October 2nd, 2009 at 2:18 pm[...] After incredible ratings pushed Big Brother above and beyond previous years it should come as no surprise that CBS wants to see Big Brother 12 next summer. Now if they could just move it up to this winter! Apply now for Big Brother 12! [...]

Will Big Brother ever be made eligiable for Canadians… we’re HUGE fans too!!
September 18th, 2009 at 11:17 am
I am definitely applying. Hey, I was on Tool Academy, why shouldn’t I make it to BB??
September 18th, 2009 at 11:19 am
Why should based on the fact you were on tool academy?? haha.
September 18th, 2009 at 12:36 pm
Pat. YOu wanted the Survivor Site - it is SurvivorFanDom.com. Hey, all you guys, come on over.
September 18th, 2009 at 12:44 pm

I wondering if Big Brother has a policy on weight because I never seen an over weight person on the show I am definitely applying for the second time.
September 18th, 2009 at 3:25 pm
@ Jeanette, they absolutely do, which is sad.
September 18th, 2009 at 4:45 pm
@#6 Jeanette - they probably do, but if you have issues with your weight and are sensitive about it, BB house is the last place you want to be. They called Michelle crazy and she wasn’t, can you imagine what you’d have to deal with if they called you names? Not enough DR sessions in the world!
September 18th, 2009 at 6:13 pm
Umm, I think BB has had its fair share of tools already.
September 18th, 2009 at 6:49 pm
Sinful,
If in fact you WERE on Tool Academy, it would work AGAINST you. Tool Academy is devoted to casting douchebags with no brains…it’s one of those reality shows that no one cares about, NOR remembers
So many cocky people on here!
September 19th, 2009 at 12:17 pm
Kathy, I do not care about the name calling that is part of the game. There are come a back that is a poor excuse and it is reality that all people are not skinny. can you imagine fats vs. Skinny LOL .
Saying there not enough of DR is an insult .
September 19th, 2009 at 3:04 pm
Zanazoo, writing about your self because you on this website talking about people with no life and you notice Jordan in the bathtub. I guess your on your computer chair typing
September 19th, 2009 at 5:19 pm

THIS IS THE REAL ZONA ZOO! #12 is sinful disgused as me trying to make me look bad because i told him he was a douchebag for being on Tool Academy!
i never wrote that comment. anyone can post anything under any name.
September 20th, 2009 at 2:49 am
That show Tool Academy,is for people who need help or should I say Men that need help and if a person is lying cheat then I guess he would make it on BB because that is how Natalie won 50,000
September 21st, 2009 at 9:42 am
Fight nice, you cackling hens!
September 21st, 2009 at 12:41 pm
I think CBS should consider doing a spin-off reality show called “Showmance”. They could bring back all of our favorite reality couples and see which couple survives, at the end the couple to survive could win whatelse - cash!!
Also, after watching this season, I also think Jordan could be an activist for young girls who are struggling with the pressures of sex. Many times this season Jeff made moves, and many times Jordan resisted kindly. Of course i love the J&J combo, but I also love the message Jordan was sending to the girls across America…
September 21st, 2009 at 1:33 pm
No one has answered my question yet hahaha… will Big Brother ever be open to Canadians… we are big fans too!!
September 21st, 2009 at 1:47 pm
@Leighanne: Unfortunately for you, the U.S. version of Big Brother will not be open to non-U.S. residents. Your best hope is for a Canadian version to spring up for that opportunity.
September 21st, 2009 at 2:21 pm
Has anyone seen photos or video from the wrap party this past weekend?
September 21st, 2009 at 2:25 pm
I was at the party in Vegas. Friend of Libra and she graciously hooked me up with all access. Took photos with all of my favorites. No video, but there is on Youtube.
September 21st, 2009 at 6:43 pm
@Cindy #16
How about CBS doing a show called “Live From Hawaii” with Jeff and Jordan? Now that would be adorable! Live feeds for that would make a bundle.
September 23rd, 2009 at 12:29 am
were is a policy on weight Sinful,is your made up one ? Zonazoo, Zanazoo sitting on a computer chair worring about a miss spell names who does not watch Big Brother but writes on a Big Brother this feeds. I will ask Matt is their a policy on weight for the Big Brother Show please let me know? If not I want to try out I know they do not take people from Canada.
September 23rd, 2009 at 11:06 am
There is no stated policy on weight limits, but it is worth noting that most HGs are on the more “fit” side of the spectrum.
That is correct, Canadians are not eligible to apply.
September 23rd, 2009 at 1:59 pm
@ Jeanette, Obviously there aren’t any officially stated regulations regarding weight, because that is illegal. I wouldn’t be surprised if within the next few years a lawsuit isn’t brought up for discrimination, since it’s so obvious that weight is an issue on these shows (no one is ever overweight, with the exception of dance your a$$ off ;).
@ZonaZoo, if you can’t get along with others and insist on talking down to BB fans in this forum, then leave! We don’t want you here! How old are you, 12??
@Sinful, you sound like a complete tool! You must’ve fit in well!
September 23rd, 2009 at 2:40 pm
Kelly, I like your commit so I going to try out again and just see what happens I need support fans maybe if CBS sees that there is people out there who can support people who are not perfect then they will pick a person to on Big Brother “ZonaZoo, if you can’t get along with others and insist on talking down to BB fans in this forum, then leave! We don’t want you here! How old are you, 12??” I agree with this statment took my words out of my mouth LOL
September 23rd, 2009 at 4:20 pm
@ Jeannette, good luck in whatever you choose. You have my vote
September 23rd, 2009 at 4:59 pm
Kelly, Thanks so when you see my name or I need a America vote I count on one
September 24th, 2009 at 3:50 pm
Jeannette -
It says here that you have to be in excellent mental and physical condition. Oh well…i say lose as much weight as possible. That’s what I’m going to do as soon as I stop nursing my son.

Wow, are you being for real zonozoo? Can’t we all just get along
September 25th, 2009 at 8:41 pm
Com join the fun at SurvivorFanDot.com. Lots of fun and help. We would love to have ya.
September 27th, 2009 at 10:28 pm
Like the 75 old man (Jerry on 10) who had heart surgery Bi pass or the others who were in shape who had had hypoglycemia Amanda 9 who had to be taken away on the show with the ambulance there was a young mother who just had a baby on the show. There are a lot people who might look fit and can have a physical, mental condition
September 30th, 2009 at 11:39 pm
Jordan play the game and if Jeff made mistakes it was he fault it was not Jeff she still won so it does not matter how she did it she won fair and maybe people you did watch the show because others did the same thing when other became HOH. Cap need to go
October 2nd, 2009 at 10:14 am
I think part of the reason that Jeff/Jordan are so popular is the same concept as George Burns and Gracie.
October 4th, 2009 at 9:01 pm
What is the minimum age requirement to apply for big brother?
October 5th, 2009 at 8:20 am
@Shelby: You can find all those details right here with the eligibility requirements.

Hello Big Brother fans! I too am a fan and I have launched a campaign website to be the next America’s Player. I am looking for your support! Please sign my petition and pass this on to all of your friends and ask them to sign and do the same. http://www.bponbb.com
Thanks! ~Billy P.
October 15th, 2009 at 1:27 am
im not a citizen, but have lived in the US for almost 10 years. i have a greencard; im a permanent resident.
am i eligible to participate?
October 15th, 2009 at 11:21 am
@Billy: The key to Eric’s success as America’s Player was secrecy. Your cover is blown if you’re letting everyone know you’d be AP if you were in the house. Heck, I’d want you to be the first one out if I was a HG next season and knew you were AP.
@kat: Good question.
I think you would be, but I’m not involved in the process. Worth a try though.Updated: The requirements say you must be a U.S. citizen.October 15th, 2009 at 11:24 am
Kat - the rules state you have to be a U.S. citizen.
October 15th, 2009 at 11:39 am
@Matt I totally understand what you are saying, that is why it is an interesting twist (IMO)… Would you watch to see if I was voted off first? Would you watch to see if I could beat the odds? This is merely a different way to approach the whole game. Being America’s Player is term, and it may not work like it did for Eric. It’s possible it is merely a title in the sense that America picked me to be in the house.
October 15th, 2009 at 8:42 pm
I know. I read the rules, but they don’t seem to be formulated very well. Usually when they say a citizen, they also then indicate permanent resident too. But I guess not.
Damnit! This ruins all because I would have won.
October 16th, 2009 at 10:21 am
@Gina: I stand corrected. You’re definitely right on the citizenship. Sorry, Kat.
@Billy: Oh I’m going to be watching either way. Yours is certainly an interesting idea and I wish you the best of luck with it.
October 20th, 2009 at 9:49 pm
I reeeeally want to apply for Big Brother!! The only problem is, I’m Canadian and we are not able to apply. Please please please change this rule!! We Canadians are a BLAST!! I think we would rock it. :):) Say you’ll think about it??
October 21st, 2009 at 2:27 pm
I find it hard to believe that 20,000 white people apply and only 5 non whites The show consist mostly of white maybe 1 black 1 asian 1 mexican Whats up with that
October 21st, 2009 at 3:04 pm
I think they are looking for quality people. Last season they had three African-Americans (two of them were half - Kevin & Natalie). Kevin was half Japanese. Natalie was half Latina. Russell was Lebanese. Chima wasn’t very “quality” but maybe BB needed to up their African-American quota. Jeff, Jordan, even Michelle and Ronnie were all decent quality.
What’s your opinion?
October 21st, 2009 at 9:28 pm
@gina #28
I quote your phrase
It says here that you have to be in excellent MENTAL and PHYSICAL condition.
But if you need to be EXCELLENT MENTAL condition how the f*** did they let Chima on. LOL!!!
October 22nd, 2009 at 11:32 am
Joseph - I’m with you man! lol
October 23rd, 2009 at 2:02 am
I had the idea of getting as many names on a petition as possible a few years ago but it didn’t give me an advantage. James from bb 6 (?) even told me that the producers would frown upon that. You just have to be a character. A lot of us want to play the game but are we colorful enough to make good tv? I am quite the character but I’m not loose enough or comfortable enough at the audition to be myself. I’m going to drink a shot or two before I go on next time!
October 25th, 2009 at 2:00 pm
Has anyone ever been on the show who was previously diagnosed with a minor mental disorder. I have very minor bi-polar, but I am a very stable person. I do take low doses of meds. I am wondering if my diagonis would prevent me from being on the show. I know for a fact I am more stable than some of the past particpants.
October 27th, 2009 at 5:42 pm
Jordan had a bit part on The Bold and the Beautiful today!
November 2nd, 2009 at 9:41 pm
Are you going to start a Big Brother Canada seriously i love this show we need a Canadian one so i can apply for it lol! Or you could just allow canadians to apply for your show that wud be awesome!
November 5th, 2009 at 10:23 am
Is there an age limit? I’m a retired vet in good shape. 66 years old and still kicking young lad’s a**es! My granddaughter got me so interested in this show. I guess trying out would be worth a shot.
November 5th, 2009 at 2:11 pm
@Danielle: It is odd how they exclude our neighbors to the north, but I haven’t heard of plans to change that req.
@Joe Sr.: No age limit that I know of. Jerry, from Big Brother 10, was 75 years old when he was on the show. Looks like you’re still within consideration.
November 22nd, 2009 at 10:14 pm
Matt, will you promise not to be so biased next year as you were this season? I mean, seriously, this place could be mistaken for Jeff and Jordan’s wedding with all the Jordeff love fest that went on here.
I’m just saying, as a blogger, try to be more impartial.
November 23rd, 2009 at 11:01 am
@Andrew: I certainly can not promise that at all. I write for this site as a fan of Big Brother, not as an impartial journalist (your comment of ‘blogger=impartial’ made me chuckle as bloggers are notoriously opinionated). Just as any other fan of the show has his or her favorites and ‘villains’ so will I and that’s part of the show’s fun.
I openly welcome discussion and debate on the players and their progress through the season but to imply that I have some sort of obligation to remain neutral throughout is unrealistic. I’m not the Chenbot after all!
November 24th, 2009 at 12:42 am
I guess.
