Kromm June 21, 2014 Share June 21, 2014 True story. I (unprovably) came up with the Chenbot nickname, under a different alias, years ago. Can't prove it though! Ah, my one shot at fame denied... Anyway, as much as I love the snark potential with her, and always have, it's still been my contention (especially since the debacle of last year) that BB really needed a reboot this year that INCLUDED a new host. Someone young and actually convincingly enthusiastic about the goings-on. Someone (dare I use the inherently lame term to describe it's own opposite)... "Hip". That said, since we are stuck with this Host For Life (or until Les Moonves leaves CBS Corp.) at the very least we can ramp up the sarcastic appreciation of what the Chenbot DOES bring. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/47963-julie-chen-its-cool-if-you-call-her-chenbot/#findComment-144896

methodwriter85 June 27, 2014 Share June 27, 2014 It's been funny to see her style evolution. First season, she was wearing cardigans and had very "Mom next door look."

I like that idea, as long as the cobra is commanded with a call of "weave tail attack!!" in a tone reminiscent of power rangers I loved her long, curled, fake ponytail last night. Why can't I find faux hair like that? It didn't look like super high quality hair to me, I think you could probably find something at a local wig and hair shop. Whenever I ask my stylist to put in a ponytail, I buy some brand called Zury hair, its like 30 bucks a pack and you can curl it with a curling iron. I actually think a lot of the stores now sell the ponytail with the drawstring. I don't say any of this to be condescending, but just in the event that you weren't being snarky, and actually wanted a ponytail. When I first wanted a ponytail I had no idea where to begin.

It's generally accepted that the only reason Julie has two shows on CBS is because she's married to the boss. For example, what if some of the head honchos at CBS (not Moonves, of course) feel even though she's done a good job on Big Brother, someone else could bring in bigger ratings as host? What if it's felt that someone else would be better suited on The Talk, or would be a better moderator than Julie? A change will never happen as long as Moonves is in charge.
