Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, just got back from WDW over the weekend and have not yet caught up on the thread....but why have they not showed the sequester house AT ALL yet? Is it because Jen refused to go there? I heard that rumor but was not sure if it was true.
Hi Zalansky
This is what was posted on Morty's yesterday....
No Scenes From the Jury House: While we wait, I'll answer a question a lot of people have asked me. "Where's the footage from the jury house?" Executive Producer Allison Grodner sent out a statement saying their would be no more interviews with evicted HGs, they'll all be available to the press after the finale.
There were several reasons that caused this change. Last year fans were able to figure out where the sequester house was, and it wasn't as secluded as it appeared on TV. People were driving by in their cars and yelling out information. This year, during a post eviction interview, the HG was asked questions that gave away details they were not supposed to have. You'll notice that the last evictees were not even on The Early Show or House Calls.
Then there's the Amber problem. It's possible she's was the cause of the media black-out, because the press is dying to ask her about her anti-Semitic remarks. I think if Amber knew about these stories she'd break sequester, as she has some serious emotional issues that a media blitz would only compound.
We've also heard that Jen keeps threatening to leave and they have to keep schmoozing her back in.
We've heard that HGs did not need to bring a passport this year, so we think they're all in the US. I have even heard one rumor that they're all being kept in separate hotels, each with a handler.
An article at Reality TV World had this to say: "However, although Amber is now off to the show's sequester location, Big Brother viewers shouldn't expect to see much footage of her new jury house adventures. Unlike previous Big Brother seasons, CBS doesn't plans to broadcast regular weekly footage of each evicted houseguest's jury house arrival. "[The producers only] anticipate [broadcasting] one jury house package before the end of the season," a CBS spokesperson told Reality TV World on Friday."
