Phil Proctor, Big Brother Announcer, Fired for Season 6
"It is with a sad heart and a diminished bank account that I must inform you that on the afternoon of the day before I was to begin my 4th season as announcer on 'Big Brother 6,' I was told that due to all the new' aspects of he show my services would not be required after all, even though I actually had a tour of the house and got my new security badge!
According to a nice letter from the producers at Arnold Shapiro Productions the suits at CBS decided to change the entire opening sequence including the music (after 5 years) and the announcer (after 3) and they waited until the last minute to can me... so there you are. And here I am."
