I can't imagine BB is worse than playoff hockey. Then again BB seems to inspire strong reactions.

I can't wait for this season to start!

Iluv, we don't have the live feeds here, but we do have showtime, so we'll have BB after dark if they continue to air it.

I had a heck of a time getting mine cancelled. It's hard to get ahold of anyone and then when you finally do they want your first born child in exchange for cancellation. I do have Showtime After Dark and watch that occasionally.

I have done the feeds for 2 years now and they are fun! They do tend to annoy me cause sometimes out of the 4 cameras we see they will have 2 of the same on 2 cameras so they arent really giving us 4 convos KWIM? And the only other thing that bugs me is when they "blue screen" us if they are talking about something we cant hear.

I like that we get to see some of the competitions, and we get the results right away rather than waiting or reading it off a website.

It is TOTALLY worth buying because some may not know but you are given $10 worth of free music a month in credits. I think I got the 3 month special for $39.95 and it was charged once and I didnt have any problems with Real Player, they are VERY accommodating.

So take the $40 - $30 in free music and its a $10 season. Just make sure you get the Reloader for free, it is SOOOO worth it.

I didnt have a single problem, on the contrary they gave me like 4 months of free service when I said I wanted to cancel LOL!

I wanted to bump this cause Showtime is having a promo for you BB fans that like to watch BB After Dark.

I just called my provider to order HBO for True Blood and she told me about a promo they are running til June 30th where Showtime is $5.99 a month. That is cheap!

BUT there is also a promo from Showtime where after 3 months of having SHO you mail them a copy of your bill for those months and they will send you a $25 Visa card.

Hopefully all providers are running the cheap promo cause that makes it free basically for the 3 months that After Dark is on.

I have the address of where to mail the info to if anyone needs it.

last year i was really tempted to cancel my starz/encore package deal to get showtime for the bb season. I just get to it, but I might look into it this year. I think i can do it online. Plus there seem to be quite a few shows on showtime that i wish i could watch, but i can't! so it might be worth the switch.

I was on jokers site and read this:

Quote:
I live in the LA area and my brother works for security on the BB lot. I decided I'd venture into the lot and see if I could get any info from the construction workers, etc.

I met this one guy and I told him I worked as an intern for CBS. He did not believe me, but his friend walked by as I was leaving and sarcastically said "who's idea was it to build a second %#@^ing house this year?". I said "WAIT A SECOND HOUSE!?" and the guy goes "Yeah. An exact freaking replica".

Interested, I walked around the lot and asked everyone I could about the new season. I talked with a woman who claimed to be close to the show. She explained that this year, there are apparently two houses with 12 people in each. They both think they're in the original (and only) house. The idea is that it's a battle of the houses. Each week, one person from each house is evicted. And at the end, America decides which of the two winners (one winner in each house) gets to keep the money.

I didn't believe this woman at first, but with the construction worker saying the whole building another house thing... it just might be true.

Who knows if its true or not but wouldnt that be a hoot to have 2 houses and they both dont know the other is there LOL!

I've watched Big Brother faithfully since the second season and I LOVE it. I can not wait for this season to start. I moved recently and to economize a little I only added Showtime to my cable package (I used to have HBO, Cinemax, and Starz as well) mostly for "The Tudors" and "Dexter". When I heard they were doing After Dark again, I was REALLY excited that I had Showtime.

^I recently posted that Showtime is giving $25 Visa cards if your a new subscriber after 3 months of usage. Like if you moved and signed up for it that would be a new account right? So you might be entitled to it. Just go to Showtimes site.

But yeah I cant wait to see it. I got my daughter hooked on it, I am a Chilltown nut and she loves Jase and Matty. We have been watching for a bit too.

They apparently changed the feeds alot too which is great!!! You can go to any day and time and watch its all archived. They cancelled House Calls too but on Real Player it says they are having a talk show.
