I have the first two seasons on dvd, the ones that came with the little puffer jacket covers. I was so excited when it was on Prime, but I don't have Prime. Been thinking about getting it, but kept forgetting to check if it was the original music. Well, I just ordered the full series on dvd, and the reviews on Amazon claim it's all original music. We shall see, but even allowing for the overlap of what I already own, it's cheaper than Prime. Fingers crossed. Somewhere out there, there was a website that listed all the music, I need to find that again.

For the same reason they had Giuliani, Jenner, and Palin. The same reason DWTS had Tom DeLay, Sean Spicer, Kate Gosselin, and Bristol Palin. It gets people talking. Clicks, eyeballs, tweets, outrage posts all over the place. Attention.

Meghan McCain needed a stupid, contrived, overly intricate hairdo, in addition to mentioning her father every 30 seconds. And as much as I loved James Brown, and Little Richard, and the other male Snatch Game impersonations, I want that to be forbidden. Good to see Chad Michaels once more. But this whole episode seemed kind of off. Actually, this whole season has been off. Not as bad as some of the recent ones, but off nonetheless.

So Spectrum, which had gotten rid of AntennaTV ages ago where I watched Kotter, recently added Rewind, which has it! So Saturday night at 11:00 and Sunday morning at 11:00, I get to hang with the Sweathogs. I was irrationally happy about that.

Ah yes. Hoia Baciu, in Romania. That was actually extremely frightening. Though Zak Bagans made it seem OTT and somewhat funny, what happened to Evan of was legit scary.

I started this off skeptical, mostly watching because pickins are slim this time of year. But I ended up really enjoying it. No nasty meanness, no real misogyny, no racism, and (reasonably) fair comps, much better than in a normal season. I could even tolerate Frankie. But the best part is that in a show with the likes of Xavier, Cody, Cameron, and Josh (along with a surprisingly focused and competent Frankie,) the F2 were women. I'd have preferred to see Britney there, but maybe since this was a short incarnation and she seemed to have surprised herself with how she did, she'll come back if there's another one. And I won't say that about most of the BB people!

Just stumbled across this - the only one I'm interested in seeing is Johnny Weir. Possibly Macy Gray. Isn't Chet Hanks the troubled one of Tom's sons? I wish some channel would air the OG series (actually, if someone made a 24/7 VH1 Celebreality channel, I'd never turn it off.)

I did say just a bit! 😄 I mean, he's still annoying and OTT, and overall I'd prefer he wasn't on, but I'm not driven off like I would be with, say, Paul. Gotta root for Britney, of all those that are left.

This is all the way weird. I'm enjoying this, I love the challenges, and even Frankie isn't bothering me. Nor is Josh really. I think since Frankie got his wish of being a "celebrity" he's chilled out just a bit. And with this only being a couple of weeks, I will probably survive. They should do this every winter, with Celebrity BB in the spring, and normal in the summer. Is that too much?

Yeah, just like that was 100% Sebastian Bach, it's also 100% Macy Gray. I always like seeing the affable man-ho Bret Michaels, and I love all the Osbournes to pieces so seeing Kelly was fun, and I know she's recently had a ton of work done, but she looks great. Funniest part was Sebastian saying he'd partied with Robin's dad - someone needs to write an unauthorized bio of Alan Thicke!

As long as it's better than this one, I'll be okay. I peaced out of this nonsense about the time they started with the 10pm episodes on Sundays. Once or twice I watched one of the weekday ones, but never paid attention. I may watch the finale, just to see the Cirie/Jared reveal fizzle like everything else Grodner touches. This cast could have been well above average, but the stupid twists ruined it all.

If Tiki isn't Sebastian Bach, I will go buy a hat, and eat it. I have no idea who Tyler Posey is. I may have heard the name once or twice.

I've always thought David Lee Roth is more a DWTS type. He's still in excellent shape, and that would give him a chance to show off. Sebastian Bach will do any show he can get, so odds are good it's him. More like Billie Jean, please! Genuine legend, in a field other than entertainment, doing it just for fun, not to promote a show, book, movie, or album. I actually had no idea Philadelphia Freedom was written for her. How freakin' cool is that!

This is a genius idea for the makeover episode. This many seasons in, there aren't many "categories" left. Competitive Reality Show folks would be a good one. One year male, one year female, BB, TAR, and Survivor players to choose from.

Thanks - I don't think I've ever heard of him, nor did I recognize his face. Now I know I don't need to go back and watch it on demand.

Okay, I tried to watch, but kept falling asleep (covid booster fatigue.) I woke up 15 minutes into Snake Oil - who was Pickle? Not Howard Stern, I gather. Thanks!

I adore all the Osbournes, so I watched. What happened to Sharon was quite scary, but I'm glad she's okay. I've made my peace with Chip Coffey - I mean, he's on so many of these shows now I'd never be able to watch anything if that was a deal-breaker. I just try to revel in his ridiculousness. I actually felt the same way about Katrina Weidman at first, solely due to their association with Ryan Buell and Paranormal State.

I thought Howard Stern for Pickle as well, because lawd does that man get paid to talk, but I don't know enough biographical details to match clues. I also didn't think his speaking voice matched Howard's but it is a bit distorted. And I had no idea who Tom Sandoval is, but whatever. He was an appropriate boot for sure.

Ken will be doing the ESPN College Game Day Celebrity Pick tomorrow for the Duke/Notre Dame game. They've built a big stage and numerous smaller filming areas in front of Duke Chapel. And he was here a few weeks ago for the kickoff of Duke Arts opening weekend, hooked back up with Duke University Improv, and did some skits right outside where I work. I had no idea it was him, I just heard someone repeatedly shrieking that his spleen hurt, followed by laughter.

Jenny - it's BIO-pic, as in Biographical Picture, not bi-OP-ic. Please can we replace her? If Niecy Nash is busy, how about Sharon or Kelly Osbourne? Decent start, there doesn't seem to be an obvious front runner, the Swashbuckling S'More was pretty creative, and the stage gets more extravagant each season. I need more Nick Cannon jokes though.

While I understand that there are many people who don't like Ken (to me, he's like Will Farrell or Carrot Top - you love or you hate,) but I adore him. If we're getting rid of someone, I would suggest Jenny. And replace her with Niecy Nash. I'm "meh" on Rita Ora.

Oh I missed that! Good lord. Amy Allan is her name, and her incessant mugging drove me away. I liked Steve at first, but not anymore.

I mean, some of them are so stinkin' obvious. I have an old analog tv (30+ years old and still works fine) so if I can tell it's fake, even on my decidedly non-HiDef tv, how can they not? I do like that they've got the Ghost Brothers on as commentators now. Love those guys.

Disclaimer - I'm old and out of touch. But, while Demi Lovato is certainly talented, how is this the biggest unmasking ever? Other than that, it was fun I suppose. I have no idea what Jenny was wearing, but other than that...

I got the impression that Jared knew she'd be there, but I kind of wanted to see it play out where instead of pretending not to know each other, Jared walks in after the first comp and yells "Mom?! What the hell are you doing here?" and then tantrums that his mom being in the game will paint a huge target on him and destroy his game. Because it's Cirie, they'd totally buy that she would eat her child with a spork if it would get her to the end. That solves the problem of people knowing/figuring it out and trying to keep it on the downlow.
