WWTBAM Air date! (November 10-11)

#1 Post by madamemeisha » Mon Nov 03, 2008 1:48 pm

Millionaire just sent me my airdates...I'll be starting on Monday, November 10 and carrying over to Tuesday, November 11. It's sooner than I expected, and I'm so excited! I'm Brianne Sherman by the way. I know I've mostly been lurking, but this board has been a lot of fun to read and definitely has given me some perspective on the game. I hope you all watch!

I'm going to school in Ashland right now. I'm a Washington state native though.

That's great! And right around the corner, too. I'll be watching.

Oh I will. I'm positively giddy about it, so I apologize in advance if I get repetitive!

I'm sure it's given you some perspective on abnormal psychology too. :twisted:

D'oh! I'll be in Israel, so I probably won't get to watch it until I get back home. I hope my TiVo has enough room to record everything I'll want to watch.

Still, I'm delighted that the wait will be that much less for Brianne, both to see her appearance and to receive her check (assuming she didn't llama, of course). --Bob (who may or may not have sufficient information to know whether she llamaed)

Israel, Bob?

Business or pleasure?

Pleasure. We wrapped a trip to New York around a 10-day trip to Israel. I'm taking a total of two and a half weeks off here at the office, with a few days in New York starting Wednesday and a couple of days more about a week before Thanksgiving.

I understand that our hotel in Haifa has Internet access, so there is hope I won't be a complete stranger while I'm gone. --Bob

Wow, Israel! Have a fun and safe trip, Bob. I hope you get to see it when you get back. Assuming I used my PAF lifeline, your picture may be on tv! ;)

I'll be eagerly awaiting this day with you as we are sharing the air date! I'm the carryover contestant for Nov. 10. I'm curious about who is before and/or after you on Nov. 10-11. There were two more members from my group who followed me, and I'm trying to get us all on tape. Plus, Patrick Pugh's redo may be airing then as well. So in your contestant list from Trisha, do you have Russelle (female), Robert, and/or Patrick listed? I was assuming Russelle or Patrick might be after me as they both taped right after me.

Have there ever been two BBs shown on the same day?

Whoohoo! I can't wait until next week for the chance to get to "know" both of you!

There's nothing I love more than getting to put faces with familiar names.

Hmm. I don't have any of you listed at all on my airdate sheet. They must be airing two separate shows on the same day. The people before/after me are all people who were in the green room with me. I'm excited to see your show too!

No, they must have changed Winnamill's broadcast date.

Bumping this thread up, particularly because the name of one of today's contestants sounded very familiar as I was watching the show. As it should be, because she's our own Winnamill!

Watch today, if you've still got time, west coasters!

Set those VCRs and DVRs for Monday, everyone!

If anyone's interested, here's what my school wrote up about me.
http://www.sou.edu/marketing/millionaire.html

They of course decided to take some liberties with my words, but that's ok. For example, I didn't exactly say the school had helped me on the show. Also, as we all know, the show doesn't fly anyone out and put them up in a hotel. I guess now I've learned to be more specifc in interviews. Still, it was fun!

I didn't know you took the test at Jackson Rancheria! That's where I took mine too. Were you in the early or the later session? I was in the early session. Roberta Bradley, who aired on Thursday, was in my group too. We realized when we met on the steps of the hotel on the way to the show that we were in the same session. I am almost 100% sure we stood right next to each other while in the photo line.

BTW, I'm assuming you are a specialty week show since Trisha told me there would be two weeks of special programming between my first and second days. If that is the case, does the show pay expenses for specialty contestants as your school article mentioned? That is a really great bonus for specialty show people!

Looking forward to seeing how your show turns out!
