Well it appears that the speculation flying over the ominously placed Big Brother audition commercials all over CBS the past couple of weeks may in fact be true. With the writers strike CBS has decided to fast track a winter edition of nobodies favorite Reality show. And the best news of all, rumor has it that this will be a celebrity edition. I myself have doubts (or is that wishful thinking) since if this was in fact a celebrity edition then CBS wouldn’t be airing the open casting call commercials 24-7, that is unless the twist is to have both celebrities and regular folk, aww who am I kidding this show is cast with wannabe actors and actresses anyway. Thats no different then pulling on a few D list celebs…
