#GF16 - The Winner of Grande Fratello 16 is --> MARTINA <--

Another Season of Grande Fratello has come and gone too quick for my taste with the Grand Finale taking place on June 10,2019  - Well that's because Lately the Italian version of Big Brother has been shorten to last only 2 Months (64 Days to be Exact) instead of the Typical 90 Day Minimum for most Big Brother Shows - I have stated many times that any Big Brother Show that last less than 90 days isn't a True  Big Brother Show in my Book. Sure it can be Entertaining but It's far too short for any Real In-Game character development which also makes it more problematic for Housemates to try to develop Good Game Strategies without it all feeling Rushed and/or Forced (Scripted).

However, With that said Congrats goes to Martina the Youngest Housemate in this Edition for taking the Win. Whether or not she was a Worthy Winner I'll leave that up for other to Debate as well as the Voting system Controversy going around which I might Write about in another post or maybe just let others address it on their own sites. Overall is was an OK Season but they need to Stop allowing Bully Strategies in this Game - It just tarnishes the whole Big Brother Experience.

Grand Finale Stats:

WINNER - Martina Nasoni - Age 21 - with 60% Votes to Win - Takes home the €100.000 Grand Prize and The Title of GF16 Winner

2nd Place - Enrico Contarin - Age 26 - with 40% Votes to Win 3rd Place - Gianmarco Onestini - Age 22 - With 22% Votes to Win 4th Place - Daniele Dal Moro - Age 28 - With 81% Votes to Evict 5th Place - Gennaro Lillio - Age 27 - With 60% Votes to Evict

For those curious about the Vote Percentages during the Finale show the Voting Lines were Open and Closed several Times - First to Evict 3 Finalists then the Final Vote to Pick the Winner between Martina and Enrico - Their Previous Votes totals during the Eviction Stage were added to their Final Vote Tally to Win.

#GF16 - Meet the Grande Fratello 16th Edition Housemates - 20 Total 😉👌

This is a Very Late Post since I was currently watching the Big Brother Spain and Brasil Edition while this one Started and was very busy Tweeting about them on Twitter - However I was also watching GF on the side and I'm all caught up and up to date.

The 16th Edition of the Civilian version of Grande Fratello premiered on Monday April 8, 2019 almost 2 weeks ago. There have been 2 Housemates Evicted since then Angela and Audrey and a New Housemate entered during this time and his name is Alberico. So the Total Overall number of Housemates was 19 and with Alberico it became 20.

Just a side note for those who watched the 9th Edition of Big Brother Argentina - you might recognize one of the girls in the pictures above - Her name is Ivana Icardi as for who she is Google it. Does she have an advantage in the Game since she has played a different version of Big Brother in the past - Sure but even though both the Argentina and Italy Version of Big Brother are similar in many ways it’s are also quite different at the same time. So what worked for her in Argentina may or may not work for her in Italy - Time will Tell.

#GF15 -- Meet the 17 New Grande Fratello 15 Housemates

A New Season of Grande Fratello Started a Few Days ago on April 17,2018. I know this post is Late but I was very Busy watching Big Brother Brasil and Big Brother Canada. In Any Case here we have the Housemates who are now Living inside the Big Brother Italy -aka- Grande Fratello House.

#GFVIP The WINNER of Grande Fratello VIP 2 is --> DANIELE<-- 🏆🙂

Another Season of Grande Fratello is now Over (12/4/2017) and it's Fair to say this Season was a Great Success. There were Record Breaking Ratings this Season (28.70% - 29.12% ) which only Guarantees there will be more Shows Coming, In Fact at the End of the Grand Finale show they Left a Big Message in Lights on the Building saying "To be Continued" and that’s always Great News. So Congrats goes to Daniele for taking the Win. As to whether or not he was a Worthy Winner is always up to the Fans to Decide despite my own personal Opinions and in this Case they decided he should be the Winner but only by a 2% difference between him and Luca who took 2nd Place - So it was a Close Battle.

The Grand Finale Stats:

WINNER - Daniele Bossari  - Age 42 - Won with 52% Votes - Takes Home €100,000 Euros - half of which goes to a Charity and the other Half to his Bank account.

2nd Place - Luca Onestini - Age 24 - Received 48% Votes

3rd Place - Ivana Mrázová - Age 25

4th Place - Giulia De Lellis - Age 21

Anyone who Knows me, Knows that for me a True Big Brother Show should have a Minimum of 90 Days - not a Maximum.  Anything below that makes the Big Brother Fan feel cheated out of some Valuable Days and Moments yet to be had in the Big Brother House. However this Grande Fratello VIP lasted 84 Days only 6 days short of the 90 Day Minimum and that’s alot Longer than Most VIP Versions usually Last - So it almost felt like a Normal Complete Edition. And with the success of this Edition which Broke Ratings Records going as high as 29.12% at one point, maybe we will get to see the Return of Longer Seasons, like in the Good old days when Grande Fratello would last 4 to 5 1/2 Months. One can only Hope but based on the Good Ratings anything is Possible and that would be Great.  

#GFVIP - Meet the 14 New Grande Fratello VIP Housemates 😉👌

A New Season of Grande Fratello has arrived 9/19/2016 - However this time it's a VIP Edition and it has a New Host and her name is llary Blasi. The 14 Housemates are not your average Housemates hence the VIP Status so we can expect a Different Big Brother show from that of the Normal Civilian Edition.

So for those of us who are Big Fans of the Big Brother Franchise we now have another Option to put on our Big Brother Watch List. If you don't know me by now - I watch Multiple Big Brother Shows at the same time so one more show to watch isn't really that big of a deal for me. However I've been weeding out the Bad Big Brother Shows from the Good ones and sticking to the ones that can still capture my attention. So I will take a Look and see how this Edition of Grande Fratello plays out. So Lets hope it's a Good one. 😉👌
