'Big Brother 8' - 7/23 Show Live-Blogged From the East Coast

Jackie's TV Blog, BB8, Big Brother 8

The show has started here on the East Coast. So far, it's still in a recap mode. This entry will be updated as the show airs, so please forgive any typos and misspellings. Feel free to jump with your thoughts on tonight's show! And, hi West Coasters...!

Kail doesn't think she's said anything personal to hurt Dick. @@

She confronts Mike, but he did tell her that he was changing it! We saw it, but I guess he didn't make it clear enough to her. She keeps telling us how cowardly and weak-willed the men in the game are.

Time for Dick's HOH room. You can tell he's thrilled. Aw, Daniele was such an adorable child in her picture! Amber cries about how beautiful the pictures are. Dick tells us he won't be in the room much as he wants to keep an eye on the Mrs. Robinson alliance. Kail spills the beans about being in an alliance with Nick and Zach. Dick points out that she's betraying her alliance.

Kail told Dick that she thinks he's going on a personal "vendenna" against her. Earlier on the feeds, Jen mentioned an aJENda, but at least she knows the difference!

Now Eric and Jen are wrestling. Eric is laughing so hard that he could do better, but then she nailed him. Right in the...!

Now they're talking Hot Five Guys and Nick's lisdt sounds a bit non-heterosexual. What a shock and a surprise! He tells us he's happy with his won sexuality. His list is guys he would date if he was gay. Daniele thinks he's just joking around. Yeah, right! He's telling her now how she has usurped his top five girls list. She tells us about her boyfriend.

Now they're airing the Dick/Daniele talk I told you about a few days ago -- the one in which she's upset about being torn between her boyfriend and Nick and wants to go home.

Dick is being so good with her. Why, he sounds fatherly even!

Now he's all teary-eyed telling us his reaction about her coming to him. He's talking to Dustin about it. Thankfully, Dustin is wearing NO shirt, not that awful v-necked grey one!

Ack, Jen is wearing her cut-down Jenitard. The girls are talking about the slop. They're not happy campers. Amber is crying about Jameka not liking to eat slop. Jen doesn't care because she hasn't been on it. Me, me, me!

The guys are pigging out. Dick set off Jameka when he mentioned starving kids in Africa and he thought she took it racially. She told him that she wanted to point out that Africa isn't the only place. She's very worried about being the only black person in the house and cried to him about it. Dick told her he loves her to death and all is okay. He is really understanding that she's in an unusual spot in the house.

Food comp time! Mission Inpastabowl. Two giant slides to slide into giant bowls of pasta. Earning for the entire house. Buried in the bowls are meatballs, pairs of HG must find matching meatballs and bring them to the scoring station to win that food item for the week.

They only have five minutes. Halibut. Dessert. Sweetbreads... Jessica thinks it's any kind of bread that tastes good and isn't normal bread. @@

Eggs. BBQ grill. Bananas. Lobster tail. Chicken. Cucumbers... Jen and Kail got, the others not happy. Beer. Juice. Chips. Cereal. Then they had a huge pasta fight. Heh... Daniele didn't know what sweetbreads are, either. Dick announced that it's cow pancreas. I prefer to call them variety meats.

It's time for Eric's America's Choice. He wants it to be Kail or Jen. We chose Jen, so he campaigns to Dick. He's pushing the "Jen tried to break up you and Daniele" point of view... he's optimistic.

Oh. My. God. Kail is ignorant of real life. She asked Dustin if Robin of Batman and Robin and Barney the Dinosaur are gay. Does this woman live under a rock or what?

Zach is talking to Dick. Dick tells him he knows all about him. Zach is doublespeaking now. Dick points out that he can never trust him. Zach tells up he won't betray Dick. Hmmm... (I also find it a bit disturbing that she's talking about fictional characters as if they're real and thinks Dustin knows them on a personal level or something. How odd is that?)

Now it's time for Nick to talk to Dick; he spills the entire beans on the alliance (Mrs. R) from the second day. Now Dick tells us he has worries that Nick is playing Daniele. Dick says the "I'll kill you" if you're playing her line that I told you about a few days ago.

America's Player -- Eric is a secret vandal this week. Whose property should he covertly target?

Nomination time. Kail has that pinched look on her face. Dick tells them it's about lies, deception, scheming, breaking up alliances, and the people who tried to get him out...

Key order:
Happy birthday Jameka, Jessica, Amber, Eric, Daniele, Dustin, Nick, Zach, Mike. On the block are Kail and Jen. Dick says he nominated Jen because she put him on the block. Kail lied to him and tried to deceive him. He'll do anything he can to make sure she goes home. She nodded her head no as he said she lied. "You can shake your head as much as you want. You lied to me."

Jen doesn't feel like she's nominated. But it's all about her, right?

I still cannot believe that Mike & Kail don't remember him telling her that he was switching his vote, but she should still vote for Dick. Jackie, send them your video!!

This has been bugging me from day one. What the hell kinda name is Kail anyway? Does anyone know??

Ooohhh, Kail, just shut-up now. Oh, Kail, Oh, Kail, Oh, Kail.

Dustin, I also hope that you can open some doors for Kail, starting with the front door of the BB house as she exits this week.

I wonder if they got Jen from the same robot company Julie came from?

Her behavior has been bugging me and I finally figured it out. She really has no feelings! She has no sympathy, no empathy, no anger, no fear, no love, no hate, no anything! She's just totally self absorbed!

LOL, robotic pretty much sums up Jen. I think that Eric should target Jen, hopefuly her shirts. LOL.

Sweetbreads are either the thymus gland or pancreas. If you order them in France would be thymus gland.

Loving it!

".... I pretty much suck at this... ya' know... feeling bad for... like, people. But I think I did feel something... I don't know what though."

OK, I'm changing my previous vote: Jen makes better TV than Kail.

KALE is a leafy green veggie, and also a lovely ornamental plant. KAIL is a ridiculous name for a human.

That was a great show... still glad I didn't pay for the feeds this season though; this bunch just isn't interesting enough for all night watching. Where's Janelle, Howie, Dr. Will when you need 'em?

Nite-nite, 3AM wake-up alarm for me.

Yours in Manchester, Robin

Orkmommy, 8:59PM - Right on! I was thinking the same exact thing. She does seem to be an emotional cripple. Must be why Boogie is pals with her. Her statement at the end also sounded emotionless, "I'm still here, I'm not gone, so it feels the same." Notice, too, how Kail always diverts her eyes whenever speaking to the camera in the DR? A big sign of dishonesty, it seems to me. . 2 And Nancy, YES, wouldn't it be fantastic to have Eric vandalize Jen's shirts. BURN THEM!!!

Agree with to have Eric vandalize Jen's shirts....

On second thought, she would have to wear her bikinis even more..(as Jackie said)"MY EYES!!! MY EYES!!!

I thought Bb took Jen's "Jen" shirts

Jackie S. said...

ORKMommy - Love the Jen/Chenbot correlation!

Anon @ - They took all of her clothes for the week she had to wear the unitard. She has them back now.

Anonymous said...

Jen was wearing one tonight.

I know it's been said before, but I think it bears repeating. The BB producers need to spice up the America's choice. Vandalizing someone's stuff??? That's drama???Here's an idea, we, the bloggers, could give them some great suggestions on America's choice. What's your ideas for AC, bloggers??

Anonymous said...

I placed a bunch of votes for him to vandalize Jen. I figure nobody will care if he targets her. If he has to target someone like Jameka or Jessica, it's a surefire way of getting him a nomination.

Have a good night all. I'm outta here! Thanks for the updates Jackie!

I don't even like the task for the America's Player today. In all honesty, vandalism is a crime.

Anonymous said...

Another stupid task for AP! Are they trying to get him kicked off the show?? First the climbing in bed with somebody who might have cleaned his clock and now vandalizing somebody's things! That person could get pretty peeo'dif he gets caught or is the idea to NOT get caught doing it?? I agree if he has the chance to burn those shirts of Jen's he should ,but only if he gets to take the bathing suits too! I'm sure she would gladly give him her picture off the wall....lol!

You just get this visual of a sign in Jen's head that says...this space for rent..cause there is nothing there!! When something comes out of her mouth tha actually makes sense,I just think of that adage about a roomful of monekys and typewriters,everybody gets lucky once in a while. I don't think she's smart!

I found myself more annoyed than entertained tonight...
Jen admires herself in a spoon.
Kail would only be able to recognize a gay man if he had on his makeup!?!?!
BB's idea of stirring things up is vandalism.
Entertained, or annoyed, I'm still hooked for another season.

Nick is totally playing Dani; I would like to hear the results of Dustin's gaydar when pointed in Nick's direction.

AlbGlinka said...

Good question from the commenter about Dustin's gaydar on Nick, although it'd be tough without the big purple costume or cape!

My heart went out to Jameka tonight. I totally understood her reaction to that statement of Dick's about people starving in Africa. For someone dealing with the strain of being the only (obvious?) person of color in the house, Jameka is handling herself remarkably well. I wish she had a confidante with a little more empathy who could understand that position.

jackieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee is your besttttttt writing in here or on tv squad?????
thanks anyways, love ya
patttttttttttt

dla said...

Whoa!! Watching Sho Too, and things have gotten HEAVY tonight!! Tons of emotion, too many tears and lotsa shouting!

This may have been a great night to have the feeds!

It looks like Danielle may snap. She is just a kid. ;(

Steff said...

Darn it, I missed most of the show Sunday...people kept phoning me!! How dare you call me when BB8 is on, go away!! Ring ring...grrrrr.

Anon 10:58, rotflmao...yes vandilism is a crime in the real world, and lying is amoral, however this is a GAME!!!!

Jen not feeling any different..."i'm still here", good lord I hope not for long, but that green veggie has got to go 1st. Is one of Kails businesses a pumpkin patch? I realize she did not name herself Kail, but for heavens sake, questioning Dustin if Barney and Robin are gay??? I wet myself, sorry I know, TMI, but I did it again with Jessica's sweetbread comment...poor girl is expecting Cinn-a-buns!!!

Bummed I missed Eric and Jen wrestling. She got him where? j/k

No live feeds so I missed all the nudity today, cracked me up when I read Zach was a disappointment. LOL

I enjoy all the comments, ORKmommy, I predict when you get all grown up,(over 40) or in Kailese growed up, you will be just like Jackie, full of wit and charm, and making money doing it, legally.

Peace out good people.

Oddly enough the whole "Batman & Robin" thing isn't entirely off base. It was in fact an old theory put forward by Dr. Frederick Wertham in his book Seduction of the Innocent. He pointed out "signs" that Batman and Robin were homosexuals, such as them living alone in a house without any women present on the scene, and the fact that there were always flowers in the house. In fact that was one of the reasons for the creation of the "Aunt Harriet" character in the TV series. By the way, in Wertham's logic, Wonder Woman was a Lesbian who was into S&M, which wasn't entirely off the mark - Dr. William Moulton Marston who created the character liked to see women tie each other up.

Don't know where Kail got the whole "Barney" thing except maybe by confusing Barney with Tinky Winky.

THey are only iron on letters on her shirts as she made them herself. Eric can pull her name off all of them!!!!

Steff - Thank you for the kind words. It's funny you mention being like Jackie because I totally want to be just like her when I grow up!!
