Big Brother 8: Live feeds update - August 7

Zach dresses funnyDespite Big Brother 8 executive producer Allison Grodner's best efforts, this season isn't shaping up to be my favorite one. I start to like one of the houseguests and immediately he or she will do something incredibly stupid or behave in such an outrageous way that I question my own sense of reason. The theme of the house itself is okay ... I like Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

I think America's Player should vote out the whole cast and get new hamsters in for the rest of the season. I think this is the first year ever I haven't had a houseguest I'm totally cheering on. Oy!

Nonetheless, I still enjoy being a fly on the wall via the 24/7 live feeds from the house. For the latest Big Brother House Hamster Happenings, read on beyond the jump. Beware -- these are spoilers!

Yesterday, after the POV ceremony, Dustin tried to win Zach over to their side by telling him the majority vote would be for Kail to go home. Unfortunately for Dustin, Zach is in a quasi-alliance with Evel Dick, Daniele, and Jen these days. (Yes, you heard me right!) Zach is a bit more astute at the game than he comes across at a quick glance. He played along fine with Dustin telling him that he hadn't made up his mind yet. Dustin told him he can't trust the Donatos (Dick and Daniele).

Zach, being the loyal once he's committed buddy that he is, reported the conversation to Dick and Daniele asking they not repeat it.

So, what does Evel Dick do? He gets right in Dustin's face yelling at him in the bathroom while repeating the phrase "you can't trust the Donatos" over and over again. People keep going on about Evel Dick's honesty, but that was a purely foolish move which immediately cast aspersions on Zach.

Dustin knows that Zach is the only one he used the phrase with so now they know Zach is working with Dick and Daniele. He's very irked at Dick, but will most likely stay in their fold because now he's on the outs with the other side. And, despite what Dick says, there are indeed two sides now.

I call Dustin, Amber, Jessica, Jameka, and Eric the LNC Remainders while Dick and Daniele are the LNC Rejects. I'm a bit boggled that they can be screaming at each other one minute and discussing family pets the next. Kail is still straddling the fence and will most likely be like Humpty Dumpty. She doesn't fit in on either side.

Jen is proving to be interesting. While she is technically in a truce and supposedly working with Daniele and Evel Dick, she's still doing a lot of moves on her own. She's spread a few lies, she's told some truths which weren't meant to be told. We have to remember that she is the one connected to ChillTown (Mike Boogie Malin and the Evil Dr. Will) and may have a lot more game knowledge than is immediately noticed. I mentioned that, from watching the feeds, she was working with Dick a lot earlier than she went more publicly to the Dark Side.

It still looks like the vote will be for Kail to go home at this time.

In other house tidbits:

  • The feeds have been playing the more mellow old show theme music while they were blocked for various reasons on and off during the day. It's much more soothing than the jarring loud new theme. We still have the blue liquid vortex instead of the Chicken Cam, though.
  • Evel thinks Eric voted the odd votes to stir up the house.
  • Jen questioned Evel about why Dustin was campaigning for Eric. He told her that Dustin wants to divide the house and make himself look better because he'll claim he made all the effort for the group's good.
  • Evel Dick said he's going to keep the pressure on Dustin all week.
  • Jen and Daniele advised Kail not to campaign for votes until Wednesday because early campaigning didn't work for Joe.
  • Kail, Jen , and Daniele decided that Dustin has lied to each of them a lot.
  • Daniele told Jen that if Eric were on the block with Dustin, Eric would go home because he's the better player.
  • Kail told Daniele, Jen, and Dick that Dustin was her leak for LNC information, thus clearing Eric's name in that particular accusation.
  • The Bunny People have to wear their costumes through Thursday night's live show which makes Eric think the HOH Competition will be trivia. The costumes are just a bit bulky.
There's still a lot of speculation on the internet that we're heading into a double eviction week. If so, usually the new HOH has to nominate two houseguests for eviction on the spot and the second eviction is on Sunday. I have seen no credible source for the rumor, so I'm just rumor-mongering here. We are due and we also started out with a few more houseguests this season than we have during other years.

Oh, gee ... now they're getting really boring in the house! Jameka is braiding Amber's hair and Amber looks like she's been crying. The show should be more interesting tonight than what's going on at the moment. Stay tuned for JJ Hawkins' show post which should be up and running later tonight!

I'm disappointed w/Jameka. Jesus said, "Love thine enemy". She should be praying for the atheist instead of spitting venom at him.

So far this is the most boring BB yet. I watch each and every season and it seems to me there are no twists and turns like there have been in the past. I plan to keep watching, hoping BB brings something a little more interesting in to the game.

LUCYFAN62 ... WAS GLAD SOMEONE ELSE NOTICED THAT $10,000 BID FROM JAMEKA BEING A DEFINITE SIGN OF GREED!!! AS YOU HEARD JEN SAY "WE DON'T HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING" MEANING IT'S COMING OUT OF PRIZE $ NOT YOUR POCKET. ALSO LIKED THAT YOU TOO PICKED UP ON JAMEKA'S "TASTE GOD" PHRASE??!! ... I PERSONALLY AM FINDING IT HARD TO STOMACH HER=)

I believe the America's Player suggestions are merely that, except for the vote. Eric can choose to do the task or he can choose to ignore it. However, for every task he completes he gets closer to winning some cash, so it's greed motivated again. Speaking of greed, what about Jameka and the PoV competition. Isn't greed a sin, and didn't she get all upset about Dustin's greed during a previous competition and then she has the nerve to offer only $10,000 of her winnings??? And then she goes and prays. Such hypocrisy - only using religion and the Bible when it suits her own needs or to attack others. She should get her own televangelism show. And what does "Taste Jesus" mean??? Who says that in a prayer???

Hi,
Actually it is Danielle who figures out that Eric has some secrets and decides to nominate him.. Dick lets her know Kail will probably go home.. though he is upset with Erics betrayal..that banner made Eric out to be very shady..and I cant believe how hard everyone is on Dick.. but its ok to call Dick and Danielle trash behind their backs.. talk about them sleeping together..and tell Ambers private issues about abortions and drug use to others..and its ok to puth down Jewish people...Dick is dick..and atleast he isnt racist..he just has his own views.. and isnt fake about them

I'm hoping final two are Zach and Jen with Zach taking the game! Don't get me wrong, I still dislike Jen, but her game play is spot on. Poor Zach got off to a rough start but he's so darn cute in that bunny suit. I just wish he'd stick it out a lil' longer before jumping into the pit with D&D.

I'm so over Dick and without him, Daniele won't know what to do, like it or not she relys wholly on Dick.

And Amber cried...buckets...again and again, that would be reason enough to get her out but, her racial slurs are so uncalled for, she should lose a tooth every time she mentions Gods name. She'd be toothless in 24 hours!
IMO Jameka is no better.

Dustin, like Dick has caused my thinking to come full circle, I liked them both "in the begininng"...lol no Bible pun intended. I think he'd throw his girlfriend under the bus to win.

Jessica is a true floater, I can't wait to see who she votes for this week.

And Kail? who's Kail...is that whats for lunch?

Why can't Eric just say "no" to the America's Vote? Is there a penalty? There should be a clause that if it looks like it will make him a target to get voted out, then he can refuse to do it.

Thanks you for the up-date Jackie. It must be hard trying to write an interesting article when the houseguests are so boring at the moment. It seems they are always running around in circles and rehashing the same old thing.

Love see Zach in the bunnie suit. It just seems so out of character for him, well that is, if he had a character.
