't want to put up that hospital set. Will Cole cough himself to death at the GCAC? What a "storyline." I can't believe how much JG is playing with us regarding Nick and Sharon. The teasing has become pathetic, especially for Shick fans who want them back together. My guess is that he'll reveal his real name once he is exposed.
    • Maybe we'll meet Leslie's mama who'll be a former Articulette and they'll build the rival family from there that a lot of people seem to think is missing. It'd make sense considering Anita's been hammering on about going on tour and reviving her music career. 
    • hahaha at the Brennan shade.   But even I saw this and have to agree. What's really sad is that some of the person on that list could easily have a love interest that is on the canvas. They just need to be written for. 
    • The thought has crossed my mind. Tricia Mann-Grant did say in her EW interview w/ MVJ and DD, that Leslie wants to be a Dupree just as bad as she wants Eva to be. I believe now that's the direction they are going in, that maybe she is just obsessed with the family. I could be wrong though.
    • True. But I have always had mixed feelings about that twist. Since I love the Damian storyline which already had twists and turns. Also I could not wait for a new powerful AND BLACK businessman to mix it up at some point with Victor. It just seem like another twist that was added on for twist sake. And also for a character (whether I love him or not) to hijack a new and refreshing storyline so they can be propped.    Once good thing that I can say about JG is that he loves to keep the Abbotts in rotation. So I could see that happening with Diane. I don't think she has mentioned her backstory, either. I would be intrigued. 
    • That's how I feel. Beats could have been played for the past couple months wherein Dante and Gio interacted and had a difference of opinion -- or something. I don't know. I do know that this crushing rant that blames everything on Gio is absurd. -- Reading over all the comments here about characters and couples, it's kind of amazing that we have any show left considering the number of times actors and writers and execs were given influence to make major character and story decisions. Too many cooks in the kitchen.
    • Lol. But Jeffrey was weak to mama. Leslie can go dead because anger is a great motivator via Martin defending HIS mama and just not taking ish altogether. This ain't how it should be. They need not run the show like this. It's too noticeable. The way Eva said mama reminded me of Penny from Good Times. Instead of physical abuse it's mental abuse.
    • Oh, I see! You posted this on the general retro soap thread because of the voiceover.
    • Yeah, I agree. It's part of the reason I have shade picked on Martin's Secret being so on the backburner that it was about to fall off of it. With Dani/Bill/Hayley being the main tale to start us off and backburned and the SilkPress storyline being well paced, but not set to explode until May, Martin's Secret was the other main storyline that could have been developed. And after giving it a nice slow burn to start off, the story upped and vanished in Month 2. That left the show having to rely on mostly B/C stories to stay afloat to various degrees of success.
