Oh, it's going to be fun week in the BB house.

Regarding the above suggestion that "America" should vote for Eric to nominate Dustin, if that would happen, couldn't he just be hanging out with (HOH) and Dustin in the HOH room and joking suggest that Dustin get nominated, and lay out a humorous justification for it? Essentially just do it while joking around and still have it qualify for AP contest?

He hasn't put any effort into any of his AP tasks that could get him in trouble. He does what he wants to do and what's best for him. I don't see why that would justify producer protection.

Reality News Online carried an interview with CBS that detailed all the requirements that Eric has as America's Player.

Given that CBS carried that whole "I Love Dick" segment on tonight's show, it's probable that someone else will be AC. If it is Amber I wonder what Eric will think. He doesn't know about the anti-semitic comments that would have precipitated that vote so would he think that America was just on his side because of her blowup? Of course, the ultimate irony in that situation is that Eric is Jewish.

That whole Dick lovefest that they ran tonight pretty much means that the producers are most decidedly NOT anti-Dick.

I think because she is going to be the first person in the sequester (sp?) house, so they're keeping the secret as to not influence the votes.

Kail isn't in sequester, that would mean there would be 8 votes for the finals. I think next week is the first sequester.

I dont think that she will be in the sequester house. Anyone eliminated from here on out is...also she kept saying she gets to see her family now.

ED will make this week hell...dont know why he was going off on Jameka of all people. I would have predicted he would have taken off Dustin's head.

Eric says that no one will ever drag his name through the mud again and accuse him doing things he didn't do.

I think he's actually believing his shit now.

Don't you think there has to be a reason that they didn't reveal who Eric is to Kail, nor show her any sort of taped response from him?

While I don't particularly like Eric or Dustin I am glad that they are both still in the house to help handle things when Dick inevitably attacks Jessica over her nominations. She doesn't really deserve what's about to come her way. Since he does like her, hopefully Zach will stick up for her too.

They didn't mention it with Mike either. It will probably be on the Early Show tomorrow.

Wish I can say I'm surprised by the outcome, but I'm not. I called the fix as soon as Eric was put up, BB and their stupid twists. I know it's game and all that, but I would personally feel far to bad to vote for a person who was basically threatened to ruin a person to make sure he had her vote. Maybe he would have used, maybe not, but I think that's crossing the line. Clearly it was true, but those guys are so concerned with the cash they're willing to overlook a person that low.

I really hope Jen or Zach wins at this point. Zach because he just seems like an ordinary dude, pretty boring and just there. Jen because she reminds of Janelle in that she wins everything.

I'm swearing off this show now as promised, to be honest it was a long time coming esp this year. Just a terrible group of people all around.

Actually, they did mention it at the very end of the interview. Her response was....

Fuck the late night crew, this is total bullshit and its fixed with Jessica as HOH. its turned into Dustin, Eric, Jameka, and Jessica Vs. Dick, Danielle, Zach and jen. Amber will side with Dustin no doubt. If Amber wasn't such an idiot to swear on on her daughter's life eric would have gone home. Dick and danielle will most likely go up this week, and if that happens i don't want a single one of them to win.

Supposedly, Eric let her out of that promise. She voted for him because it was better for her.

I think the difference between this year and any other season aside from season 1 and the love camp is the fact the the producers, with the AP angle are much more vested in keeping Eric in. And I'm sure they are in fact manipulating things to keep him in. When this season is over I imagine it will be a lot of talk by the other houseguests of the game being rigged.

I had no audio on my feed for tonights episode for the first 40 minutes and I missed the Amber tirade, and the I love Dick tribute. Bummer.

Well, that's it, I'm out.

It's one thing for the players to try to influence other players in the game, because that's the game and it's fair.

But when the producers bring in each of the late night crew for a very late night / early morning pow wow in the DR room and they immediately come out singing the praises of the person (Eric) they were just bad mouthing and ignorning a couple of hours previous, it's time to say enough is enough I'm not going to watch Big Brother anymore.

And with Amber's statement that the producers were trying to influence her vote, hey, where there's smoke there's fire!

I'm not saying Dick and Daniele are good people, hell none of them are, but at least Dick was mostly truthful and pretty loyal (except for believing the lies about Nick and voting him out).

The 10 minutes of the AD feed that I saw tonight just made me sick to my stomach. Eric is back in good graces with the LNC, just as if nothing ever happened. They're all laughing and plotting their strategies to get out Dick and Daniele as soon as possible.

I have no problem with Dick getting voted out, because his vicious behavior mostly towards the women, was a big turn off. But, whatever he does to the houseguests, this his last week, they all deserve BIG TIME.

Eric, was wrongfully saved tonight due to the producers unethical influence on people who were really tired after midnight and couldn't think clearly enough so that they would flip flop within a couple of hours.

I'm a man of my word, unlike everyone else in the Big Brother household. To continue to watch this and see all of the extra hate that is going to happen in the next couple of weeks because of what the producers did, well I don't need that.

I will probably watch the finals just to see how people react to the reveal of Eric, if it has not already happened during the course of the show.

I wish everyone well here and I will see you in the other threads, but it's time for a Big Brother break.

Now I need to find something else to do during the day and night!

Take care, Chris

I'm with you.
This was my first season I watched only because nothing else interested me.Then to see Eris the weasel do his thing and then get away with it because of outside interference...bullshit.You wont get my rating for that shit.
To think I gave this show a chance of all the years and this is the one to turn me off and prove to myself this was the very reason I never watched it in the first place.
I know I'm only one person but one less watching the show is one less rating.
CBS is on a roll with fucking things up this year.

Dustin is a manipulative queen
Eric is a little shit lying punk
Amber the Klingon cry baby cant think for herself
Jamika the Bible thumper who wants to eat Jesus is nuts
Jess the squeaker doesn't know up from down
Matt Damon clone Zach ..... does he even know he is in a game?
Dani "It's just so frustrating" is just annoying.Does she hate everything?
Jen ........ sorry, Jen is hot and I cant say anything bad
Dick...... DICK RULES!!!!!! He tells it like it is and isn't afraid to call you out on it.He may be brash and make comments he shouldn't and do things that upset others, but at least he doesn't lie to get what he needs.

People that 'bid' the highest had to do the action, and the people that 'bid' the lowest were out. Jen bid 3 or 4 so she got to stay in and doesn't have to sit out any.
