An interesting bit about the HOH room Posted:
07/03/2007 04:48 PM | Posted by Matt
WeLoveBigBrother.com has discovered some interesting information about this
year's Head of Household bedroom.
According to this exclusive video only on WLBB, on premiere night the HOH
room will not serve as the HOH room.
"I definitely can't show you anything right now, cause it looks
nothing like the HOH room," Julie said in the video. "And that's because on
premiere night, it doesn't serve that purpose. Why? You'll have to tune in
to find out."
Could this mean it's being used for a competition or yet another twist
to the game?

Allison Grodner talks about BB8 and rumors Posted: 07/02/2007
09:30 PM | Posted by Matt
WeLoveBigBrother.com spoke with Big Brother 8 executive
producer Allison Grodner Monday about the new season
of houseguests and fun.
Like many Big Brother fanatics, Grodner eats, sleeps and even dreams about
the show.
"This is the time where they start invading all my dreams," Grodner
joked.
Grodner also took some time to explain and clarify this year's twists.
She said many of the houseguests will walk into the house Thursday to find
someone they are not fond of, whether it be an enemy, a rival or someone
they have unfinished business. However she did say that not everyone in
the house will have this happen to them.
Grodner also talked about the "America's Player" twist. She said
this individual has already been selected by the show's producers.
"We chose someone who we felt could pull this off," she
explained. "This is a daunting challenge because it's a secret to the
rest of the houseguests and yet this person will have to balance their own
sort of strategy and stay in the house as long as they can while possibly
making some erratic moves that the viewers have him or her make."
She added, just like last year's coup de-tat, we can expect more twists to
come down the road.
Grodner also addressed the latest internet rumors swirling about a female
houseguest named Samantha. Samantha was seen on TV Guide during an
interview with this year's cast, leaving some to believe she was the 15th
houseguest.
"We always have alternates each year," Grodner said. "So
it's something where there's always an extra person and since we don't
know till just before the move in to the big brother house exactly if the
alternate will make it in or not, sometimes they put the alternate out
there and release the alternate to the press."

Thanks to Allison Grodner for the interview.
More BB8 house pictures released

CBS released more pictures of the new house Thursday
evening.
Included in this round of pictures, the gym, the big bedroom and other
rooms from different angles.
Dick wrote on his MySpace account that he has not been a great dad.
"My daughter hasn't spoken to me for about a quarter of her life,"
he wrote. "Part her fault, part mine... but, yes... I am the adult, well now we both
are, but point is made. We have, or she has always had a love hate
relationship with me. I think she gets me, but she doesn't. Is that her
fault? I am ****** up, how is she supposed to get that? How is she
supposed to understand that? She has been an adolescent teenage girl, she
is now 20, how am I supposed to get that?"
It was also discovered that Dick commented on Daniele's MySpace account,
writing "I miss my dog and hate your Grandparents too............."
Below is also a picture of Dick and his daughter. Is this Daniele?
Among them, seven women and seven men all in the running for a half
million dollar prize.
When the houseguests enter the Alice in Wonderland themed walls of the Big
Brother house, they will find they are going to be spending the summer
with their "worst enemy."

or something more personal, such as flirting with another player,"
the article said.
THE HOUSEGUESTS The cast consists of 14 houseguests, seven men and seven women. Half
are under the age of 25 and one is under 21. Each houseguest will enter
the house and learn they will be staying with their "worst
enemy."

A new commercial ran on CBS Wednesday night
that confirmed the number of houseguests and gave a hint about this year's
twist.
The commercial said there would be 14 houseguests, both contestants and
their "worst enemies."
Rumors quickly swirled the internet, with one user, CornerOffice8
from
RealityBBQ.com,
saying this is not the only twist. This user
correctly gave a description of this year's house before it was released
to the general public.
The user went on to write, "You
ever wonder what it would be like if you could tell a House Guest what to
do?"

BB casting director speaks with WLBB Posted: 06/26/2007
06:04 PM | Posted by Matt
Big Brother 8 casting director Robin Kass
spoke with WLBB Tuesday and cleared up some pre-season rumors and
speculation.
While she was limited in what she could answer, she did her
best to address all of our questions.
Kass said first, while she does not know exactly what day Big Brother 8
information will be released to the public, she did confirm it would be
sometime this week.
"It should happen within the next few days I'm guessing," she
said. "But I couldn't tell you at this moment exactly the day and
time it's going to happen."
She also addressed the rumored cast list that hit the web Saturday saying
that it was completely false.
"The list that I saw, there was no one on the cast in that list and I
didn't recognize any of the names on there," she said. "So I
hadn't interviewed any of those people and as far as I'm concerned it was
100 percent false from beginning to end."
To listen to the entire interview, click our WLBB VIDEO ON DEMAND player
above.
Big Brother 8 information released tomorrow? Posted: 06/26/2007
03:12 PM | Posted by Matt
According the latest speculation, Big
Brother 8 information will be released to the public Wednesday.
Check back later tonight for an exclusive audio interview with Robyn Kass,
casting director for Big Brother, who will clear up some rumors and
speculation about this season.
WLBB is working for you around the clock as all the information is
released to the public and we will bring it to you as soon as we receive
it.
"I find the internet very amusing," Kass said. "No one on our
cast is listed here and I never even interviewed any of these people. [It is]
completely made up, but interesting!"
Stay with WLBB for all the latest developments on the new season's cast.

No Marcellas on House Calls Posted: 06/15/2007
12:56 PM | Posted by Matt Marcellas has announced that he will not be a
host on House Calls, CBS.com's BB talkshow, this year.
Due to budget cuts @ CBS Interactive, a format
change & my increasingly busy TV and fashion career, I will not be
returning as host of House Calls. House Calls was created 4 years ago with
me in mind. It is a show that I am tremendously proud to have been a part
of. I not only hosted it but helped to produce it. As a part of the Big
Brother, family I am honored to have worked on it and have been so closely
identified with it. On a more personal note House Calls gave me something
amazing, a friend, the brilliant and talented Gretchen Massey... MarcellasReynolds.com

Big Brother will soon make after-hours
"Showtime" Posted: 06/11/2007
06:28 AM | Posted by Matt First it was Housecalls
and now CBS is introducing Big Brother: After Dark.
Variety.com is reporting that Showtime will be featuring
unedited Big Brother live feeds during the late night hours of the
channel's programming.
The CBS summer staple is expanding in a big way for its eighth season,
with the Eye planning to launch a spinoff series on one of its cable nets.
"Big Brother: After Dark" will feature a live, unedited feed from the "Big
Brother" house. Skein will run three hours nightly from midnight until 3
a.m. ET/PT on ShoToo, Showtime's widely available companion net.
Big Brother 8 television schedule is revealed Posted: 06/08/2007
10:19
PM | Posted by Matt TheFutonCritic.com is reporting the new schedule
for the BB8 season. While we consider this
website to be legitimate, we have yet to 100% confirm these dates and
times.
"LOS
ANGELES (thefutoncritic.com) -- CBS has confirmed its rollout schedule for
"Big Brother" while newcomer "Pirate Master" is being sent to Tuesday
nights.
"Brother" will
launch its eighth season on Thursday, July 5 at 8:00/7:00c with its Sunday
and Tuesday editions due on July 8 at 8:00/7:00c and July 10 at
9:00/8:00c, respectively.
Said installments mirror its broadcast
schedule from last summer, save for Tuesday nights where it aired at
8:00/7:00c instead of 9:00/8:00c.
As for "Pirate Master," the show's
sixth episode will follow "Big Brother" at 9:00/8:00c on July 5 before it
settles into its new Tuesday, 10:00/9:00c home on July 10."
''Then it wouldn't be Big Brother,'' says Grodner. Expect the return of
Julie Chen, the golden veto, twists like last year's sleep-deprivation
graveyard, and more of that disgusting, lumpy gruel."

BB8 commercial
fuels new season speculation Posted: 05/27/2007 05:11
PM
| Posted by Matt
CBS
is airing a new promotional commercial for BB8. While it did not give any
specific details about the new season, many fans are analyzing the spot
frame-by-frame hoping to pick up on some clues.
One quick sequence showed the houseguest picture wall with only 12 spaces.
Will this year's house only have 12 houseguests? As you remember, last
year's all-star house had 14 contestants.
Also, the commercial was filled with flamingos. Could this mean something
or is it just part of the tropical "feel?"
