For those of you at work who can't watch the video, graciously provided by JT1972 here's the gist on the twist:
- Julie: It wouldn't be BB without a Big Twist - each HG filled out a love match profile as part of their application.
Alison Grodner: 16 singles living in a house suddenly discover that their "perfect match" is sitting right next to them. Your life in the house depends on this other person. You're gonna sleep in the same bed together, compete together, hold the HoH together, get nominated together and ultimately get evicted together.
MMMMMMMmmmm.
ReplyDeleteJuicy!
I was not impressed about the "Twist" at first, but the more I think about it, the more I like it, and I am sure we haven't heard all of it yet either.
Its looking better and better the more I see.
Thanks, Carolyn!
oh boy.....
ReplyDeletethanks for all your hard work, carolyn! you're awesome!
ReplyDeletei wanted to ask you... i was reading their bios and you can kind of tell who they paired up with who, but i read in an earlier post that you knew a few who didn't have a parner. is that true and can you tell us which ones?! :D
the house looks so cool! is that hawaiian room the round room?
i'm excited! xD
Well from the research you have done obviously they are not 16 singles as alison says...But it sounds exciting!! I can't wait!
ReplyDeleteGiven it is still a 3-month season, I'm assuming after a couple double evicts they will start evicting one-by-one. Go Neil!!
ReplyDeleteThe hawaiian room is the HOH aint it?
ReplyDeleteI really like that idea/twist! However, I'm disturbed by the 45 year old... Any thoughts?
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm not disturbed by her, but I wonder if her perfect match is actually 20 years younger than her? Strange... Wasn't that show called "Age of Love"??!
ReplyDeleteI think Sharon and Jacob are ex's. His profile on CBS site says he is having a hard time getting over his ex and he has a tatoo that his ex designed. Her profile says that she has a self designed tatoo. They also have a Marine history.
ReplyDeleteLOL beth&eric!! Ya know there's gotta be one in every bunch. She seems on the wild side too. Her neck annoys me. Unless the new 21" widescreen monitor I bought for the feeds is making it look like that...nah, then they'd all have them.
ReplyDeleteGood call Anon @ 6:57 -- strange coincidence. If they're not exes, maybe they're a match!
ReplyDeleteOK, this could be really good- or really bad!!!
ReplyDeleteCass
Info Overload!! I just got online this morning and I'm overwhelmed! We had tornadoes last night in Arkansas, and I'm not talking about Clinton/Obama. Breathe, breathe, breathe. I'm so excited about this season. It's the season of love! Carolyn, I think I love you, lol!!!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, about the 45 year old, someone in there must be into older women. She's a cougar!!
It's getting better, and it hasn't even begun! : )
ReplyDeletei bet the 45 year old is with james. because his bio says he was engaged to an older woman.
ReplyDeleteand i agree about sharon and jacob.
Curious.
ReplyDeleteOf course, I already have picked out the ones I can't stand.
older women? i was born in 1974 and my wife was born in 1960!
ReplyDeleteI guess that throws out the Mom theory! Unless she's a "MILF" (hope that's not to crude Carolyn - please to edit if necessary ;<).
ReplyDeleteI guess we have to root for the "Older Woman" she's kinda alone in the house. Or maybe she won't be! (huba huba)
andre - i concur
ReplyDeleteamber - i love you too. :)
david - i hear ya. october '68 here.
gail - hehe. you're sweet. MILF is just fine. i appreciate the asking.
cliff & Beth - morning!
OK, i did something I thought i'd never do---i signed up for the live feeds! I've downloaded the realplayer and did the credit card thing, but NOW WHAT? this thing needs better directions.
ReplyDeleteangie - yayyy you! (especially if you signed up from one of the links her eon the blog) what's confusing you?
ReplyDeleteCarolyn,
ReplyDeleteOf course I signed up through your blog :) wouldn't have it any other way.
The whole thing is confusing me LOL
After i put in the credit card info and it started the real player download I haven't seen anything else indicating big brother. how do i find it?
oh, duh.
ReplyDeleteI think i have it now. *smacks forhead*
angie Thanks! :) glad you got it all sussed out. :)
ReplyDeleteoh yeah! Of course the live feeds aren't on yet, but there's TONS of other stuff on here that I never realized were part of this deal. *happy*
ReplyDeletecrap... i was hoping for a boring azz season. :p
ReplyDeleteSo.. How does the "dirty little secrets" have to do with the whole Soulmates theme?? Been trying to piece that all together... After reading their bios, I do think a lot of the houseguests do know of each other, and that they will be pairing them with people other than the ones that they know..
ReplyDeleteNothing's changed for Canada of course, SuperPass does NOT come with $10 of free music or a free video game. Again I say, that sux!
ReplyDeletedavid b./ddbann
david - look on the bright side - your dollar's worth more than ours.
ReplyDeleteBOB - Thanks.. already have Allison listed on the left sidebar, right below the Digg button, where it says BB9 HG Myspaces
ReplyDeleteOK, Carolyn. I think Neil and Joshuah might know each other...they were both at UT-Austin in 2000, according to their myspace profiles.
ReplyDeleteStacey- I don't think there ever was a "dirty little secrets" theme. It was the tone of the commercials they aired because they didn't know the cast or the twist yet. They found a great song, and during every season cast members are hiding something, are batshit nuts or know each other, it would work no matter what.
ReplyDeleteLive feed question!!!!
ReplyDeleteCan I only view on one computer or do you log in and you can view on more than one computer? I have my laptop and my pc!!!! Can I view them both, and different times of course!
Thanks!
Gail, I believe that's a yes.
ReplyDeleteIf they gave me $10 worth of music to keep , a video game a month to keep and all the rest including BB 24-7 for $15 a month i would keep it 12 months a year
ReplyDeleteGail - To answer your question it works great. I had two systems, sometimes 3 running with different cameras at the same time. I event had one system running the Quad camera and one on a single. That way I didn't miss anything. Of course I muted all but one so I could hear and not go crazy. Anyway it works perfectly fine.
ReplyDeletecambik - thanks for confirming that :)
ReplyDeletecall me weird, I like the live feeds but half the time or more the volume was off. i couldn't take dick's language or some of the rest of em
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh!! I'm so excited for this season to begin!!!
ReplyDelete16 people paired up = only 8 weeks though, right? :(
I wonder who my faourite will end up being. weird how a stranger can grow on you. my past faves include Allison season ummm 6 or 5 blond girl, James 5/6, kaysar, zach.
ReplyDeleteit's weird to look at the photo's because i know i'll have a fave but until it all unfolds their strangers
thats so deep LOL
melanie- Nothing has been confirmed, but I assume it will be "couple evictions" until there are 10 players or so left (so 3 of them), and then they do "single evictions" through the jury stage. It is still a 3-month season, ending May 6th.
ReplyDeleteCambik - thanks, I didn't want to be tied to one computer! I need to take it with me, where ever I go!
ReplyDeleteThanks Carolyn - keep up the good work!
Oh Stacey, that is very interesting!! I hadn't thought about the twist that way. They know someone in the house, but are paired with someone else...mmhmmm that could be VERY VERY interesting!
ReplyDeleteHoly nickers! I just blinked and realized I am completely out of the loop!!! WOW...I need a sec to digest all of this...Carolyn, I swear I will never skip reading BB9Dish for several days in a row ever again!
ReplyDeleteDID ANYONE ELSE SEE THE PICS OF THE HOUSE? THERE IS A 2 PERSON SAUNA, MASSAGE TABLE AND A POOL TABLE... ALSO I SAW A HAMSTER TRAIL/CAGE? AM I GOING CRAZY OR ARE THERE MORE THINGS IN THERE THAN NORMAL? WHAT'S THE DEAL???
