Cliotheleo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 07:59 pm     Ok, one of my favorite things to do is watch my BB episode tapes after the season has progressed to see what interesting/ironic things the HGs said or did in light of events that followed. I did this thread a month or so ago, but there is an over-all lack of irony in the house when compared to years past, so I thought things needed a bit longer to gell. NOW that we are close to the end, I'm giving it another shot. I'm half way in to episode one, here's what I've noticed ............. Jun tells us in the DR that she's going to win the game. Dave's initial reaction to Dana was that she was "hot." Dana was the first person to name the original alliance as "8 strong." When they were first getting to know one another on the couch, Scott was sitting on the floor, almost away from the rest of the group. Read into that what you will............. I'm sure I'll be back with more. |
Bastable | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 08:03 pm     Check out the first episode, and all the things the HGs have to say about themselves in their bio tapes! Anyone have that to transcribe? As I remember, they're pretty accurate as to what happens later! |
Cliotheleo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 08:05 pm     I mentioned this before but it was a good one........... when Dave found out in the first food comp. that there were no virgins in the house, he said "good, that means no one will be uptight about sex." Later, the HGs were discussing making fake alliances with their ex's, only to boot them later, Scott said, "we say that now, but we'll all be sucking face with them tomorrow." Dave said, "yeah, I'll suck face," Ali said "I won't!" Not clear if she meant with her ex, or in general. |
Marcie_B | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 08:11 pm     Please keep the info coming! Great topic and I'll be checking back for updates ASAP! Thanks! |
Cliotheleo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 08:11 pm     Now this doesn't have anything to do with my original idea of this thread, but I just noticed when they interviewed Erika for her "comparison" interview with Rob, she said, "I date, but I don't really have anyone I'd consider my boyfriend." What about everyone's favorite BB1 HG "JA"? Hmmmmm........... wonder why she said that? |
Beruthiel | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 08:23 pm     They're 'just good friends'?  |
Bastable | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 08:30 pm     Here are what the HGs from BB3 said at the start of their season--amazingly accurate!! (Courtesy of the DVD): Amy: I'm Amy, and if I p1ss you off, frankly I don't give a dammn. Lisa: No more bartending for me! I'll see you guys later! ... I'm Lisa, and I'm going to go through the men and I'm going to 86 those women. Roddy: I'm Roddy, and I'm going to play this game to a "tee." Josh: I'm Josh, and I'm the joker. [Then they show him smacking Merritt's butt.]] Eric: I'm Eric, and when the lights go down, I'm full of surprises.... If it helps me win the show, I will hook up with girls. [and then they show him packing socks... for those tough tingling toes] --The only HGs who say they are packing for three months are Amy and Danielle, who, unlike most players, indeed did stay in the game for almost the whole period. --Even as they entered the house for the first time, most of the major couples were intact: Lisa and Eric enter in the first group of four. Roddy and Chiara enter in the second group of four. Danielle and Jason enter together in the final group. --Jason was the last HG to enter the house. He turned out to be the last evicted. --During the first get-to-know-you the HGs had, Lisa sat next to Danielle and Danielle sat next to Jason. Lisa goes to the DR after and says "I do not see any strong competition, which makes me very happy." |
Jimmer | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 08:37 pm     That's a really great idea re-watching some older episodes. How many hours do you have taped? |
Cliotheleo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 08:58 pm     Ali to Nate, WAY back in week one ....... "I like Robert a H*ll of a lot better than I like Erika, I trust Robert more than I trust Erika." |
Cliotheleo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:01 pm     Jimmer, knock on wood, I have all the episodes on tape, same with last season ........... well, I've lost a tape somewhere, but I'm SUPPOSED to have all of season 3. Also, when Justin, Robert and Jee were first allying, Justin told them "if any of our exes get HOH, we're screwed." If I'm not mistaken, Ali, Erika or Jun were responsible for Justin and Jee's departure and I think it's a safe bet to say that they'll also be responsible for Robert's. Not much or a stretch, but still, he was right. |
Cliotheleo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:02 pm     Also, and I'm a bit hesitant to say this because I don't mean it as bashing, just a comment ......... Jun looks like a totally different person. |
Wendo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:04 pm     Clio, do you mean that Jun has put on weight? I think this has been very stressful for her. And, as she has said, she's a stress eater. You're not bashing either just commenting on how the game has taken a toll on her physically. |
R151996 | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:06 pm     I wouldn't call it bashing either. Remember the comparison clip on the TV show the third or fourth week. Actually I think Ali getting Jun into an exercise regimen helped get their alliance solidified. |
Cliotheleo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:11 pm     Erika: "God, thank you for putting David in this house because he's going to keep me laughing all summer!" Try three weeks Erika. Dave: "Me being silly and goofy is distracting that fact that I'm a threat to everyone else." No Dave, sadly it wasn't. |
Wendo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:18 pm     "No Dave, sadly it wasn't." No kidding. |
Sunshyne4u | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:28 pm     Big Brother Irony or Society's Irony?? There was a whole segment on the TV show about Jun's weight gain yet Erika became so skeletal that the other HGs were begging her to eat...NOT a MENTION on the tv show that I recall. I have often wondered why people like to see people starving on Survivor as well. Heidi last year went down as low as 85 lbs yet people online were calling her "hot!!". The scary thing for me was when I realized that I thought even the men looked better thin.....think of Sean Rictor's abs after a few weeks of starving!! As a society, we are really warped. |
Spunky | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:37 pm     You know there wasn't much to see on tv tonight and I rewinded up to the point when Jun wins HOH and see her in NY, etc. I like to fast forward to the critical dialogues and DR entries and also some of the funnies, like the imitation of evicted hgs. I must admit that if we only watch the show we wouldn't feel so outraged at these hamsters's nastiness. I think it's the Live Feeds that make us shake our heads and wonder why we keep watching and reading the sh.it that goes on in that house. The tv show is quite entertaning and the nastiness edited in a way to create more intrigue but does not anger the viewers, but when I read the Feeds I just can't stomach what I read. Ooops, I think I should post this on another thread Live Feeds vs Tv show... |
Cliotheleo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:42 pm     Remember Jack's FBI "make" on the other HGS? Well, this is why he isn't in the game any more....... "Jun would be what we call in the FBI a 'liability.' She's not tough enoug to stay in the house long unless we wanna eat real' well." "Alison is a daddy's girl. I don't think she's a strong player." |
Juiceman | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:46 pm     Its a weird social phenominon (and actualy a kind of sickness too) but the fatter America gets the more 'desirable' thinness gets. America as a country has possibly the most overwieght people in the world. Many tourists are stunned by the amount of really big heavy Americans are. Weirdly - as the average wieght grows ,, the average weight of TV celebrities goes down! Its even wierder when America actually tried to justify this by 'reversing' the sickness itself - take for example the constant 'fat jokes' about Jun. Sorry but Jun is NOT fat. not at all. She is probably far slimmer than the average woman. I was stunned at how many people thought Erika was 'so pretty' and yet she was at least 20 pounds under a healthy weight for her height. Good observation sunshyne. I agree totally |
Monalisahi | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:47 pm     Just a personal note on Jun's eating habits. I know she said she is a stress eater, but I haven't seen that to be the case at all. That girl eats all the time, and she sure doesn't seem stressed. I think it has more to do with the fact that she quit smoking 2 days before coming into the house. |
Spunky | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 09:57 pm     While rewatching I noticed how much they eat, it seems that they're constantly eating, I felt like I've been eating with them all summer long, I feel so bloated! I saw how Jun was nice and slim at the beginning of the show, especially her funny interview to get in the show, and then Ali as well, she had such a nice figure. I just saw them progressively increase in size...not funny. |
Sunshyne4u | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 10:01 pm     I never knew about the quitting smoking. Strange, would think she would talk about it more...hmmmmm juice.....went to Disneyland, Ca. Never seen so many obese kids in my LIFE!! I am Canadian. |
Wendo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 10:05 pm     Monalisahi, well, I would say being trapped in a house 24/7 for almost three months vieing for half a million dollars is pretty stressful actually. LOL! However, I do agree that she also quit smoking and this has probably contributed to her increased eating. Keeping the mouth occupied as they say, since she's not smoking. |
Monalisahi | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 10:45 pm     Sunshyne, she did talk about it.....how do you think I know about it...LOL. Wendo, I agree with you, it would be stressful.....that's why I wouldn't dare sign up for it. Seems that most of the time that Jun was under stress though, she went to bed. |
Wendo | Monday, September 15, 2003 - 10:47 pm     Mona, actually, today on the feeds, Jun said she was stress eating because of Robert, but she said at least it wasn't bad because she was eating fruit. So I do believe she stress eats, however, she seems to be aware of it. |
