It's not very different at all -- in our first story about it, the one of the producers (who are all the same people behind Paradise Hotel) even admitted that Eden was pretty much "Paradise Hotel, version 2.0"

Here's the original story:

...horrible timeslot though -- with FOX's schedule as bad as it is, I can't believe they can't find a couple of better timeslots than Thursdays at 9Pm and Fridays at 8PM for Forever Eden and Playing It Straight.

If they wanted to dump something on Fridays, they should have dumped the horrible The Swan series there...

thanks for the info...obviously I'm still a newbie here!

"These people could be on the air for six months, a year or three years," FOX's head of alternative programming Mike Darnell told Variety. "If you want to stay and you play your cards right, you could be on the air forever. It's the first real try at a reality soap opera."

um yeah...I personally give it 4 weeks! heheh

No surprise there! I could tell it was going to be like P-Ho just from watching the promos on Fox.

All the same producers? Hah! Also no surprise.

I guess even Fox knows garbage when they see it.

I never saw Paradise Hotel but this sounds like it might be able to carry itself through a season, maybe two tops. We'll see how long 'forever' is.

I am one of the Paradise Hotel addicts around here. I hope Forever Eden is great! I also hope Toni isn't on it!!

I am another Paradise Hotel addict. I hope Forever Eden does not sway from Paradise Hotel much at all and I hope it lasts a really long time.

I'm really out of the loop lately, because I just heard about this during a promo while watching "24". I was a real P-Ho fan, and I'm looking forward to this one. I hope the one thing that's different is that the producers provide twists, but not to the point of manipulating the outcome. Although I was glad Keith won, they really manipulated those folks a little too much IMHO. Wonder if the Edenites will have learned from P-Ho's. Should be interesting.
Anyone know how new people will come into the game? I hope that's changed too. The cheesy competition and telling the "residents" to give them grief was just trash.

I think you really hit the nail on the head about the one thing that was most disgusting about P-Ho. I couldn't agree with you more.

I didn't pay that much to the promo, but, I heard an interesting quote:

Somebody's been watching Survivor!
