'Big Brother 8' - Sunday (So Far) Live Feeds Report - 7/29

<--- Dustin goes for the mandana with the nasty grey v-neck look as he talks with Zach.

Zach thinks this eviction would be the perfect opportunity to get Dick out of the house. He also thinks that if he himself goes up against Kail, he (Zach) would go home. Zach also thinks that Kail has "made a deal with the Devil" -- Dick. Dustin isn't committing anything to Zach as they talk, though.

He SO needs a fashion designer. I'm not one to talk, but I refrain from television appearances!

Here are the day's happenings so far from inside that Big Brother House of No Guts No Glory:

• Amber cried. Feeling betrayed by Dustin's doings in the POV competition, told Jameka it will be herself, Eric, Jameka, and Jessica in the Final Four. Well, I can see possibilities for three of them in there, but tough luck Amber. She has to wear thin enough on the others well before then to get booted. Please!
• Daniele thinks she should tell Nick he's going home after Monday's POV ceremony.
• Kail thinks Jessica will never win a comp but has a great strategy -- eats, sleeps, drinks, and doesn't make enemies. Kail wishes she had thought of that first.
• Jen thinks that if Jessica wins a HOH, she won't put her up because she wants to use her outside of the house as a modeling contact.
• Jen said that Vanna White's house (where she is a nanny) has an indoor theater, maid quarters, and a wine cellar.
  
• Kail thinks Dick is wealthy, Jen thinks he isn't. (But does Jen know Kail owns a town?)
• Jen thinks NY is dirty "like a third-world country." (Argh! Just when I was sort of kind of liking her! NYC is SO much cleaner than it was in the 60s and 70s, so much safer than it was in those decades and the 80s, and DIVERSITY in cultures does NOT make for a "third world country." Grr.)
• Kail actually asked Jen if Vanna White and her family go to church regularly. Whose business would that be? Jen shouldn't have answered the question, but told her they didn't -- that it's hard for a celebrity to do something like that.
• Nick asked Dustin if he thought Jameka would use the veto. Dustin said she's a woman of her word and he's sure she will use it.
• Nick asked him if he was putting Zach on the block in Jen's place. Dustin told him he was pretty sure he would.
• Eric thinks that they're all in the house because they failed the pre-screen psychological testing. Heh.
• Eric tried to work his ways in getting in on the good side of Daniele. He actually wanted to get her to stop from telling Nick that he will be voted out. But, it's all about trust, right?
• Dustin told Zach he'd put up either him, Dick, Daniele, or Nick if Jameka uses the veto. (Looks like Nick still -- it's just no way is Dustin telling either Nick or Zach beforehand!)

Those are the major events from the day so far. Please stop back as I live-blog the show tonight as it airs here on the East Coast. It starts at 8 PM, bring your umbrellas as it's been very stormy here today. Oh, bring your hip-waders, too. Not only for the floodwaters, but for what the HG and show producers will be spreading about!

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds/TV Squad Update

My latest post on TV Squad has some of the overnight events covered. Stop by and make some noise ... or cry if you must!

I'll be updating here again later today after they wake up.

Make My Pants Purple! - This Week on 'The Late Show with David Letterman' - July 30-Aug. 3, 2007

What's this? Yet another week of fresh pants ahead of us?

Why, yes it is! I know Dave will probably take another week off soon, but it's not this one. Cool, I say.

Here are the scheduled guests this week as listed on the CBS website:

• Monday, July 30: Andy Samberg promoting Hot Rod, musical guests The Bravery (CD is The Sun and the Moon), and (get this) PBA bowling on 53rd Street! I think the bowling will be the hit of this show.
• Tuesday, July 31: Senator Joe Biden (author of Promises to Keep), actor Seth Rogen promoting Superbad, musical guest Gogol Bordello (CD is Super Taranta!). Um. Okay.
• Wednesday, August 1: Matt Damon (The Bourne Ultimatum), comedian Jeff Altman, musical guest Angelique Kidjo whose CD is Djin Djin. Djokay, djokay.
• Thursday, August 2: Al Franken, Jackie Chan promoting Rush Hour 3 and Michael Buble. Sorry, I'm not on the Buble train. Give me the real deal, please.
• Friday, August 3: Glenn Close (Damages), Judd Apatow (Superbad) and musical guests Chris and Rich Robinson (from the Black Crowes) whose CD is Brothers of a Feather: Live at the Roxy.

Well. I don't think this week is going to be one for the records for me. Thankfully, the Top Ten lists and general Dave tomfoolery will save the week.

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds Report - Into Saturday Evening, 7/28

Now, you know that graphic artist Zoetawny couldn't let the JenBot cry without capturing an image, right?

And Jameka won POV, eh?

Meanwhile, it was muggy and bleh here in the Northeast. I hate muggy and bleh.

I may have to cry!

Here are the happenings from inside that Big Brother House of 96 Tears (yeah, I'm aging myself with that one ... you're gonna cry -- cry, cry, cry 96 tears...):

• Early this morning Kail reported to Dustin every single instance of every single duo or larger group of houseguests who talked together. @@
• BB woke them all up early today in anticipation of the POV competition.
• Kail told Jen she thought she'd have to throw the POV comp in order for Jen to win it and save herself. Kail feels that if she's on the block with Zach, she'll stay in the house. (I'm sure this has absolutely nothing to do with Dustin telling her she's safe this week. Right?)
• Jen and Kail think that Dustin may be planning to backdoor Daniele. (I don't think so!)
• There is still a foul smell in the yard although the ChenBat lives.
• Jen helped Kail study for the POV comp since she remembers each day and Kail is clueless.
• After the feeds returned post-POV comp, Dick thought Jen threw the comp because she gave up when Jameka was ahead. He also thinks Dustin didn't try hard enough to win.
• Both Jen and Dustin took prizes in lieu of the veto. Dustin "bought" $5,000. He apologized to Jameka for taking it and not trying to win the veto.
• Jameka told Amber that God had already ordained who would win the POV.
• Jameka also told Amber that she had given Jen her word that she would take her off the block with it. So, she will do so.
• Amber cried. This time it was because she doesn't want Jen to come off the block.
• Jessica told Eric that Jewish and Amish are alike because they both wear hats. (Snicker.)
• Dick told Dustin that he thinks Kail will go home if she's on the block with Zach. She did something (during the comp?) which ticked folks off.
• Dustin again told Kail she's safe -- he wants Zach out.
• Kail badmouthed Dick to Dustin, but he seemed to take it all with a grain of salt.
• Kail told Dustin that she thinks Daniele was the second vote to evict her instead of Mike.
• Daniele is mad at Dustin for "winning all the prizes" in the POV comp instead of playing to win.
• Dick told Daniele that Eric is going to be the hardest person to get out of the house -- he's smart and the best player in the house.
• Amber cried. This time it was to Eric about Dustin's behavior in the POV comp. She feels he threw it on purpose.
• Amber cried. This time it was because Dustin won a trip.
• Jameka and Dustin are talking as I post this. She's fine with his actions during the POV comp and says she'll be using the veto to save Jen as she promised.
  

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds Bulletin! - POV Winner

Jameka won the POV competition. Earlier, she had said if she won, she'd take Jen off the block. I guess we'll see!

A full update will be posted late tonight with the day's events.
