Big Brother 8 (2008) Chat

So, we are just a short time away from THAT time of year again.
(Can anyone actually confirm the start date? I've heard 28 April.)

What do you think of the new hosts Kyle and Jackie O?
I was interested to read that co-hosting this year are Tony Squires and Rebecca Wilson.
Bree and Fitzy are returning, along with Mike Goldman (best host IMHO), and also ex-HMs Paul (BB4) and Tim (BB5).

And the first housemate for this year has been revealed as 53-year-old grandmother Terri...

Kyle, umm why not if it means we get some nice vids of Jackie each week!!!
But Squires and Wilson??? What's that about, are they going to call the Friday Night Games like a Sports Report????

They tried this in the UK and she was one of the 1st to go.

Let's see.

lol you called it bro. Gone on the first day ^_^

i have a feeling that she'll be back later though

Ahh, Aussies Exposed is the best place to be this time of the year, can't wait for all the goodies.

aslong as that young blonde gets her kit off. BB might be worth watching. Altho looks like we're in for another lame year

Patience ikar10. Others have started off slowly before heating up in the second week

BB will only be a success if they reinvent uncut. People are not interested in social experiments - just fun bags and camel toes.... even the girlies deserve a bit of
Jamie from a few years ago (tho my gf never looked at me the same again). Lots of really good fodder for aussies exposed - lets see the exposition.

thank * they got a kinda new version of uncut now..

Hope fully Rebecca Wilson might wear some nice tops and show PLENTY of cleavage like she used to on "The Fat." Let's hope that happens.

Shouldn't there be something in here by now? A video of the showers or something? It jsut seems odd that there is practically nothing.

everyone heard about the midget's nude pics by now? call me a freak but i'm interested to see them, just to satisfy my curiosity

Well I've no idea how to get the video .. but Bridgitte has apparently already suffered a 'costume mishap' while getting in/out of the spa.. she was taking her jacket off and I believe the mic got called and pulled her bikini top aside.

i saw on the regular show a few days back they were fuzzing out a part of her low cut top so that could have been a nipple slip :/

They didn't even show it on the show.

So they can show dicks but not tits. Interesting.

was the big mouth show on monday any good? i missed it

Nah, from what I saw of it the show was mostly a panel with ex-housemates ..and a lot of talk about current ones, and reactions the show is getting.

Most video seemed to be focusing on that Corey idiot.

Saw that Phantom.

I'm jsut saying that it seems a bit hypocritical that they can show dicks but not tits.

They can show tits. They just didn't this episode. They may have decided to only show obviously intentional nudity (such as Nobbi's), they may have had no footage of tits at the time, or they may be holding off female nudity to suit their new attempt for a broader demographic for this new format.

Time will tell.

Big mouth was a waste of time last night saw more dick nothing good though

I know most of you may disagree with me but I feel sorry for Nobbi.

Firstly he is left in the Kombi... which would really piss anyone off from the beginning.
Then he is misled that he'll get $20,000 for winning FNL.
Then the horrible noises in the Kombi when he is sleeping, as part of "Ignore the Obvious" task.
Then now the holiday in a freakin dump.

Don't care what anyone else says but thats just.... thats f**ked up shit!!

Someone needs to find the guy who comes up with this shit and beat the crap out of him... sorry but I am really pissed off.

Well, it was a housemate who put him in the Kombi, not BB so you can't really blame him for that.

I don't feel sorry for Knobhead at all. In fact, I'm quite enjoying it. They did psychological profiles on all of them before they went in so already knew what sort of people they were & how they'd most likely behave.

I don't feel sorry for Travo either. He needs to stick up for himself & not care if people don't like him & quit worrying about it & his greetings card philosophy little world. He needs a wake up call, but so does Knobhead. In that case of the latter it's called "what goes around comes around".

The spa incident was a classic example. Earlier he told Travo that Alice HATED him which is a very strong word - particularly when it was a word that was never even used. It was a set up. He then asked Travo which housemate he likes the least & even very quickly added "Think of a conversation we had earlier" & he could not help but show the excitement & delight on his face in the knowledge of what was about to happen. In other words, he manipulated Travo to get at Alice with a lie. That's just being a coward. I've also noticed a few times when he confronts people he lies about what he said earlier. Mate, I don't care what anyone says, if you can't stand by what you said & have to lie then you're just spineless. He shows no remorse for his actions & can't admit when he's wrong.

There's also a few other points to consider. They massacred Travo's hair, played tricks & jokes which eventually lead to a need of medical treatment & seemed to take it all on the chin. Whereas, soon as Knobhead gets just one bad turn (eg: clean the windows) he throws a complete & instant tantrum like a squawking little girl.

However, I wouldn't be sorry to see Travo go but I'd like to see Knobhead stay to the end - in the kombi. Just the idea of him making it right to the end of the series, not winning & not actually ever actually going into the Big Brother house. Yeah, that sucks but who cares? It's fun to watch. He signed up for a Big Brother experience & now he's getting one.

news is there will be no more aussie Big Brother from now on...

yea i heard... probably not so annoyed about it, seeing as we didnt get to see anything this year anyway - and i can't see it getting any better
