Virtual Big Brother Unveiled - Virtual Me
April 16th 2007 | Gaming
Big Brother maker Endemol is to launch a virtual world where people can take part in familiar games and shows.
Three dimensional worlds such as Second Life, which allow people to create online versions of themselves, have built up a large following. Virtual Me will allow these avatars to compete in online versions of Deal or No Deal, Fame Academy and Big Brother.
Endemol and computer game company Electronic Arts said the site would be launched "in the coming months".
I've noticed that most of the blogs are insulting ppl; classy or trashy :S , or they are disturbing and gross like the one about boobs :| The F word is common and taking trash about ppl is common and I dont get the point. I mean even the ppl who play the game for the most part say whats in the game stays in the game but not on here its like a trash fest in blogs. Bad mouthing ppl and what not. I'm sure a lot of ppl will neg this but its just my opinion you don't have to agree. I just think its crappy to talk about ppl site wide or talk about nasty subjects. I'm a prude and I know that but oh well. That's life I guess.
Yes, summer's guilty pleasure voyeur television is just around the corner! CBS has announced that Big Brother 11 will premiere on Thursday, July 9 at 8 PM ET/PT. In addition to the Thursday night show, BB11 will also air at 8 PM ET/PT on Sundays and 9 PM ET/PT on Tuesdays. Phew ... no Wednesday show this season. That never worked out last season -- rush, rush, rush, then bored hamsters for four days.
The casting for the show is in its final stages according to Kasting Inc.'s recent twitter. The finalists have been notified and the process should be finished within a few weeks. Of course, once news on the new hamsters is known, we'll let you know right here on TV Squad.
A pregnant ChenBot (Julie Chen for the masses), will once again be hosting the show despite rumors from the NY Post that she would be taking a maternity leave. Julie announced on The Early Show that she will indeed be around for the season. This should add an interesting element in commenting on her fashions. I'm not sure my mind can wrap around what we might see her wearing as the season goes on. She's due in October.
As always, TV Squad will be your home for daily live feed reports from inside the house of fools highly intelligent, witty, clever, and attractive hamsters reality show contestants. Yeah, that's it!
Dick_bigbrother8_240 "Big Brother 11" just got a little more annoying this summer. Dick and Janelle are back to do a weekly podcast and he said/she said weekly blog post.
I hate "Evil" Dick. I don't think he's a funny persona, I think he is an enormous jerk with anger issues who likes to throw adolescent tantrums and can't deal with the fact that he's not 25 years old anymore. On his season of "Big Brother," he kept up the persona most of the time, but every once in awhile the mask would slip and we'd see just how disturbed he really was.
As for Janelle... I want to throttle her with her "Baby make it nice" t-shirt.
Anyway, the two have teamed up for coverage of the show this summer. Dick told BBDish:
I will be doing my weekly webcast for Real Player again this year. RealPlayer Superpass has given me my own tab in their browser, which will closely link my website and my myspace, etc... They have been great to work with, and our relationship is solid.
I have some fun guests lined up, and we will be out on locations more this season. We will also have more past houseguests ... The viewers were out in huge numbers for the show last year, and I don't see any reason why that would change.
I will also be doing a weekly webcast with Janelle to fill the void left by the Cancellation of Housecalls. It will be a call in show that will talk about the feeds and anything and everything else going on in the house and being talked about on the internet. I will be in studio while Janelle will be in NYC, but will be as good as sitting next to me co-hosting the show (well, as good as for you people, but I am getting jipped [sic].) We will also be doing a "He said, She said" type blog or column
I was just wonder how many ppl have had this problem or know ppl who do. I'm not but I do have a problem with eating and it started out with me just wanting to loose 20 lbs. I go to the gym religiously and i only eat a sandwich for lunch and one for dinner that all i crave and my stomach cant take much more than that :( I get full really quick. I make dinner for my husband and my kids and then i feed the baby and that's it. I don't eat. I don't want and the look of disgusts me. :'( I still haven't lost a lbs and my plan wasn't to do anything unhealthy to loose weight. Well i guess that's it :|
Why is it that every time i post a blog i get negged? Its really irritating and if your gonna do it be man or woman enough to comment :S I don't post anything that is negative towards any person. Give it a break.
