    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The events of 9/11 occurred during season 2 and was the only time house guests (the final 3) were informed of outside information. This was due to one player having direct ties to the event.
    • Goofs
      Frequent continuity errors. It's clear that many scenes were filmed hours or days apart and then edited together with =out consideration for whether or not they visually flowed together.
    • Quotes

      [week 5, in the diary room, after the PoV competition]

      Will Kirby: Hey Boogie, did you win PoV today?

      Mike Malin: Nah. I won a trip to Aruba for two and a plasma television. Did you win PoV?

      Will Kirby: No... I won uh, five thousand bucks.

      [both look at camera with serious faces before bursting out in laughter]

    • Crazy credits
      At the end of every eviction episode, Julie Chen Moonves ends the episode by saying 'lets eavesdrop on the house guests' and while the credits are rolling there is a live feed on the house guests.

    Give us a Big Brother II!!!!!
    Oh, come on! Survivor has NOTHING on Big Brother! Whereas the competitions on Survivor were tense and contrived, Big Brother gives viewers an excited, often light-hearted atmosphere of laid-back FUN.

    Ever since they got rid of Will, Jordan, and Karen, Big Brother is finally shaping up to be an intriguing show...no longer are certain houseguests trying to purposely cause conflict, but "Big Brother" behind the cameras is now trying to cause the conflict by interrogating the houseguests, attempting to pit them against each other, and teasing them with indulgent incentives.

    LOVE the group dynamics...Cassandra trying to keep everyone in line, Jamie getting all starstruck, Eddie rolling his eyes at everything that happens, Brittany hugging/squeezing everyone who crosses her path, George making a fool out of himself...it's HILARIOUS! I thought the "Karen Springer Show", the pie-eating contest, the dance marathon, and the "beauty pageant" were incredibly funny.

    And I think host Julie Chen is really likable and does a great job with it. I want CBS to bring back Big Brother with a new group of houseguests.

    So there!
