No one
Big Brother house guest has had as big an impact as
Big Brother 8's Evel
Dick Donato over the past couple of years. The bawdry, profane, ultimately victorious elder statesmen has stayed in the
Big Brother spot light since he won the $500,000 top prize last summer. He was a staple of House Calls during
Big Brother 9, and has kept his fans (and enemies) up to date on his whereabouts via MySpace for the past year. Love him or hate him (and there seem to be an equal amount of people on both sides of that coin), Evel Dick is an entertaining individual and
Big Brother is better off having him around.
Big Brother 10, which debuts in less that two weeks on Sunday, July 13, will very much utilize the services of Mr. Donato. In addition to House Calls, Dick will host his very own show on Real Player for the live feed watchers.
This is all being reported thanks to a post by Dick on his own MySpace page, so you could say it's not entirely official. I trust him, though. Anyway, Dick's duties on House Calls might be scaled back a little bit this year. He'll be on every Thursday, and will talk to the evicted house guests (the
Big Brother live eviction episodes will be on Wednesdays).
The Real Player show will air for live feed watchers every Wednesday at 6pm ET/3pm PT, when the feeds go dark in preparation for the live eviction. As for what you can expect on Dick's Real Player show, I'll let Evel himself explain it: “You will get to see a very loosely put together show of sorts that I will be doing live from the Cat Club on Sunset Blvd, here in Hollywood. I will have guests, friends and random people on the show with me talking about the previous week on Big Brother. Talking about everything, nothing will be censored.”
If you don't like Dick, then you don't have to tune in. He won't be forced down your throat. However, if you miss the man, then the Real Player show should be a fun time. I especially like the fact that it'll be uncensored and, it appears, completely at the whim of Dick himself. Now, we just have to hope that CBS has done their job in casting a quality group of house guests for
Big Brother 10.
Will you watch Dick's Real Player show?
