I remember that show Mame. It was interesting to see his reactions. Too bad they didn't do it again but I can see how it would be a one time thing.

Well said Sidecar! I totally agree with you.

Sidecar...great idea!! Instead of putting another Eric in the house...the producers should take polls and then try to influence the HG's according to America's Choice...

That would be COOL...LOL

Part of the problem is calling shows like this "reality" shows. They are, and should be called, unscripted shows. They do not have to follow a script, they are not given lines to say, but the show is planned and edited to present what the producers want it to be.

"I think that is what bugs people the most, that they are led to believe that what they are watching is real, and they are being given a true representation of the thought processes and scheming that is taking place.

Exactly."

EVERY reality show has manipulation by the producers. You would have trouble finding one that wasn't.

THEY ALL ARE MANIPULATED WITH CREATIVE EDITING!

Like a stupid comedy. Take it for what it is and just have fun with it.

Look, nothing against James, but the television show on Tuesday was all about James, and the way they showed him is not the James I see.

How was it about Natalie? I am saying that they try to manipulate the audience...I never said I did not like James, just the situation.

I agree manipulation is what the DR does .. always have .... but what gets to me is they give all the options ...bla bla bla to Adam .... okay, now let him go and run it by his alliance ... it is the keeping him in the DR untill ceromoney and NOT letting him go and talk with his alliance group!!!

That to me is cheating for James .... James did NOT earn his right to be OFF the block .... DR did it for him.

"it is the keeping him in the DR untill ceromoney and NOT letting him go and talk with his alliance group!!!"

How do we know what Adam is saying is true? For all we know Adam is just saying the DR kept him in there to cover his but with his alliance for the decision he made. To me it's an easy excuse for him just to blame it on the DR.

Adam didn't need to talk to his alliance. He knew EXACTLY who they wanted to put up.

Exactly, Adam made a move for Adam, good for him and if the diary room helped him do it so be it.

Frogi...I agree that all "reality" shows are manipulated in some way. What makes Big Brother unique, however, is that it is a 24x7 production. Those who keep track of the live feeds are more aware of this manipulation than that which would go on in an episode of Survivor, for example. I say bring it more out in the open. I dont think it would spoil any of the fun and would be less of an insult to our intelligence.

I agree, I think Adam did what he wanted to do.

There isn't anything to stop him from saying the DR wouldn't him out.

I'm hoping James wins it and Adam tells him to use it on Sharon and Nat goes up.

I doubt James will use it if he wins it unless Adam encourages him to, he will lose jury votes if he does and right now besides working hard to stay in the house he is counting jury votes.

Can you say ... "Marcellus".

Every boneheaded move in BB history was done by their own freewill...Adam is no different.

A boneheaded move is a boneheaded move...the DR can't control that.

Good one Nickovtyme! Another unforgettable one was Ivette taking Maggie to F2 instead of Janelle, thus giving away $500,000 and denying us the ending so many of us wanted.

Oh yeah. I forgot about that one Tres. Did the DR coerce Ivette into taking Maggie? Nope, didn't think so! (And yeah, I did want Janelle to win!)

haha Costa, the DR didn't need to do any coaxing since Maggie had already worked her post-Cappy friendship mindmeld on Ivette.

Looks like Ryan won the veto...guess all of this was pretty moot.

What a great word "Moot" is....ranks right up there with "Behoove" and "Forsooth".

So Natalie is ticked she didn't get to talk with Adam before he nominated? What gives her the right? She isn't HOH. Adam said they wouldn't let him out of the DR? So could he be lying? James said DR wanted him to keep Matt for better TV. He knew better and did what he wanted. Every year manipulation theories and rigged outcomes drive me crazy. So Ryan won the POV? I guess the "James is the chosen one" theory can now rest.
