Curlyq | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:22 pm     I wouldn't have cared less if Jason and Amy had hooked up. Liked them both but I wouldn't have enjoyed the coupling. I just want them to play for themselves. |
Tracyck | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:23 pm     Does anyone have absolute confirmtion that Eric and Lisa are up? I am watching the feeds and in a chat, and we have not heard a whisper of it. |
Skeldragon | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:24 pm     Keiffer, I don't get your point. I don't think it's horrible that Eric and Lisa have a relationship...I actually think they're much better together than Roddy and Chiara. I'm just not interested - not in them, not in R and C, and not even Jason and Amy. Now, if it was Jason and Marcellus, by God, I'd agree with you 100%! |
Gouraphik | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:24 pm     It probably wouldn't affect me all that much. I mean, I like Amy, but any romance in the house doesn't alter what should be in the strategic self-interest of each HG. I'm admittedly interested in the strategic elements of the game. That's my focus...I can't speak for anybody else, however. |
Lauram | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:25 pm     Reminder to BB4 houseguests: After Nomination, just look at the camera and tell everyone who is nominated! |
Firebird05 | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:25 pm     No absolute confirmation yet but it is the general impression. |
C1mag | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:25 pm     Hey Keiffer I noticed you made a comment about the Amy and Marci friendship and how some really liked it. I was one of them but was very happy to see Amy go at this point. Thats my best example as to why some watch and what they expect. Like I said... I love the game. Friendships and romance are for a change of pace ocassionally but mean nothing to me if they are seperated. Would the public be upset if Amy and Jas would have found love and then departed? Nahhh! Thats the game. If the show has hooked you by now then you will watch til the end no matter who is in the game. |
Skeldragon | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:25 pm     Tracyk, not me. I'm just making assumptions based on a few comments. I haven't heard anyone mention any definitive names though...still waiting (impatiently). |
Keiffer | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:26 pm     LOL Skeldragon.... great line. Dixie, you mean like Marcellas saying in his goodbye to Amy ther her leaving will be avenged? That sort of being upset for the game being played. |
Firebird05 | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:27 pm     Dani now telling Lisa that she is staying not to worry about it |
Muse | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:28 pm     I think it might actually be okay for the clique to get rid of Lisa right now, assuming the nominations stand. Chiara would buddy up with Danielle more than ever, and the guys would still assume that Jason was with them. Jason would have to vote for Eric to get four votes...they'd know what he did, and he'd become a target. But actually...I think an even smarter move would involve Marcellas having a long talk with Gerry. Maybe he could convince him to get rid of Eric in a tie vote. Danielle, Marcellas, and Chiara could vote for Eric. Jason, Roddy, and Josh could vote for Lisa. |
C1mag | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:29 pm     I can now verify that it is Eric and Lisa by the comments of Dani and Roddy. Dani promise Lisa she is safe and Roddy just promised Eric he is safe. So we have our nominee's. Eric and Lisa! |

Wedge | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:32 pm     I havent heard that Lisa and Eric were a bad couple per say..but if you take a look at it...( geesh I wont even go down that road ) Simply put, its a game...Some are playing it sexual , some are playing it real..but its still a game. |

I say, let 'em campaign! If I was Gerry, I'd ask Roddy to step aside from competing for the Veto, assuring him that Lisa's going. I'd tell Josh to try to prevent Eric & Chiara from winning the Veto competition (if possible), making it seem that I want Lisa to stay in the hotseat. Then I get a Clique member to win and use Veto, removing Lisa, since it'll be in their best interests. If Danielle pulls her, spin it (no matter what Danielle says) to seem that it was a "girl power" thing. If Jason or Marcellas pulls her, tell the others that Danielle must've put them up to it. Then you gun down Roddy. Put him up, and moooove him out. The problem is...I'm not Gerry. UH OH! |
Zachsmom | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:32 pm     I'd feel the same Keiffer.. I don't watch for the romance.. You say that sex sells..but you forget that not everyone is buying.. |
Bridgetlovesbb | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:32 pm     LOL Sawyou! I noticed that last night on the show! I was cracking up!!!!! |
C1mag | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:34 pm     Gour that was going to be my next suggestion... You and me need to be in that house and get it awwwwwwn and get that King outta there! |
Texastillie | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:38 pm     Lauram - LOL! |
Keiffer | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:41 pm     That is a point Zachsmom, not EVERYONE is buying, but for good or bad a majority are. And in the end we have this show only if ratings are decent, and you need the show to apeal to a majority of TV viewers. Believe me Arnie and the other producers, and CBS want there to be romance angles to play on the show. Remember bringing Shannons BF from outside the house on the show? How long would have been before we saw Erics outside girl? Now that will never happen. |
Gouraphik | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:41 pm     Certainly, C1mag! But I get the $500K, OK? I like the idea of using Roddy's arrogance against him (that's why putting him up when the Veto's used, checkmate style, would be so effective). Let him think that you're his willing slave...then POW! Right in the kisser. I also like the idea of using Josh's fear and loathing of the girls to your advantage. He'd be so blinded by his own schemes and plans that he wouldn't realize that by helping himself, he's helping you too. It'd be priceless. Of course, you'd have to get rid of him ASAP after that, but you deal with that when the time comes. |
Llkoolaid | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:43 pm     That would be in a perfect world Gour, but Gerry isn't perfect. I'll keep my fingers crossed. |
Peachie | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:44 pm     Eric leaves and Roddy goes after his girl, all a part of Roddys master plan. Would make for some good live feeds dontcha think? LOL Shame I cant stay up late to watch it if it happens but thank goodness I have alot of nice people in here to transcribe and screen cap it. ;o) |
Gouraphik | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:46 pm     If Shapiro really wants a romance to last, or this particular one (Eric & Lisa) to survive, he can do it. He can pull some "deus ex machina" move out of his hat and give Lisa immunity or something. But again, that's not what I want. If somebody else wants that, fine. But why should the HG's treat any couple as an untouchable unit? It simply makes no strategic sense whatsoever. |
C1mag | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 06:50 pm     Keiff I have a question... Why would you be concerned about ratings for Arnie? Do you not have the live feeds or something? Are you relying on the edited TV version to satisfy your tastes for this show? This show will be picked up next year no matter what. Look at the first season. In the end there wasn't ANY romance and it had enough staying power to bring us to season 3. By the way, Shannons bf was brought in because Will made an issue of the boyfriend thing so they rolled with it when she was nominated. After she was gone they moved on to the Nicole and Will love/hate issue. My understanding is that Eric's alleged girl was a new love interest so it would fall flat if they interviewed her and I doubt she would be interested in having an opinion since neither one dogs on her. I am getting the clear picture that you watch this thing for skin and love so I guess this is why it would concern you if Lisa got evicted. To each his own I guess. I've often said that those big guys that sit in those buildings really don't get the viewers at all. They only take a stab at it and guess. As a viewer I could care less about "love" and skin. Take a real poll and you will find that more are watching for the game and less for the "love" thing. It's too creepy to think in that environment you could build a healthy "love" type of relationship. |
