Why?! I feel like those deserve second chances given the sh-tty cast they were placed in. Having to endure the racism and bullying should ensure another chance for them. I'd even add Jessie from their season to that list too. Yes, Howard sucked but I think now he'd play a better game. Howard could've made it far had he not lied to Helen's face and came clean about the Moving Company like Spencer did.

I thought he was an idiot. He came across like a buffoon in that season with his lame attempts at gameplay. He also came across as less than smart when it came to talking to people. I was embarassed for him. He would have been better for a show like Survivor where muscles get you a longer way than brain and mouth

I don't know why BBUS won't do All Stars again?

Maybe because they cast shitty people and realize it's a STRUGGLE to actually put together a cast people would watch again, especially when you have one season a year. Maybe because they wasted Janelle, Boogie, Dan, Britney, Rachel, Jordan, Jeff, Dick, Dani and Brendon on shitty seasons with horrible newbie casts? 10 players who could have formed an all star season were used in just OK twists with shitty newbies I'd be fine never seeing again. Ian and Frank would be the only two I could see being asked back. They might be desperate and get looney Danielle (or overly tanned Shane) back.

There best chance at an All Star season is a legends season with winners and huge players but even that's a stretch.

And Chenbot, hun, if your hubs or whoever is in charge decreed this season to be all stars the newbies would be scrapped in a second. I wouldn't put much stock in what she says.

I remember the last two seasons people on the boards here and elsewhere were wanting All Stars and I was always like "why" and I still stand by that. I don't agree that they should NEVER do it again, but don't waste some of your most popular players on twists that suck.

I preferred it on Slice too. The casting was better and a bit more diverse (though BBCan still tops, for me, BBUS in terms of diversity in casting). Season 2 remains one of my favorite seasons of Big Brother ever.

If anyone has Twitter, you have to follow Jun. She's hilarious and just finished watching BBCAN2 and is rewatching All Stars. She lives in Belgium with her hubs and kid and runs Rice House, but she seems open to doing BB again. She seems to be on a BB nostalgia kick lately. Her tweets are just gold. I loved watching her play.

I don't think Godfrey is anywhere near Jun or Will's or even Dan's level. I don't know. Maybe when I eventually re-watch the season but he was virtually invisible for a majority of the beginning of the season. Not Willow levels, but close. I just never saw this amazing gameplay from him. He credits his amazing strategy for the JP blindside but it really had nothing to do with anything he did. I dunno. I want to like him and love his game but I really didn't see it. He talked big but it all seemed staged and scripted to me, especially his DRs. And speaking of that, I'm tired of the DR altogether. Zach's were awful, it was like he was reading a teleprompter every time with his goofy smile and grin. Sigh. Half of Britt's sounded scripted.

Arisa Cox did well to manage the chaos, but that studio audience was so deflated at the end.  The outcome was both shocking and hilarious.  I wish something like that would happen on BB USA; I would love to see how Chenbot would handle the situation. #ButFirst

It wouldn't happen on BBUS b/c production is so controlled with everything. Plus, I think they make the jurors do a practice run on BBUS before the live finale. I don't think (not sure) that BBCAN did a practice run during the original season. I think they do now and on every finale since s1, Arisa stresses to the jurors (with laughter) that they are voting for the person they want to win. 

 

The BB fandom was deflated at first, but we all got over it quickly. As aforementioned, Gary and Jillian were a strong and likable F2 that it was a win/win either way. Plus, Gary emerged as the big star and did all the spinoffs, so it worked in his favor anyways. I just wish his game was as tight in s5 as it was his first season. Gary was so checked out this second time playing.

      https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/may/11/trump-accept-luxury-plane-gift-qatar Donald Trump is reportedly ready to accept a luxury plane described to be a “palace in the sky” being offered to the US president as a gift from Qatar’s royal family, almost immediately igniting accusations of bribery and corruption as well as commensurate criticism. citing multiple sources familiar with the matter, ABC reported (link) that the Trump administration was preparing to accept a luxury Boeing 747-8, a jumbo jet from the Qatari royals that was estimated to be about $400m. Trump would then use the 13-year-old plane as the new Air Force One until shortly before the conclusion of his second Oval Office stint, at which point it would be transferred to his presidential library foundation no later than 1 January 2029. The luxury gift from Qatar is expected to be announced next week during Trump’s three-day tour of the Middle East that includes Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, ABC reported. Trump toured the opulent plane in February while it was parked at the West Palm Beach international airport, ABC added. According to ABC’s sources, Trump’s attorney general Pam Bondi and his top White House lawyer David Warrington have pre-emptively concluded that it is “legally permissible” for Trump to accept the luxury gift and then transfer it over to his presidential library.

      Yeah I’m confused how wearing baggier clothing wouldn’t just make him even smaller. I have no problem with his fashion at all. He’s a well put together man.

      The problem is that foyer doesn't look like it has ANY connection to that garbage glitter trash living room at Bill and Hayley's. I have to disagree strongly with both of you on Andre's wardrobe. I like it -- a lot. I don't think anything about it is dated, but that he looks like a guy who cares about fashion. Andre is a short king, but I don't want to see him lost in baggy clothes or chunky sweaters.

      Yes, it has. It was seen in the episodes when Dani broke into the house while Hayley and Bill were on their honeymoon. Dani and a Fairmont Crest security guard were also shown outside the house's entrance. Bill and Hayley were seen in the foyer when they returned. I imagine the set will resurface when there's a need for it.

      There is some kind of arrangement going on between Justin and Evie, who seems to be caring for Sam. I'm not sure, but she may even be living there with Justin and Phillip. Phillip inviting Evie at least makes a little more sense (if the guest list was limited to women Vanessa liked, it would've only consisted of Trish and Helena. lol)  Maybe it was more common to hang on to performers, back in the day? Instead of immediately kicking them to the curb? Evie hadn't had much to do after Chet was revealed to be her stalker. With Rita, Jackie and Ben gone, there weren't many on the canvas she'd really worked with, other than Ross. They could've pivoted her back to Ross, instead of letting him languish love-less for nearly a year other than goo-goo eyeing Amanda. Nowadays, there might've been a moment written Jordan and Janet, an eye-wink to the audience about them having previously worked together.

      I 100% agree that Bill and Haley's set would work better as a bedroom. I also think it might have made more sense to give them a penthouse instead of a mansion. Realistically they aren't going to have the room for multiple mansions, even with the larger studios. A more open concept penthouse would've been fine. I also wish more people lived together. The age confusion kinda messes that up but I would at least have Chelsea living with Dani. If Martin were Anita and Vernon's child (as he should be), I'd have these families living together as well. By doing that, the space used for Martin and Smitty's house could be used to build a dining room for the Dupree home and I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to throw a couple bedrooms in as needed.
