'Big Brother 8' Live Feeds TV Squad and STUFF

There is a new entry up over on TV Squad which covers the live feeds from this morning until the feeds block before the live show.

When the Big Brother 8 live show starts here on the East Coast, I'll open a live-blogging post for it and all comments are welcome!

Since the So You Think You Can Dance finale is two hours tonight, I have to tape the first hour due to BB8. At 9 PM ET, I'll open up an East Coast Updates post so you can converse in the comments area and I can post major updates. I will post the winner by 10 PM ET.

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds Into Thursday Morning 8/16

<--- The Jenius at rest. Again, houseguests are still up as I get this entry in. Eric, Jen, and Jessica are talking in the HOH room. Here's a quick take on the house happenings since the last update:

• While Jessica was in the HOH room celebrating Dick's supposed demise (from the game, not real) with Dustin, Amber, and Jessica ... Eric was talking to Daniele.
• In the Eric/Daniele conversation, they talked deal and going to the F4 together. That would be Daniele, Evel Dick, Jessica, and Eric.
• Eric made it sound like he would convince Jessica because neither trusted Dustin.
• Daniele told Eric that Jessica herself would have to talk to Zach because he told her he gave his word to vote Dick out.
• Eric and Daniele know that Jen has lied about many things.
• Dustin, although not AS cocky as originally, joked that he would walk out in his King's robe if evicted.
• When Eric and Jessica got together, Eric continued to work Jessica over to the evict Dustin plan.
• When Dick talked to Daniele about her talk with Eric, he told her that they shouldn't even think of taking Eric out next week if he does this for him this week.
• Meanwhile, Jessica said Daniele and Dick should go on the block next week, but Eric reminded her of the deal and said the veto replacement would have to be voted out.
• Jen and Eric started hiding items to make the others think there are more clues.
  

So, that's where things stand right now. It appears that the deal with Eric, Jessica, Dick, and Daniele is on (at the moment). If it lasts through to the show tonight, it will be Dustin leaving ... in his robe.

'Big Brother 8' - Through the Evening Wednesday 08/14

<-- Zach sits at his plate and talks to Amber about his career.

Amber didn't cry.

It's been some day in the house, but there have been no more visitors or unusual happenings. The houseguests' theories have run the gamut. Anything could be possible!

Here are the evening happenings from that Big Brother House of "We're All Mad Here" -- a quote from the Cheshire Cat in The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland:

• Zach walked up to Daniele and said something about sharing their secrets. When she didn't respond, he said, "No response. Very interesting." Then he walked away.
• Evel tried to reason his way into a deal with Eric (and Jessica). Eric seemed leery, but obviously taking it all in because he wants Dustin evicted this week.
• Evel regrets giving the slop pass to Jen instead of Daniele.
• Jameka and Amber think the numbers are shifting to a Dustin eviction.
• If Dustin goes, they both think they'll be the next two targets.
• Eric asked Zach if he saw the Sanskrit writing on Mini-Mad's shoes. Zach said he did, but can't read Sanskrit.
• There was no writing, Sanskrit or otherwise, on Mini-Mad's shoes.
• eric reported the conversation with Evel Dick to Jessica. She realized that some of what she said in confidence to Zach was repeated by Dick.
• Eric and Jessica talked about it being a 4 to 2 vote for Dustin to go -- that way she wouldn't have to be the tiebreaking vote.
• Zach reported his "date" conversation with Jessica to Dick -- he tried to campaign for Dick to stay.
• Daniele talked to Jessica about an alliance with her father, her, and Eric. Jessica seemed receptive, but she tends to do that.
• Jessica and Eric talked about the proposed deal with the Donato's. Jessica is leery, but Eric told her he would take all the heat if they do it.
• Jessica is leaning more towards an evict Dick vote as time goes on.
• Eric told Daniele they should form an alliance because they're both in vulnerable positions.
• Jameka, Dustin, and Jessica are in the HOH trying to figure out the day's clues.

I'll leave you with a line from Mini-Mad which I didn't list earlier:
"For a lie is but the truth in masquerade." It's actually a Lord Byron quote from Don Juan.
