Fans of Big Brother 13(BB13) were treated to a new twist this season, The show paired people up in duos, and brought some power couples from the past, back into the game. The returning favorites was Rachel and Brendon, or more commonly referred to as Brenchel, The American Sweethearts Jeff and Jordan, and of course the Donatos, Dick(Or Evel Dick, whichever you prefer) and Danielle.

However, fans of the series who might have turned into Big Brother After Dark on Showtime, or the Big Brother Live feeds might have noticed something was missing! The missing factor? Evel Dick!

Many sources began cranking out rumor after rumor. Some sources were saying he had became ill, others said someone in his family was injured, and still others stated that he had been arrested for some odd reason. Rumors literally were flying all over the web.

I decided to hold off on talking about Evel Dicks disappearing, until facts were actually known, because I don’t deal in rumors, and to be honest; Rumors don’t help anyone!

So, why did Dick disappear from the house? As of the time of this writing, nobody but CBS and Evel Dick really knows, so don’t go believing everything you read on the interwebs! There has however been some announcements, which might shed a little light on the situation however.

CBS issued a statement stating the following:

“Due to a personal matter, Big Brother houseguest Dick Donato had to leave the game unexpectedly on Thursday.  His departure will be addressed on the episode to be broadcast on Wednesday, July 13,”

Evel Dick also posted a statement on his twitter page;

I will be releasing a public video statement on @RTVZonein the next couple days concerning my departure from the Big Brother House, But to squash the rumors, I am not in jail, don’t have cancer, my mother son and girlfriend are not in the hospital & I was not kicked out. Don’t bother asking me questions, I won’t be answering… I will let you know when my public statement is posted on @RTVZone. Thanks for all the concern and well wishes.

So, there you have it! Nobody currently knows, and won’t know until either weds BB episode, or Dicks RTVZone announcement, whichever comes first.

His disappearance from the house is a shame though. While I am not a huge fan of his, I do know he and his assholery would totally have ruled the BB house. Without him, it looks like it is just going to be night after night of people playing that chanting game, “Big Booty!” and “Would you rather…?”

dancing-with-the-starsThis week I did something I have never done before, and most likely will never do again. It’s not anything exciting! I didn’t go shark jumping, bungee jumping or spelunking blindfolded. No! Nothing like that. Not even close! What I did do however is watch a reality show/contest thingie called “Dancing with the stars“. I am sure you have heard of it, as for some reason it’s a very popular series.

Now, maybe it’s just me, but I can’t get into this show. I honestly don’t see how it has lasted as many seasons as it has. I mean, why would you people watch this? Seriously? I mean, I hate watching people dance during plays, musicals or ice shows. Why the hell would it be any different if it’s celebs doing the dancing? Is there THAT many people out there who just can not get enough dancing? Seriously? There’s just not enough dancing in your life that you have this need to watch celebs foxtrot and salsa about for your entertainment?

I’m sorry, it was a snoozefest for me, although the salsa dances were kind of cool, but really that’s it. No enjoyment in the show for me.

Ok, if I am going to sit here and bash the show, and I knew before hand that I hate dancing, then WHY did I even bother watching it? Is that what you are asking yourself? Well, in case that is what you were asking yourself I will answer. The real reason I tuned into Dancing with the stars, is because, well quite honestly because one year someones false leg apparently fell off, or at least thats what I heard. So, clearly I wanted to see someone get embarassed. Mainly, I wanted to see if Kelly Osbourne would end up falling on her butt during a salsa dance. unfortunately she did NOT fall down, therefor i was robbed of my amusement for the evening.

Not only did she NOT fall down, she actually did pretty well too, although to be honest, I think the judges and her parents were exagerating how well she did to be honest. She was alright. Nothing more, certainly nothing to rave about like the judges were doing, and DEFINIATELY not a performance that would warrant the reaction her parents were giving her. I mean, come on! Mya was a thousand times better than kelly, and you sure as hell didn’t see the camera panning on any of her family crying and sobbing as she ran to her parents to hug them…I swear, Kelly seems like such a drama queen to me.

Anyway, show sucked and I wont watch it anymore.

Ok, so I’ve been watching this season of “The Mole“. It’s become somewhat of an addiction for me saddly, but it IS a great show! Too good for it’s own good as a matter of fact!

From the very first episode this season I had three main choices on who “The Mole” was. Those suspects were Nichole, Mark and Craig. Now, the series is nearly finished…it’s down to the final three players…and those players are? Nichole, Mark and Craig…DOH!

Ok, so obviously one of my choices were right…But which one? My guess is Nichole. Craig is a very close second…I however don’t believe too much that Mark is The Mole…and if he is? Well, he’s gotta be the worst friggen Mole in Mole history, because he’s pretty much single handedly been winning the game for everyone…

Nichole just seems like shes covering things up.

As for Craig? The only reason I choose him to begin with, is because he LOOKS like a mole…Doesn’t he? like one of them ground burrowing moles…..

Some of you may have watched this show called Moment of Truth last season when it first aired. Well, this week season 2 is back with a vengeance! If you haven’t heard of this TV series, let alone watched it..Allow me to give you a basic rundown!

Contestants are hooked up to a lie detector, and then asked questions. Some embarrassing. Some are just outright wrong. As the contestant answers questions he or she gains more money. They can quit at anytime(as long as a question hasn’t been asked) and take home their winnings. As long as they keep answering truthfully they rake in the cash(up to half a million smackaroo’s which I might add nobody has claimed that much yet here) If they lie and get a question false? They loose all that they have won.

A lot has been lost due to season 1. Friendships destroyed, relationships trashed, families ripped apart. All that kind of good stuff! Yea, I know. It’s horrible. But it’s my guilty pleasure. The way I see it, these people KNOW whats going to happen. They choose to subject themselves to this line of questioning, Granted it’s not fair on their family…..Yet, this surprisingly simple concept does make for good TV!

Anyway, Season 2 started and the first episode of the season was GREAT! They had some tough questions flying and everything. The guy seemed to be a bit of a sleaze, and didn’t really seem to care if his statements hurt people. In fact on occasion I would say he exclaimed his answers proudly.

One nifty little change they did with this season was increase the volume recording depth of the friends/family box. Last season you really couldn’t hear the little whispers and mumbles, now apparently…it’s loud and clear..maybe even louder than the host and contestant…Anyway! It’s my guilty pleasure…so, you should check it out too!
