Big Brother producer talks about rigging/feeds accusasations

House Calls (the Big Brother USA talk show) has special guest Arnold Shapiro, the producer of Big Brother 7 (All Stars). In this clip, he addresses the accusations that live feed viewers have given about blocking the feeds too much and that some competitions (and technical difficulties) are rigged to favour some houseguests. Gretchen then accuses the viewers for being greedy for expecting to watch what they paid for.

Very interesting..thanks for posting this.

My pleasure. I was actually in agreement with the producer until Gretchen accused the users of being "greedy" for expecting to get what they paid for. She should have kept her mouth shut there IMHO.

o shut up gretchen, we weren't greedy

[grits207]

I understand if they block the feeds when somebody sings or something but they block it every fucking time that a producer speaks over the PA which is ridiculous. I like the feeds and I can live with the cuts but don't call the fans greedy for wondering why they can't see what they are paying $15 a month for. Fuck that dumb, plastic cunted whore.

@bookiewormie1 no actually he isn't retired, people need to GET OVER IT, NOTHING WAS RIGGED!!!! THE GAMES ARE PREDETERMINED BEFORE THE GAME EVEN STARTS!!!

[Loopulk]

Guys, they even said they needed to block out singing because they might get sued! Okay? Seriously, if they get sued the prices go up, then you'd all be complaining.

He just said rigging would never happen.

BB13 was 934879537495% rigged.

Gretchen greedy?? wtf they pay for live feeds it's not included in basic cable subscription. what a dumb ass.

[LighterB]

Well what else is he going to say? "Yes we do rig it"?? lies!

[bookiewormie1]

He must of retired because that Pandora box duo definitely rigged the game for Jordan and Rachel.

"Rigged" may be the wrong word...but the order of competitions is adjusted to favor certain HGs at key times. To believe otherwise would need for us to believe that it's plain COINCIDENCE that the person who needs to win or is been favored, gets a competition to play to their strengths. There are WAY too many "coincidences" in BB. Rigged, no..since the players still have to play, but the influence goes above and beyond fair play.

Your such a fucking asshole You have to try to make a vid reversing Your traits? Who the fuck cares? Who the F are You trying to explain Yourself to who? Why the stupid white chick that laughs like a henina and why the stupid guy that says well I dont know? You just said You blocked things! BULLSHIT! FUCK YOUR CBS ATTORNEYS!

[Qdawg121]

BB wasnt rigged in the past. but hell yeah its blocked now and if you think this is real then your a fucking idiot . America HATES Brendon and you think theyd actually vote for him back????? I thought it was the truth but then pandoras box comes and practically pulls rach and jordan to finals. if they didnt have the double eviction live. then jeff would be their prob to.

I completely understand if they cut the feed when they are playing a game cause they want us to see it on CBS. I get that. What I don't get is how they can sing every damn 5 minutes or if they are talking about something and it could be defamatory to a person and yet they are never penalized. Bring better people into the game or tell these fuckers to stop singing or there will be consequences. They always get away with singing and yet BB choose to do nothing about it.
