I can't believe the velocity with which I am back into the clutches of "Big Brother". Last night's live eviction was a crusher - and the ChenBot intrigued me with her show close directing me (she was talking right to me, see) to Showtime Too for "Big Brother After Dark" every night from midnight to 3 AM.
Here's a phrase you don't hear every day: I sat RIVETED to Showtime Too last night for hours! Showtime Too is my new obsession. They just run unedited conversations from various parts of the Big Brother 8 house. You feel like every whispered conversation is of urgent importance. Or at least I did last night.
I need to get a life.
Or at least I need to figure out a way to learn something from "Big Brother". This seems relatively impossible. As soon as I start making judgments about poor set-design, I remember that it's actually genius that the producers have sprayed the entire set with cams and mics, so I can't make a horrible judgement.

I was actually happy to see Joe go. He was evil.
Also, the house is horrid-looking this year.
What's up with the Alice In Wonderland motif?
What about 'Hillbilly' instead of 'white trash'? Still bad?

Veracity=truthfulness or actuality. Velocity=speed.
Love the blog, but seriously--Have someone proofread it.

If it's a good movie there's no shame in seeing it again within a week. I'm looking forward to watching "Hairspray" soon.

I didn't see your original post with the "offensive langueage," but saying 'white trash' is not offensive and whoever emailed you should lighten up. Saying that, I can only hope you were talking about Amber!

"Veracity" means truth. You've used the word wrong. Perhaps you mean velocity. That's slightly awkward, but makes better sense given the sentence.

Showtime TOO's addition of BBAfter Dark has made this season a LOT funner. Instead of hoping for good editing you can now see the madness as to why and why not feature certain things. Plus the live feeds have an unedited raw feel to them...especially raw when we got a full frontal flash from Amber last night...she does shave too by the way, so she does not get the hillbilly moniker. BB8 ROCKS! I too need a life.

oh A,
I'm so with you on the "Hairspray"! I do so think it's rather strange when people clap in a movie theater where the people they are clapping for can't hear it. But they did when I went. I missed a few lines trying to hear them over the laughter from the first. I'm going to try for a time when I have most of the theater to myself.
Enjoy!

"veracity" means "truthfulness." Odd choice of word.

Andy... I can hardly wait until "Welcome to the Parker" airs! My partner and I go there regularly and John the concierge always greets us by name. The hotel is one of the very best in the desert and to run such a beautiful place must be a real challenge. Thanks for Bravo for making one of our favorite places a venue for a show. You guys are brilliant! It will be sure to be a winner!
The chefs on Top Chef are really likable and talented this season. All of them are first rate. There is still drama, but the high school mentality seems to be lacking. Thank goodness!
I hope you guys are planning something for Tim Gunns birthday on July 26th!! C'mon, you better!!
Big hugs from Palm Springs!
