There’s A Line In The Sand!! BIG BROTHER Season Finale!! Plus BEAUTY & THE GEEK!! Tuesday Reality Roundup!!
SPOILER ALERT !!
I am – Hercules!!
Summer doesn’t end for a few more days, but there is a post-summer sadness that grips me I watch now the last hour of the last episode of Showtime Too’s “Big Brother After Dark.” I know the broadcast show continues to be a huge key-demo hit for CBS, but I wonder how many voyeurs have been watching all 21 weekly hours of the live cable show?
It’s down to whiny-ass Daniele Donato and her aging metalhead pop, Dick. On Tuesday night we’ll see one get $500,000 and the other will get $50,000. I don’t see angry atheist Dick getting the Jameka/Amber Christian vote, but I’m pretty sure he’ll get the big money anyway.
The “Big Brother” finales are always great, as ALL the contestants are always confronted with their controversial and exceedingly well-documented bad behavior. And how will the sequestered cast react to the fact that ousted Eric has secretly been taking CBS-sanctioned orders from viewers?
I’m curious about the deal Eric has with the show. Till now, he only got paid for every five tasks completed. But his final task (his viewer-mandated final vote for either Dick or Daniele) does not bring him to a multiple of five. Has he a special new incentive to vote?
I’m more curious about what we won’t learn. Once Daniele has her money, will she ever speak to her father again? Will she drop her longtime real-life boyfriend in favor of handsome former bedmate Nick?
As “Big Brother” ends another reality fave, The CW’s “Beauty and The Geek,” returns.
The “big twist” this season is that producers have thrown one male model and one girl without breast implants into the mix.
Discover what the rest of the contestants look like here.
"Beauty and the Geek": 8 p.m. Tuesday. The CW.
"Big Brother": 9 p.m. Tuesday. CBS.

Daniele stands no chance! In life or on the show!
-
go dick
-
Must remember to cancel RealPlayer tomorrow
-
but you know, win or lose, he's the number-one draft pick for ALL-STARS II
-
When will people learn??
-
It's a lock, baby
-
I'd do her.
Also, Daniele is despised. Even the Christians may swing to E.D. -
At least dick has said he'd share the money by helping danielle with her school, and his son with his school whereas danielle would fucking keep it all to herself. Its so fucking obvious she would rarely ever talk to him again if she wins the money.
-
that stupid that they're going to throw 500,000 grand at a 20 year old and expect her to use it wisely. Dick may have made some miserable mistakes in his past but I see him being way more responsible with the money than her.
-
They only hinted at the real reason for their relationship problem. Danielle borrowed money from Dick at some point, and when he insisted on her paying it back, she didn't like the way he insisted, so stopped talking to him. If there's more to it than that, I'd like to know because it seems pretty shallow to me. Almost as bad as Jessica hating Carol because Carol owed her $5 in college and never paid it back. I give it to Dick for strategy. He played with more balls than anyone ever tried, even the evil doctor wouldn't go as far as Dick in pissing people off and burning every bridge behind him and still making it to the end.
-
I love that they did this. I've never subscribed to the realplayer feeds (because I hate realplayer and all it represents) but when I heard it was going to be on sho2 I added it to my satalite package. My wife and I watch it in the background as we do computer stuff. What I didn't like were the constant commercials showing last season's people doing outrageous and often sexual things, promising that everything would be uncut and raw, and then to see the same old bullshit censorship constantly. Showtime should continue this next season, but should pressure BB to cut the censoring bullshit.
-
I cannot wait to see the looks on the faces of those smug assholes in the jury house when Zach walks his horsefaced ass in and tells them that the Donatos whipped him like a narc at a biker rally. I hope Dustin drops his purse.Evil Dick FTW! God Bless You, God!
-
It sucks, it just plain sucks!!!
This broad is so annoying that I have completely forgotten how annoying she is, I wouldn't even touch her with a 10 foot pole, I'd want to punch her in her teeth everytime I see her. -
I meant to say shes so annoying that I have completely forgotten how hot she is
-
is spelled with an O. Damnit I'm an idiot
-
Like others have mentioned, I can't wait to see Shrek lumber into the jury house tonight and Dustin loudly exclaim "NOOOOOOOOOOO!" Waaaaamber will cry enough tears to flood all of southern California.
And the magic ping-pong ball goes to...Evil Dick! Praise Jesus and hallelujah!!!
-
Here's hoping they bring that back for BB9, although my sleeping habits will be shot to hell if next year is as good as this season was.
-
I loved them both, but hope Daniele wins cause overall she was a better player. And hotter. And Dick was too much of a dick sometimes... And It is B.S. that Eric STILL has to do America's Player thing. I mean they won't even let him pick the winner?
I have no idea why you all think Dick is going to win... If he gets any votes it will be probably only the 1 if America tells Eric to vote for him. Its a lock Daniele will win. A LOCK.
But either way I don't care, them 2 (along with Eric and Jess) were the ones i Routed for... so whoever wins of those 2 I will be totally happy about lol. -
I never seen OZ, so seeing the first few eps are on HBO on Demand I decided to start watching that instead of watching Sundays show, which I knew was going to be sort of the look back thing...
But I do have it on DVR. Is it worth watching? I watched the first few minutes and did see that they also show what happened after Shrek's eviction... Dick and Daniele in the house, etc.. So that would be something I would like to see. I don't want to see a damn recap though. I hate when shows do that, unless its 100% new stuff they didn't previously show, which I don't think this was... I think it was the stuff they already showed just now in clips as a best of, am I right. Should I watch Sundays ep before tonights? -
Sunday's show was worth watching, but mostly only if you're a fan of the Donatos. The whole ep came off pretty much like the ending of an episode of Scooby-Doo, actually. 'Remember when this happened?' 'Oh yeah, that was great!' That kind of thing.If you're a fan of either Dick or Daniele, it's well worth watching. Best recrap show I've ever seen, and believe me, I've seen a lot.
-
It was a complete waste of time. First of all, this was the most careful group of people ever put in the house. In previous seasons, people didn't change clothes by putting clothes on over other clothes all the time. Second, I don't think they should have been told they were going to be on Showtime or when. It really broke up the "reality" of the show for them to always know "Oh, it's time for us to be on Showtime." They seemed extra cautious with their behavior when they knew the Showtime feeds were on. Third, like someone else already mentioned, all those commercials promising to show you "what we can't show you on network television" were just ludicrous. I never saw anything on the Showtime feeds, other than language, that couldn't have been on CBS. Maybe a compilation of the wildest stuff in the last 24 hours? Maybe not have the After Dark show on every damn day? I dunno. Maybe they should just recruit some of the nudity-friendly kids from Real World next year.
-
It was nice for the first 20 minutes every so often... but other then that? If there was nothing at all to watch and I happened to be home by midnight on a Friday I would put it on for a bit... but maybe saw it 3 times, and the longest for 40 minutes.
The worse was the when there were the 4 left... I'm watching it for a few minutes... AND IT JUST KEPT SWITCHING BETWEEN DANIELE AND JAMIKA STARING INTO SPACE! Daniele in the kitchen, Jamika in the pool...
It was too much of nothing. 3 hours was WAAAAAAAAAAAY too long. Should be an hour or two, and not of whats going on that second, but what happened throughout the day, and just the stuff they can only show on showtime...
The guy hit it right on the head, when I saw Jessica putting on a shirt to change into another shirt... I was like wah?!!?! -
My theory is Dick gave her money for a boob job so she could get the Hooters gig, but she never paid him back.
Eric, I guess, could turn down another $10,000 (or whatever) if he decdided to vote against the viewer's wishes. -
They seem normal size to me... like on the smallish normal size even.
-
21 yr olds. And a bunch of followers and not leaders. Evil has ruined Big Brother forever w/ his tactics.
-
Imagine what he'll be like with $250,000 in his pocket (after taxes) and no cameras following him around.
-
I understand what you're saying, Herc, but Eric doesn't have a choice in who he votes for. The rules state that Eric has to vote the way we tell him to or he doesn't get the money (any of it). That is his incentive. There were optional tasks (giving that stuffed dog to Jessica, etc.), but voting was not an optional task. It's that simple, so CBS won't even give him the option to vote on his own.
-
Yes sometimes he went too far so that even myself as a huge fan of his was like "oh jeez just knock it off" but overall thats who he was... and he was one of the best reasons to watch! His tactics are no better or worse then anyone elses on any reality show...
-
Dick is the most awesome person in this house, ever. Yep, maybe even trumping Will and Boogie. E.D. 4 THA WIN!!!!!!!!
-
I hate the people who post on that fucking site-- bunch of bitter, catty, ugly fat women and the gay men that love them. All that feminist bluster, but it's painfully obvious they're pathologically terrified of any man with a testerosterone level north of Zac Effron. It's so bad, they moderate the site to within an inch of its life so no one can get in a dissenting opinion. Anyway, the hilarious and relatively harmless Evel Dick has replaced the even more innocuous Mike Boogie as their go-to reality TV B.B. alpha male on which to project all their fear and hatred of men. Christ, the dude talks some good trash and has a temper; He's not the fucking Night Stalker. The anti-Dick posts over there are hysterically overwrought. Hey, fat asses, you know, if a metalhead clown on TV upsets your fragile constitution that deeply, you can always, you know, change the channel.
-
When Julie would ask for Eric's vote, it never seemed like he had a choice.
-
He's America's Player until the show is over. If they do another All Stars, he definitely needs to be on the show so we can actually see his strategy. Dick is going to win the money tonight, no question. The Showtime thing was cool for the first few weeks, but I think I'd watch maybe 45 minutes of each episode and fast forward through any and all Amber, Dustin, and Danielle/Nick bits. God, I hated Amber. I actually wanted her to win the money in hopes that she'd OD...
-
It was like a fishtank with dialogue.
-
Showtime Too wasn't constantly cutting away from the feeds the way RealNetworks did.
-
Not a big fan of the Donatos, but they totally deserve the win here. The problem this year was not their behavior--every season needs a good villian, and Evel Dick certainly filled that role (and then some). The problem was that there was no one to root for. While the Donatos outplayed everyone, that's not saying much. No one seemed to have much of a strategy, no one seemed to have any previous knowledge of the game, no one seemed to give things much thought other than thinking that they deserved to win because they were a "good person". Eric, the weasel, seemed like the only who might have given the Donatos a challenge, but he was handcuffed by the America's Player fiasco. Dick and Dani will win by default. If there were one other decent player in the house, they'd get smoked because they failed to play the social aspect of the game, and made the jury hate them. Dr. Will or Season 3's Danielle would have had them for breakfast.
Enough with the twists already CBS, they've always failed miserably. Go back to having a bunch of strangers in the house. Make them work for things like food and luxuries. Give them tasks to complete. No more gimmicks, and no more anorexic whiners! -
Good post and I agree with you on Eric. If he didn't have the idiot brigade (General Public) spinning his game then he would have been crowned winner tonight.
-
The way the mustard incident and the "mystery votes" bred paranoia was fucking great!
-
because she's HOT AS HELL! But I agree, Dick is going to take it.
-
By the time the last episodes decided to focus on him, I was REALLY hoping he'd take Dick off his high horse. With these two in the final two, it doesn't even matter which one wins. And Sunday's episode was a waste of time, but I HAVE enjoyed the season.
-
I have two problems with the way they executed the America's Player twist. For one thing they didn't have very interesting tasks, it would have been nice to have him do some truly insane things, but instead we watched him give a stuffed animal away and imitate Dick. Yawn. My other problem is with America. At first it was cool because we always made Eric look bad ... but then we started to give him easy tasks. We had him kiss Jessica, yet he had already done that (and wanted to do that). It would have been MUCH more interesting to see him plant one on Dick (who was one of the choices). America, you suck!
-
This season has easily been the best since Dr. Will worked his magic way back in Season 2. In fact, I think Season 8 might rank a tiny bit higher, being that the Power of Veto didn't exist back then, resulting in less power struggles. Then again, Will did have it a bit harder, convincing people to not vote him out without having the Veto to fall back on if he had too...
-
Oh, and YouIgnorantGeeks, if all you have to jerk off to after Mommy and Daddy go to bed is Showtime, it's time to move out.
-
They need to stop bringing in Model, wannabe actor types and go back to bringing in reg folk w/ different age groups. And make them work for their food, etc. The reason why this year sucked was none of them would stick up to Evil. Think about it: Dani did't leave her room until Loverboy got kicked out.
-
"Your speech was kind of crappy." Incredibly clear that the only thing that brought these two closer is the prospect of 500 000 dollars.
-
What must you think of American Idol and the overseas Big Brothers?
-
It's dick.
-
I've been a long time BB viewer and IMHO your assessment is spot on.Well said, indeed.
-
Even if he GIVES her the money as a testament of his (sadly fucked-up) love, he will--for the rest of his natural life--keep on TELLING HER OVER AND OVER "Look what I did for you!!! Why don't you love me!? Why don't you respect me!!? I took you to the end of BIG BROTHER 8 and I gave you the money! I'm your father! Respect me!" The really sad part is that we (the viewers) will never get to see their relationship crash and burn because no one really follows up on what happens to these poor reality t.v. idiots. Daniele should move as far away from that fucked-up geezer as possible!
-
One thing that made the American Big Brother better than other shows of its kind is that despite what the viewers wanted, the player most adept at "the game" could win based only on what happened in the house. The outside vote (e.g. "America's Vote") thwarted game play that would have advanced a player in any other season, while advancing others who would have been toast in past seasons.AP essentially changed the game from Big Brother to Puppet Master.
-
I'm glad Dick won. He was my favorite. I'm a little pissed off at Beauty though. They came here to Columbus, OH but failed to show, yet one person they claim is from here showed it as if she tried out in L.A. The guy from here sent in a tape. I feel so used by the CW for trying out saying I was good enough, and to wait to be called back only to be fucked over. Thanks CW.
-
It looks like he didn't show for the finale; I guess the bedtime make-out sessions didn't sit so well. Let the barely defered Nick-Daniele boinking commence!
-
Great final 2 you dueschebags at CBS!!! Neither one deserved to win.He's a piece of shit that should get a serious beatdown and she's a smug cheating whiny bitch. You know her and the pretty boy went and screwed as soon as they could. And why the hell was everyone so afraid of that flabby smoking geezer? He's a big pussy thinking he's a tough guy with the tats and the picking on women. And in no universe is Dickelle hotter then Jen!!! Give me the beautiful Jen and her body over the skeleton skank blonde.
-
If only the producers weren't so intent on giving everybody a happy ending. You didn't need a crystal ball to predict Dick was going to win, and I'm not sure the conversations with the castmates were all that interesting. Carol looked really excited to be there tonight. Didn't give a shit about Nick and Danielle's reunion. Could've done without the interview with D&D's mom/grandmother and son/brother. You know, this should really could've been the greatest finale ever had the producers ambushed Amber by pointing out how hated she was...
-
have been rewarded, I'm sure he'll spread the wealth to his mother, son and maybe even Danielle. Dani though would have most likely taken the money and ran from her family, as she has a history of cutting ALL of them out of her life.
-
Ka Dargo what exactly is it you are smoking?!?!?! If you want to argue Jess and Daniele thats one thing, but Jen isn't even in their leagues. Plus say what you will about Daniele, but Jen was a conceited bitch. And body wise? Again both Jess and Daniele have better bodies. Jen is hot and has a kickass body too, don't get me wrong... but again not even comparable to the other two in that regard.
And can someone please explain to me how Amber became so delusional??!!?? Part of it is Jamika's fault, and I think even Jamika thought Amber took the modeling thing too far... Jamika kept saying magazines.. meaning YOUR FACE which isn't even that pretty but probably when posed a certain way... But Amber started thinking her hair is great, her face is great.. her BODY!?!?!? is great.. it was nuts. -
The vote thing. I mean besides the idiotic tasks.... the IDEA itself was good if you gave him good tasks... but they should have let him vote what he wanted push for who he wanted. Because honestly this was my first season watch BB, and I loved it... but basically thought that America ran the whole game, not the people in the house. You may say its only one vote.. but its not, because he DEFINITELY convinced people to change votes based on who America told him to get out of house, get nominate, etc. So that aspect really sucked, and if I was Eric I would be pissed. I would be like "ya know what... no, I signed on for Big Brother and I want to win the half a mil... so take this 10grand every 5 things and shove it up your ass". I mean you can say CBS basically took half a mil from him without even giving him a choice...
And also a few people said you can't complain about America's vote because shows like Idol and Europe big brother do that... Yea uhhuh but there SUPPOSED to do that. Its SUPPOSED to be based on America's votes... BB supposed to be just about the housemates, and this time it wasn't. But then again, I guess that is really true big brother... only instead of the government it was America telling people what to do.
So next season I say bring back America's Player as far as tasks are concerned... but NOT in regards to how he/she votes... who he/she campaigns for.. etc.
Though I am glad about the Dustin thing lol, I wanted his pompous ass out. -
Evil Dicks and "Skelewhores" - 2
"Good People With Morals" and God - 0
-
wtf?
-
....wheres the love for The Biggest Loser? Its a Tuesday night reality show, and since its just a lot of people losing weight, its actually worthy of its existence. Big Brother and Beauty and the Geek are scripted turds.
-
With cosmetics on they both looked pretty good. Without them was where Jen made Danielle look horrible. They both had shitty personalities and I couldn't imagine anybody with any dignity staying with either of these dunces for very long. But when it comes down to brass tacks - Jen would be the much better lay and I even prefer blondes. Let me explain something to all of you sad pathetic dorks that come on here and bitch about how terrible this show or that movie is - bone skinny girls are nasty in the sack. Who the hell wants to rub a girl and feel bone? Coming into the show Jen had a pretty damn smokin' bod which may have grew a bit over the weeks for lack of anything much to do. But slapping that ass while putting it to her would be so much better than feeling Danielle's pelvis pounding into the top of your thighs went your tappng that.
-
No discusssion. It just is. Search your feelings. You know this is true.

I couldn't help but keep comparing this season to the All-Stars season previously. Specifically, Chill Town. Dr Will and (to a lesser extent) Mike Boogie completely and utterly ran that household. There's several levels of game players. A 0-level player will have no strategy at all; he'll just do whatever he feels like doing on a moment to moment basis. A 1-level player will work toward the next immediate goal. A 2-level player is, quite uniquely, able to sacrifice temporary gains in return for long-term advantages. A good example of this is Will's disdain for getting HoH; he knew that it was poison in the long run despite the temporary power it would give him. There was no one in this household on level two; a few one level one; and way too many on level zero. Instead of keeping the ultimate objective in mind -- a whole heaping wad of cash! -- they played stupidly. They actually took the game *personally*. They got genuinely insulted when people lied to them. But BB is a liars' game! Duh! It's good game to *pretend* to act offended when another houseguest lies to you, but to actually shape your strategy around emotional retribution is just silly. Dr Will, again, in Season 7 tested other players to see if they were reliable. Not honest, but reliable: whether they would do his bidding. If they failed this test, he calmly took it into account. He didn't change his gameplay in order to punish the person. For criminy's sake. Dick is the exception to the emotionalism-equals-death rule; he clearly got into very sincere indignation when people lied to him, but he managed to intimidate people into submission. Amber -- who is a very, very, very ugly crier, by the way -- had the exact same self-righteous attitude, but was unable to intimidate anyone. Zero level players are like that. ***************** Rambling point: Chill Town and the Donatos proved just how powerful a duo team can be. This kind of team is brittle -- all it takes is one loss and the team is destroyed, obviously -- but an absolutely unshakeable alliance is a powerful asset. There wasn't any real chance of a member of either duo betraying their partner, and that edge helped them a long way. This kind of alliance is a cheat, in a way, since all four people knew each other from before the game.
-
Jen looked hot even without makeup...horseface Dickelle is not even close to Jen. What are YOU smokin ignorantgeeks????? No way is Jess even close with her ugly blonde hair and that oh so annoying voice!!! Only thing Jess has are the tits and Jen's are still better. They're all annoying but gimmie Jen's face and body and hair.
