Summary: The best addiction ever
Review: "Big Brother" was one of the first of a long string of reality shows that were to be produced in the US. While the first season was boring and uneventful, with the show's second season, they re-formatted the game AND the house, and "Big Brother" became my (and many others) summer addiction.

Big Brother 3 (aired July-September 2002) was easily the best of the 4 seasons so far. It had a very dynamic group of individuals living together in a house for 3 months with $500,000 awarded to the last person who remained, or in other words, survived the weekly evictions. Amy and Marcellas were easily the MOST entertaining people I have ever seen and are worth the price of this set alone.

The DVD is great if you want the 32 episodes of Big Brother 3 to cherish forever. Yes, the packaging could have been given more effort, and yes, the special features list is a little lacking, but I purchased this for the show I loved so much, not the special features, or A-grade packaging. As long as you know that when you order it, you shouldn't be disappointed.

Whether you were a fan of the show or not, Big Brother 3 is a reality soap opera with all the conniving, backstabbing, dissing, fighting and strange behavior one could ever ask for. Its trashy and voyeuristic, but awesome!

Summary: Big Brother 3
Review: I am a big fan of the Big Brother show. Big Brother 2 is my favorite, but it is not out on DVD yet. But Big Brother 3 comes in as a close 2nd. It is very entertaining watching it for my 2nd time and catching things I missed the first time on TV. Watching the sneakiness, manipulations, and the friendships of all these people make it so much fun to watch. My favorite houseguests are Danielle, Marcellas, Jason , Amy and Roddy. But I find all of them Characters like on a sitcom. I did not care for Big Brother 4 as much as the first 3 shows. It was just too boring. I like it better with a bigger range in ages. I think it should be 3 people in their 20's, 30's, 40's and 50's. Mix it up more. Not more people in their 20's and 30's. Just My Opionion though. But back to Big Brother 3. If you are a Big Brother Fan, then I really believe that you will love watching this over and over again. Never a dull moment with this group of houseguests. : ^ )

Summary: Must-have for BB fans
Review: I am a TRUE big brother addict, and owning this season was only natural for me. I really wish BB2 was on DVD I would buy that in a second!!

I ordered the 'free shipping' that was going to take 2-6 business days and expected to see the package in the mail next week. I ordered the DVD set on a Sunday and received it 3 days later on the Wednesday.

I've been watching the first disk and so far I'm super impressed.. a little bummed that it's censored, and a little bummed that they dont have more special features or deleted scenes, but it's totally worth it for me as I love the show so much.

I'll likely buy the BB4 dvd when that comes out too.

One of the disks was loose when I opened the packaging but they were all alright, no scratches.

I recommend it for any TRUE big brother fans. :)

Summary: Lucky you!
Review: I ordered this after painfully sitting through Australia's Big Brother season one, then half of season 2 then about three seconds of season 3! The US Big Brother is SO much better it's like two very different types of shows. Ours is so dreadful it's gob smacking.

I pray that the powers that be at Channel Ten open their eyes and watch this. Their ratings might improve if rather than picking the majority of house guests as moronic 19 year olds with no vocal capacity, no personality and no IQ... they took a page out of the USA Big Brother book and picked INTERESTING guests of various back grounds and ages. Doh - wouldn't this be obvious!?!?!?

I PLEAD - please send the USA producers to Australia pronto. We need all the help we can get!

Oh by the way - Roddy is a honey and I enjoyed this dvd box set so much I have friends addicted to it now!!!

Summary: Hastily produced but worth it for Big Brother fans
Review: I purchased the set from the CBS site, being an avid Big Brother fan. Though I am very glad to have the entire season, and I can re-live all the moments of the best 'Big Brother' to date, I do have some criticisms, particularly with the last disc in the set. The disc is quite clearly Volume 9, though the spine of the case reads 'Volumes 6-8.' At least two of the episodes near the end of the season were not re-edited for the DVD, because you will still see CBS insignia reminding you to watch Survivor Amazon in one week. All that aside; the BB3 DVD is worth the money, especially if you were a fan of all the quirky houseguests. Cheese, beer and a ceramic lawn gnome named Boo.

Summary: Best Reality show cast ever!
Review: I was thrilled when I found out that CBS was releasing this DVD set, because BB3 was the best cast ever assembled for a TV show. I liked the mix of people, the conflicts, the twists, and overall friendship among the house guests. I rooted for Roddy to win, followed by Jason. I loved the comedic talents of Danielle, Roddy, and Marcellas, though I don't agree with Danielle that Roddy was "the devil". This season offered memorable moments, like Amy coming back into the house after two weeks in Mexico and how her drinking drove her housemates mad, Eric talking in his sleep, witty and whiny Josh, the "stripper mascarading as a mother", Marcellas and his beloved gnome named "Boo", Jason and Danielle's well kept secret alliance, Eric and Lisa's romance, Jason getting nervous over a massage, Sheryl Crow's surprise concert, and more...Lots of great moments for any reality tv show cast, and well deserving of being released on dvd. Since BB3 aired, I haven't liked the cast of BB4 or the current BB5 cast. I think the show hit perfection with #3. Other reality show casts I like are: MTV Real World Hawaii, MTV Real World New Orleans, and MTV Road Rules Australia, and Survivor: The Australian Outback. I wish they would release those on DVD too. But I doubt that anyone will ever assemble as great a cast on any reality show as BB3 was.
