Wow-- Josh was STEAMING!

The last 10 minutes of that episode were the best by far...

Gerry may be marked in the house, but Josh is marked for life!

I have to say, I am not crazy about any of these people yet, but the quality of the shows are dramatically better than I remember last year.

They are giving the producers a lot of film to edit down into a good show!

I think Josh's reaction was very telling. Gerry was talking only about himself and Josh immediately took that as "Josh is King Racist of the Homophobes". Maybe Josh DOES need to examine his motives.

I concur Car. I also think that MAYBE the producers are a little more lax in the controversial pieces and are deciding to put them on air. That helps keep it interesting.

I think we would ALL be a lot more likeable and entertaining if somebody would edit our 24 hours down to the best 60 minutes every day!

Car, as far as we KNOW the entire speech was shown. Who knows, Gerry MAY have said something to get Josh upset indicting the entire group. But for now, I certainly saw nothing for Josh to be upset about, as Gerry said, "I only blamed myself, I didn't mention anyone else."

LOL Car, if you want 60 entertaining minutes out of me, you best set 2-3 weeks aside.... I just sit here and type and watch feeds/tv. I only pretend to work, my showers are quick, and the cats let me know when they're hungry. Until this is over, I know *I* won't be very entertaining... poor hubby.... hee hee!

It sure surprised me that they showed the girls in their shaving cream bathing suits but not sure the audience with no feeds will figure out that is what that was....and Amy handled that situation very well in my estimation.

Car, you said, "entire speech shown." It was my understanding that we had FOH when that meeting was taking place on the live feeds. We don't KNOW for a fact that we saw ALL of Gerry's speech because we don't have the live feeds to compare it to. He MIGHT have said something that would make Josh's totally illogical response make more sense.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending Josh, just saying we can't say with 100% certainty that we saw the whole thing. Although, even if we did't see the whole thing, I'm sure we got the gist of it. ;-)

From Car (thanks!! BTW from a Westy)
So far, little seen of Chiara, Tonya is the invisible woman (we wish!), Eric is silent, not much is seen of these three!

GEE, I wonder why...{LOL} Sure they (Eric, Roddy Chia, Lisa, and Tonya) think they are giving CBS plenty of stuff for the cameras...It's just not going to be for the regular show. I'm sure somewhere in their midst CBS is partners with something like Cinemax after dark or something similar right?? {LOL}

Yeah, she is a cutie pie, but all of the Gerry bashing is getting to me lately.

Only *I* can do that. ha ha

Seems like what is fun for me in the TV show is to see what these people say in the diary room...

The edited stuff we know from the live feeds, but seeing Marcellus have a "nervous breakdown" or Danielle imitating all her fellow HG's is something we would not know. I am liking the TV show MUCH better than last year!

What did you guys think about the scene where Lori INSISTED they confront Gerry about handwashing after the bathroom? I had seen a bit about it in the live feeds and a couple of msgs on the boards but didn't realize it got that heated.

My thoughts: I think Lori did get herself wound up a little (okay, a lot!) but I totally got her point, too, especially at the beginning how she started the whole thing, mocking 'the beautiful people' running their hands through their hair constantly (Lisa! Chiara! GUILTY!) ... and I don't think she said anything about how Lisa wears a thong a lot and surely must adjust it at some point, after which I doubt she rushes to wash her hands. I agree it's ideal to wash hands after using the bathroom but (without getting too graphic here) unless someone is spastic or something, it's not like they're going to get filthy just using the restroom in a normal way.

FURTHERMORE (okay now I'm getting wound up too!) the ones that are so hot on washing their hands, do they use their elbows to turn the faucets the way Gerry did later to exaggerate that he "got the hint"? Or do they come out of the bathroom and immediately touch the faucets with their FILTHY DIRTY hands? Because unless they are careful to also wash the faucets (or not touch them to begin with) they're not doing anybody any favors by washing their hands... the next person to touch the faucet handles will get the AWFUL HIDEOUS germs anyway!

Okay, rant mode off... sorry folks... after seeing tonight's show I just had to see what everyone else thinks, because I had to side with Lori on this one. I agree with her, the 'perfect people' sitting around talking as a group about something they found so 'disgusting' and 'nasty' instead of one of them simply going up to Gerry privately and telling him---- it was cowardly and petty and just like a clique in school that thinks they're so superior and smug.

CAr, thanks for starting this thread, I was watching American Idol and just finished watching my tape of BB, and have some comments/questions.

First, I am an Amy fan! That girl is much smarter and deeper than she first presents herself to be.
She always looks nice w/o looking trashy, and I loved the dress she wore to the Luau.
Something else I noticed, she has perfect diction. Some people may not hear it because of her accent, but its there. She is well spoken.
And the way she handled the bathroom incident was class all the way.

Loved Marc's story about his fiance! He had all the girls enraptured. I believed him when he said he was in the moment (meaning he was sincere) but he was aware that it was a good bonding opportunity. I think the only thing that Josh may be right about is that if Marc stayed past the first week he could give the rest a run for the money.

(sorry to be so long winded, I can't get the live feeds so this may all be old hat to some, more to follow.......)

Ok, the Lori/Jerry/Danielle handwashing thing.

The way I saw it was, they weren't being mean when talking about Jerry, just how to approach the subject. Lori pushed the issue. I find her extremely annoying just from the limited time I see her on the show and would like to know if she comes across as this ditzy on the live feeds all the time like that?

I thought Danielle handled it well with Jerry, and all was resolved.

They way they showed it on the show, with Jerry putting his hands in the salad, even if he HAD washed his hands first, it would have grossed me out. He couldn't have used a utensil to toss??

More.............

Webkitty - I bet Amy's diction is so good because she has competed in pageants, I think I saw somewhere (plus on the show she said she's 'been in a lot of contests and knows how to act when you don't win'). I like her more now than I initially did, too, and especially liked how she said after Chiara's catty comment ('don't say I didn't try to connect!') that she just does her own thing, doesn't try to jump in and go along with the crowd. Gotta like someone who has the confidence to do that.

Did anyone else notice on the show during the competition when they were all running back and forth to the house to look for missing things, all the ladies "chest areas" looked pretty much like you'd expect them too, considering the laws of physics. There was movement, natural motion. Poor Tonya's storebought goods, bless 'em, barely moved even when she was flat-out running. Pls don't jump on me for looking at the ladies chests! (Not like they were easy to avoid, given the outfits they were all wearing, yeesh.) And I'm not even really bashing Tonya, obviously a lot of people love that look regardless of whether it's real or not real. But in all seriousness, for some reason that particular scene of all the other girls running, flopping around a bit like natural women do, and then Tonya running and staying pretty much in place - it seemed sad to me for some reason. Kind of like, man, does she even realize what she's done?? Not on a moralistic kick or anything, I'm faaaar from a prude, but just on a 'basic humanity' tip -- it just looked so very unnatural, unreal, untouchable... I don't know. Sad, somehow.

Yeah yeah yeah I know 99% of the men out there are going "YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR MIND, GET OUT OF MY LINE OF VISION SO I CAN PUT ON THE SLO-MO AND WATCH IT AGAIN!" :)

Okay, okay, just my thoughts. Your mileage may vary...

Also, Tonya is hardly shown at all. I wonder how people that don't read a board like this will perceive her? I know what she "really" like, from reading posts here, but the show doesn't really portray it. The bathroom scene went fast and was rather vague compared to the blow by blow I got here! LOL!

Others that are not "shown" Jason and Roddy. Now I know from reading the posts here that Jason hasn't had too much to say, but the "show" is keeping the interaction that I have been reading about concerning Roddy under wraps, so to speak. Was hoping to see some of this mirroring I have been reading about.
