Big Brother 8: Executive producer Allison Grodner gives answers

i certainly know the difference between reality and a game show, but dick has been disrespectful since he began the show, is it any wonder his own child hasn't spoken to him for years!!! yes jen should not have destroyed his tobacco but did you see the episode where dick poured ice tea on jen, and she walked away.. it didnt matter if it was jen or any woman in there, he has gotten in all their faces, the only one he hasnt picked on is zack, is it because zack is a big man not like dustin or eric

Linda - welcome! If you're referring to the night he was evicted, the barbershop quartet, mini-mad hatter and all actually happened and were filmed the day before the eviction show and its HOH comp.

Hi, I'm new here, Did I see Dustin in the back yard AFTER his was voted out of the show?

Jackie's blog is the only good part of BB this season. And thanks for covering the questions about Jen eating. I guess her punishment is going to be go to sequester.

No Helen, men won't think that it is the norm to be disrespectful to women. We will however, think that women are stupid if they antagonize men and vandalize their personal property. Hopefully most people are smart enough not to over generalize the issue, like you have done, and realize that the situations are completely different between what is going on in the Big Brother house and domestic abuse. Here both parties are clearly guilty of extremely poor conduct on a reality show. It was Jen's own bad behavior which resulted in ED's bad behavior. If you attempt to grab a lit cigarette out of someones hand, more than likely you will get burned. And it was obvious from the crazed look in Jen's eyes she was trying to do just that, as a way to look like the victim when she was actually the one at fault. As for the name calling of course it is totally disrespectful but destroying personal property is totally disrespectful as well, possible more so, depends on what you value more.

Patrick -- This sentence -- "Beware -- there are spoilers for tonight's show in both the article linked and after the jump." -- was before the jump. Why did you read on after you were warned it contained show spoilers? There were no spoilers before that point, none at all.

Way to go and spoil the episode i haven't seen yet.. you could at least announce that you are posting spoiler.

it was disgusting the way you let dick berate and call jen a bitch. SHAME ON YOU!!!!!!!!!! what kind of message are you sending to young men, certainly not to have respect for women. you have lost me and my husband as viewers.. i was married to a man just like dick for 13 yrs. angry, hateful, spiteful and a woman hater, beaten for 13 yrs.. SHAME ON YOU!!!! jen did NOT deserve that. young women will think thats the norm for men these days, please make him apolize to jen and all women.. helen smith

It doesn't really matter if Jen found out something or not cause she got voted out and will be joining Dustin in sequester. Which is bound to be funny because he had a really great attitude on House calls after his eviction, and Jen seemed very odd after she got the boot, actually she seemed strangely odd the entire episode. I was completely surprised that she began to antagonize Dick not only trashing his cigs but then instigating that huge confrontation. I guess she must have realized she was definitely going home and just decided to do whatever she felt like but I thought it was really stupid on her part to start in on Dick. I mean I realize he's a total jerk and has been incredibly rude to her at times, but I thought she would have been smart enough to just stay away from him instead of picking fights with him, this time she gave him every reason to cuss at her and he took full advantage of it, she looked completely crazed trying to rip the lit cigarette out of his hand, hello it's burning paper, you don't grab it, sane people know better than to do something so stupid. She was starting to grow on me too, It's a shame she went out just as bad as when she started playing the game. And the train wreck continues, and I continue to watch but I can't really root for anyone they are all so revolting in their own little ways I'd don't care who gets the money. I really hope Amber won some money on that game show so she finally stops crying and they can give her the boot. I'm so tired of her that I can't even stand the site of her face anymore.
