BIG BROTHER alert: For anyone with Tivo or satellite TV
Remember when Janelle won HOH a few minutes ago by guessing "275"? Her original answer was "300", but it was held upside down.

She cheated.

She'll make a good Republican.

Anyone else catch that? If you have satellite or Tivo, replay it and you'll see for yourself. Hopefull, BIG BROTHER's producers will catch it too and get her evicted.

1. I wish they would make another "Spin" doc
That was good. I loved that. I would love one for today with Rummy, Cheney and the like.

2. Well, I hadn't watched it yet...

But, now that I know what happened... I'm glad Janelle won, even if under such circumstances. I hate hate hate the "friendship alliance".

At least I don't know who was evicted yet, even if I can guess, so I can still watch my recording. On edit, I figured it out. Duh.

8. Oh!!! Me too!!!!
I hate the "friendship alliance". Cappy/Eric is a winger. He told Kaysar he was against the Iraq war, but I think that was a load of shit!

That entire "friendship alliance" seems so frickin rw. I can't stand any of them. They are either bullies or sheep that align themselves with rw bullies.




Janelle wears a shirt that says, "dude, where's my country" Gotta love her!

9. Someone in the TV Chat Group here on DU
Posted a link to a sight that gives the rundown on what happens in the house, and apparently after Jennifer made her backstabbing nomination the whole house just fell apart. Lots of screaming and fighting, and BB had to step in. I think I'll watch even though it's spoiled for me now, in case they show any of it, even if it will be edited to death. I wish I'd got the live feeds, now.

18. Yeah, I'm on the west coast
Even though the show is a guilty addiction, uh-I mean pleasure, I was thinking about not watching tonight because it looks like there isn't a chance for any of the people that I like to win. Either Kayser or Janelle goes home :cry:

After those two I like Howie & his friend, although not nearly as much. James is slime. The wingers are bullies. Yvette & Bo? are sheep.

It is one thing to be a sheep, but when you align yourself with bully wingers, I have no sympathy. although it does look like Yvette is making a secret alliance with slimy James. If she were to "F" over maggy, I may forgive her.

Oh goodness, how pathetic I sound! This really is the only t.v. obsession I have, other than West Wing---which I am anxiously awaiting.

I am rather embarrassed at exposing my guilty pleasure :blush:

19. Don't be embarrassed.
Nothing wrong with it. It's TV, after all :) I discuss my trashy reality tv watching obsession with pride.

23. Pithlet:
How big was your candlelight vigil turnout in Tennessee? How the red states did last night kind of interests me.

3. Notify the show...they don't want cheaters in there anyway
plus, it would confirm the cheater by the reviewers for the show who are pouring over it now...even Survivor had replay to see when someone cheated and did a Do Over.

4. When I see Big Brother Alert
I kinda expected something a tad more important than a reality show.

14. So that's what this is about... a reality (?) show.
Guess I just don't watch enough tv... never heard of it.

5. until this gets moved to the lounge...
She put up 275 before the correct number was announced. Is there a rule that once you write down a number you can't change it?

And why do you think Jannelle is a republican? James is the only announced republican and her best friend in the house was of Iraqi descent.

Personally, I was thrilled she won!

7. Me, too!
If I have to find justice in a reality show, so be it. ;)

I absolutely despise the "friendship" group -- especially Jennifer. I don't think anyone could sink any lower than she did by going back on her word last week. "I didn't lie, I just went back on my word." Julie Chen smirked when she said that.

10. Big Brother getting discussed in GD, of all places.
Kind of humerous, really :) In the midst of all this serious discussion we're nattering away about BB like a bunch of people huddled in the corner at a noisy party.

11. Meeeeeeeeee too.
Kasar was put back in the house with 82% of the vote by the American people (we at DU helped...yay!) and Jennifer was a backstabbing little bitch and slapped us all in the face by nominating Kasar. James IS a repuke and I wish his ass would go. I can't STAND him. I didn't like him before I knew he was a repuke, but after he confessed his support of the illegal war...that-was-it. He needs to go. I think Jennifer is FINISHED.

As for the OP question, Janelle gave the correct answer BEFORE Julie read the total. Janelle didn't cheat. :hi:

13. Yep. If she changed her answer from 300, so what.
Edited on Thu Aug-18-05 08:21 PM by 8_year_nightmare
She gave her changed answer before Julie revealed the answer.

15. there was a pause before Julie announced the winner
so I bet they were deciding whether or not it was a problem that she changed her answer. I noticed the pause because I was wondering if (hoping it was) okay. I guess it was!

6. That's right.
Why did she change her answer? Did she hear it before?

20. Why would you want the weirdos out
I don't watch big brother but, wouldn't a house full of weirdos be more entertaining than a house full of nice normal boring people?

24. I suppose you're right,
but I hate it when people so vile and underhanded get ahead. It's too much like our government.
