Big Brother Winter Twist Revealed - Soul Mates????

So this years Big Brother twist is that each contestant has been paired with their "soul mate" as determined by Big Brother.

Apparently each wannabe contestant had to fill out a "love-match" profile along with the standard application. Then Big Brother worked their magic (yeah right) and proceeded to match contestants with who they think will be soul mates, love mates or possibly worst enemies.

During Big Brother 9's premiere broadcast on Tuesday, February 12 at 9PM ET/PT, the houseguests will be told they are being matched up with their "soul mate" -- a "stranger who may prove to be their true love or their worst nightmare," according to CBS.

Apparently Big Brother is hoping for some love connections or some really big fights. Not only are these people paired up for possible love connections but they will also be partners in everything. They will sleep together, compete together, be Head of Household together, be nominated for eviction together and ultimately be evicted together. Hmmm....makes you wonder if this season will be a shortened version of our favorite summer staple. If there are two evictions each week, then this Big Brother won't last longer than 2 months instead of the typical 3 months.

The house, as always has been redesigned and looks like a rustic cabin. Lots of woodsy stuff, dead animals on the walls, stone walls, a free-standing fireplace, a full-size, authentic handmade canoe hanging from the ceiling. There is also a new diary room with real tree trunks in the background, nautical-themed bedrooms, an island oasis-themed HoH room, and even a few live animals.

One change this year is that Big Brother will not be airing on Thursday nights with live evictions. Live Evictions will be held on Wednesday nights. We still get our three episode a week dose of BB, but I am sure producer Allison Grodner didn't want to go up against ratings jugernaut, Survivor, Fans vs Favorites. Can't say I blame her!

There will still be the live feeds, so make sure you have your feed subscription up to date before next Tuesday's premiere and "After Dark" will be on ShowtimeToo again this year.
