seem like a really interesting bunch a bit excited now!

[Liberty4eva]

It must suck that they're only playing for 100K + a new car. How many people would take 3 months out of their lives for only a 1 in 15 shot at 100K? I wouldn't. Producers are really cheap.

[Marc]

Awesome!

[Munchkins]

I'm SO SO Excited for this!
i'm shocked at the amount of housemates... BB US hardly ever has that many

[LemonJam]

I think they've managed to have more Asian housemates in one season than BBUS has had in its lifetime lol

I assume Talla, Suzette, Aneal, Anuj and Kat.

[Brekkie]

The more I see of ET Canada the more I realise how brilliant a choice they've made in making Arisa host, as can be seen in this clip here which will be of absolutely no interest to any of you.

The back yard looks like it's indoors

It is indoors - there's only a small outdoor area

[Brekkie]

It really does feel indoors too and let's the house down. I understand why they've done it but other shows (The Glass House, Back to Reality) have done indoor outdoor areas better. Ideally the house would lead directly to a small genuine outdoor area and then the pool etc. be in some kind of pool house, with an indoor arena for the challenges.

[jyunga]

It's winter! How could there be a real outdoors area :P

[Brekkie]

Because Canadians never go outdoors in the winter.
