Seasonal Parallels with Big Brother USA: Cases in Comparison and Contrast

[Supay]

Would it be fair to say that Puck from San Francisco was the original Dr. Will?

 

Is it not true that the Bostonian triad of Kameelah, Genesis, and Jason plus their fourth-wheel Elka set the stage for the non-couple trio that was Danielle (Reyes), Amy, and Jason with reformed ex-enemy Lisa on the side? 

 

And did the unique trashiness of the original Las Vegas roommates forecast the debauchery of North America's sole attempt at a wintertime BB (that is, until the folks in the Great White North got their own version) nearly six years in advance? 

 

MTV's pioneer in RTV certainly replicated itself by the time that the concept of a show starring cohabiting strangers crossed over from Europe to CBS. 

 

Which other analogous connections exist between these RW and BB?
