I've never seen Big Brother so I have no idea what they were like in that. (Both seasons?) I do not like them, though; they just annoy me for some reason. Maybe it's because Rachel looks incapable of talking without moving her head around?

Ok, I've been lurking here for awhile. Love the site and it's insight on the various TAR shows around the world.

When I saw that Brenchel was POSSIBLY one of the teams I cringed. When I saw the CBS meet the teams and realized they were ACTUALLY on this season... :gaah:

I followed big brother and I COULD NOT STAND EITHER ONE OF THEM. That's all I'm gonna say.

This is the first time I've seen them, but why do I have this feeling that I'm gonna hate them? I'm getting a Brent/Caite vibe.  :lol:

Oh this season is going to lots of crying and backstabbing with these two. Especially the trouble maker Rachel.  Should be fun to watch this train wreck ......

But Rachel's really competitive... I don't think she would let something messy or disgusting stop her.

OMG, today I was watching The Bold & The Beautiful here in Australia and all of a sudden, this redhead appears and starts talking while her head is bouncing around at the same time, and I'm like: "She's familiar..."

Then I get another look at her, and I realise it was Rachel. And then she waves at the bartender and says, "Hi baby" and it shows the bartender was Brendon! :lol3: :lol3: :lol3:

This was a Halloween episode, so I assume it aired around 3 months ago in the United States, but I was ROFL-ing today when I saw that! :lol3: :lol3: :lol3:
I'd rather walk alone than let them throw dirty confetti. ♥

GAG. Here we go again. Give someone else  a chance to win the money instead of the same couples.
