BB In The Media: Outside the Fishbowl

That's no surprise and going to happen since the strikes are nowhere close to being over. Even if the strikes ended this month, they wouldn't have material ready to go until late February at minimum, as they basically need to start pre-production, which includes planning the new seasons and writing.

They're most definitely going to need reality shows to fill the gap, so I imagine it'll be less of a BB26 and more like a Big Brother Mini season (probably less time if they're bringing on celebrities).

So what a double standard BB has. We (rightfully) had a houseguest removed for using a racial slur. Now Jared uses a slur referencing those who are developmentally delayed and nothing happens. I guess TPTB don't want their surprise mother/son twist ruined but there should have been some consequence. I am from CT so I was pulling for Jared to win, but I've lost respect especially based on this.

Altho MSN is probably a reliable source, the article comes from Screen Rant.  I've noticed they like to speculate.  I went ahead and posted because it quoted unnamed "CBS Sources."  I agree that it is doubtful 15-16 of these people would want to spend 90 days in the house, given they have their money. 

There are a few fame whores, yes.

First of all, I hate this idea lol. But also, there really aren't even enough winners to accommodate the 50% BIPOC rule. I just don't see it happening.

This.  Half the cast have to meet the "diversity definitions" CBS has in place now.  Blacks, Hispanics, Native Americans, ethic background Asians, Indians and Middle Easterners etc. 

The way CBS reality shows were cast in the past -- only a token or two of these people each season -- it was pretty much impossible to have enough winners from this pool of the population at this point.

Now if they want a generic CBS reality shows "winners season" they would have to raid the winner pools from Survivor and The Amazing Race and it would still be hard to get the numbers or find winners from those shows that would want to "step down" into BB's house of endless weeks of boredom with little to do for days on end.

 Eh, it's CBS' rule.   If they really want a winners season they can make an exception.   Not arguing for or against but this isn't an FCC mandate; they can raise, lower or ignore the percentages.  Honestly, I think they'd have a hard time filling out a cast of winners period unless it's an abbreviated season along the lines of Celebrity BB.   I don't see them getting 16 of their winners back.   Maybe if they picked from winners and runner ups.

Cirie's was spot-on and Jared's was funny because it's so WTF, but the rest are pretty impersonal.  In the past few seasons it seems like whoever creates them doesn't really watch the show, they just go off the name or some short bio.  It's a damn crime that Hisam's doesn't have the word "Right" on it anywhere.

I know, Hisam's poster could have at least said: He doesn't know his left from his RIGHT? 

Still lame but at least relevant.

Is the Big Brother House moving to a new location and a brand new house? 

Even odds Codes shut them down for black mold; personally, I wouldn’t go into those bathrooms without several gallons of bleach and a Level A HAZMAT suit.

#TeamAnt will be fine; the commissary is just across the way.

I kind of figured that they wouldn't last.

So 2024 has been a tough year for the Renegades.  First, Dan does poorly on The Traitors, and now, Memphis and Christmas are divorcing.

As one of the very few who didn't worship the ground on which either of them walked in BB10, it gives me endless delight to see them suffering.

We are SO here on this!

Always loathed Memphis since his first BB run and the way he treated David on his second?  Nothing short of racist.

Never liked Christmas either.

Interesting that the premiere is only 1 hour with the next episode airing the next day. Haven't they been doing like 1 1/2 or 2 hour premieres and then no episode on Thursday the first week?

Sounds familiar, if for no other reason than fully an hour of the premiere was traditionally eaten up with the “let’s get to know the contestants” clips….
