I'd had enough after the first few minutes. I could just invision BB turning off the feeds and telling them how to act nicey nice and rip apart everyone else for them daring to do a whole lot less than either of you did so we can entertain the masses and then you can both go back to being your normal self-righteous, miserable selves. Or else. LOL.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who enjoyed last night's show Zachsmom! I liked the format and yes, it did feel like Survivor when they walk by each person's torch and talk about them. Nothing wrong with that. I enjoyed seeing the old footage and frankly would have enjoyed more older footage and less of the recent stuff. But I can see how non-Danato fans wouldn't have liked the show. But I got a big kick out of it.

I think CBS could have insisted BB doing some of the things they plan for Tuesday? Would that have been possible? They don't have near enough time for just 1 hr on Tuesday.

I just wish they would show more fun bits then the whole replay of the ice tea thing, etc. Not just b/c it was D/D but I wished that they showed a bit of each HG-I have to admit it was fun to see Joe in the bit about Jen's picture!

I agree that the show was a joke. All it did was help push the plotline that AG wants to have at the finale.

There were parts of the show that were OK, parts that were just a waste. I did get the feeling that it was "scripted"...in the sense BB asked D/D to comment about the HGs. I couldn't help but wonder if D/D were shown the out takes and then asked to comment. Certainly BB could have taken D/D's comments and found the supporting out takes but it just looked like it was the other way around. I thought it interesting that BB focused on a lot on negatives, showing the HGs for the most part at their worst. Yes, there were some light moments but the overall tone was a critical view of the HGs or the more heated moments in the house. I've not cared much for this particular nex-to-the-last show in any season, pretty anti-climatic for the most part. This one was maybe the worst because it's more or less "all in the family" for the D/D's.

Well........ So glad I watched Design Star where a worthy opponent won a tv show. GO KIM ! I taped BB on Sunday night and it appears that I missed absolutely nothing, nada, zip, so I will erase it and not waste my time and electricity watching. It is sad yet funny to see so many people disgusted with the end of the Donato saga. Many of us could have prediceted Dani's current behavior. My feelings on Dick have gone back and forth all season som,etimes he just looks like a broken old man that I feel sorry for and Dani has remained the same. So here's to Dick wining all the $$$.....ENJOY and I sure he remebers Vincent and as Jameka says.........HIS MOMMA.

I was so disappointed with last night's show. It was more scripted than a soap. I wanted to see "the best of BB8", not the "Donato hour". It was nice to see some of the other houseguests for a change of pace.

'Taped it. I flipped over to BB, when the Emmys commercial came on. I'll not watch it, as Dick's actions made me queasy, yet again. 'Horrible, horrible "show."

Yes, it was scripted. The other night a day after or 2 days after the final 2 comp, they went to Trivia and came back and Daniele said that she wasn't going to redo her whole makeup too, but they were instructed to get back into the attire that they wore when they won final two and fix her hair back that way too. They both went and changed clothing and she fixed her hair and she also said that they were supposed to go back and reminisce about Joe..., but they cut off the rest of what she was saying.

Although it was scripted...I enjoyed it more than I thought I would...Dick was pretty real about it.

I just wish the show was on cable so they could show Dick uncensored in his various glorius tirades so America could see what this guy was really like instead of the watered down whitewash they have done all season. Although I am not sure some of it could even be shown on cable.

They have shown Dick in being a *ick to everyone so far, I have to question what are you watching that is different from most of us watching? Dick burned Jen's hand, heck they showed that, they showed Dick attacking Amber, Jameka, Eric, Dustin,my goodness, what the heck was watered down? Nothing!

We all see Dick as his is, Farts, Spits, Insults, but we also see the human side and the integrity that he has. He is the most truly "human" guy that we have seen yet on BB. Sometimes the truth just hurts when were used to seeing the fake acts that people give us on a regular basis.

Thankfully, I don't seem to know any of those "truly human guys." My friends have a few social graces. I will say that, under it all, Dick has a big heart.

I don't know what people have seen, but Dick has been a bully to a house of 20 somethings. I dont really see the integrity he's supposed to have. He's a vile person, and only shows a nice(r) side when things are going his way. Dani has picked up the same personality. She's the so called sweet person who is willing to talk when she's not in jeopardy of being put on the block, but as soon as she doesn't get her way....once again, she goes into attack/baby mode. Sorry its really hard to look up and respect these two childish people who can't seem to handle things when its not going the way they want.

I like that Dick is very human and not fake. And ironically, I find all of the HGs to be mean and nasty in their own unique ways -- it's just Dick's was much more in your face and foul -- although, his language didn't bother me so much. I don't find the reactions to him to be particularly surprising, because I think people in general have trouble admitting to their own dark side or nastiness. Dick is a reminder of that. I dislike hidden nastiness, however, much more than dick's style which I consider to be much more bark than bite JMO.

The thing I noticed last night was--when Dick was yelling, etc; everyone just stood there and no one had the guts to say stop it or stand in between them.

Dick and integrity? I have never seen anyone act with less integrity on BB! I think if Dick had any caring and compassion in his heart he would not have verbally assaulted Jen the way he did. I just don't see the same person that some of you do.

Just a quick question here for our many observant TVCHr's. On the BBAD last night, when D/D were talking about each of the past houseguests, did anyone here notice Dani tell Dick that she knows about a video clip that shows the so-called "gay" side (Dani's words) of Nick? (I DO remember BB showing this clip on one episode). Then Dick said something like "No way, how do you know that?" Dani said, ______ said it!" (I could not hear the name she said) If this is the case, how could Dani know about this video clip? Hmmm....... just wondering. Did anyone else hear this, or had I fallen asleep and imagined it???

Yeppers. The integrity bar is quite literally in the sewer. I'm just wondering how they can outDick Dick next year. Perhaps OJ will be on parole by then.

Now that's a heck of a good idea Chippy. A house full of inmates. Eviction means going back to jail. Luxury house versus jail. Could be some serious blood letting and yep probably outdick Dick.

Jarriluvs, YES!!!!! I saw this and I was a bit surprised. I kinda had an idea that she was being told certain things, because she made a comment about something Jameka said in the diary room(from earlier this season) on another BBAD to Dick. I was wondering if this was something Jameka had told her, but Dani started mentioning certain DR people by their first names. So you know I wouldn't be surprised in the least bit if she's being tipped off about certain contestants in the game. I was really tripping out when she mentioned the gay montage of Nick. This was something she wasn't supposed to know anything about considering she hasn't seen the show. There has been a lot of things that have been strange about Dick and Dani. I know her brother mentioned that they both made it pretty close as one of the pairs in season six, but because Dani wasn't old enough they didn't make it. I found that quite interesting considering they were supposed to be estranged for two years. I mean, not to say they haven't had their problems over the years(they can't seem to keep track off how long they haven't talked), but it wouldn't be the least bit surprising to find out BB promised to give them a chance on the next regular season of BB. So the whole act of being surprised was all an act. I say this because one night on BBAD, they both said if they made it they knew other one would be there. This show is a complete farce, and how people can fall for this estranged father/daughter storyline(because thats what it is) is beyond me. Think about it? All season they've focused on Dick trying to rebuild a relationship with Dani. The CBS broadcast LOVED focusing in on them. Now they've got their perfect fairytale ending Daddy and Daughter working together in the end, and became the final 2. GMAB!

ITA, 100% Caramella! It just disturbs me that no one is bringing this to CBS's attention and/or protesting it. It almost seems that D/D blatantly make these statements w/o concern for being caught. To me, people that have access to outside info should not be entitled to a half-million dollars. JMHO!

Jameka's "Ya Momma" was the best part of the show. The rest was a big bucket of funk.

I absolutely loved this show and all the recaps. Some of the funniest moments (like Jen's totally inopportune time to ask for a white belt) were recapped. Love it. Love the Donatos!

I enjoyed the recap episode even though I was sure I wouldn't. And I agree with an earlier poster that Jameka's "Yo mama" was priceless. I hadn't remembered it being shown before.

I LOVED that Jameka. The kick-butt, takin' names Jameka. By the time she left the show, she was too subdued and watered down for words. I know she dialed it down to stay in the game, but it was kinda sad to me.
