Long time ago, during the All-Star campaign, Bunky graced us with a wonderful chat session. I found his MySpace and sent him this message:

From: konamouse
Date: Jun 28, 2006 7:42 PM
SUBJECT: Thanks for the chat at TVCH

I unfortunately missed the live chat (I was working late that night). Wargod posted the transcript. Thank you so much for taking the time to join us. Your niece has been so supportive of you. I really admire how you have made so many great changes in your life (and affected the lives of others) since your television debut. I wish you all the best and hope you get what you really want this summer (and the rest of your life). You are a great man and deserve it.

And good luck on your improve career. I don't live in the LA area anymore (I grew up in Santa Monica but live in Las Vegas now), but if I did, I'd be down at ACME every week.

Hugs,
Heather aka konamouse

Here is his reply (albeit a few months later)

Heather,
You are so sweet.
Thank you for your kind words.
Hey, would you do me a favor and send CBS an email and request they bring me back for House Calls please? I would love that.
Thanks for your help,
Bunky

Go Bunky! He'd make Housecalls that much cooler.

I actually like Bunky but found him just a bit too bitter. But then I stopped watching Housecalls awhile back. I'd probably give him a try, but with a whole new cast, whoever does HC should make it about the HG for the season, not about the interviewer.

I thought Bunky was annoying on Housecalls. I can't decide who would be worse though another year of Marcellas or Bunky. Ugh. I think IF Marcellas is brought back that they should at least replace Gretchen with Lisa (BB3 Winner). At least Lisa is more affiliated with the show and she does live in LA and happens to be one of Marcy's good friends. I think that would be a good pair. Although the best pair or trio would be Jack, Jun, and Monica :-)

I vote for Jack, Monica & maybe Jun..although I really can't stand Jun she would probably be really funny and give some good contrast.

NO Marci or Gretchen...blah!

And I wouldnt think Janelle would be interested since its in CA, but who knows someone should aske her if she is interested, as I'm sure we could blast CBS with emails to get her on...at least she would watch the feeds and not just the shows!

I do not want to see Bunky on Housecalls either, I agree that he was bitter as well as I get the feeling from him that us fans are just a means to an end for him, he doesn't want to interact with us he just wants us to lobby for him to benefit himself...ie being on housecalls.

That being said I really hope Marci isn't host either!

Interesting! It's hard to choose anyone I'd like to see hosting housecalls...the whole thing is so snarky. [Like we're not here...hehehe!]

No Bunky! No Marcellas! Keep Gretchen (we need a moderator), but I would rather see someone totally new on Housecalls. Somone who doesn't necessarily want to be a celeb. Someone who has been out of the limelight. Someone urbane and smart and strategic.

What about Roddy?

Well, if it can't be me, Roddy is fine. I liked him, he was smart and funny. I never understood Danielle calling him the devil. She was so afraid he would win.

Please No Rob or Amber or Will or Janie etc. Why can't they just get one of the really great feed and show watchers that is as addicted to the feeds as most of us are,and have it be someone that can talk about it without taking sides or having a favorite. no show boating reality Tv stars

Please, please, please make watching the feeds a condition of hosting! It was so frustrating to hear callers want to talk about something that happened on the feeds and have Gretchen and Jase (or whoever else was sitting next to her at the time) not have a clue what they were talking about, and going on with their theories based only on what they saw on the last show!

This is so weird. I missed that new show last night on NBC called "Thank God You're here" so I went to NBC online to watch it. The first scene starts, and there's Gretchen!

Whoa, it wasn't Gretchen. When they got to scene 2, she looked a bit different, and then when the credits rolled, I looked up the girls names and her name is Maribeth Monroe.

Bunky makes an appearence in this MTV Movie spoof. Well, not "Bunky", but his real life persona (Bill Eegle gets the credit).

ITA on the requirement that the host of Housecalls (AND THE SHOW HOST AS WELL!) - watch the feeds - LIKE ITS THEIR JOB!!!

I loved Jack's blog last season, would really like him to host Housecalls.

Naja - I totally thought it was Gretchen too! After the show I went searching got TGYH credits to see if I was just crazy (missed the rolling credits). The same not-Gretchen does a cell phone company commercial they play here all the time (I forget which company...the one where the ads shoe dropped calls in the middle of conversatiosn and people think they blew something.)

But man, they could be sisters, huh?

Hey there Bunky Fans!! I received this email from Bunky and told him I would post it for his fans. :-)

Hey! How are you? Sorry I haven't written in so long. Lots of stuff happening.

I was wondering if you wouldn't mind helping me....

1. I was in a short which was entered in the MTV Short Movie's contest and it is in the Top 5! So 60 seconds of the short will be shown on Sunday June 3 at 8pm on the MTV Movie Awards show! I really hope it wins. The short with the most votes wins. Would you do me a big big favor and put the following link on your site/bb so folks can vote!! (Can you believe I'm asking for votes AGAIN?! LOL)


mtvmovieawards.yahoo.com

Vote for United 300

There are HOT men in this short!!! Check it out and vote please!

2. I am pretty sure I am being considered by CBS to co-host House Calls on cbs.com again this summer. But I think my competition is really stiff. I'm afraid they might be talking to Jase or Marcellas.

Can you please ask your viewers to contact CBS and request Bunky!! I don't have a specific email address, but just send emails to any CBS email address that folks can find. It will make a big difference in their decision. Or if folks want to call CBS at Television City in CA and ask for someone in the Internet department or the guy in charge of reality TV, Ghen Maynard the Head of Alternative Programming at CBS, that might work. You never know.

Thank you so much for your love and support.

Bunky

Another quick note from Bunky regarding an upcoming appearance.

If any of your folks live in LA and want to meet me, I will be doing an appearance for charity. www.thetrevorproject.org, this Friday at MJs bar in Silverlake. And a lot of other reality folks will be there too. It's called Reality Check.

Love,
Bunky

I wonder if they asked Kaysar??? I would take him over any of the above in a heartbeat. I've had enough of Marcellas to last a lifetime, and while I think once upon a time he did an awesome job on the show, when he caved and went all defensive about people he, and we, all bashed all year, he lost me. And that's not even taking into account the robe last year lol. Nope I've seen enough TYVM.

Bunky is someone I genuinely like and wouldn't mind seeing on there sometimes, but to me he just lacked something when he was hosting, although he was a gazillion times better than Jase.

And to be totally honest, I don't love how he asks for fan help (like this) when he needs it, but for the most part ignores us the rest of the time. And even when he does ask, he doesn't come and talk to us directly but goes through someone. Is it so hard to post and talk to us?? Nothing personal against those who have been kind enough to do his bidding, but why can't he ask us if he wants out help? Just my , but that just doesn't make me want to rush and do much. Especially since I think there are better possibilities (again JMHO).

I'd def take him over Jase. But I'd rather look and listen to Kaysar for an hour each day if someone would kindly give me that option. Truthfully I'm getting kinda bored with housecalls. I skipped it more than I watched it last year (a combo of boring season/boring shows). Hopefully both will be revitalized with new folks on there this summer!!! So my vote is for Gretchen and a former hg who will actually watch the show/feeds and be a straight shooter about what is happening. To me that is when HC is fun and worth watching.

As much as I like what I know of Kaysar as a person, I think he would be an incredibly boring host of House Calls. He's just too nice to ask tough questions. Maybe I'm wrong?

I DO NOT want to see Marcellas or Jase on Housecalls. If either one is a regular host, I will skip it altogether. I don't see how CBS can have Marcellas back after all the whining he did post game about the game being "fixed" for Janelle. <55>
