"Big Brother" Adds New Twist to Season 12
Jun 29, 2010
by Robyn Ross

"Big Brother" producers are adding another level of treachery a la The Mole with what they've labeled a "saboteur."

When the show premieres Thursday, July 8 at 8/7c on CBS, one of the houseguests will have a separate mission: to sabotage the rest of them. This player's goal will be unknown to the rest of the cast. Viewers, however, will learn the person's identity July 15 — when the first live show airs.

Viewers will be able to influence the game by suggesting ways the saboteur can best wreak havoc on the players. Because each week a different houseguest is evicted, the longer the secret player can stay in the game and maintain his anonymity, the more remunerative it will be for him.

Executive producer Allison Grodner calls the person "a game piece ... that will make life for the houseguests harder than ever before."

Interesting idea, but I think the other houseguests will probably be able to piece it together.
