Is anyone watching BB8? I've always liked to watch BB. I was a little upsest to see Jen get HH tonight. My guess is that Dick will be on the chopping block next week.

I was also surprised to see that the voting off of Carol was so against her. I thought it would be a closer vote.

I'm watching. Not sure who I really like yet and who I don't. But this season it seems like with some of the guys, every other word out of their mouth is a curse word and they have to be bleeped! Tonight with the HOH competition, when they asked who the houseguests thought was more likely to hold a gruge, Dick or Daniele, I even guessed that one right! That one wasn't too hard to figure out considering Dick has tried numerous times to get in touch with Daniele and she just ignores him!

I was really surprised that the vote went so against Carol tonight, also. And Jen seems to be just really annoying, especially with her t-shirts that she made up, like Jenius...sheesh!

I've been watching most of the new network reality programs, except those on FOX. For some reason I don't care for most of FOX's programs...the only one I like is American Idol. I've been watching Pirate Master, America's Got Talent, BB 8, and we even watched Singing Bee. Also been watching the new non-reality programs on ABC...Kyle XY and Traveller.

I have been watching also.....I have watched every season....love the show. Jen annoys me....nick is a cutie...I think I am rooting for danielle to win right now....that of course will change 10 times over I am sure. It is going to be an interesting season for sure.

Hey everyone!!

I'm new here on Vince's board, and I LOVE Big Brother!! I didn't watch the first season, and got into it around the middle of the second season (I think). I've been rooting for Amber and Eric so far. I, too can't stand Jen!! Who cries over a picture chosen by producers, you know, those people with LOTS of experience in these things?!

I have a feeling that Jen will be around for a while. If she were gone there wouldn't be anyone so aggravating around, lol. Usually the one who I would like to see go first lasts the longest. It makes you wonder sometimes if it all isn't staged for ratings. Oh well I enjoy watching it anyway but Jen certainly does get on my nerves. This year though there isn't anyone that I am really rooting for. That will probably change as I get to know the players better. I do like Kail and Nick.

I have to say that Amber is now getting on my nerves now. She cries over everything (well, not everything, as she hasn't cried because her picture is bad)! I am liking Dustin now.

Nominations last night really didn't surprise me at all.

I know I will continue to keep watching but I honestly don't really have any favorites right now. I did like Kail but I don't like the way she did lie to Nick (I know it's just a game) but she told him she would vote to keep him and then turned around and went to try and get him voted out.

Danielle, there is just something about her that I just don't quite trust. Maybe I'm wrong here but it's just a feeling I have.

Things may change for me as the game goes on but right now they are ALL getting on my nerves.lol

We have watched since the show first started 8 years ago. Why?, I don't know but we continue to see these self indulgent, whining, people as a humorous adventure. We are so addicted that we watch, sometimes, the 9-12 PM show of the house on Showtimetoo. On that show we hear the F word at least 100 times.......mainly out of the mouth of Amber and Nick. Amazingly, on the live feed they clean up their act. Dick must smoke at least two packs of cigarettes a day plus go outside and talk to himself for at least 30 minutes. Watching the late feed also tells us that Jen won the POV, Dick got into a huge fight with Nick, and put up Mike when Jen took herself off the block. So, good bye Kail, you just got suckered into a bad scheme.

I can't remember when I really started watching BB, but I know it was at least 2 or 3 seasons in. I do remember turning on BB during Season 1 and was bored with it, so turned it off and didn't watch it anymore until either Season 2 or 3, but even though I haven't been watching since the very beginning, I can't remember a season where there has been so many bleeps because of the language in the house! It seems like every other word out of almost everyones mouths in that house is either the F word or the S word.

Well, IMO Sunday night's episode was the most boring show I have watched on a BB series. I hope that Dick and Danielle can work out thier problems but I don't really want to sit and watch 10 minutes of them trying to work it out on the show, lol, besides I can barely understand a word Danielle says, she has this little whisper and if I don't turn on the captions I don't know what she is saying.

I really do not have a favorite anymore and could really care less about who wins. I never got into watching BB until I think season 3 but I think this is the worst season there has been. As someone said every other word is bleeped and it seems to me like you know they are acting or have a script to do. I don't know what it is for sure but I am just not enjoying it this season but will probably continue to watch, it gets addicting no matter how bad it is, lol.

I watch once in a while. My family hates the show, so I can only see it if I grab the tv first I don't know who I like, but I don't like Kail, so I hope she goes soon, along with Jen and then Amber. I like the drama Dick causes, it would be really boring if he leaves, not much in personality this show.

Late night on Showtime TOO.
Amber is crying.
Daniele is crying.
Nick has a Mohawk hair do.
Amber is crying.
Daniele is crying.
Nick is beating his gums with Dick about how he has been side doored.
We are counting Tatoos, and how many times the F word has been used. CBS reallly hit the bottom of the barrel with these folks..........Wouldn't you love for foreigners to see this motley crew and think we are all like this!

Did you see the fight Jen and Dani got into and then Dick comes along and pours iced tea on Jen's head! LOL! Jen just stood there smiling running her hand thru her hair! Then Nick comes along and starts cussing Jen out...I think every other word he said to Jen was the F word! I really hope the 'iced tea incident' makes it onto the TV show Thursday...doubt the Jen/Nick fight will since Nick is cussing her out. I don't have the live feeds, but someone posted the video on the forum of a website called Joker's Update. If anyone wants the link, PM or e-mail me.

ahahahah, Sharon and Valerie, your updates are funny *L* Keep um coming

I am soooooo tired of seeing Amber cry. The girl cries over everything!!!! I will be glad when and if she is voted off. I watched Showtime 2 one time but it was just them trashing each other, lol.

I admire Jameka for sticking to her principles it that's what she beleives but I don't know if it will help her in the game or not. It could.

As I mentioned before I really don't care for any of them that much. If Dick wouldn't curse so much I do like the way he is stright forward with everything. You KNOW where he stands. Still I keep watching.....lol

My grandmother asked the other night "why is she [Amber] crying?" I just said to her 'no reason at all, she just cries over everything." It's rediculous how much she cries! I don't think I've ever seen someone cry *that* much!

I also admire Jameka for sticking to her principals, but don't know how much it'll help her, but at least they all know that if she says something they know that she's telling the truth and won't go back on her word. Couldn't believe how greedy Dustin was last night...taking both the trip and the money instead of trying to win the POV. If he was serious about keeping the nominations the same, he would have passed both up.

I also like Dick except his cursing (although I think Nick's cursing is much more frequent), because like you said, you know where he stands and won't take anything from anyone. And I also keep watching...even if you don't really like the players, it's just one of those 'addictions' that once you start, you *have* to find out how it ends!

Nick got the boot. Amber is still crying and crying. She claims to have never lied to anyone but, we all know she lied to Nick.
HOH was awarded to Daniele. They had to hang upside down like bats while white stuff (crow do-do) fell on them.
They all ate pizza while Mr. Dick, class personified, burped and keep saying how the pepperoni should make him Fart. What a class guy! Sure wish he were my Dad.......I would take him to school for show and tell.
Amber continues to cry.........Jen is trying to make small talk and it is going no where. Dustin is helping Amber cry and cry.

What a mess!

What is up with Amber????? She told Dustin that he when he took Jen off the block that he could backdoor Nick. Then she is on Nick's bed crying and telling him she loved him. He also told her he loved her. At first I thought Oh, I bet these two are a couple and are working together but I guess theyweren't . I just couldn't imagine Amber getting so upset since I hadn't seen her around Nick that much he was always with Danielle. (which IMO is wrong if she has a boyfriend so that makes me think she was even using Nick). Then when Nick got voted off Amber says her goodybye speech and told Nick she did know that he would be put up and to please forgive her and cried and cried and said she loved him so much. I don't get it. I think she is playing everyone in the house with her crying episodes and she should goooooo.


Also I know Dick speaks his mind (although with a lot of cursing) but I don't like it when he really abuses someone for instance pouring the tea on Jen's head. Probably most would like to do that, lol but I don't think even she deserves treatment like that. That's just childish...
I can't believe she doesn't say anything to him, maybe she is afraid of him.

Right now again, I don't care much for any of them. I read somewhere last year that after the BBallStars they said there may not be another BB so if this is the best they are going to do I think they have done a poor job. Bring back DR. Will, lol.


I think Nick's showmance with Danielle didn't help him because I think some of the girls were jealous and I don't think he had his mind in the game that much so it is his own fault. Maybe if he and the other guys would have stayed in the alliance with Kail they would still be there??? Just a thought.... If Danielle is HOH I bet Jen will be on the block again because last night Danielle called her out about always picking on her....

Yeah, I'm glad Danielle is HOH, they didn't show that on the regular tv version. I know Dick is crude, rude and tattooed but he is about the only personality on the show worth watching, he at least keeps me from falling asleep.

I CAN NOT STAND watching Amber cry anymore, strategy or not. They need to get rid of her ASAP, along with Jen who is so self centered she should be embarrassed. Her parents must be humiliated!

My son left the room again when the show came on, he told me I'm an idiot for watching

I definately agree about Dick keeping the show interesting and worth watching. Yes, what he did to Jen was pretty childish, but I know I couldn't help but laugh when I saw it! It's just something that was unexpected, especially from Dick...but I think Jen said it best last night when Julie asked her about it....she said that nothing that Dick does in the house surprises her and they've all come expect the unexpected from Dick.



Amber better get her emotions in check and soon, because everybody is getting sick of watching her cry over *everything* and *nothing!* And Jen...it wouldn't surprise me if her parents *are* humiliated after what she did to a picture of her and her mom that BB chose when she was HOH...she said she couldn't believe they picked *that* particular picture of her, and I think she actually took it down because she hated it, even though it was the only picture of her and her mom that was in the room!

I still think that part of this show is staged. Amber's attack on Eric the other night is one example. How many times have you seen all the players sitting in the living room at one time except at eviction night. There they all were sitting in the living room on the couches and Amber walks in, hmmmmm. why wasn't she in the living room to start with? Then after that big blow up she is "friends" with Eric again. I know it is just a game but I think part of it is "set up" and it seems to be more obvious to me in this season.

I was hoping that Eric would get evicted and he would have if Dustin had kept his word to Amber. I don't like what he did to Amber and then he is making money while playing the other house guests.

I really hope Danielle gets evicted this week. I am sick of her whining and saying she doesn't like anyone there and no one likes her. She is getting on my nerves more than Amber, lol. I am sure Dick will go home because he is making sure every one dislikes him more than they already do to save Danielle. I don't like his attitude but like the fact that he does say what he means and he is trying to protect his daughter.

Will have to see what happens but I hope Danielle goes home. It wouldn't surprise me if Jen didn't win this thing because then CBS would only have to give her half the money, lol....

Who here wants to bet that the AP votes will go to Dustin?! I know I went and voted to get Dustin evicted, mainly because it's more fun watching Eric 'squirm' than anything else, especially when the AP vote doesn't go the way he wants it to. It also makes everyone else in the house paranoid...Jessica, on last night's show after Eric had to give her the silent treatment (which he couldn't do), was reeling thinking that both Eric and Dustin had betrayed her and have their own alliance. America is really screwing with Eric and his gameplan! The idea of America's player might have started out as a good one by CBS, but when the viewers started to realize that Eric would like the 'vote' to go one way, they'd do just the opposite of what Eric was hoping. Actually makes it kind of interesting... especially when America makes him do things to his closest allies in the house (like Jessica!)

I don't usually vote for these type of things, but this time I couldn't resist. And yep, I voted to get rid of Dustin *L* It will be interesting to see what happens. I agree with previous posters who say this season 'looks' really stage! But how BORING will the house be with Dick gone!!

OMG....I just can't believe that dick has gotten way with everything that he has. I know that I couldn't hold back the way others have when he has attacked them. I know it is a game but his harassment has gone over and above game play. I feel sorry for the people that he is attacking. I know it will be less dramatic if dick get's sent home but it seems that most the shows are centered around him so who knows how it would be if he went home....which I hope does happen. Man...I would hate to be stuck int he sequestered house alone with him...lol

Well, the other day when he was banging the pots and pans in Dustin's ear and all the harrassing he was doing was basically just his strategy to annoy all the other houseguests so that they'd be rattled for the POV competition. Remember back when they were doing the one POV and Zach was harrassing Dick to make him fall off, well, Dick was basically doing the same thing, except Dick was doing it before the comp. instead of during the comp. Also, he wanted to make sure that if neither he or Dani won POV, that they'd be so annoyed with him that they'd vote *him* out instead of Dani, who was really Jessica's target .

Pam ~ Like you, I usually don't vote, but this time I just couldn't resist. It was just the past 2 seasons that I voted on Dancing with the Stars...I have yet to vote on American Idol, but I have voted this season on America's Got Talent. First I voted for The Duttons, the country singers and the ventriloquist...last night after the finals, I put all my votes in for the ventriloquist.

From what I've read on the live feed updates, tonight's episode should be *very* interesting. Apparently there's some kind of twist that either happened last night or sometime today, because the HGs got a visit from the Mad Hatter repeating some phrases, including "A snitch in time saves nine", a pirate on stilts, a Barbershop Quartet, 3 rabbits w/ 6 POVs, and a living statue! They also said that the night production crew arrived early. Dustin thinks that two people will be evicted tonight based on one phrase that was said, and there has to be a week with a double eviction, unless they're going to pull a "Survivor" and instead of 2 people going to the finals, 3 go.

I would not want to be in the sequestered house w/Dick!!

The talk at work this year about BB has people also commenting on how
much is staged this season?


TC

Well, we know some of it is staged because of Eric being America's Player, and BB has already picked the tasks, America just votes for who they want Eric to do each task on, so that's basically staging the show right there.

Also, apparently it seems like America's vote for eviction went to Dustin, since Eric has made a deal with Dick & Dani to keep Dick in the house. Apparently Zach has said that he'll vote whatever way Jessica wants him to. Also, on the BB newsgroup, they said 6:47 is an important number in tonight's show.

I do not understand Amber at all. First she tells Jameka that she won't cry anymore, etc and then she tells her if they offer her a deal it more or less would be on her terms. Then she starts her "crying" episodes and then goes to Dani and tells her all that she will give up if Dani takes her off the block. Even swore on her daughter's life (which I don't like that) and she said she wasn't going to do that anymore. So my guess is that Jen will go home because Jameka does not pose a threat at this time because she can't compete in HOH competitions for a few more weeks.

I would love to see them all go, lol. I don't care for any of them. I am beginning to like Jessica a little but I wish Eric would be sent home. I either think Dani is playing her dad or they were in on it from the get go.... I just don't trust her....

Have to wait and see what happens tonight. As I've said before I still watch, lol.... don't know why but I do...

I bet Jen will go tonight...if not tonight, then definately next week. I don't get the live feeds, but do keep up with the BB newsgroup, and they're saying that Jen broke the rules by destroying Dick's cigarettes, and then she ate food, even though she's on slop. From what I've read, if she's still here next week, she's not allowed to compete for HOH, she'll be up on the block and not allowed to compete for the POV...so her days are definately numbered, if what she's telling everyone is true.

There is an update to that: instead of what you said, they are giving her a penalty vote for eviction, as the other way was interfering with the game. Just have to watch to see if it's true!

Looks like the penalty vote was true, since she was evicted 6-0 (with the penalty vote).

Tonight is eviction night and I hope it is Amber. I am so tired of hearing her crying and feeling sorry for herself. Next I am ready for Jameka to go too.

At this point of the game I am hoping Dick will win.,lol. I know he is obxnious and mean but you have to admit he hasn't "played" anyone. He lets people know exactly where he stands and sometimes that pays off in the long run from the jury house.

Dani is getting on my nerves too with her whining and boo hooing and how she hates the house. Then go...... I still think she is playing her dad big time. Last week she told Julie that she thought she would have a good chance against her dad if they were in the final two. You never know.

Wouldn't it be funny if Zach who has basically done nothing throughout the game won???? I doubt if that will happen but it would be a hoot..

Eric and Jess. come on... he acts like it pains him to be around her. Maybe he is just shy....

Whatever happens tonight I know I will keep watching, lol but I do hope that Amber goes. I was glad to see Amber beat Dani on the Power of 10 even though she only won $1000 but I think Dani thought she was sure to win and then came back to the house and cried when she found out Nick would have been the one to help her. What happened to her boyfriend????????

I was wondering about Daniele's boyfriend too. I also hope Amber goes, as I never felt sorry for her... she knew what she was getting into when she applied for the show, and will be famous for 15 minutes when she's done, so...

I don't want Zach to win as I don't like floaters. And Jameka is just as bad. I'm hoping for ED to win, or at least make the final 2, as I love his personality. He's the most fun to watch out of all the seasons!

I also want Amber to go. My grandmother's nicknamed her "crybaby" because all she does is cry cry cry! Even on The Power of Ten she cried!
ED is the 'character' of the house this season...he does speak his mind and hasn't lied to anyone...he keeps his word, and tells it like he sees it. A lot of people were outraged when he 'burned' Jen's finger with his cigarette, *but* she kept swatting at it...when you swat that close to a lit cigarette, you're bound to get burned, so that was really Jen's fault, not Dick's. It would be fun to see someone win who played the game truthfully instead of someone who 'plays' everyone in order to make it to the finals.

As for Danielle's boyfriend, from what I've heard, it sounded like their relationship was on rocky ground when she went into the house. I don't know how people find some of this stuff out, but from what someone posted on the BB newsgroup, her boyfriend was doing a non-paying internship that lasts for at least a couple years and he wasn't helping to pay the bills and the lease on their apartment was up, so he moved back in with his parents. Dani was the one paying the bills and even spending money on him, so I'm sure if the lease was up and he couldn't afford to pay the rent that he lost the apartment. Don't know what Dani's going to do when she gets out of the house if she doesn't have anywhere to go, unless she moves back in with her grandmother until she finds another apartment. I don't know exactly how much, if any of this is true, but it would explain why she'd be more upset at not seeing Nick than her boyfriend.

I am so glad that Amber's gone!! And the goodbye speeches were SO prepped by the producers, with ED's "No more tears" right to Jameka where Amber started balling. Wish they would have done it the other way! And 78% of America wanting her out, I bet a bunch of people are cheering!

I could be wrong here but I don't think Jen got burned by Dick's cigarette. I think it was just ash becuase when Jameka took her to put something on it they wiped it off and there was no burn. I could be wrong. Anyway she was the one swating at his cigarettes and what did they do about her destroying the cartons. Did they give Dick more cigarettes?

I am sooooooo happy that Amber is gone. This is the first eviction that I actually clapped and cheered at the TV when Julie made the announcement. I don't think people really thought as much of Amber as she thought they did. She told Julie she thought she would be a threat if she were in the final two and that's why they got her out.

Has anyone noticed or is it me that Dick has seemed to "mellow" out a little bit? His goodbye speech to Amber was almost nice, lol.

If he wins he will probably give the money to his "whining" daughter. Sometimes by the way she acts I don't know if all the trouble between them was all Dick's fault.... I don't know the story and as far as I am concerend it can stay between them but did you notice when they had a spat the other day that Jessica and Eric said real or not real. I think they are either playing together or Dani is using her dad big time. I still don't trust her.....

I hope the next to go is Jameka. I think right now the two I would like to see in the final two is Dick and Eric.... that would be interesting....

BB gave him more cigarettes after Jen destroyed them.

Yes, Dick has seemed to mellow out a little. Don't know what happened between him and Dani, but from what I've heard, she was the one who didn't want to have any contact with him, because he did try to e-mail her several times even before they went into the house and she would just ignore them. Don't know, but they're saying over on the BB newsgroup that her mother is even *worse* than Dick is....and I don't think Dani's had any contact with her either.

I'd also like to see Jameka go. I've heard that Zach wants to backdoor Eric, but haven't heard anything else

Is everyone still watching BB*? I figured Jessica was going to be voted out last night, but Eric was a surprise to me. Sure wish they would have gotten rid of Jameka, no one will be able to beat her in the end, even though she hasn't earned the winning position, everyone seems to like her

It will be interesting to see if Zach and Jameka team up now even though he couldn't beat her either, so don't think that would be a smart move.

I was sorry to see jessica get beat out last night. I would have liked to have seen daniele and dick get outsmarted and thrown out. I know that they have played a good game but I just don't like how cocky they are about everything. I hope that something shakes up the house next week but at this point I really think it will be dick and daniele at the end and daniele will win the whole thing...it sure is an addictive show.

I think there is an eviction tonight and I hope it is Danielle. After the way the talked to Zach and just were soooooo sure that they would win the POV I hope one of them gets voted out and I hope it is Dani. She is such a whiner and a user. She gets so mad at her dad and talks smack about him to other people but when he wins HOH she is there hugging and kissing him. She is using him....IMO. I am not a big fan of Jameka or Zach but I just hope either Dick or Dani get voted out tonight.

Tonight is the night!!!! IMO I think Dick will win. He was a nasty mouthed person but I think he will win and in a way I hope he does. I don't like the way he played the game but he didn't try and hide anything and I don't think he lied or used anyone. I think he did play the game the best if the jury votes that way.

I have watched just a few minutes of the BB8 after dark on showtime and Danielle is soooooo bratty. She and Dick mentioned that they would be going on a trip to Europe and she said "Separately". Dick looked very hurt when she said this. I think Dick meant all the family would be going but she acted like she didn't want to be around him. It doesn't seem to bother her that he got her this far. She whined and complined almost the whole ten minutes I watched, lol.

Then the other night she was upset because Dick beat her in the 2nd HOH competition. She said it was embarrasing. Who cares it got her to the final two.

Guess we will just have to wait and see but I think Dick will win.

Yea, Dick won. I didn't care for his mouth at times (lots of times), but he definately came to the game with a strategy and it worked. As far as people saying Dani rode his coattails, I disagree. She was the best competitor in the house, and deserved to take 2nd!

Ok, now what to do at night! Maybe I'll try Survivor this year *L*

I agree that Dani was a competivie player but it didn't hurt that Dick was looking out for her either because I think she would have gone home a few times if it hadn't been for him. The time the two of them were on the block together and he took her off instead of himself. I think she would have gone home that week.

I heard her say in the diary room one week that she hoped she was up against her dad in the final two because more or less she would win because people didn't like him.

I don't know why but she just got on the wrong side of me. Even last night after they showed the questions from the jury house she got on him about one of the answers he had given. Dick just went outside and said Now what have I done to make her mad.......I just feel she was a whinny brat, lol.

I hope if they have a BB9 they will do better casting for the show. Although I got addicted to the show I certainly didn't really care that much about the players this year.

I really do think Dick will share the money with his family and I am not sure that Dani would have. JMO....

Luckily we stayed in the motel that night instead of going to a show in Branson, and I saw [most of] the finale. I read somewhere that Dick is also going to use part of the money to put Danielle thru school, should she decide to go back. I was talking to a lady in one of the gift shops in Branson who handles discount ticket sales, and she was 100% sure Dani was going to win...I wasn't quite sure who would win, considering everything.
