Out in Reality TV: September 2007 Archives

Oh well.
Dick won "Big Brother 8" over his daughter, Danielle by a score of 5-2. I found out tonight while I was at the 40th Anniversary Gala for The Advocate and bumped into Marcellos Reynoilds who had come straight to the party from the taping of the finale at CBS.
"I knew he was gonna win," Marcellos said. "A girl cannot win 'Big Brother' unless they get to the end with another girl. There has to be two girls at the end for a woman to win 'Big Brother.' If Danielle had put guys into the sequester house instead of mostly women, she might have won. Guys can kind of let go of things. But she put miostly girls in there and at the end you get the 'Mean Girls' syndrome."
He says he thinks Daddy Dick will give his daughter some of the $500,000 he won but "she made $50,000 for three months. That's quite a nice chunk of change."
Here are some photos from the final show including the seven evicted houseguests who made it to sequester house and onto the jury. The finale also featured all of the houseguests from the entire some including 'Out In Hollywood' faves Nick and Mike...

I know it's all hugs and kisses etc. but I still feel that Dick's behavior was so rude and obnoxious that the hoiuseguests were fools for not voting him out. And his burning Jen with a cigarette should have either gotten him out of the house or suspended from HOH and POV competitions for a week or two,
Instead, CBS and 'Big Brother' producers did nothing.

OK, Evil Dick and his spawn of the devil daughter Daniele (did I just really write that?) are the final two. More on that nauseating development later. First though, I gotta say that watching Zach last night on "Big Brother 8" as he was hanging on to that key under the pouring water, I thought, "He looks HOT!" And the way he got all ferocious on Dick was so cool, he shut the chain-smoking, tatooed, pierced pain in the a** up for once!

But the high of Zach winning part one of HOH was short-lived as he stumbled in part three when he and Dick were asked six questions and had the choice of A or B. They guessed just about every time and it turned out that Dick guessed right just one question more than Zach. That resulted in...

...the duo being in the final two. Dick proclaimed them the best team in "Big Brother" history and blah, blah, blah, blah. The truth is, the other houseguests were complete morons in letting this pair remain week after week. When it comes time for the final vote (I assume the Dicks are going to split the prize money), I think Danielle will win the game because she is the less loathed of the two and won a total of seven competitions. Dick was obnoxious to the point where he should have been disqualified and has damaged the "Big Brother" franchise, in my opinion.

Meanwhile, GuyTVBlog has compiled another Nick/Mike photo essay that you can enjoy after the jump and remember better times in the "Big Brother" house...

It was a pretty sweet episode of "Big Brother *" tonight. It started out in nauseating fashion with the father-daughter duo of Dick and Daniele jumping around and giggling like they had won the entire game already because they had made the final four. They shut Zach out so they could whisper and giggle about him in the next room.
Well, payback's a bitch.
Zach goes on to win the HOH compeition and suddenly, Daniele and Dick are vulnerable. Zach nominates daddy and daughter. They are indignant that he would dare to do this and vow revenge. Whatever does happen, it was awfully s-weet to see them squirm. Daniele made a strategic error when in stating her case pre-nominations, she told Zach that he would lose against her dad in the final two because Dick played the game best.
But the jury votes on the winner and there are likely plenty of former houseguests who probably think his bullying tactics were out-of-line rather than brilliant. What the little blonde waitress should have said was: "Zach, everyone loves Jameka. She does not have an enemy in the house. She will win if you are in the final two with her. She's gotta go."
Oh well.

Now this is how I like it. It was a double-eviction night on "Big Brother 8" with Jessica out on the first vote then her little boytoy Eric out on the second. Jameka was up both times against them as Evil Dick, Daniele and Zach pulled all the strings. Eric is funny but he was also a little worm. On his way out he said to the the evil trio: "Just keep in mind, you sent the Phliadelphia lawyer to the jury house."
As smart as they think they are, I gotta wonder if they were a little foolish in keeping Jameka. If she's in the final two, there's no way she won't win the whole thing. She has no enemies in the house and has managed to survive despite not being able to compete for HOH for five weeks.
Anywho, I gotta give the evil daddy-daughter combo their due: they have manipulated everyone and come back from the brink more than once and they have won clutch competitions when they needed to. That is why they are in the final four and Jessica and Eric - who made a deal with these devils a few weeks back - are not.

Yawn. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
Oops, sorry. I was about to write a little "Big Brother 8" recap and the thought of it made me a little sleepy. I just want this show to limp along to its conclusion. Let's face it, whoever makes it to the final two opposite evil Dick or mean girl Danielle will win the money. If they make it to the final two, they deserve the money.
Zach, as HOH, nominated nice girl Jameka and mostly nice girl Jessica who put him up last week. I can't pretend to care but I will say that I'd like to see Jessica go because she made a deal with the devil (Dick) a few weeks back and betrayed her friends.
She should find out what it's like to be double-crossed.
