Bohica | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 10:15 pm     Could it possibly be that after watching Marcellas bash the other Houseguests behind their backs, especially his vicious backbiting on Gerry - the one who saved him from early eviction, no one from his family wanted to be there tonight? |
Sybilbb3oracle | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 10:26 pm     Noone could believe that he was stupid enough to not use the GPOV on himself! Why bring relatives when he couldn't possibly be leaving! Amy's parents were there I'm sure! |
Gramma | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 10:32 pm     1. Would you have wanted to get on a plane yesterday if it wasn't a dire emergency? With the nation on high security alert? 2. According to the Roddy interview posted about today (see outside the house area for article), the jury is to be sequestered for the last 2 weeks. I'd understand either one of those reasons for why there was no one there to greet. Sad though. As shaken as he was, he sure could have used hus sister's arms to fall into. |
Nmbeach | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 10:35 pm     I read in an interview with Roddy that he said he had to come back to LA next week to be sequestered until the end of the show. That is probably why they didn't have anybody there for Marcellas. He will probably just stay in LA, since there is only 12 days left. |
Curlyq | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 10:37 pm     Wait, I thought there were people to meet them last year after the live votes. Wasn't Krista voted out live? I remember Bunky crying so hard when he voted her out that I thought for a minute he was going to throw up on live TV. She was met by her brother and wasn't Mike also there with flowers for her? I thought Hardy's grandmother made the trip as well. Monica was the one who had no loved ones there because of the 9/11 attacks. It's just that last year there was no chance for a veto so they only had to fly in the loved ones of the 2 evictees. |
Bohica | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 10:45 pm     Maybe his family was there tonight but they preferred to meet with him privately and declined to reunite with him on camera. Marcellas signed up for the publicity of BB3. His family did not. ..or maybe they were there but they fainted when Marcellas foolishly refused to use the GPOV to save himself! LOL |
Sanfranjoshfan | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 10:52 pm     http://www.kweer.com/bb3julie/ Okay - I just posted a quicktime movie of Julie smacking Marcellas upside his stoopid head. Get it while you can....it will NOT be there for long, I swear! Anybody that gets it is welcome to do whatever you want with it, share it, post it,whatever....actually if someone wanted to host it on the web, that would be cool because my bandwidth gets eaten up way too quickly when I post links to large files here and then leave them for more than a day or so. So consider this a warning....it won't be there for long! Btw, it's about a 300kb file and you must have QuickTinme installed to view it. Enjoy!  |
Max | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 11:05 pm     That's Funny! Thanks! |
Sportsmom1714 | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 11:11 pm     Is it possible the family members weren't there because of the luxury challenge? I thought I just read where Amy got to talk to her mom. |
Richardfan | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 11:46 pm     Clio nailed it... The logistics of getting four (A/M/D/L) members of their families to LA is not feasible. Only one would get to greet the evictee and the other three would have to go home (probably with an attitude like, "the next time I get that call, I ain't going"). The families of the HGs still have to live their lives and go to their jobs. So the C in CBS does not stand for cheap (in this instance), they need to KNOW who is gone BEFORE they can present a family member or a friend to the evicted HG. |
Duhhart | Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 11:50 pm     For BB1 they would bring the families of the noms.. At times there were more than two on the block. |
Mrdisguise | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 05:30 am     on BB1 and BB2, family members of the nominated houseguests were in the audience (bb1) or waiting in a room (BB2). Don't you remember- Nicole's husband was sitting in a room with Hardy's family? he looked pissed. Nicole was not evicted that night. |
Crazydog | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 06:53 am     I am with Curly and Mrdisguise, I distinctly remember Hardy's grandmother meeting him, and I am positive that eviction was live. I recall everyone wondering if that "girlfriend" that he kept disparaging would be there. I also remember Krista being met by Mike and her brother. I do remember the "waiting room" and how I thought Nicole's husband looked like a complete jacka$$. |
Peachie | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 07:23 am     There were people there for everyone last year except for Monica and that was because of the 911 thing. Kristas brother was there. When Will was up but didnt go Shannon and Ian was there. Greg was there for Bunky when it was live and I forget who was there for Hardy (grandma I think)but as I said there were people there for everyone except Monica. I watched religiously last year so this is how I know these things. LOL On the vote when Monica and Krista was up, Monicas sister was there and Kristas brother. ;o) |
Justin42 | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 01:21 pm     I'm sure CBS could've afforded it if they wanted to-- especially as the families would be flying on Sept. 11, which you could get very cheap. I wonder if they didn't want to ask anyone to fly to LA on that day? As much as I grew to dislike Marcellas, I was kinda sad for him to not have anyone there waiting for him, especially after having the questionably roughest last 30 minutes of any houseguest in BB history... |
Moedog | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 02:14 pm     HILARIOUS! He had it comin'... Sanfranjoshfan Thursday, September 12, 2002 - 10:52 pm http://www.kweer.com/bb3julie/ THANK YOU, Sanfranjoshfan!!! |
Surini | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 03:03 pm     Fanny, I noticed how Julie was towards Marcel too and just rewatched the tape and at the end she said to him "Congratulations, you really did a good job Marcellas, you should be proud of yourself." Without rewatching every tape, I think he was the only evicted HG she has said something like that to. |
Minnietlm63 | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 05:14 pm     Well he did have his Boo (gnome) with him |
Seamonkey | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 06:08 pm     Amy's parents were not there either and she was the one everyone thought was leaving. I don't think they brought any of the four families out because with GPOV any of them could have been out. |
Ozarktracy | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 09:15 pm     What cracked me up the most was that Marcellas was so comfortable in front of the cameras that he just up and walked away from Julie before they broke for a commercial and he even walked in the camera's light, throwing shadows on Julie!! ROFL! He was probably sick and tired of the cameras, too, but it was just too funny to me to see him up and walk away from her!!! I think all of the others waited politely and sat next to her, looking around for family members, any possible audience members, the media, etc. Maybe he went to go phone home and cry, who knows, but it was just funny to see him not play by their rules for one minute and sit next to Julie until they released him. He was up and out of there, LOL! |
Earthmother | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 11:35 pm     He was probably in a hurry to call Dr. Phil for an intervention...lol |
