*Big Brother 8* -SPOILER-
Edited on Fri Aug-17-07 08:57 AM by underpants
If you have it taped get out of this thread NOW!
























Dustin got voted out. Once again smug overconfidence turns on a houseguest (have they ever watched this show?). An amazing turn around by the Evil one. :bounce::evilgrin:

This was clearly all set in motion by "the people" telling Eric to vote Dustin out. He hinted at the fact that he must be aware that people either love the Evil Dick or really hate him and Jameka and Amber and Dustin. I think it is more of the latter. So Eric had to do something or his vote was going to stick out like a sore thumb again.

I didn't get to see the actual announcement due to local coverage of a massive thunderstorm.


Speaking of Eric-DUDE at least get something off of Jessica. She is DYING for some lovin' for crying out loud. As annoying as she is/has been she does have quite the bod. Good lord dude at least TRY!!! :silly: I don't mean this as castin aspertions on her-she just strikes me as the kind of girl who NEVER doesn't have a boyfriend and I mean that just in that she always has someone she is at least "seeing".

Oh and he has clearly thrown two HoH competitions. I don't know if he can't be HoH but he, with Julie Chen's help, has avoided it so far. Chen just about outed him when she pointed out that he didn't let her finish reading a question a few weeks ago (more on her below).

Jameka is PISSED! :bounce:

Funny thing is that Zach is now coming off as wise and not in too bad of a position hell at least he is still IN the house. I would suspect that Dick and Jen are now either totally in cahoots or at least the attention is off her...maybe not hard to say.

Julie Chen has to be the worst host/cue card reader I have ever seen. She actually paused when talking about HER SHOW the CBS morning show.....tomorrow....on ....CBS. I was cracking up laughing. Then she flat out cuts off Amber so she can READ her closing bit about afterhours and the morning show again. :rofl: My two favorites were when she read out the answer to a question (really screwed Eric over) "Nick" -everyone in the backyard caught it as she was doing it---and when she talked to the houseguests for about 2 minutes while they were all doing the hand-to-ear WE CAN'T HEAR YOU gesture :rofl: It is good to be married to the President of the network I guess.

1. Daniele/Nick stuff....
So, in her new HoH room there are NO pics of her boyfriend Kris, and she got no letter from him this time. Daniele has not seemed upset about it. She talked a LOT about her letter from Nick. I think she was very impressed by it. Amber was miffed that Nick did not mention her in the letter, yet Zach got a shout out.

Heee.

Now... Daniele and Dick WANT Jen gone this week - though, I think they may flip on this - I don't see it as wise. I think they need to focus on Jamesus and the emotional bag of tears. They cut the deal with Jess and Eric, so they seem safe this week.

Oh, and - last night Eric danced naked for Jess, Amber, Jen and Jamesus?? Ewwwww....

2. Ewwwwwww
I am going over to Youtube to see if I can find the actually announcement moment.

Eric- the funny thing about him is, good for him and all, he seems to have a selfconfidence that for lack of a better term is completely unwarranted. I don't mean this as nasty but I took one look at him (sorry but people do that) and just figured he was a bandgeek or someone who had had a rough time in high school and later and was probably not all that much to worry about. He seems to have had a very different experience. He is a great player and the "America's player" thing is actually holding him back.

3. Dustin's face was PRICELESS!!!
You can tell he was sure Julie was going to say "Dustin, you're safe". His eyes almost popped right out of his swollen head!! :rofl:

I agree about Eric. He was pissed when he saw that the vote was for Dustin, but he did play it well. And, in reality, I think that was the best move for him. I think the D/D alliance can only help him and I know he needed to break away from Amber and Jamesus.

19. I LOVED the look on Dustin's face. Loved it, loved it, loved it.
He was arrogant, smug, smarmy, and a complete liar. He SO deserved the boot this week. I'm sure Joe absolutely loved every minute of it.

If Eric is smart, he will definitely put himself and Jessica in an alliance with Dick and Daniele. The four of them would make short work of Wahhhmber and Jameka, and Zach and Jen are floaters. Best to align with a stronger set.

12. Okay stop it
:rofl:

Nick looks like someone else but I can't quite get it.

Dick IS a Tommy Lee impersonator and Keith Richards body double --he claims

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Brother_8_(US)#Dick

He has stated that he has dated Jerri Manthey of Survivor fame, and although he broke up with her, he says they remain friends. He has also stated he played Keith Richards' body double in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End.

I laughed so loud I scared my cat. I'm still laughing just thinking about that comparison. I need to bookmark this in case I need a laugh again soon.

20. Joe actually reminds me of my sister.
He could easily pass for a member of my family!

In a way I feel bad because I liked Dustin so much at the beginning of the season. The last 2 to 3 weeks have changed the way I feel about him and I am happy he was sent packing.

15. I know. I was totally rooting for Dustin at first.
But, kinda like Joe said... his true colors came out and his arrogance got the best of him. At least Joe was forthright about his prickishness. And.. Joe was a laugh-riot!!

23. Joe was pretty entertaining, doing his little pot-stirring.
I would have liked to see him stick around longer.

18. Hmmm.. interesting
Oh well, I'll watch anyway. It's like watching a trainwreck sometimes.

I do think they should end America's Player at the halfway point. Eric's accomplished enough tasks that he deserves the money, and he should have his own strategy now.

22. I liked him too, but it turns out Joe was right about him all along.
I've grown to dislike him intensely, and I was SO HAPPY to see him out the door!

27. I had to play it over and over.
I'm just now getting into the show. Every year my huzz watches it from the start. I can't for several weeks. But I'm getting into it now.

17. I've changed yet again on this show
Edited on Sat Aug-18-07 01:42 PM by mvd
Now I'm enthusiastically rooting for Dick and Daniele. Too many others play the game pretty stupidly and get tiring. With a lot of prodding by the DR, but it IS Big Brother. They mess with their minds. I wonder if they influence the game so much that it winds up hurting the producers, though.

24. So glad that Dustin is gone...
Edited on Sat Aug-18-07 04:32 PM by Blue_In_AK
He was SO-O-O-O-O obnoxious there toward the end. The look on his face at the eviction was priceless. I'm hoping for Daniele to win. She's a lot smarter than people give her credit for, and I think she's played the game as honestly as possible. I can't figure out why those other girls (Amber and Jameka) hate her so much.

25. *** New SPOILERS ***
As expected, Daniele put Amber and Jameka up for eviction. Then Daniele won POV. POV competition also included a prize for 1st and 2nd place - these 2 each get a trip outside the house. Amber came in 2nd.

There's speculation that Daniele could bring Amber off the block and backdoor Jen. I personally think this would be unwise. She should get rid of either Amber or Jameka to further commit Jess and Eric and keep Jen and Zach on their side.

I guess we'll see.

26. I know Daniele wants Jen gone this week
but I agree with you that it would be unwise for her to take one of her original picks off the block. I think the order was supposed to be Jen, Amber, Jameka -- taking out Jameka last since she can't run for HOH for a while. I think she should leave the picks like they are, let the chips fall where they may and maybe they can get Jen out next week.
