Big Brother 17: Production Speaks

by Lisa Marie Bowman on September 8, 2015

Hi everyone!

Check out this quote from an interview with Les Moonves, president of CBS and husband of Big Brother host Julie Chen.  (The full interview can be found here: http://www.vulture.com/2015/09/leslie-moonves-on-20-years-at-cbs.html#)

Vulture: And yet you’re still involved on a micro level with a lot of decisions. I’ve heard you still play a role in signing off on the cast for Big Brother 

Moonves: By the way, this wasn’t a great year for casting on Big Brother.

Vulture: Early on, the cast seemed pretty promising!

Moonves: I agree. Usually you have one or two disappointments. I think we had five or six disappointments.

So, if nothing else, it looks like Julie’s husband agrees with us about this season’s cast!  What I find especially interesting is that the interview was not about Big Brother.  The interviewer did not say a word against the cast.  Instead, he was just citing the Big Brother casting process an example of Moonves’s administrative style.  And, almost out of no where, Moonves cuts the interviewer off and says, “By the way, this wasn’t a great year for casting on Big Brother.”

Which, to me, indicates that this season is really bothering him.  Does that mean that there could be a shakeup as far as Big Brother’s production staff is concerned?  Maybe, maybe not.  But it’s fun to speculate and, if I was involved in casting this season, I would be a little worried right now.

It’s also interesting that Moonves said there were five or six disappointments, considering that there are currently only six people left in the house.

As for what’s going on in the house right now, it’s pretty much more of the same.  Liz and Julia are on the block for eviction.  When last I checked, it looked like Liz was still Steve’s target but that could change, depending on what Vanessa tells Steve to do.  For the most part, Vanessa, Steve, and John mostly just seem to be happy about the prospect of getting rid of at least one twin.  They don’t seem particularly concerned about which twin.

Liz and Julia have been doing a lot of sobbing lately but, when you consider the way that they talked about everyone else who was ever nominated, it’s hard to have much sympathy for either of them.  And the show’s editors seem to have finally turned against both the twins and Austin.  After spending weeks playing up the Austin and Liz showmance, the Big Brother producers appear to have finally realized just how universally disliked Austin and the twins are.  Hence, on Sunday’s show, we got to Liz and Julia insisting that Sigmund Freud was a lion tamer from Las Vegas.  And we also got to hear them talking about how Austin is a terrible kisser.

One final note: Last night, Austin assured Liz that she would win America’s Favorite Player.  “I know this show,” Austin told her.

Sure, Austin.

if she win American favorite, first I want to know Which America, not these United States. Why is Austin thinking like this is someone telling him this? Jame should win American Favorite player I think, and the boot needs to start ASAP for thw twin and Austin, but I am still out of this show. I will read Lisa Blog and only Lisa. This show had been unbelieveable and that good way to say anything about BB17. I will be glad when it off and I hope that know one ask the twin or Austin on there show for interviews, PLEASE LORD

I think that they should go back to letting the fans nominate who should be up for eviction because the houseguests all seem to be so stupid that they can’t see the light for the trees

Good write up, Lisa. I had heard that Julie’s husband, president of CBS, was involved with
the casting. I believe it was last season when that came up. I certainly hope his discontent
with the way this year went means a shake up in production staff. A. Grodner needs to be
the first to go. Even if they had proven to be great players, which they didn’t, I believe
there would have still been a problem with the likability of the cast. So many were just
not likable. You expect to have a couple each season that will become the villains of the
season. This year went on overload. It was difficult to find someone to really like.

Thank you Lisa. Very interesting. I will check out the interview. I’m glad someone got through to CBS just how bad this season really is.
@Rose, good to see you here! This is really the best BB Blog as far as I am concerned . I hope you will stay with us until the end! 🙂 Another view is always welcome here! I agree with you 100%. I have a hard time even looking at Austin and the twins … even though I am a twin myself! They don’t treat each other like any twins I have ever seen!
Last year they had an after party out in the backyard where they I interviewed several houseguests. Unless there is a happy ending this season, I will not be going to that party!! Gotta go … see you all
Later! 😎

Joanne September 8, 2015 at 3:36 pm

I happen to think this was a great cast this year. It was less snarky all around. A handful of decent players. The usual group of sleepers. Glad they went early. And the mastermind Vanessa, playing 24/7. Love her or hate her. She has played the best game. Hate the game, not the player. Les should look into changing up a lot of things about BB. No more BOB. New games, harder games. Less acting in the diary room. I know it makes good TV. But lets face it, JMack is a total bore in the house. Great TV edit in diary. All in all, this is a great season for feeds. Now that we are down to the nitty gritty, of course it slows quite a bit

Thanks Lisa! And thanks for all your comments A page back when I was a little heated! I may have not said so much this season Star, but last season I was told In a E-Mail not to comment about thinks I read on Jokers & the grape vine saying that I was just cutting & pasting things! That was not the case & it got me pissed off, I have Dragon Dictate & can talk & it will type for me, Not using it this year! No big deal I did not have that much to say this season that others already have said for me 🙂 Hope you all are doing well, have a great night! …………………………. :mrgreen:

Yes, it is good to know that “the boss” Les sees what a hot mess this year was! I was not going to watch this week unless Austin & one of the twins remained on the block. I hope it’s Liz that goes and that Johnny Mac wins HOH and puts up Austin & the remaing twin. I really hope JMac can pull out the win at the end of the game. I didn’t care for Steve too much but the last two weeks he has started to grow on me although he still has some strange ways.

Austin is indeed going to get a real shock when he finds out what America really thinks about him and the twins. I also hope James wins America’s favorite player.

I wamted to laugh when Liz ran out of the room crying after she was nominated! Really? After the way she has behaved when others were nominated. What goes around comes around!

Lisa Marie, you do a really great job with the blog!

Hope those that have been feeling bad will better feel better soon. I know firsthand about allergies and sinus issues.

Have a good evening everyone!

Thanks a lot Lisa.

Just curious how Austin “know” this show? Since he obviously doesn’t know how to play it. Doesn’t he realize that schmoozing her with lies will bite him in the butt someday? Herbie, I loved your comparison.

I am just hoping that with the comments, it will follow through with a change in house guests next year and the next and the next. Oh and how about some challenges worth watching. They need to bring back the luxury comps too. Everything just seems kind of dumbed down. Even when individual people knew about Liz and Julia, they were still allowed to play until they could both play. I thought if they were found out that they were done. Almost everyone or everyone knew that they were twins but they still got to stay.

Very confusing.

Audrey September 8, 2015 at 5:06 pm

This season is the worst season in Big Brother history. Everyone from the other side has been evicted because they did not win any competitions. Jason became HOH because a houseguest gave him the HOH week one. Jackie won HOH and the houseguests she nominated for eviction won the battle of the block which caused her to lose. James won HOH twice and two POV’s. The second time he won HOH, he put Clay and Shelli up for eviction. Everyone else has not won anything which is why everyone is gone whether they are out of the game completely or in the jury.

Mike R September 8, 2015 at 5:06 pm

In the 17 seasons of BB I have never hated a group of players more than the Austwins and Vanessa. Crying, whining and Judas. My faves were Audrey (until the wheels flew off her game), Jason (who was playing a pretty good game until Austin got him back doored), Meg (God love her, worst game player ever but she always had a smile on her face and was funny and cute), John (bringing back the bobcat goldthwait voice of the 80s and not a great stratigist), Steve (maybe the oddest game player in history of BB and the one person I thought would see through the BS with an analysts mindset) and James (he made the ballsiest move in the game and watching him scare Meg and Steve, hilarious!). Maybe stop letting Boogie and Dr. Will pick these people? (allegedly)

Thanks LM! Good to know that the Powers that Be aren’t oblivious and are paying attention. It wasn’t just US!! 😉

@Jolee….ok. I am way confused here. You said that last year YOU were interviewing HGS in the BY and this year you won’t be going to that party! HUH??? I am assuming it was some kind of pronoun mix up…right??? Otherwise, how did you get THAT status with the show??LOL PLEASE explain or take me with you this year!!!lol

@Margie….LOL and DITTO!!!! WTH??? 😉

@Bobo.. I hope you didn’t take that as an insult!!! I was happy to see more from you!! But there were a couple of people on here that did used to just C/P a lot(from a certain other blog you are on) and I am sure it has something to do with plagerism and rights and all that on BBBlogger’s part! If you want to discus other blogs that ‘s one thing. But to quote whole pages is another. Altho I do not remember you doing that! Better in our own words anyway. Then it’s OUR opinions!! 🙂

@HPR…the last one to find out about the twins was AUISTIN!!! ANd he was making out with them !!!lol Yup…..observant super fan of BB. That’s HIM alright!! NOT!!!!!! lol

@Mike R…..that is my hubby’s name !! lol But he hates blogging or anything to do with writing, so I was like…….HUH??LOL I agree with your assessment of the HGS and liked the same. Except Audrey. Never liked her from Day 1. Altho I am sure I have hated some people as much as the Austwins, they are right up there!!! IF Julia would have been sent home earlier and then Aus, I think Liz could have done ok in here by herself. Nome of them have done too shabby tho actually. But then alot of HGS we can’t stand make it to F2 or even WIN! That’s just the game!!!

@swt…you have got to have Vet status by now! How long have you been on here?? SO no worries!! 😉

Hate the game, not the player?? Shouldn’t it be the other way around? The game is the game. Besides little differences they throw in the game season to season, the way to play the game to win the game never changes. Certain strategies may differ depending on the player and the other HGs that are in the game but the winning formula remains the same. Developing relationships throughout the entire house is vital. Even if you dislike a certain HG, it is essential to develop some kind of relationship with that HG so when you need to talk game later with that player it doesn’t seem out of character or awkward. Hence Meg and James this season. The players however do change from season to season and the way each player plays is different as well. You have to be able to adapt to how the other HGs are playing or not playing and be flexible. Having a set way to play the game before you know who you’re playing against wouldn’t be a winning formula. I believe that’s what too many players this season experienced.

Star September 8, 2015 at 6:56 pm

OMG! Not only do the producers need to selected better players next yer and bring back some of the old comps and twists, they need to get a good exterminator to get rid of those ants once and for all!!! And just heard that now they have termites in the LR too!!! That is just disgusting!!! I am wondering why the health department lets that go on?? UGH!

Julia, being the mean girl she is, just said that Van and Mel will be broken up within a year! She is such a bitch! I get the feeling she is envious of Liz all the time and feels like the LESS than twin! So she has a lot of anger and resentment in her.

Also, playing pool last nite, she was going back and forth between Spanish and English a lot. I know Nolan is Irish, and they say they are Italian, so that is why they cook so good. I wonder if they also have some Cuban in them or if it’s just because they hear it in Florida all the time. She’s a strange chick!! lol

Last year they had a party in the backyard. Rachel was even there. ‘They” interviewed several of the houseguests. But, I said I will not be attending the party (via internet) this year unless Steve or Johnny Mac wins! 🙂 🙂
If I ever get invited, you will be the first person (next to my sissy) that I would want to go with! 🙂 Sorry for the confusion. I usually proof my comments at least twice before I ‘Submit!” 🙂 Be back later .. I’m watching the semi finals of American Ninja Warrior’s!! Yes I am!! 🙂 🙂

This blog has helped us get through a really bad season of Big Brother.
Now, let’s talk a little Big Brother! 🙂 I am hoping, really hoping we will be able to celebrate after Thursday’s show. The very best scenario is for Liz to go home and for Johnny Mac to win HOH! Then …. for him to nominate Vanessa and Austin ( or Julia)
Now, that would call for a celebration as far as I’m concerned! Good night everyone. Goodnight my shining Star!! 🙂

BBAD—-so boring tonight. And the constant bed scenes between Austin and Liz were
too hard to watch. I had to fast forward. He tries to make her captive and unable to
move away from him. Why she gets in bed with him is beyond me. No game or amount
of money would be worth that much humiliation and loss of dignity.

I can’t figure out which side Vanessa is really pulling for to win Thurs. HOH. If they all
ever get together and compare stories….boom! I wish I could be a fly on the wall when
they go back and watch themselves on BB. As dense as they have appeared to be through-
out this game, they are going to have to realize how they were played by Vanessa. I don’t
think very many of them will remain friends after this is over. But then again, they might
really get close afterwards. It happened with Rachel. As badly as she was disliked by the
HGs, afterwards many of them became very good friends with her.

Thurs. can’t get here soon enough!

Thanks Lisa Marie for your blogs!!

Watching BBAD…..Vanessa (the smart one!) just told JM and Julia that Virgin Galaxy will be taking people to the MOON for 1million dollars and the trips will begin in 5 years!!! She said that NASA does it all the time and they have perfected the process!! WHAT PLANET IS SHE FROM!!! LOL!!! (Or am I confused? Please let me know!)

I also am DISGUSTED by the way Austin pins Liz down and mauls her!! Poor Liz doesn’t stand a chance against him! She was sooo relieved when Julia walked in and interrupted them!!

Well, the twins were trying to talk in the hammock and who comes strolling out of the house….Austin!!! They can’t even have a private conversation!

Vanessa is manipulating everyone and the twins want Austin to blow her cover!! She talks to JM about getting rid of Steve then she tells Steve they have to get ready to evict JM!! I think they’re planning to blow her game up and then we can listen to Vanessa try to double-talk her way out of it!! LOL!!

Just trying to make something out of this season…..it’s all be sooo predictable. Where is the “Expect the Unexpected”??

O/T…..I hope and pray that all my fellow bloggers get healthy and feel better soon!! I know how y’all feel…I have to take enough medicine to kill a horse! LOL! And then I still don’t feel that great…taking it one day at a time…trying to be a good witness for Christ!! I love all of my friends here and am sad it’ll soon be coming to an end! But I really enjoy reading this blog and will keep doing so because I’m a Big Brother fan!!

I jumped forward I will read after I post.

I barely ever watced BBAD this year, those were boring moments I will never get back in my life again. However I did watch most of the night before last. I could have sworn Austin was telling the twins that he thought VANESSA would probably be voted Americas Favourite Player?!!!

With me being Canadian I wont be able to vote. .. another vital moment missing out of my life. .. but can someone put a vote in for JAMES for me? 😉

If there should happen to be another BB next year. .. Les, lets get back to the real game, the one that was so much fun to watch last century. For your cast, forget about all these semi professional atheletes, starlet wannabes, etc ad nauseum.

Lets see all the first evictees from all the previous years and we just might have a real game with real players! 😉

Vote for James!

Why don’t Liz just say no to him. I kind of think she likes it because sometimes when he is not touching her she snuggles up to him.

Vanessa’s public relations firm, Me, Myself and I, met with the twins to assure them that Vanessa will honor Steve’s HOH and do as Steve wishes regarding which twin to vote out, which translated into language only Vanessa understands or ever fully discloses actually means the twin Vanessa wants voted out will ultimately be the twin Steve will want to be voted out, thus avoiding even a hint that Vanessa would personally play favorites with the twins, and, as usual keep all visible signs of and blood on her hands.

I’m still waiting for Vanessa to start harvesting her ripe facial pimple garden to, at the very least, get some blood on her face.

I tell you what could help this season – is exactly what someone already said – Expose Vanessa to the house and watch her squirm. However with this group of losers no one is brave enough to have that confrontation. Please make this happen BB.

In past seasons there was always houseguests that had no problem confronting the bullies.

@Annie, I always enjoy your posts. Your O/T comments are always welcome. I pray you are feeling better. I agree with you about always being a witness. The only negative comments I make are always directed at the HG’s. They are fair game because of the nature of the show, they tend to be like actors in a drama. You cheer for the good guys and boo the bad guys!! 🙂 I am also looking forward to Thursday and hoping Liz goes home and Johnny Mac winning HOH!!! Please!!! 🙂
@tendr, I will!! 🙂
Later! 😎

@Cheryl..you wish is granted! the twins figured out last nite that van was playing both sides of the house! And no matter which duo remained…van and Aus or Steve-uhh and JM, she would be at least F3! better late than never…DUH!! They didn’t tell Aus they know and whichever twin is left is going after Van! I think Julia is going home now as they think Liz is the stronger player and Julia said she is going to do a Clay…aka and save her twin!!! I feel better than SOMEONE still in the hpuse has Van figured out! The thing is, a lot of other HGS HAD figured her put weeks ago, but she’s still THERE!!!! And so are the twins!!!! Either no one knew how to play BB this yer or they all had no balls because this F5 should not look like this!!!

@BC Marie..good to see you!! I will definitely vote for James for you as he is who I want to win too!!!! I think it might be between him and JM but if JM is in F2 he can’t win it anyway. So I am rooting for Jamessss-uuhhhh….lol

@Hey Annie!! Another blogger who doesn’t come on enough! We miss you guys!!! 😉 I am feeling much better altho not over it. But I’ll take it. I had no idea so many people were suffering and much sicker than I am! Maybe if JM or Steve win this thing we will all have renewed energy!!! 😉

HGS are just getting up and around in the house and have been told there is a 1:00 lockdown. I wonder if the are starting to set up Thurs set already. If so, they won’t be able to go out all nite. BORING!!!! *sigh* Another crappy nite on BBAD. Last nite was better. At least they can play pool or lay on the hammock or work out!!!

Nothing else to report. I’ll check back in later!!
