Rewatch Big Brother 2006 YouTube stream (26-28 Sep & 3-5 Oct)

Damn it's raining so hard here I can't hear the TV. Rainy season is crazy this year.
 
I remember I wasn't allowed to watch AO, but my neighbour used to watch it, I could just make out their TV, and I could hear ours from my room. That's when I saw "it"...
 
Thinking back, the first two weeks of this season are INSANE!

We have everything from Michael’s Insider antics (Ruben and the toothbrushes!), David coming out, Krystal/Karen twist, the fake eviction, the Revenge antics, Tilli thinking she’s becoming the alpha female only for her to get actually evicted (and Gretel’s hissy fit when there’s no name in the envelope to boot). All within the first 14 days!
 
The BB eye in the intro is much more glowy this year. It’s much harder to makeout that the pupil in the eye is in the shape of Australia.
 
The unbleeped live episodes are back! Some naughty words slipped through at the end of that last ep.
 
Huge shift in Gretel’s tone this season. She’s very cold and quite stern from the get-go. Even in this Insider special.

😞

Yeah it’s very noticeable and quite sad to see. I wonder if this was from behind the scenes changes or a slight disdain for the direction of the show or maybe just slowly getting over it but she really seems to lack the passion for the show.
 
Claire suggesting Michael and Elise are a couple…

I wonder why…
Surely the 2 asian housemates MUST be dating

I think she was cast for a show that ultimately didn’t exist anymore at this point in time. She was brought on to host a “social experiment”, not babysit the 14 horniest people they could find at the Showgrounds.

Yes so true, this makes sense. Gretel is is intelligent, she would have loved what the earlier seasons were about and recognised being above what it became.
