The Glass House .. an alternative to Big Brother
Anybody seen any of this show? It sounds very interesting to me.

I see they have had legal spats with Big Brother over the format.

Its a bit urgh.

I have watched the first episode and while its ok to watch its certainly no big brother.
One person decides hes going to be the villain but he goes far too far and is constantly being a tw*t..it got boring very quickly.

I dont like the format,a computer generated type of voice ,the isolation of 2 housemates,the constant interuption of the computer voice with another decision made by the viewer.

BBUSA has nothing to worry about.

I might give it a go ... somebody I know watches it and said they are more grown up than the BBUK Hms lol. That isn't saying very much mind you

I like the format!

Nomination discussion.
Viewers vote on a lot of what the HMs do.

Viewers vote who their favourite is each week, lowest 2 form teams to either risk going or being safe,

I actually think this show would work really well here, it seems to have corrected a lot of BB's faults and combines it with 'the game'

Most importantly it appears to not have the Diary Room 'coaching' which has become so evident in recent years in BB, just 'Diary Room' comments from the HMs.
