Just starting to watch it!! Didn’t know it started today. Excited for hopefully some great game play. Need a good summer distraction. Our summer has started off very very soggy so been needing some good tv while we ride out these rainstorms.

Usually there is at least 1 player I am drawn to. This year...not a single one. So many seem full of themselves. I am rooting for the dude that was in the cat shirt and has 3 cats. Thr older man that is a bus driver and dj seems cool too.

Thr older man that is a bus driver and dj seems cool too. I agree. I was saying to my visiting friend, as we watched, why does it seem no one on this show ever have normal kind of jobs...like they don't work retail, in a restaurant or as a book-keeper or something like that...they are usually things like "I'm a professional surfer" or "I am a swimsuit model" or "I am a hypnotherapist" - I was glad to see the bus driver  He is the only older person this season though. It seems they just want a bunch of hot, young bods on the show for the most part...oh well.
I was actually contemplating not watching this season, but considering that I watch every summer and there really isn't anything else on mainstream broadcast TV this time of year, I figure, why not just watch |

I really liked the first episode! This cast is skewed toward the young hot bods, but nobody stood out as a real pain in the a$$. It looks like they've got some new ideas and twists planned.

I watched. Some random thoughts...
None of the players stood out as good or evil to me. Kinda like the guy who won HOH, but guess we will see how he handles it.
Was less than blown away with the "Festival". The scanning seemed fake. Once Julie read out the results before they appeared on the screen in the back yard. That "endurance" one didn't seem like it took very long. Kept remembering all the ones that took HOURS in the past, but I guess if they had to hold their whole weight with their hands...
They already have fan voting open to save one of the back stage people. We have barely even seen them, let alone have any info to know if they should be protected. Are they depending on the players' on line presence to be a big factor?
Don't know why they have only one old guy. Why wouldn't there be more, or none at all?

I was actually impressed with most of them. I loved that they were all 'older' in their 30’s and all seemed a bit more mature, even the younger ones didn't seem too annoying. Yes, a lot of the women were stunning, however, all seemed fairly mature for their age. And ALL of them are huge fans, no first-timers who haven't a clue how the show works. These guys have been keeping notes for years! That should make for good strategic competition.
I'll give them all a break for the silliness, first-time jitters and all that. Plus I'm sure production tells them to scream and yell, it makes for good tv.
I think once things settle down, this season will be good. I like Monte, he was in the first group. I like the attorney as well. Actually, I liked the men more than the women! Jasmine is my favorite female.
I'm in my 70's and crack myself up that I'm still obsessed with this show. 🙄

I thought the episode was boring - the comps were slow going and I missed seeing the introductions and getting acquainted. But I did like seeing the intro packages since not too much was available prior to the premier. I liked Daniel (HOH), Monte, Indy, & Nicole. To me it felt like the age of this cast skewed a little older but that could be my perception from seeing only minutes of airtime per houseguest (ha!). There are actually 2 people in their 40s...Nicole the former cop turned chef is 41. I don't like the sound of this backstage boss/pass thing and kind of hate that Pooch picked 3 women. The first two to drop in their comps made sense but the other one was a race so everyone who didn't win lost. Like always, I start out hopeful and optimistic. Let's see how this season goes.  |

The only person that kinda gave me a snooty vibe was the pageant girl. Can't remember her name and I'm not interested enough to look it up. LOL! She seemed kind pre-judging people (men) in the house that she said she has to show her power and let them know who's boss - I'm paraphrasing that big-time, but that's what I took from it. |

It also took FOREVER and seemed so LONG. I figured the endurance comp was one that wouldn't last long by design since they had to fit all of the comps in to get an HOH in the first episode. |

I'm in my 70's and crack myself up that I'm still obsessed with this show. 🙄 So, I have to tell you something so very interesting! My Mom's name was Linda. She would have been 70 next year! She was a HUGE BB fan! She also went by Linda Lou! She worked second shift and would call me on her lunch break every evening. If I was watching Big Brother, she would holler at me NOT to tell her anything because she was recording it to watch after she got home from work. Every year when BB starts, I think of her and how we both really love this show! :-) Your post made me smile. I'm glad everyone knows how the game works and the notebooks were just wild! I hate it when they cast a pretty/handsome game dummy just for hot bods! Glad they gave spots to the true fans! |

I guess Pooch learned his lesson about paying attention during the first episode by being put on the spot to make a choice! LOL! I thought his reasoning was great on the first two groups. Not sure how to pick on the third group where everyone lost. I guess maybe a quick game of rock paper scissors?! LOL! |

I think the pageant girl is Taylor. It seems like every time we saw her she had on that big fake smile! |

I’m watching for the first time ever. Mainly because I’m so disappointed that my tv package doesn’t include lifetime anymore, so no MAFS for me. There seems no way to watch it whatsoever. So, BB looked pretty interesting to me. I like a couple of the guys so far.

What days is the show on? I don't even know. Is there a show tonight?
If anyone has tictok, there are a few gals on there that do live updates, which are fun. They have spoilers of course.

I take back everything I said about this being a good cast and season. Won’t spoil anything, however, some of these women are total bitches. Some of the guys who I was initially impressed with are real jerks.
This is all from reading all the BB forums that are watching live feeds. I’ve watched for a quick minute but every time I watch, they’re all just laying around.
These people that form a two-person alliance and swear a final two are so silly. No way after a couple of days can you know someone well enough to be their ride or die.
I’ll keep watching, however, my hopes for a great season are slowly diminishing.

The H.O.H claims to be a super fan. He is either playing dumb or just not paying attention because how could a super fan not see that the 4 guys volunteering were to get on his good side.
I can not stand the pageant girl.
I also do not like the way a few of the girls talk about other women. Several of them need to grow up.
I am also not happy with cat dude who is on the block. For a super fan he isn't playing a good game.
No one is really.
This season is not great.

So, BB looked pretty interesting to me. I like a couple of the guys so far. Usually the first few BB episodes are not that great as you get to know some of the contestants but usually it gets more interesting. Time will tell this season! Have you tried downloading the Lifetime app? It may cost monthly but you could keep it long enough to watch MAFS and do you watch MAFS Australia? That season is about 1/2 over but it is on lifetime app as well. Also, check Hulu, they MAY have the current season, not sure - I know they have some older ones. |

He is the only older person this season though. It seems they just want a bunch of hot, young bods on the show for the most part...oh well.
