Gretchen and CBS2 Interviews!
They have turned off the embedding on Gretchen’s CBS interviews, so I’ll have to simply link them here for you. So, here we go, I’ll link them as they become available!

And, here are the CBS2 Interviews as well! (someone will get these on youtube, and I’ll put them up as soon as it happens. For now - linkage!)
(Also - the interviewer has FINALLY learned how to handle the microphone! HURRAY! past couple seasons sucked with him. At least we can hear it all now. Thank goodness. Well done, CBS2!)

—- Alrighty - we’re still missing three of the CBS2 links, but it’s 3am here, and I get to get up in just 3 hours! So! Hah. Time for tired Lessa’s to sleep. Enjoy all the interviews! I’ll add the links when I get them!

Good morning, Lessa. Thanks for posting all the links to the different interviews. I’m loving it. I am having some trouble with the first Dan interview - is it at my end? The link takes me to CBS and comes up with different BB episodes instead of his interview. Am I not watching far enough?
Thanks for all you do!
September 17th, 2008 at 7:19 am
I’m sorry, Lessa. It’s me again. I had the same problem with Brian’s interview as I had with Dan’s. I’ll have to catch them later as I’m off to work.
Again, many thanks.

Sorry bout that Becky! Those are the ones they didn’t put up on youtube for whatever reason, and the direct link wasn’t working. They’re working now - takes you to the CBS page with the correct video! Enjoy!

April - delusional
Michelle - idiot
Jerry - OMG he would have won, except for the hurricane. He is a worse delusional idiot than April and Michelle
Brian - <3 So much smarter than everyone, except Dan

Thank you for posting these! Could Memphis be ANY cuter than in the video with Bunky???? As I live and breathe, darlin… Swoon!!!!!!!
Could any of you catch, in the Bunky/Memphis video, what Libra hollered (I think at Memphis) about the bannah?

Lessa next year: YOU in the backyard asking all the stuff WE want to know! Also, did we ever find out exactly what the banner said?
Thank you and I can’t wait for your Survivor site!

KAte - I’d be so tongue tied, I wouldn’t be able to do anything but fangirly squeal. I’m horrible in person. Now Email interviews? THAT I can do! *L*
Yup - the banner had nothing to do with BB, it was a birthday banner for someone.
Here’s the post after the Tuesday show where they showed a clip and I mention what it said: Happy Birthday ______, we (heart) you.

And that Thursday on the show, Julie confirmed that it had nothing to do with Big Brother at all.

Yay! These are always fun.
So I watched all the WLBB (well… I skipped ahead on some) ones, the Fab Four with Gretchen (plan on watching more later), and Dan with the CBS guy (who I don’t really like listening too). Any good ones I really shouldn’t miss?
September 17th, 2008 at 6:13 pm
I think ya hit the good ones - and yeah, CBS2’s guy is annoying, but at least this year he figured out how to hold the damn mic so we hear both question AND answer! Last season he always forgot to move the mic one way or the other.
September 17th, 2008 at 6:19 pm
Ok, cool. I’ll just skip around then. What really annoyed me about the CBS2 guy is when last year he said Jen was one of his favorites. Ugh.
September 17th, 2008 at 10:11 pm
just wanted to say thanks for all you do Lessa!!
I love your site:) See ya soon:)
September 18th, 2008 at 8:57 am
Lessa, thanks so much for posting all the links! I came here yesterday and watched most of the Bunky/WLBB interviews, and finished the rest this morning. Now today, I’ll watch all the CBS and CBS2 interviews. LOL, it’s satisfying the BB fix for now!
Thanks again for a terrific site that I was glad to find through Carolyn and BBDish. I just bookmarked your Survivor site, so I’ll be getting on board there next week. Yippee!

Hey Leesa, just thought I’d pop in and tell a few things I’ve learned from some interviews I read:
Dan’s got his job, and his work supported him fully: http://www.tvguide.com/news/big-brother-dan/080917-01
Remember all that extreme stuff Dan was talking about in his interviews and stuff before going into the house? Might be a liiiiiiiiitle exaggerated: http://www.midseasonreplacements.com/wp/?p=9303

That is totally messed up about Memphis’s car. Seems that giving away a prize that the network didn’t have the rights to is a lawsuit waiting to happen. He may get a lot more than 50 grand when this is all over.
The Evel Dick interview with April and Ollie, together, is on the Super Pass. Dick pulls no punches. He said the F word many times in telling them what we saw. April was shocked but didn’t seem real embarrassed.
September 18th, 2008 at 10:37 pm
Alicia - thanks for that TMZ link about the car that Memphis won. No surprise that BB messed up, but I would imagine that all prizes are covered in the Contracts. It doesn’t sound bad to me that the owner wants $24,000 from BB for the car. When April and the other HG’s kept escalating the value of that car, I did a quick Google search and figured the car would be somewhere in the $20,000 to $30,000 range.
At this point, BB should give Memphis the option - do you want us to get you that particular car, OR would you rather we just pay you $24,000? Personally, I would much rather have the $24,000. That car is pretty impractical, and he would just have to take some money out of whatever he nets on his $50,000 prize to pay for the taxes on the car. (Yes, I know he will have to pay taxes on the $24,000 also, but it’s better than having an impractical car and having to come up with the cash for the taxes). I would rather have $74,000 less taxes to do whatever I want to with.
Of course, everything I just said would be completely negated by the fact that there might be some crazy BB fan that would buy the car for well over its $24,000 value if Memphis auctioned it off. Nothing would surprise me, especially since there was one fan on eBay buying up a few of Stephen’s hats and t-shirts, item by item, for over $2,000 in total.
Hi Michigan Man! LOL, it looks like Carolyn might have run off with some hot Cuban masseuse! And, Lessa must be taking one hell of a long (and well deserved) nap, lol!
Thanks for the info on the Evel Dick/April interview. I’m off to go check it out now!
September 18th, 2008 at 10:48 pm
*L* I’m here! I managed to catch a touch of a head cold too (damn kids.) so have been lazy over there on the couch, but sitll here. Just posted about the car, and the update from TMZ that recently came through too.
And hey - if any of you have teenagers, or pre-teens, or know someone who does, I’m having a giveaway on (one of) my other blog(s) - check it out! http://parentingteensblog.com!

I just watched the Evel Dick interview with April and Ollie. You know, that chick has some real psychological problems that she actually seemed to ENJOY Dick calling them out on all the “f*&king”. He started out by talking about how no “piece of a$$” is worth $500,000, but I actually think that April was flattered that Dick thought of her as a “piece of a$$”. It didn’t help later when discussing Ollie’s strategies, Dick mentioned that Ollie must have planned to go into the house and get with a “hot chick”. I think April LOVED that part. I don’t know whether to laugh at her or feel sorry for her.
April was MUCH more shocked and disturbed when Dick told them that she’s known as the “b@tch of BB”. They were both surprised by that and not happy at all. It’s unbelievable that it bothers April more that people might think of her as a b@tch than the fact that everyone heard her say “c*m on me” to Ollie. I love that Dick brought that up!

Oh hi Lessa!
Sorry about the cold. I know, that’s the worst part of school, they come home with all those damn germs. I NEVER got sick until I had a school age kid! Now, I get everything that’s going around the schools.
