'Big Brother 8' - 8/07 Show Live-Blogged from the East Coast

Jackie's TV Blog, BB8, Big Brother 8

The show has started here on the East Coast.As it airs, this post will be updated every few minutes. Please forgive any typos or misspellings as I'm looking at my TV and not either my monitor or keyboard! ;-)

They're recapping th nominations. Dick is egging on Jen again, no surprise. Jessica warned Eric that if the POV is used, he'll go on the block. Jessica spills all she knows to the group. The LNC minus Dick and Daniele suggest Jessica plays along with Daniele and Dick.

Eric confides in Jameka about it (she wasn't in the room before). Amber and Jameka are in the hammock discussing Eric's possible situation. "We have the votes period," says Jameka.

Zach is in the HOH with Daniele telling her he'd rather not talk game but has no friends in the house. They both think Nick got shafted. Daniele said this POV is for Nick. Once again, Zach says he has no friends and would like to work with Daniele down the road in the game. Daniele tells us it's the "Nick bond."

Eric's looking nervous. Dustin thinks that D&D have made the biggest mistake ever.

Ohhh... picking POV players. Eric needs it, but...! Zach was chosen by Dnaiele, Jen chose Dustin's ball, Kail got HG choice and chose Jameka. Amber will be the host.

The HG head to the backyard where things are covered up and they have little podiums. OMG - Amber's announcing is horrible. Thankfully Jen repeated the game's title -- Numbers Don't Lie. The lowest bid actually loses.

How many hours are you willing to wear a bunny suit? Dustin bid 100 hours and was eliminated. Kail, Jen, Daniele, Zach all have to be Bunny People for five days.

Dump the funk, how many times funky mixture dumped over your head? It smells like manure. All offered to do it for 24 hours.

$10,000 cash is up next. Highest number from zero to 10,000 will be eliminated. All wrote zero.

Sloppy summer is the next one... how many hours are you willing to eat nothing but slop. Daniele is nervouse -- she does poorly on slop. Kail and Jen say 720, Daniele 710, Jameka 480 and Zach is out for answering 250.

Power shortage -- Next 5 HOH comps, how many are you willing to not participate in? Jameka and KaIL said 5, Daniele was out with 3, Jen in the middle. Jameka and Kail can't try for HOH for the next five weeks.

Money walks -- How much of the prize money for the show up to $250,000 would you give up to win POV? Jameka bid 10 grand. Kail bid ALMOST half. Jen bid half and she has won POV. She once again tells us she's not there for the money.

Dick is happy.

The Bunny People have arrived. Jameka is crying about not being able to see pictures from home in an HOH goodie basket. Amber tells her God did it for a reason. @@ She prays and cries and prays some more. Taste God? Um, I dunno 'bout that!

Daniele consoles her then asks if she's mad at her. Thankfully, Jameka sees through it.

Jen thinks she and Daniele will work well together. She told Daniele that she plans to save herself. Daniele made her promise to vote to keep Kail and tells her all about the plan to vote out Eric.

Now Evel Disck is making his move on Jen. He promises to behave, stop picking on her, and says he's sorry ... truce time! Jen agrees. I'm sure she must see through him.

Jen tells us she doesn't know if she's morally ready to work with Dick and Daniele even though it might be smart strategically.

They're dumping the muck on here head.

Dick is lying to Jessica, claiming that Jen told him Eric was the one who was playing both sides.

Jessica went to Jen. Jen admits Eric is a good manipulator. Jessica seems to believe her. Jen is very convincing. Jessica runs to Dustin who doesn't buy it. Then she runs to Jameka who also doesn't buy it.

Local news promo -- A monkey got loose at LaGuardia. Heh.

Eric's America's Player -- To take to the final two, we finally got one right ... Jessica! He talks to Jessica and completes the task. She told him he's acting all weird.

The buzzers are going to the slop bucket dumpers. Jen said it doesn't smeel that bad -- just like manure. Well, maybe that's bad.

Dick is now accusing Eric of ill deeds while Eric is in the hot tub. Dick says Eric has deals with both Kail and Jen. He's way off base. Everybody's sitting there staring like zombies at Dick.

Everyone else thinks Daniele should send her father home. Dustin points out that Dick is running her HOH reign. He's right.

They made Jen wear her paws to do the POV meeting. She asks Kail for her speech. Kail says she wouldn't ask her to sacrifice her safety. Jen then talks to herself and saves herself. Daniele talked about enemies and when you know them, then chose Eric. Big shocker! Are you all okay?

Kail is discouraged because she doesn't think Daniele can keep her promise that she's safe. Dick is on some kind of odd (and probably mistaken) adrenalin high.

America's Player: What should Eric do? Which HG should Eric flatter incessantly in order to stay in the house?

It would be funny if he kept complimenting Dick as Dick screams at him. Heehee!

"You ^*&@#!" "You've got the most beautiful eyes, Dick!" "You #%$#&@*!"

'Big Brother 8' - Schtuff!

I have a new live feeds update up on TV Squad and I'll be live-blogging tonight's show as it airs here on the East Coast (starts in about 15 minutes). Everyone is invited to comment at either or both places! :-)

I'll be writing a late night update for the blog er... much later tonight!

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds Into Tuesday 8/07

This is just a quick report as nothing has changed too much in the house since the last entries:
  • Kail thinks she's going home, but wonders why Daniele and Dick are so angry about the Nick vote when they voted to save her.
  • Jessica and Eric joked about getting married after the show.
  • For a change, houseguests trashmouthed each other.
  • Amber told Jameka that Kail needs to go home anyway.
  • Daniele wants the America's Choice to happen.
  • Zach told Dick to be careful about repeating what he says to him as it puts him in a compromising position. (This was about his "Don't trust the Donatos"confrontation with Dustin.) Zach, "I don't really care because he's gay."

'Big Brother 8' - Latest TV Squad Post!

I also have a new feeds update report over on TV Squad.

What can I say? It keeps me off the streets and out of trouble.

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds Report and Video

I posted an article about Endemol banning banner planes flying over the house over on TV Squad. Feel free to give it a gander and a squawk! A hearty thanks to the commenters who linked the TMZ article in comments!

In the house, the biggest happening was that after Dustin told Zach not to trust the Donatos (Dick and Daniele) and tried to swing him to vote to evict Kail, Zach ran to Dick and Daniele and told them all about it.

Dick approached Dustin in the bathroom and lit into him about there aren't two sides, he knows he's been saying not to trust the Donatos, he (Dustin) chose greed over his alliance and on and on. Dustin looked terrified, but stared right back at Dick and all but said, "So...?" Unfortunately, I was too late on the trigger to record the Dick confrontation, but I got the aftermath where the rocket scientists figured out they don't have Zach on their side.



Not that there's two sides, mind you. Yeah, right!

In other news from the Big Brother House of Fools:
  • Now Dick decides he's always hated Dustin. (Um, wasn't Dustin his confidant just a few days ago?)
  • Dustin told Amber that Joe was heavy into drugs.
  • Amber thinks Eric is trying to pit her and Jessica against each other.
  • Dustin told Amber she needs to keep her emotions in check and under control. (Like that will ever happen!)
  • Amber is so mad at Eric about repeating her personal information (which she told on the Internet) that if not for swearing on her daughter's life, she would vote for him to leave. Amber told Dustin all about Dick telling her what Eric was saying about her.
