It should be easy enough, us UK viewers are easily able to watch the US version online so I'm guessing that international viewers of the Canadian show shouldn't find it too hard either!

Hope so, never can figure out these things though.

Not sure if anyone would be interested, and I'm not recommending it either, but ibVPN has a 50% off deal for today only. They're celebrating 3 years or something?

Anyway, I got the US / Canada servers for the full year for 15 pound. They add VAT to UK transactions so add 20% to the price after halfing the value with the promo code to get the actual price they'll charge you.

Thanks for the info. I'm in the US and just looked at the prices. Don't really want to get into a monthly payment deal. But I'll keep that website, because I had no idea how to do it before.

I've used the website twice before on a 3 month plan before the last two US series and had no problems cancelling after one payment both times!

Thanks!

That's what I do for USBB. We pay about $15 a month for USBB live feed.

Thanks for the link

14 HGs confirmed then, a nice even number. Hopefully doesn't indicate another 'couples' twist.

Less than a month to go and agree with inmyarms hopefully no couples or something twist.

Also for those that have in passt watched BBUS feeds how much would you say you watch as thats 1 of the main reasons ive never looked into getting the feeds.

I just dont think id watch enough to make it worth the money.

The highlights of a typical week for me tend to be

- The night the HoH is crowned, usually after the house begins to clear off after going into the HoH's new room, as there's lots of strategy.
- The day the nominations are decided.
- Just after the veto competition
- Just after the veto meeting depending on whether it was used.
- The night before eviction.

Endurance competitions are awesome on the feeds too, and typically last hours and there's probably about three a season. But having said that there are sometimes days between the key events where things can get very dull indeed. The Canadian feeds are free so give it a go

I've never watched the feeds live. Though did watch some BBAD which CA are airing so may watch some of them.

Anything major happens then it'll usually get capped and put on youtube, like Dan's Funeral, even though it lasted a good few hours.

You'll never get a real feeling of the show without the feeds. The show is edited and leaves out a whole bunch of stuff.

I am on the east coast and always missed the best part of the feeds, usually late at night LA time. But now they have rewind on the feeds and you can play any earlier time.

But if you aren't going to devote a certain amount of time to it, don't spend the money. Just watch the show, its a different take, but still enjoyable, usually.

It's the buzz it creates. Forums are totally different with live feed as there is far more information about the house.

I don't like them censoring all the major competitions out like the US versions though, that's a rip off.

The BBAD times quoted above are for US BB and they are EAST COAST TIME. They are live. So its 11PM to 2AM West Coast Time.

And BBAD is on a cable channel that many people don't get in their cable package (I don't).

Thanks, so quite late then if its 11pm onwards in the house.

Had no problem watching BBAD US episodes, so hopefully that'll continue for CA.

Yes, for BBAD its the best time in the house, USUALLY. They don't ply them with as much liquor as they used to though. I think a few seasons got too rowdy and bb cut back on t he booze.

Perhaps it might have been BB6 (which I call the American version of Fight Night) that caused BB to be a little more strict on booze, although that bustup wasn't really due to the alcohol per se.
