Big Brother

[AbNormal27]

My wife and I started to watch this show last year (Big Brother 3). Any other lgc.com-ers watching it too? I have my favourites and Scott wasn't one of them (freak).

Aaryn

[Jeff O Rocks]

I do not like DANA....... :mad: :sick:

I fell asleep tonight and missed what happened...can someone fill me in??

Michelle was voted out and DANA won the HOH. They re-visited Jason, Roddy, Danielle and another woman from last year, but I can't remember her name. That's about it in a nutshell.

Aaryn

[JaroFan]

Poor Michelle...did they tell her who the 2 votes for her were?

[AbNormal27]

Not both of them, but they did tell he that David voted against her.

Aaryn

[Jeff O Rocks]

If David had good sense..IMHO..he would have used the veto power and gotten rid of Dana...now she will be a thorn in everyone's side.... :mad:

Michelle was the one X that I really liked...hate that she is gone.. :sad:

I agree with that wholeheartedly. BTW, doesn't Robert just look scary, I mean that guy looks like a cross between a weasel and a serial rapist?

Aaryn

[JaroFan]

I agree about David! I got my husband to watch the show for about 5 minutes last night and all he could talk about was how David looked like Clay Aiken (i guess it's the hair).

Doesn't it seem odd that WRAL will show BB, where we saw people in bed kissing & wearing lettuce bikinis, but they won't show Cupid?

Jarofan, you are being too polite - I think there was a lot more than "kissing" going on. ;)

Oh yes, but it does seem odd.

[Stormbringer]

Not that I care for Big Brother and Cupid, or another show in their genre that I'm getting ready to mention, but I just had a couple of thoughts regarding WRAL's not showing Cupid...

One, maybe WRAL didn't realize or know that they would have a scene on Big Brother like the one mentioned here.

or...

Two, I can't help but wonder if not showing Cupid is WRAL's way of still pouting over Clay's "losing" (It's never like he really lost...he still has and will always have it made with all the money he's won/earned and has yet to earn.) on American Idol. Afterall, as most of us know, Simon Cowell, who is the host of Cupid, has a huge involvement on American Idol. Not to mention how WRAL is the only CBS affiliate in the US of A not showing Cupid, which was mentioned in the N&O. I would post the article, but you need a membership on the N&O's site to view it now. :sad: For those of you who watched American Idol, who did Simon seem a little more biased towards, Ruben or Clay?

If the second thought really is the case...that is incredibly petty of WRAL, and shows that they need to get over Clay "losing" and move on to greener pastures.

Is it just me, or does it seem like WRAL got over the Canes losing in last year's Cup Finals a little quicker than Clay "losing"? :roll:

[e2ipiand1]

WRAL's reason for not showing Cupid is that it "demeans the institution of Marriage". Big Brother doesn't involve people getting married, so, they'll show it (no matter how bad it gets). This was the same arguement made when CBC's other station didn't show Married by America.

Yes, but wouldn't you like to think that if that really was the case, another station or two would pull Cupid? I seem to recall hearing or reading somewhere that WRAZ wasn't the only station who pulled Temptation Island in its heyday.

But further regarding what you said, I wonder if WRAL would have pulled The Bachelor if it aired on CBS instead of ABC? WDTV certainly didn't/doesn't have any qualms about showing that... Not to mention Who Wants To Marry A Multi-Millionaire, didn't they show that on Fox here, or was that yanked?

BTW, welcome to the board E2. :)

Personally, and this is totally just my opinion, I think another reason WRAL would never pull BB is because it is so much more hyped on CBS; for example the morning show will have the evicted guests. I think they'd get a lot more flack about not showing that one.

Doesn't Cupid come on at 10 pm anyway? I can understand the point about maybe demeaning the institution of marriage, but have you seen how much BB has changed? You've got almost all young, single, attractive people there, save for one older guy. They are ASKING for hook-ups.

Are the people supposed to get married after Cupid?

[AbNormal27]

........ have you seen how much BB has changed? You've got almost all young, single, attractive people there, save for one older guy. They are ASKING for hook-ups.

Damn Jaro, your not making my case to become a contestant any easier. First CBS won't allow Canadians to take part, then my wife says she doesn't like the idea of me being away that long, and now you say they are asking for hook ups? DAMN :angel:

Aaryn

[Jeff O Rocks]

I am surprised at home calm Jack is with all those youngins!! He seems really laid back and I have all ideas that he will either win or be one of the last ones evicted....he is a nice guy...but very smart!! ;)

Robert is a weasel...you can tell by the way he watches and listens..

[Stormbringer]

Are the people supposed to get married after Cupid?

Well, I honestly don't know...but based on descriptions I've read at various sites when I was seeking the N&O article I mentioned in a previous post and seeing if it was elsewhere, Cupid is supposed to be a "dating game". None of the descriptions mentioned getting married, but instead made the show sound like a Blind Date clone with a hint of Love Connection. With that said, based on what little I've seen of him, I could envision Simon Cowell being a snide version of Chuck Woolery.

But, if those descriptions are true, and there is no marriage, I wonder where the heck WRAL got the "demeaning to marriage" idea from? Things that make you go hmmmm...

[nccanes]

Yes, but wouldn't you like to think that if that really was the case, another station or two would pull Cupid? I seem to recall hearing or reading somewhere that WRAZ wasn't the only station who pulled Temptation Island in its heyday.

Which is why it's clear it has nothing to do with Clay Aiken/American Idol. They also pulled the Marry A Millionaire thing I think (or some other show) which aired long before Idol.

[Jillsdad]

Don't know if anybody posted it but the two votes for Erica were from two of the three stooges Robert and Justin. Everybody else voted to evict Michelle. The third stooge, Jee, luckily could not vote. As far as favorites. Jack, Dave(although he is a little whacked) and Erica. Dana, Jun and the stooges make me want to vomit!!! Just my 2 cents worth

[nccanes]

Funny JD - I kind of like the stooges, lol but NOT Dana. I guess it's just because they were at such a disadvantage coming in as the minority exes. I thought Jee was stupid to not put up two from the original 8, but I guess they don't really know that they are all together?

In a warped way I kind of like Jee and Jun. Jun is b*tchy, but she's very smart and I like her smart*ss (yet honest) comments.

[AbNormal27]

I think that all bets are off now that Nathan used the veto and David was put up for eviction. The 2 sides are divided and Dana has positioned herself to be the next to get nominated. Whomever is put up against her should rest easy. Thoughts?

Aaryn

[nccanes]

You know, I convince myself I hate this show (or did after the first one or two), but it's much more tolerable when watched via DVR. Between the recap at the beginning and the commercials and some other crap, I've got it down to about 30 mins.

Anyway, regrettably I actually seem to be enjoying this. Save me. ;) What else to watch in the summer!

Okay, now. Answer me this Aaryn. When you win the veto you protect yourself AND whomever you "save" (if you choose to)? Guess so, otherwise no one would ever use it, huh?

Nathan is a little pretty boy dumbass (imo), but I guess he was right that he and Ali :sick: were low men on the totem pole in that group. Problem is, while they ridiculed Dana for switching sides, she at least has 4 new allies. Now he is an island with Ali. And she'll kick him off if she needs to.

I hope Justin wins HOH and puts up Ali and Nathan!

[Jeff O Rocks]

I despise Dana :mad: :mad: ....she had some nerve jumping on Nathan and saying something about trust and loyalty...after she had nominated two of the "originals"...I am pissed at Nathan for saving Allison instead of Jack! :roll:

You are correct-ish nccanes. The one who wins the power of veto is immune from being put up if they use it, Nathan is a "little pretty boy dumbass" (doesn't Allie look like about 40 girls you have seen before?), and I still hope Dana gets her ass evicted, just don't like her.

Aaryn

Exactly Aaryn!! I saw Allison and thought "hasn't she been on SOME reality show before" or "do I know her". She seems so familiar. Even her psuedo-hoarse voice!

Anyway, I'm not a Dana fan, but for now I'm kind of rooting for the underdog exes and she's part of the key to their survival. I'm sure they'll do something to piss me off and I'll change my preference.

One of my other guilty pleasures is The Amazing Race. I hated Kelly and John, but that other team (the "virgins") pissed me off so bad that I turned on a dime and wanted them out, meaning I had to pull for the obnoxious duo of Kelly/John. :laugh:

I've never seen Amazing Race...on the commercials all they do is fight....do they ever get along?? :roll:

[AbNormal27]

I can hear the fat lady already singing for Dana. I wasn't surprised to see David go, and actually bet my wife that Jack would stay........... dinner's on her Friday night.

Aaryn

[nccanes]

Kind of impressive that Nathan and Ali won the competitions that they set out too. The rest of the gang may have laughed at them for practicing, but obviously it paid off - perhaps some of them should have tried a little harder.

I imagine there will be no mystery about nominations, I'd expect her to put up Dana and Justin - unless she does something stupid to try and put Dana up against a "pawn" to ensure Dana getting the axe and it backfires.

[Jeff O Rocks]

If David had had any sense last week, he could have used veto power, got Dana on the chopping block, and he would probably still be in the house!! :mad:

[Jillsdad]

Two things about BB last night that were classic. Ist and foremost was Dana and Justin's expressions after Alie won HOH. Dana looked like someone had just caught her with her hand in the cookie jar. It was priceless, and I believe she knows that she is done. Good Riddance MANTROLL!!!!!! The second thing is it was refreshing to have a person evicted and not have them boohoo like a blubbering idiot when talking to Julie. It is a game people, you act like you have been kicked out on the street to live a life of panhandling. Gimme a break.

Back on this topic again, I was watching CSI last night (which I love) and actually got disgusted because they showed the coroner cutting open someone's skull with a bone saw and peeling away the skin of his face. It was like I was watching the Discovery Channel or something. I really don't need to see something that graphic, unless i'm watching an R movie. But yet they won't show Cupid. I still don't get it.

Kind of OT but along those lines, if you ever have a chance to watch soaps during the day, some of those love scenes are HOTT!! I am thinking..hope the kids are outside playing! :crazy: :eek:

Yeah, and isn't some of the stuff that happens on soap operas demeaning to marriage? I guess exceptions are made for shows like those and CSI because of their being fiction. Still though, things that make you go hmmmm...

[Turbulence]

Yea, whatever happened to wholesome family shows like Full House?
Personally, for CSI I think it adds a touch of realism...When I see a show about something like that I want to see what they do and how they do it...I don't want to be shielded from the awful truth. I have to admit, though, the face-peel was disgusting...

[nccanes]

....um......we're veering OT. :)

[Jillsdad]

To attempt to get us back on topic, if anyone likes I have the spoilers for who is nominated tonite. LEt me know if you want to know!!!!!!!

[Jeff O Rocks]

My guesses are DANA... :mad: and Justin!

[Jillsdad]

Save a piece of pie for me, but you are only half right on your guess as to who is nominated!!!!

[nccanes]

I had lunch with a friend who also knew. I said that immediately before winning HoH she said it was going to be Justin/Dana, but if she was smart she'd nominate.....and I was correct! Smart move by Ali, but we'll see if she was smart or someone else suggested it.

[Jeff O Rocks]

very smart move Eileen and I so hope they get rid of Dana!! What a pain in the as* she is!! :mad:

[Jeff O Rocks]

Bye Bye Dana...you bitc*!! :mad: :D I can't see anyone voting for Jun... :roll:

[AbNormal27]

Yuppo, the Mantroll is gone. my prediction for tonight's eviction voting is that no matter how much whining Dana does to sway the voting, she is OUT! Buh-bye!

Aaryn

[Jeff O Rocks]

I loved it when she kept trying to plead her case, and Robert and Justin were just totally getting sick of her!! :D

[nccanes]

The thing I thought was interesting is how po'd the rest of the "original alliance" was about who Ali nominated. She really did do the right thing - and she has the right to get rid of the person that was gunning for her. Are the original alliance people stupid enough to believe that they could woo Dana back into their graces if they got rid of Justin instead?

I can't imagine how psycho Dana has been between the veto thing and the voting.

Oh, and I like Jee. He seems like a good kid.

I agree about the surprise too Eileen....At first I thought Jack and Erika wanted to get Veto Power so they could save Dana and put up Justin and I was like WTF???? Dana is gone..

And about Jee, I said the same thing last night....you just can't NOT like him....the piece about him and Justin and the part about his dad.. :cry: , were great.. :D

[Jillsdad]

See what you both must realize is that Dana would go the minute she is put up because everyone hates her even the Stooges. If you put Justin up and get rid of him because he is strong, then you have cut off the head of the Stooges and the other two you can manipulate in any way you see fit. Dana would be voted out no matter who she gets put up against even the turtles, so you save her for a time when one of the people you like might be vulnerable. IMHO

[nccanes]

Perhaps you're right JD - and maybe that's what they were thinking and it was lost on the editing room floor. I did hear Jack saying something (pre-noms) about Dana possibly coming back to them to get rid of the rest of the exes. *That* would be foolish to believe.

In any event, I'm glad she's going tonight and I'm praying that no one is stupid enough to get convinced to do otherwise. Plus I like Jun's snarkiness.

[Jeff O Rocks]

Ok....so the bitc* is gone....hurray!! Now what will Justin do?? I know he will nominate Nathan and I have all ideas that he will do the same to Allison...any thoughts? :roll:

[nccanes]

I was wondering too Mona. Nathan is practically a lock, but who with him? I can't imagine any of the stooges or Jun changing their minds, so if Nathan is up and they want him to go, then he'll go.

Nathan must be pretty po'd that he put so much on the line for Ali, lol.

[AbNormal27]

OK, a moment of silence for Dana... OK, enough of that. Alison will be put up. I think she did nothing to endear herself last night with her post eveiction "I feel awful" speech, and I think she has made herself out to be quite 2 faced with all the flirting "due to strategy" and her messages home to her boyfriend. Nathan will most likely be put up with her IMO so that the remaining house guests will get him and Alison at odds trying to sway people. I am now pulling for Jack to win it all. I think he threw the HOH competition so he couldn't win, and continue his strategy of laying low. Friday should be fun.

Aaryn

[Jeff O Rocks]

I think he threw the HOH competition so he couldn't win, and continue his strategy of laying low.

Aaryn

I totally agree...I started to ask you guys if you thought Jack lost on purpose. He is very smart and I know he knew the answer to that question and he didn't seem to upset that he missed it..... :D Nathan should know that Allison is just using him, but I am sure he has a "bad boy" underneath that nice guy exterior too!! We'll see!! :spin:

[nccanes]

The only risk in putting up Ali is that Justin "promised" he wouldn't. Not that I think he meant that for 1 second, but he may want her to think he can be trusted in the short term. Then again, I'd love for him to put her up as "the pawn" and let Nathan and Ali go ballistic against each other.

[Jeff O Rocks]

That would be something Eileen...I bet Allison can get mean..and what was up with all that footage of her in every guy's bed except Jack's??? :D When she gets home, Donny will be gone!! ;)

[AbNormal27]

[AbNormal27]

JACK and Nathan? JACK? What did Jack do? I hope they vote Pretty Boy off. I am sticking by my prediciton...... Jack to win!

Aaryn

[JaroFan]

JACK and Nathan? JACK? What did Jack do? I hope they vote Pretty Boy off. I am sticking by my prediciton...... Jack to win!

Aaryn

Thanks for telling me! Our satellite went out right at the end (stupid storm) and I forgot to look it up. I really like Jack. It's time for Nathan to get out!

[Jeff O Rocks]

Holy moly...I knew Nathan for sure but Jack???? :crazy: Justin is scared because Jack is a strong, intelligent likeable guy...I won't be surprised if it is Jack that goes.. :sad:

[AbNormal27]

Veto night. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Pretty Boy doesn't win it.

Aaryn

[Jeff O Rocks]

I want Allison to go.......what a back stabbing two-faced little bitc*!!! I would rather Nathan stay and her go!! :mad:

[AbNormal27]

Well, with 2 of the 3 Stooges on the block, and the veto up for grabs, I was glad to see Jun win the veto and make everyone sweat and posture against each other. It was also really nice to see Robert get that letter from his daughter, it brought tearss to my eyes. Those who didn't feel the same..... you must be a damn robot. The alliances are really starting to get strained, eh?

Jack and Erika
Robert, Justin, and Jee
Jee and Jun
Jun and Alison

Who do y'all think will be shown the door?

Aaryn

PS: Damn I wish they would allow Canadians to take part. I would LOVE to be part of BB5.

[Jeff O Rocks]

I cried when Robert got that letter too...and I don't even like the weasel.. ;) I am sick of Allison and her two faces..as well as Jun..but Jun doesn't piss me off quite as bad....I think Justin is the biggest threat to the others so I think he should go.....I was surprised at how strong Jack is about Robert leaving!!

[nccanes]

I was surprised at how strong Jack is about Robert leaving!!

I don't get that. Did I miss something? Why after all this time about Justin is he now saying Robert?

Yeah, I was touched by Robert's letter too. Nice to see the people that voted chose him!!

[AbNormal27]

Yeah, I was touched by Robert's letter too. Nice to see the people that voted chose him!!

Yeah that was nice, but will the houseguests vote for him too........ to be evicted?

BTW, obviously Jeff O saw something the rest of us missed since Jack just voted for Justin to be evicted.

Aaryn

[Jeff O Rocks]

Last night, Jack said he wanted Robert out as soon as he came out of the diary room!! :crazy: :roll: hmmmmmmmmmm..???

True, but he also said to his face, "We got your back" after Robert read his letter from his daughter. I thought that about summed it up. I guess I missed the statement Jack made outside the diary room. My bad, no hard feelings?

Aaryn

[nccanes]

Oh I definitely saw that statement too. When I said "did I miss something", I meant what led him to say that. But who knows, maybe they edited the comment and he was talking about after they got Justin out..."I want Robert out" or something.

For those that are in the "jury house", at least they will be having a LOT more fun than those last 6 in the BB house.

[Jeff O Rocks]

So who went?? I was busy and missed it..

and Aaryn..no hard feelings! ;)

They probably showed us that clip of Jack saying that to throw us off about how he would vote...just when you think you figure someone out, they go the complete opposite way!! :roll:

[AbNormal27]

Justin was eveicted by a vote of 3-1. Julie came on at the end of the show to let the houseguests know that the game will take a turn beginning tommorow (Thursday), which left the houseguests bewildered. She mentioned that she will reveal the twist on Saturday night. I'm thinking they will re-introduce one of the evicted houseguests, much like they did with Amy last year. My wife is saying she thinks Scott will be brought back. You may remember him as the psycho who was "removed" at the very beginning of Big Brother 4 because of his weird mood swings. Stay tuned.

Aaryn

[nccanes]

Justin got the axe, 3-1. Jee asked if he could vote for Robert just out of respect for Justin so it wouldn't be unanimous.

It was interesting in the interview with Julie Chen, Justin was asked if he had any hard feelings that after his HoH week, that Robert left the cage so soon and Jee "cut a deal". Robert said "not at all" and that Jee had been made that offer about 10 minutes after Robert left the cage and he still stood there for 6 hours before finally leaving.

They did a nice piece on the 3 stooges showing each of them talking about how close they'd become and how important their friendships were. It was actually very sweet.

Jee won HoH. I hope that Jee puts up Alison, she purposely didn't win HoH (she admitted it in the diary room) because she presumes she's safe on both sides, but I guess the obvious "alliance" to break up is Jack and Erika.

[nccanes]

My wife is saying she thinks Scott will be brought back. You may remember him as the psycho who was "removed" at the very beginning of Big Brother 4 because of his weird mood swings. Stay tuned.

Aaryn

Oh yeah, forgot about that part.

OMG Aaryn - if they do that with Scott :laugh:. Going back to when he was pulled out. I know he had that hissy fit where he was throwing crap around, etc. but they didn't yank him then did they? It seemed like it was after his ex got nominated he was really ticked off and then just went into the diary room and never came back. I may have missed a show back then, so maybe I've got that wrong.

I, for one, like the fact that the remaining houseguests are very calm and not screaming at each other constantly, but I don't know if that's what the producers want. I wonder if it will be a new houseguest, or if they will do something that will make their lives more difficult (as Jun was wondering since Julie had said they were "comfortable" in the BB house).

It should be interesting. I think she said the HGs would find out today.

[Jeff O Rocks]

I think that psycho was dangerous and I don't see him coming back unless he is constantly medicated!! :D

The one that would upset the apple cart the most IMHO would be Dana!! Bitc*!! :mad: :D

Thanks for the info about Justin guys....I know Jee and Robert will miss him!!

[AbNormal27]

No, Scott told Amanda (his ex) he loved her and blah, blah, blah, and he just started throwing things and yelling at the cameras because he "hated the way he was in the house" and felt he was making himself vulnerable by trying to woo Amanda. He was asked to go to the diary room via the plasma screen, and then the houseguests were informed that Scott would not be coming back. Psycho.

Aaryn

[JaroFan]

Anybody know why they stopped bringing family members/friends to the set when someone is evicted?

Also, anyone have the inside scoop yet as to the "shakeup"?


Edited to add: I found what the twist is! (If i trust the spoiler site I looked at). If anyone wants to know, let me know!

[nccanes]

Anybody know why they stopped bringing family members/friends to the set when someone is evicted?


I think it's because of the jury sequestering thing. I guess they figured that a family/friend would whisper something in their ear or something.

[AbNormal27]

What twists and turns are in store for tonight? Who will be nominated? I can hardly wait!

Aaryn

[JaroFan]

How much more stupid can BB get now with it's twists?

[AbNormal27]

I think that version 3 was much better than the current BB4. This has become much more corporate (product shots and spots), and now JUN is at the MTV Music Awards? Come on! The twists were intriguing, but now they are a disappointment. Only a few weeks left and Jack (my pick) is gone. Oh well.

Aaryn

I think it was BB2 when one of the people in the house won a trip to the Emmy Awards.

I think they have to do something at this point in the house - we've all grown tired of them sitting around whispering. This group seems to get along pretty well, so they can't rely on conflict to really create any tension/drama (not that I like to watch people ***** at each other).

I have enjoyed seeing the jury house - it's amazing how much more likeable they all seem after they aren't competing against each other.

I thought it was funny that both times Jee was HoH, HIS choice of his two nominees wasn't the one voted out. And Jack was right - they should have gotten rid of Ali.

Anyone know what Erika whispered to Jack just before he left the house?

"They threatened Alison and that's why she voted to keep me."

That's what I got when I replayed the tape and turned the the volume WAAAAAAAAAAY up.

I guess we'll have to tune in and see. Maybe now that Jun is out of the house, this may be the footage filler they will use.

I wondered if Erika just said that because she felt guilty about the girl-alliance. That doesn't seem likely since she was so honest to Jack the whole game.

[Jeff O Rocks]

So Jun and Jack are gone?? I am way behind!! :crazy:

[AbNormal27]

Jun is HOH, but gets to go to the MTV Music Awards, and Jack was evicted. There, now you are caught up. ;)

Aaryn

[Jeff O Rocks]

Poor Jack...I thought he would win!!

Thanks for the report.

[nccanes]

I don't get it. Why did Jun bother to nominate Ali when she's got the Veto? Was it just to mess with her head - or Robert's? She made the comment about wanting to be the one that dumps her ex (again). She has no guarantee that she'll do that. If it ends up Jee vs. Robert, Ali and Erika could dump Robert, if it's Jee vs. Erika, Ali and Robert could dump Erika. Jun seems like she wants to be the one to cast the tie-breaking vote, but things don't always work the way they are planned.

I have given up trying to figure those folks out...Allison is outside crying her heart out to Erika..then they show her in the room saying she is trying to show Erika her soft side so she will take her along...geez!! :D :roll:

[AbNormal27]

I can't figure this one out either. I will be tuning in tonight to see what the heck happens.

Aaryn

[JaroFan]

I am absolutely sick of Ali's two-faced acts. I know that's a part of the game, but she's sick. I'm sorry but if you're trying to make someone feel bad for you that you don't have a lot of money you don't say "Just cause my dad's a lawyer".


I don't get the nomination either. I wondered if maybe you can't use it on yourself?? But that's dumb. We'll see.

[nccanes]

Wow, who would have thunk it. Robert finally wins HoH at the most critical time. I can't believe Erika missed the one about the most difficult HoH competition for Justin - he didn't even have to compete in the Steel Cage thing! :crazy:

I thought the funniest thing was when they listened in on the house guests at the end and they were talking about how Julie Chen sounded like a man! :laugh:

At least Robert won't be a total pr*ck this week having won the HoH. The veto competition will be a real cat fight. ;)

[Alicia]

Who went home? I missed it... :sad:

[nccanes]

Who went home? I missed it... :sad:

Alison removed herself from nomination and Jun put Robert up. Both Alison and Erika voted for Jee, so he got the boot.

They did a quiz about comments made from the people on the jury and Erika was winning by 1 until the final question and then missed it and Robert got it right.

Sad thing is the tie-breaker was writing down the number of hours they have been in the BB house so far. Erika did some quick math and came up with 1440 and Robert took a wild ass guess of 800. The correct answer was 1436, so even though Erika was off by only 6 hours, Robert won because he didn't go over. :sick: :roll:

[AbNormal27]

I thought the funniest thing was when they listened in on the house guests at the end and they were talking about how Julie Chen sounded like a man! :laugh:

I think they were making reference to the eveicted house guests in the Sequester House and they were talking about how Dana sounded like a man. If you remember, they were then talking about the scenery and how tanned everyone looked.

I am glad Robert won HOH, and hope this holds true to my wife's prediction. Before the HOH contest, she said "If Robert wins, it will set the girl's plan all out of whack."

Who are y'all voting for to get the phone call? I think Robert is the sentimental favourite to get it, but Erika might get it on the popular vote since Robert got the letter from his daughter already. However, that being said, I think Alison may be voted to get the call so we can all SEE her get told off by her boyfriend once and for all. Maybe viewers are a little bored with how well everyone is getting along and this would just be too funny to pass up.

Damn - you're probably right. Dana does sound like a guy.

Yup. I think Ali is sitting the best. I suspect he'll nom Jun/Erika and presuming neither of them wins veto, then Ali has control (again) by being the lone voter. In all likelihood, she WILL be in the final two. I think Erika would get the most votes among those remaining and that the other three are pretty much a toss up.

[Jeff O Rocks]

When they showed Dana in the pool with Justin!!!!!! :sick: :sick: How sickening....

At this point, I am a ABA fan...anybody but Allison...... :mad: It should be interesting...you could see the pressure already getting to Robert during the HOH competition..he was twitching more than usual....hope he can keep it together..and if he can't..hope he takes it out on Allie.. :D

I went in & voted for Robert. I don't want to see Alison get anything!

On another reality TV note, who's going to watch Survivor? I haven't missed a single one yet, and this one looks great!!! :spin:

[Jeff O Rocks]

I so wanted to puke when I saw her talking about Donny...... :sick: :sick: :sick: If he has any sense, she is out!! :D What a two-faced little twit.. :mad:

Jee is a really sweet guy....when he saw the sendoffs last night..even though they were fake...he was touched...he is one that never made me mad at some point...

[Jillsdad]

As for Survivor, you get bet your sweet bippy that i will be watching. Robert got the letter from his daughter so i would be surprised if he got the phone call. Here is hoping that Erika gets the phone call because if I remember correctly she wants to talk to her mom.

[AbNormal27]

The only way you'll catch me watching that show is if Hell freezes over. If that does happen, then I guess Shanahan would also become my new best friend!

I can't stand that show and would rather have a root canal.

Funny, in general BB is my least favorite of the main reality shows (but what else to watch in the summer). The Amazing Race is my favorite and Survivor after that. I like the challenges, and them trying to figure out how to live, etc. I hate the backbiting bickering and incessant use of the word "alliance" (in both BB and Survivor), but anytime there is voting involved that's what it boils down to.

That's why I liked the amazing race, simple elimination - last team to arrive each show was gone.

I can't get my husband to watch any reality show but Survivor. At least they won't be as catty as these women on BB!

[AbNormal27]

DAMN! First that piece of garbage Alison wins the final veto (GAG), and then she puts up Erika who she then votes off (ERR), and we are supposed to believe she is sincere with that little tear-laden performance after she made her choice?

So, now we have Robert, Jun and Alison :mad: left. I'm going to be cheering for Robert. I hope he wins the HOH to guarantee himself a spot in the final 2, as I think he has the best chance to win against either of the 2 girls.

Anyone going to vote on whom you would like to have an online chat with. To be honest, Robert has won the letter from home and the heartbreaking phonecall, so I'm not sure if he'll get the chat too. That being said does anyone REALLY want to chat with Jun or Alison?

FINALLY, I saw the commercial last night for the call for entries for Big Brother 5, and even though my wife doesn't like the idea of me spending next summer away from her, I am beginning my campaign to get on that show. The heck with their stinking "Only Resisdents of the US are Eligible" rule! I WANT ON THE SHOW!

Aaryn

[Jeff O Rocks]

I am cheering for Robert as well.. I can't bear the thought of Allison winning :mad: (and I think Dana will kill everyone involved if that happens :D ) but I am not fond of Jun either...

that phone call for Robert was heartbreaking..his daughter's face was so sad.. :cry:

Good luck Aaryn...that would be really cool to see someone that we "know" on the show! :spin:

[AbNormal27]

Well, it's down to the final 3 and i think that Ali is burning all her bridges. If she loses HOH, IMHO, she is a lock for the final 2. Everyone is pissed at her, and now she will rue the day she played the way she has.

I can't believe that Robert got his third Ask America prize.

Anyone else have any predictions?

Aaryn

[nccanes]

I finally watched my tape of Wed BB last night. So it's Jun and Ali.

So let's poll the jury - I think it will be a close one. I agree with Ali's presumption that Robert could have beaten either of them.

Nathan - Ali
Dana - Jun
Justin - ?
Jack - Ali?
Jee - Jun?
Erika - Jun?
Robert - Ali

I think Jack, Justin, Robert, and Jee might "respect" Ali's gamesmanship and vote for her.

It's really too hard to predict how people will react. Respect for "outplaying" them, or "po'd that she's caused my eviction"?

Too close to call.

So you think Nathan will vote for Ali? I can't decide. He may not forgive her for using the veto on her & then she turned on him. He may just go by how she played the game, though.

At this point, Jun is the lesser of 2 evils for me!

If Ali wins, I will be forced to find something to kick and punch!! :mad: Jun ain't my fave either, but she hasn't been as bad as Ali...If Ali wins, Dana will probably kill her live in from of Julie and the entire country! :D

I predict that Jun will win cause Ali told more lies and stepped on more toes..

[AbNormal27]

Justion is now "cuddle buddies" with Dana now, and so I don't think he will vote for Ali. Nathan won't vote for her. Robert won't vote for her because of his respect for Jun. Erika won't vote for Ali because she knows she lied to her. Dana won't vote for Ali (duh). There you have it, enough votes for the lesser of 2 evils, Jun. JMHO.

Aaryn

[Alicia]

Taking previous BB's into consideration, the person you despise the most usually winds up winning.

[AbNormal27]

You may be right, and that would really chap my a$$. I think if Alison wins, Dana will do what Jeff O predicted and kill her right in front of Julie and the entire world.

Trip to Big Brother - $300.00
Getting "played" in the game - $500,000.00
Killing the little b!#ch who "played" you on live television - PRICELESS!

Aaryn

[nccanes]

I think it's a total crapshoot, but here's my theory.

Ali and Jun played a very similar game, but Ali was always the one to make the hard decisions in voting or nominating. Jun has always positioned herself into the right spot, but took the leap of faith that it wouldn't backfire AND she would never become the target (and obviously it worked to perfection). Now, will the people that try to judge on 'gamesmanship' go for Ali's overt style or Jun's covert style?

And I wanted to puke when Ali spewed out that farewell to Robert "...you have no flaws...". I think Robert is stupid enough to believe it. She obviously did that to sway his vote - and it could work. But kudos to Ali for including in her eviction speech that Rob told her he would convince everyone not to vote for her (the threat). The jury sees only the HoH comps, the nominations, and the evictions. Good that she was smart enough to head that off at the pass.

Finally, I think the difference between Ali and Jun is that Ali is just plain *****y and Jun is more calculated and clever in her *****iness. She makes me laugh more than Ali, so she gets my vote, lol.

Did anybody else get sappy like me & cry when his daughter was there? :cry:

I saw him leave but I missed that part...glad I did..I cried enough when he read her letter and received her call!! :cry:

Good luck Jun!

[Jillsdad]

I have to give out major props to all the members of the jury for putting those two weasels in their place. For someone who just won 500k poor Jun looked like she had been beat up when she realized what the other members thought of her. The mere fact that Ali did not win the money was enough but to see her put in her place also did my heart good. It was a far cry from the last two years when both Lisa and Will celebrated because although they had to lie to play the game, they had stayed away from personal attacks on the other houseguests. Now the only other hope i have is that Ali's boyfriend drops her like a bad habit. It would serve the bit*h right.

[Jeff O Rocks]

Yeah I think they both were shocked at what the jury said to them....I think it really made them realize what miserable *****e* they really are...as I saw them sitting there side by side, I realized I didn't want EITHER of them to get a dime! As was said, Jun was the lesser of two evils, I guess.........and I could kick Nathan in the ass for still being whipped by Allison and voting for her!! :mad:

and did you notice when her parents were waiting, there was NO DONNY???? :D

[AbNormal27]

LOL! YES! The lesser of 2 evils wins! I think even though she gets 50K for losing, Ali got what she deserved. Second place is the first loser, remember.

I think it was nice to bring back all of the houseguests (except for Scott). Michelle didn't do anything to change my mind about how she was viewed (as a TRUE teenager), David acted like a complete schmuck, Nathan needs to get a clue, STILL, and what were those pants Julie was wearing???!

All in all, it was a good season, and I hope to be part of BB5. I have been laying out my entry in hopes to sway the judges into allowing a Canadian. Wish me luck!

Aaryn

[nccanes]

Well remember the HGs knew that the diary room stuff wouldn't be viewed until after the vote, so I think everyone let it fly in there. So the fact that the jury voted and THEN saw the tapes before the finale had them all smarting from the personal slams.

With the exception of Jack (and to a lesser extent Jee), they ALL slammed each other when given the opportunity (privately to another house guest or in the diary room). Erika was full of CRAP when she tried to say her slams of Dana were for strategy - she was in the freakin diary room.

Last year's finalists were two fairly passive people right? It would be like having Erika and Jack in the finals.

Justin pretty much summed it up when he said "I'd rather be stabbed in the front, than in the back". I also agree with Jack, that Jun was the smartest person in the game (along with him). She was constantly able to asess each houseguest perfectly and know their next move. She didn't back down from the fact that she rags on people to entertain herself.

And a little feminist aside, I think Jun was very smart to bring up the fact that Ali used flirtation and her body, etc. to advance herself in the game.
