The great thing about Big Brother ( Grande Fratello) is that you can watch live streams of the cast members too even when the show is off air so there are literally hundreds of videos.
Their love story in the house only lasts about 1 -2 months, the time period in which they were both in the house together but there are MANY, MANY memorable moments in that time period. But the dreamworld that they create in the house, especially the parts that we get to see are very endearing. During the show they refer to their love as "Il Sogno" which translates to "The Dream." Which is romantic but also quite sad because they feel that their love can only exist in a dreamworld. It's almost heartbreaking because they love each other so much but the pressure of a homophobic society seems to keep them from really diving into their "dream" love. Their story is really a beautiful thing to watch. They even admit it a few times during the show. Calling it something other than love but viewers of the show can clearly see they are in love with each other.
The thing is they try to hide it and deny it at first. Well these two gorgeous women meet in the house and fall madly in love with one another. Some people are put in a house together and slowly get voted off. Who? Yeah you may not remember them or even know them at all since their love story started over 5 years ago (2010) on an Italian version of Big Brother called "Grande Fratello." So if you've heard of the show, you know how it works. Please, if nothing else, go have a watch (a kind soul has uploaded all the episodes so far with English subtitles ) and come back here to yell with me about how over-the-top it is. If you’re not enticed yet, know that I watched every episode so far in a 48-hour span, and I had to pause multiple times in order to yell “OH MY GOD” out loud to my empty room. Meanwhile, Jade still feels this connection to Althea! What does it all mean? How will she reconcile it with her family? Why is she making the choices she is making?!? ( Here’s a spoileriffic breakdown of how this particular family stacks up against other families.) Jade’s other brother, Paul, nurses a grudge against her and expositionally threatens to ruin her whenever he gets a chance. Disobedience - such as having an unapproved relationship, especially a queer one - will certainly be met with shame and familial dishonor, if not disownment. The Tanchingcos are a traditional, patriarchal family, one that’s very concerned with saving face. HOW CUTE IS THAT? Remember, though, this is a good ol’ fashioned soap opera, so there’s plenty at stake that moves very quickly.
