For those interested, Big Brother 3 is starting. Check out the inmates....I mean, house guests:

Most of them are in their 20's and 30's.

:lol:
That Tonya's pretty hot :D
Hmm... I love this show the first two times, mainly because you could watch it on the Internet 24 hours a day (although I hated when they cut away when people were saying something interesting.)

I see no mention this time of a live feed!

Guess its not "Big Brother" anymore.

Anyone know what the deal is?
There will be live feeds available. I have not yet seen any confirmation as to how many, but most assuredly, more than one. Presumably, 4 of them, just as last year.

It is still being streamed in the RealVideo format (unfortunately IMO).

To subscribe to the live feeds, either obtain the Real.com "RealOne SuperPass" for $9.95 a month (which includes BigBrother 3, CNN, etc - various streams) or wait for CBS.com to update its site to include an offering of a "BigBrother 3 Pass" which is ONLY for BB3 and nothing else, for $24.95 for the length of the entire show season.

I recommend http://www.bigbrotherlive3.com and http://www.televisionwithoutpity.com for those looking to get more BB3 info or discussion.

Edited to add:
I know it's annoying when the producers cut to the famous "FOTH" (front of the house) which is a method of providing you a live feed from the BB3 house, therefore giving you, to the letter of it, what you paid for, yet protecting privacy or crucial moments of "drama" that they want us to wait and see on TV. Largely, it appears BigBrother 1 wasn't affected by this - because nothing interesting happened :lol: (I watched it every day on TV, though.)

I watched tonight. I really didn't like anyone. All of the women seem like a bunch of b!tches and some of the guys were a bunch of jerks.
I agree Karl. Seems like a boring bunch. I guess time will tell if anything interesting develops.

It's going to be hard for anyone in BB3 to top the Evil Doctor from BB2. He was THE master manipulator and liar...really fun to watch him do his thing.
Although, Josh certainly seems to be trying very hard to be Evil Will 2...sheesh...
Josh makes Will look like he was a good kid. :)

I have been watching the live realvideo since last night.

Gerry Reminds me of Kent from BB2 and Marcellus reminds me of Bunky.
What's the deal with Josh lying about being a school teacher. That will come back to haunt him later, I believe. He's a friggin' waiter!

The hot one is Chiara.... Tonya is hot but damn 5 kids......
Been watching the live feeds. The veto has been done:

Gerry used his veto power on Marcellas and now Amy is up for eviction.
Gerry may have made a mistake by doing/not doing that (have to keep the spoiler intact)...

I tried watching the live feeds some over the weekend, but it kept timing out on my on my cable modem connection. I'd be able to watch for 5 or 10 minutes, then everything would freeze and real player would say "communicating 50%" or some other percentage, and then it would come back after another 10 mintutes or so...got annoying enough that I gave up.

I think Gerry did make a mistake. I can't elaborate anymore without giving it away so I guess we'll have to wait till Wednesday. :(

I haven't had any trouble with the feed at all. As a matter of fact it's some of the best streaming video I have ever seen. Must be very close to 30 FPS. I looks at least 25 FPS. With my cable modem I'm getting a 200K connection.
More spoilers but nothing earth shaking:

Today Josh got mad during a bathing suit competition and threw the basketball over the fence. Big Brother is still deciding whether or not they will get it back. Josh got the lowest score in the competition. Also, the winners of the luxury competition had a Hawaiian Luau in the back yard while the others stayed in the house.
Last night they kept reading their Big Brother Contracts (and it kept cutting away to the front of the house) It seems as though they are not happy about the Veto rule.

I say it makes for an interesting game.

I want Josh out so bad.

Too bad CBS won't show the Bikini contest unedited. :) (For those who missed it one of the lady guests was out there wearing nothing but a smile.)
I just installed realplayer here at work, and of course it works just fine. And of course, if I were to leave up streaming video at 248k all day long I'd be in big trouble with our network people...oh well...thinking my problems at home may be due to me wireless network, as opposed to my cable modem connection. Going to try a hard wired network connection tonight to see if anything changes.

Is there a way to show all 4 video feeds at once, and just pick which audio you want? That'd be the ideal way to watch this.
Scott, Who was naked during the contest?

Mark,

I tried to put up all for feeds but couldn't get it work. Please let me know if you do. I would suspect that they wouldn't allow it because it would take quite a toll on their bandwidth.
Does anyone have a good Big Brother site? I haven't been watching the feeds on the net over the past 2 days.

I watched the CBS show tonight and they had a local news break that said "Connecticut Big Brother 3 House Guest in legal trouble, will it cost him his space on the show? Find out tonight at 11"

Anyone know what this is about?
