Dr. Will making the Nicole doll had to be one of the funniest moments in BB history. It was part of a challenge and I remember Nicole saying rather crossly, "I don't do crafts!" and then Will offered to make the doll for her. I was crying it was so funny.

I would like to have seen Eric sharing his thinking and strategy via the DR. It may or may not have made a difference if he had explained his thinking behind his reason for targeting Nick. I thought at the time he had good rationale. Though he may not have been planning on doing it the week he did, when Dick and Amber jumped on the "Get Rid of Nick" wagon, the timing was perfect for him.

I don't know if it's Eric's personality or BB wouldn't let him spend much time explaining his strategy and campaigning for our support, but I think it might have made a difference to us, the voters.

JEN told DANI that the DR told her she was going to put her up and to go to ttalk to her to convince her not to lol, then the DR voice comes on saying "hg's you are not allowed to talk about your diary room sessions"

DANI reveals a few moments later the DR is pressuring her NOT to use the VETO and leave the nominations as is. Mmmmm. Seems the DR doesnt want JEN to go home this week and does want AMBER to go

If BB started airing 3 hour shows we could definitely learn all of Eric's strategy. I love our AP most of the time but he lacks the ability to "sum up".

I guess the DR could not pressure Dani.

Justalittlebean's post supports the fact that while the BB producers may be influencing the game, they do not have absolute control as has been suggessted.

The DR may pressure or try to talk HG's into doing certain things, but they certainly cannot FORCE them too...

The final say still remains with the HG's....

In the past the only reason to watch the TV shows (other than Thursdays live show) was to see the DR comments that we can't see on the feeds. Now even the DR comments are so set up that it is not even interesting to watch that. I always looked forward to seeing what the HG said in the DR to find out if they were really playing someone or being real. Now we just get silly scripted talking about a Food Challenge or something else rather boring. I want my old BB back. I don't like the way BB is interfering and manipulating this into the Donato BB show. Who made them the stars?

Lake_gal I totally agree. There was no reason to watch the shows except Thursdays except for the DR and finding out what the players real intentions were. Now sadly the DR is nothing more than BB scripting.

Mike and Boogie were by far my favorite in the Diary room. Danielle in season three was, if I recall correctly, the first to really be truthful in her DR sessions and the first to really be refreshing. This year I'd have to say Dick's, Dustin's and Joe's were more interesting with Amber being more amusing as she cries over everything.

This year they don't seem to be coaxing a whole lot out of them in the DR like they have in the past years. I wonder if Boogies' manipulation of Erica made so public had anything to do with that.
