In the June 1st TVGuide they have a small blurb about Big Brother and they mention 13 houseguests, but they could just be basing it off of last season having 13.

13 makes sense because having only 10 houesguest would put the finale on August 27

Ugh! 10 houseguests is going to be ridiculous, if true. Even if all 10 are fantastic personalities, it won't compensate for the lack of gameplay and drama that will be caused by fewer players. I hate to say it, but I can believe this is true. Another factor for it would be because Julie's due date is going to be so close to the finale.

Where did you get that from, Rick?

It shows BB airing on September 13th at 8PM but that's the same time slot as the Primetime Emmy Awards.

This was posted on May 29 before CBS moved the Emmy's up a week. My guess is that The Sunday show will be aired on Saturday. If I'm not mistaken the CBS fall season starts Monday the 21st

LoL, check out the BBUK Diary Room chair.

It premieres today! I might watch the first episode or two, but I doubt I'll keep up with it. It does sound like they have some pretty interesting concepts for this season though.

Official Site Launched!

The official Big Brother 11 website is up and running at CBS.com!

Link HERE.

What immediately popped out to me were the twelve empty slots at the top of the page for photos of the houseguests. I'm guessing this means that there will be twelve cast members this season. They could always surprise us by tossing in a couple extras on premiere night, but for now, it's looking like we'll have at least twelve crazies to watch. That's good news. Although it's still two less than normal, twelve people is much better than ten.

Also, the fantasy game has finally returned!

Robyn Kass Exposes "Big Brother 11" Secrets!

TV Grapevine has posted an audio interview with Robyn Kass, the casting direction for Big Brother. In the interview, she shares a bit of information about the length of the upcoming season, as well as the casting process and what the new house looks like.

You can listen to the interview HERE.

Here are the more interesting bits that she was able to share:

- The promo department has absolutely nothing to do with the casting process. Just because the promo advertises "Bigger Secrets," it doesn't mean she's casting people who have something to hide. Robyn says that the BB9 promos had a line advertising "Dirty Little Secrets" and the conspiracy theorists went crazy trying to figure out if it had something to do with the twist or the cast, and it didn't. Robyn says: "The promo department has absolutely nothing to do with the casting of Big Brother or the show. They're doing that on their own. They have their own promos, their own people. They know nothing about any possible twist, nothing about the cast, nothing about the house."

- Robyn says that she doesn't think this season will be any shorter than the other seasons. "No, I don't think so. I'm probably not the one to ask, but I would tell fans not to read into it. As far as I know, it's just another season, maybe a couple days less. Maybe a week less. Big Brother fans are the best fans in the world, hands down. They love to read into things." It is mentioned that Big Brother usually ends about a week before Survivor, so we might know more about the length of BB11 when the premiere date for Survivor is announced.

- Robyn says that she had alot of great people in the finals this year, some of her favorite personalities ever. "I love that the people who come in to interview know the show and know the game. There's a lot of diehard fans who come out, and it always makes it interesting. I love to hear about people's strategies going in, and this process is really exciting for me. It's like puzzle where we're thinking, 'These people will get along, and these people WON'T get along.' None of those predictions usually work out though. I don't know what happens in that house, but we have some really interesting people this year."

- Robyn has toured the new house. It's not completely finished, but she says it looks "really cool."

It bugs me that Robyn said this season "might be a week shorter" when we were already a week or two short least season. Last year, we had one less houseguest AND a double eviction. Now we're probably losing another houseguest and they could be cutting another week off the show. Is this going to happen every season until we're down to nothing?

Oh, I'm excited too. The entire month before Big Brother is nothing but raw anticipation for me, LoL! I just wish we had some definitive answers so that I know what to expect without disappointment.
