Big Brother 8 - A Cast of Doers, not Whiners

I am really loving this season's cast of Big Brother 8. I've been thinking about it, and I have to say the number one reason is this: they are all doers.

They don't wait for BB/production to provide them with things to do, instead they create their own forms of entertainment, and/or are completely fun and watchable in their own right.

1. Dick creates games for everyone to play out of things in the house. Not to mention the fact that Dick alone is entertaining enough for anyone, and he talks directly to the internet viewers every night.
2. Dustin is the house personal trainer/therapist, leading abs classes for whomever wants to participate every day, and being there sympathetically for Amber. He's also shaping up to be a serious gamer.
   
3. Nick and Dani are just adorable to watch together, and outside relationships notwithstanding, they are wonderful for the showmance loving crowd.
4. Nick alone, with his gay-for-play game style, is eye candy for the masses, funny as hell, and just seems a really decent person. It's that Minnesota thing... Good Folk.
   
5. Joe, with his nightly storytime, and daily over the top shenanigans, can improv everyone into the giggles, while flitting about from alliance to alliance, and holding his own in any debate. He may not be long for the BB world, but he's certainly made an impression. Come on.. Who else but Joe would blurt out on National Television that he'd had gonorrhea?
   
6. Mike, with his made for Showtime date-nights, is just a trip to watch. His late night spying routine last night was funny as hell. At least he didn't hide in any planters.
   
7. Zach, the self described consumate BB professional gamer and all around man's man, except when he's stewing in jealousy over Nick and Dani, and I'm still unclear which one he's really jealous over, is entertaining in his self-assuredness.
8. Jen... really do I even need to say anything about Jen? Love her or hate her, she's a sight to behold, a bonding factor for all the other HGs and the feed viewing audience, a ratings draw for the male 15-49 category, and as HoH, she's instilling a holy reign of terror.
   
9. Jameka is a complete crack-up, and if she keeps giving Kail stepping lessons, she has my vote for the win. Too funny.
10. Amber is our resident massage therapist, empath and sweetheart. Minus the willingness to go into great detail about health issues, which I avoid cuz who wants to hear about my problems, she's the HG I most identify with. She's 100% real, no pretense, no b.s.

I could go on, but you get the picture. Each of these houseguests brings something significant to the table, and makes the feeds and the show worth watching.

That was the one thing that drove me nuts about a few of the players on Allstars: constant whining about being bored. I wanted to strangle a couple of them. Buck up and be an intelligent human! Make your own fun. Stop complaining allll the time. Nobody wants to hear it.

Just my 2 cents... back to the feeds I go... it's gonna be good tonight. Everyone's making their play to stay off the block and point the attention in someone else's direction.

The game is definitely on.
