Big Brother 17: Discussion Thread

[London]

It's about that time again! We are just 17 days away from the premiere and I am way too wired!

I need the cast to be revealed like, June 1st. Hopefully we get some leaks about who Grodhog has cast. Do you hope for some of BB past to show up once again or...

Julie recently posted this on Twitter...



I still love when The Talk go in the BB HOuse and they always crack me up with the HOH and noms. ceremony.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Is it wrong that I look forward to seeing the storage room?

Here's a video from Entertainment Tonight:

The house designs looks better than last season b/c I've grown tired of the same design. Plus, it gives them less places to scheme upstairs now that they've removed the door from HoH bathroom and redid the upstairs area with the skybridge.

I hope the concept has some change to it like have/have nots specifically. IMO, I want them to get rid of that whole concept altogether. I'd prefer if the house had a grocery budget b/c that'd cause a lot of drama. Like have them compete for money for the house grocery budget and then have them elect 2-4 people to select groceries for the week. That'd create drama b/c you have your smokers, your people that love meats, your vegans. They'd all clash over how they want the money to be divided. And if they run out of groceries before the week is up then slop should come into play.

HoH of course should have their own personal grocery list. Hell, give them their own little penthouse from the remainder of the house. That'd make people throw HoH less.

I like it a lot more in motion, that sky walk is dope.

Hahahaha no bathroom door. I like that...

BB should hire you for some creative nuggets of wisdom to add some spice back to this show. I'm so sick of recruits too. Like GTFO!

[NothinButAttitude]

They do need to hire me. At least my ideas would be better than the sh-t that's on air.

And I don't mind recruits if they played like Brittnee on BBCAN. She was the perfect example of a recruit. She played with no fear hence why the general and online audience loved her but BB alumnus (i.e. Derrick & Dick) didn't like her. If she had played opposite them, she would've gotten rid of their bum asses at the first chance, which would've made me happy.

[London]

They would.

Did she win?

[NothinButAttitude]

No. Brittnee came in fourth. Had she not given up on the final POV, knew her dates, and won POV, she would've been a sure-in for final two. Godfrey or Sarah would've taken her to final two. Shocking season b/c black contestants are never fans faves but they were this past season on BBCAN3--both Britt & God. Also, Naeha, who was Punjabi Indian.

Dick and Derrick don't like her b/c she benefitted from all the twists on BBCAN, which unlike them she EARNED and WON. Production had to blatantly rig for both of them to stay and win.

[London]

Ooooooo and yes that is shocking because we never do well. Canada proves to be somewhat superior. I really liked Gary but I didn't watch BBCAN this past season. Hahahaha not to mention Dick used fear, bullying and intimidation to stay in the house alongside with the infamous pet rig.

Derrick was just so vanilla, like I would need Kenya or Nene to dress him down in a read for me so that it would really sink in.

[dm.]

BBCAN is definitely superior. I'm sad that there's no excitement for me approaching the new season. I only wish we'd see what the show would be like without Grodner or whoever rigs the competition year after year (and puts incredibly dull people as a part of the cast).

Just found out that my next-door neighbor's sister is on this season of Big Brother!! Her name is Meg and she's damn cool and fun. I had the privilege of interviewing her last year for her web series, Fruit Flies.

Here's our BB17 cast:

There are sixteen total so I am assuming we'll have two returning players or possible coaches.. :eyeroll:

I hate how once again there is no diversity and shockingly, most of them (well 3) are from Georgia. I expect those three to form some sort of alliance. Hopefully, I'll wanna root for the home team.

But at this moment, I am rooting for the 'sista,' Da'Vonne.

[Wizzerkat]

Damn, that cast is pasty! Apparently the oldest person is 33? Gah... Oh, and are they supposed to be taking selfies?

[slick jones]

I stopped watching for years and started again two or three seasons ago. NBA...you should be on the production staff. Love your ideas!

It is one pasty bunch...I guess no Rachel from Spokane, eh...LOL She could identify as a Have when she's a Have Not! LOL

[NothinButAttitude]

I didn't even notice that until you said that. That'll partially explain the age range too. They are trying to appeal to a younger audience while alienating the older audience, who has all the buying power. I swear network heads are stupid.

Thank you! I should be! But they'd wanna get rid of my ass b/c I'd have something to say about every little thing.
