Big Brother 17

they are not offering live feeds to Canada this year.. fuckin bullsht

Seriously, they have offered the live feeds to Canada for 14 years and now suddenly they can't.

I don't think I will watch this year if I can't watch the live feeds.. it the whole reason I watch the show.. and like one of the reason I don't get super into BBCAN cause you can't flashback or anything on the live feeds...

What?! That's crazy!

I don't understand why, I am going to send in a complaint in hope enough people get outraged and they offer it.. I don't care if I still have to pay full price while the US gets a discount. I just don't get how they can offer it for so many years and then just not.

And Global, which is the station here that will air BBUS 17 has said they are unable to get the rights to stream the live feeds..

Use Google Chrome as your browser, download Hola, tell them you are in America, it's what I have to do to watch BB Canada. I just ordered my feeds this weekend.

Okay I will try, I am thinking it might not work cause you can't just have a CBS account you have to have CBS all access pass which I think you have to connect with your cable provider no?

I don't think so, you should be able to just purchase the feeds

kk Ill try that tonight

I did notice you had to put an address in when purchasing, so I could be wrong, hopefully not, that would be stupid not to let you guys buy the feeds, then again, I think it is stupid we can't watch BBCanada on US TV, so who knows.

hrmm.. I am reading in some places that people tried using Hola and it didn't work...

My credit card will link me back to Canada...

I know this happened a few years back and because of the backlash they changed it, but Big Brother Network said CBS has said that will absolutely not happen

Yea people are saying you can't even pay with a non US credit card... fuck!

I don't think I will be watching this year...

That sucks, You are my BB watch buddy

I will watch the show, the feeds are just usually what keeps me into it, especially knowing how edited the show is compared to what is really happening.

I found a few sources claiming they will have the live stream for Canadians so hopefully it workout, lol you might just have to post a lot more so I can keep up with what is happening cause I won't be able to be on jokers update all day while I am at work

Kinda frustrating that they would do this without any warning, I hope this isn't happening because we have our own BB now...

Surely not, they still show the US version in Canada, why not make money and show the feeds too, it doesn't make any sense to me

Yeah. I'm pretty terrible at staying current.
We need you, Des!

if the people are interesting enough I am sure I will keep up, it'll prolly be hard not too.. they have seem so secretive about this season, the anticipation is killing me lol

Ugh this stupid live chat thing on the feeds is the reason, I assume, they have not announced any cast members yet..

They usually announce that about a week before the show starts, it showed up on my DVR schedule a few days ago, we are still about 2 weeks out.

oh really? okay lol I couldn't remember it just feels like we should no more about this season already lol

Are you going to be watching the special interviews on the live feeds?

Maybe, I depends on what I have going on, I generally don't watch the pre game interviews, they usually are nothing like they way they portray themselves in them.

What do you think of the new houseguestsw, something seems different about this cast, they seem a lot more blow joe not recruited. Although I have a suspicion that the poker player woman is a mole or something... she rich and well known

They seem ok, we will know next week, I don't like the idea of a different twist every week, too many twists are bad and unfair. Here's a twist, why not just play BB without any twists?

lol so they are pretty much doing what Canada did

What do you think about Audrey?

I don't think it is a big deal, I just wonder if she will tell everyone off the bat or keep it a secret.

I don't think its a big deal either, but it will be the highlight of the show.. not sure if you watched the interview, but Julie Chen announced it on the Talk because it had gotten leaked, but was suppose to be announced on the premiere. The audience went crazy and one of the other host made a comment to Audrey saying "When you win let's go shopping bitch" In the interview with Audrey she said she was going into this house to be a hero... so I am sure she is not going to keep it a secret

I think she stands a better chance if she keeps it secret, if she tells people she will be one of the first 4 out I think

I think so too, especially if too much attention is put on her. I imagine if she does tell the first few days will be people asking a bunch of questions about it

If people think she is there for a platform to push her agenda, she won't last long, they will see her like Frankie from last season.

BB is the wrong platform to use to promote and push that sort of stuff

Yea, you should leave your outside life behind when you enter the house, don't let things like morals and integrity hold you back in the game, it's a game of deception, so be deceptive.

Does anyone object to me just posting things as they happen, or do you want spoiler tabs?

post please! I'll need it!

Lol, no problem. I'm looking forward to tonight

BOO, Battle of the Block is back

The twin twist is back, that's cool, they haven't used it since season 5.

Battle of the block is a fan favorite? I never heard anyone liking it!

That's what I said, who the hell liked that! It may be bearable with the twist a week, it may force people to play rather than half the house gang up on a few and nominate the same people over and over.

Who do you like so far?

Too early to tell, I want to see the rest. The wrestler guy is pretty cool, but that could change

ooo whose the twin? I was in bed all night sick did not watch it yet

They haven't showed us yet, they only brought in half the house, the rest come in tonight, feeds start tonight after the west coast show.

Kk

I just really hated the battle of the block last season. I hope the new twist every week thing makes it better. I just wish they'd play regular ol' big brother...with the twin twist, I do like that.

Yeah, not a fan of BOTB

I won't watch the live feeds but I'll watch some of after dark when I'm up late. lol.
I don't care about the Amazing Race people, I haven't watched that show in a long time.
I like the dentist and the super nerdy awkward guy.
I cannot, at this point, stand the guy with the hat. I just keep calling him hat.

do you mean Austin, the guy with all the hair and the top hat?

yea he has the hat, I just call him wrestler dude. I don't like the Amazing Race people either, with the twin twist there could be 17 HG's this season, so probably no one getting voted back in.
