BB Housecalls Canceled - Alternatives Popping Up for BB11

[Ace]

Ross the Intern will post interviews with the evicted HGs on Friday mornings (on his Insider page), but there will be no daily call-in show this year.

Wouldn't it be just awesome if Gretchen were the mystery HG? I'd be shocked, though ('cause you gotta assume that if she were, HC would still be in existence w/another host).

I never watched House Calls, but I'm so going to watch the new version because I love Ross.

I love that he's an unabashed BB fanatic, but I hate that there won't be a daily call-in show.

It won't be daily, but Chelsia from BB9 and Missy from Real Networks will be hosting a call-in show every Thurs & Fri during the season at 3PM ET / 12 Noon BBT. It's also exclusive for SuperPass subscribers, and it starts on premiere day, July 9th.

In other substitute-Housecalls news, Ross Mathews from The Insider will get first crack at evicted houseguest online interviews, since his studio is across the street from the BB house.

Inside Dish with Ross Mathews at The Insider

Ugh, I'm a gay man with many flamboyant friends, but Ross Mathews gives me the hives sometimes. That VOICE! Lawd-a-mighty...

Too funny.
I have to agree with you here.
I think Ross is just about the most annoying person on TV and that's putting it mildly.

i loved him before he got all hollywood-ized (after his stint on that weight loss show). now he just comes across to me as a snob. i can't deal with him now.

I'd never seen him before he was on the Insider show. I watch a lot of reality TV, but very few entertainment shows. So the 1 time I tune into Insider when Jeopardy is pre-empted, was when Ross was on. He just seemed a bit too full of himself for me. I like over the top - but, yeah, he did come across as above it all and on another plane from us mere mortals.

[barefootdyke]

exactly.

i thought he was hilarious as the intern for jay leno (i never watched jay, but i watched videos of ross). he's not a 'normal person' anymore.

[MFWalkoff]

Is that where he's from? I never watched Leno, so I never knew.

It makes sense though, since Ross sounds like Leno on helium (although, in a way Leno himself already sounds like he's on helium too).
