If you missed the episode tonight here is a link to the full version. People are asking what ‘veoh’ is. It is basically like youtube.com but you can load longer videos

Amber evicted 3-1 the one was Jameka.

Julie Chen also informed us that next live show which would be next Thursday will be a double eviction week! We have been speculating that this was going to happen soon and here it is.

Jedi Janie from season 6 and All-Stars will be hosting the next POV competition. Many Janelle fans are excited to see her back in the Big Brother house as she was very popular in her seasons.

I’m also wondering why the jury house hasn’t been shown yet. Usually tonight they would of shown Dustin and possibly Jen and then next Thursday Amber entering the jury house but they haven’t yet. Did Jen walk? Who knows what is up with that.

EWs interview with Alison Gordner

‘Big Brother’: Burning Questions Answered!

We asked exec producer Allison Grodner about a decision to punish rule-breaking Jen, how exactly America’s Player works, and more

By Lynette Rice

Say it ain’t so — Big Brother 8 is more than halfway over! We asked executive producer Allison Grodner to take a time out from refereeing the latest fight between Dick and Jen to talk about America’s Player, the overuse of the back-door strategy, and what makes this season so craptastically better than the others.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Anyone who watched Big Brother: After Dark this week saw how Jen went off slop to eat burgers and cottage cheese. Why did you penalize her? (Jen’s punishment will be revealed on tonight’s show.)
ALLISON GRODNER: We always reserve the right to give penalty nominations when rules are broken that are not safety violations or something so extreme that you should be ejected. But this was unprecedented [someone who was already nominated breaking a rule].

CBS on their player (Eric Stein)

As Big Brother 8 has progressed, questions have come up about America’s Player, Eric, and what he can or can’t do. Indeed, many people have speculated and debated these points. But I decided to go to the source, CBS, to find out.

One thing I think would be nice is to have a running tally of how Eric is doing on his tasks. We haven’t seen one, but CBS told me, “As of Thursday’s show (8/2), Eric has completed 7 of 9 America’s Player tasks.” This means he’s earned $10,000 so far, and is three tasks away from another ten grand, as he gets that much for every five tasks completed.

It would appear one task he failed is sleepwalking into Joe’s bed until Joe woke up (we saw him get a “buzz” for that one). As for the other, I’m not entirely sure. He failed in his attempt to get Kail evicted this past week and the week before. That would seem like at least three failures. However, the wording is sometimes different on his tasks – in some cases he has to attempt things, in others he has to succeed. So perhaps that’s the situation here. Like I said, it would be nice to see a running tally of how he’s doing.

Craz-ee night in the Big Brother 8 House

Its hard to tell if Eric, Dustin or Jessica won the Head of Household tonight. The celebrations were just as much for each of them. Jessica’s smile didn’t leave her face for most of the night and Dustin and Eric recruited to the work out room to jump up and down as did Dustin and Amber later on. Daniele and Dick took to the round bed room where she sobbed “I wanna go home”. Dick comforted for around a hour before leaving to get something to drink. – Video

Smiles all around with the exception of Dick and Daniele, Zach and Jen seemed to be in between. Many of the house guest got to receive Dicks verbal assault. I can see where he is coming from. Dustin was suppose to be the 4th vote to evict Eric but he changed that. Once again the ‘mysterious’ vote has a popped up making it look like it’s been Dick all along but we all know it wasn’t. Dustin said very soon after the live show “It wasn’t me” Dick, “It wasn’t you what?”, “I wasn’t the vote”. Hmm I wonder who it was then? – Eric and Dustin celebrate – Language

CBS says NO to banner planes

You can read the letter sent to Blue Yonder Air and their response here.

TMZ Reports:

The producers of the CBS reality show “Big Brother” have grounded a pilot they say planned on ruining the show.

Lawyers for Endemol USA Inc. sent a cease and desist letter to Jerry Hider of Blue Yonder Air, to stop him from flying his plane over the “Big Brother” house. According to Endemol, Hider was planning a flyover carrying a message that told the other players in the house that Eric is “America’s Player” — essentially ruining part of the game.

Endemol alleges that by doing this, Hider’s proposed actions would violate a “tort of intentional interference of an advantageous business relationship” — or, in layman’s terms, “Dude, don’t ruin the game!”

Live Feed re-cap August 4th – early morning 5th

Warning: This post does contain spoilers.

Some surprising things happened today, Dick and Erics dinner time blow-out, Jen and Daniele talk game, Dick and Jen call truce, Zach is looking for a record and more.

Daniele explained to Jen their plan and their reasoning behind it. At first Daniele was hesitant in telling Jen they are going for Eric not Zach this week but finally she tells her. She let her in on Eric and why they think that way but Jen tells Daniele that its not Eric telling Kail things its her telling Kail. Either way Eric is still the ‘leak’ the LNC have been looking for whether it’s to Jen or Kail. Thanks to the banner flown over the house during the recent HOH competition things have been put into perspective for Dick and Daniele. Jen seems to go along with the plan. Vid1, Vid2 “I’ve been working with Eric” -Jen

After or maybe before the power of veto competition today (not shown on feeds) Dick threw Jens clothes all over the room and in retaliation Jen threw Dicks cigarettes in the pool. Luckily for him he has a few packs still remaining in the HOH room. Later Dick and Jen joined each other in the HOH room for some game talk but Dick also called a truce. “If you lay off Daniele and all that Sh!# I’ll lay off you and we can co-exsist” “I will watch what I say and I won’t go over the line I promise you”. Shocking yes! They also hug!! We saw another soft side of Dick later but more of that below. Check out the videos here, Vid1, Vid2, Vid3, Vid4

They’re on to Americas Producers Player

Last night during the Head of Household competition the banner that flew over the Big Brother 8 house has stirred things up in the house. Dick and Daniele were convinced that it is now Eric but Eric is covering his butt as much as he can. The vote is still unspoken for, it was blamed on Jen at first but now they are looking at other options. It was Eric and America knows it, Dick & Daniele are on to it, Jessica is believing everything Eric tells her and Eric is blaming Nick, Jen or Zach.

Eric and Jessica talk on the hammock – Video 1, Video 2, Video 3

I feel bad for Jessica, I wish she wouldn’t believe him so much. Dick told Jessica last night that they thought it was Eric and told her not to say anything to anyone. Of course Jessica went to Eric and told him. This made Eric mad because in his words he’s been the most genuine and trustworthy person in the house. Earlier in the Big Brother 8 house Jessica said she didn’t want to be the girl who was played, Eric assured her she wasn’t and that he wasn’t lying to her. In fact according to him the only thing he was worried about when the banner flew over was that she would think he was a liar, not anyone else.

Is CBS freaking out that one of their lame twists may be discovered

Bye Bye Nick Starcevic!

Nick Starcevic was voted out of the Big Brother 8 house tonight with a vote of 6-2. Eric and Zach were the only ones to vote out Kail this week. Producers Player [Eric] task was to try and get Kail evicted this week and while he voted for her to go he didn’t do much convincing in the house which has left some of the Nick fans a bit upset. Personally I think they made a wrong move evicting Nick this week. He would of been a strong ally for both Daniele and Dick. I’m sure Kris, Daniele Donatos boyfriend out side of the house is pleased with this weeks eviction. Nick and Daniele became rather close while living in the Big Brother 8 house and that caused alot of rumors of Daniele cheating on Kris. Even though Daniele also voted to evict Nick Starcevic this week.
