any man who shoves the incredible hulk (lou ferrigno) out of the way is an even bigger hero in my eyes

Not that we've been allowed to see anyway...
The American's on CA usa weren't that nice to him either...but at least we could see why and judge for ourselves.

Some people just prefer to cry bullying or intolerance.

Yes they can be wrong because the all are up each others butts.

There was no clever editing going on there. It just confirmed to me what most people are saying - that Gary is being either ignored or lectured by HMs - while saying nothing bad either to them or about them himself.

It was pretty sad to watch. He looked his age if not older, and seemed pretty exhausted by the whole thing. Who can blame him?

50 mins of live feed when tensions are running high just after nominations isn't a good indicator of anything.
He did look exhausted and no wonder after sitting there being nommed by 9 people. I imagine that would be physically and mentally draining.

It wasn't Lou that he shoved.

So violence is okay in your eyes as long as it is against someone you dislike?

Gary is good at not retaliating. He loves everyone.
I want badass Gary to make an appearance...

Gary is playing all the housemates like finely tuned fiddles and with some of them I am glad he is doing so. Any criticism they are giving him is water off a ducks back. He sits there and either listens patiently or pretends he cant hear them. He is well able for the lot of them. I don't think he should win because he CAN be very rude and his hygiene is awful. However there are plenty housemates well below him on my listing

If I hadn't watched celeb apprentice I would be convinced Gary was a poor old man being picked on too. But I'm a bit dubious. He was disruptive and a wind up at times and he drove them nuts on it as well. You seen a lot more of him in action. He had bad social skills, he was rude, inconsiderate and not a team player. When they tried to reason with him he would thank them and say he loved them so that hasn't changed either. He didn't have much of a hearing problem either, but that may have gotten worse.

Two shows with around 24 people - they can't all be uncaring and heartless to whatever degree, it doesn't compute. So it's common sense to assume the main problem stems from Gary himself. I don't think he's fake, I think that is just him. I fully believe what the HM's are saying and I think the editing is misleading. 40 minutes of live feed can't possibly give a true picture. I was hoping that he would drive them all mad, and he is - only we are not really seeing why so we are missing out, I think.
He certainly causes controversy wherever he goes, which makes him a great HM!
What are your thoughts?

It was exactly the same on celebrity rehab,from reading quite a few thing over the last few days about it it kind of shows how agrressive he is,if he is being a huge pain im not sure its fair of bb to edit it all in his favour,its wrong.

Can they? gary is a guy that was accused of beating his wife the charges were dropped,then he hit an airline steward and fought with co hosts is this really a man that sweet and gentile? i think not!

Oh and then there was the celebrity rehab thing where he had to be removed because he got pyschical,yes what a lovely man! NOT.

So yes very clever editing on big brothers behalf and if it is and its in garys favour when hes being nasty i will never ever ever watch it again.

I agree with all this. He's definitely top 3 for me.

The biased editing and treating certain HM's unfairly on the summer BB means I won't be watching IT again, ever. This CBB is looking like the same thing all over again....I hope not though. We'll see...

I wish more people would have a good old read about him,it would make a hell of a lot more sense about what exactly is going on in the house and its totally unfair of big brother.

It's like saying the kid that gets picked on at school is the problem IMO.

Gary was kinda made the scapegoat on celeb apprentice too, Meatloaf went completely mental at him for 'stealing' his paintbrush and art supplies, I mean roaring at him that he would **** him up etc (I'm a big fan of Meatloaf too) and after everything calmed down guess what happened? one of the other people found Meatloafs bag with all of his supplies and stuff in there and Gary had been innocent all along.

Again not saying Gary does no wrong, far from it but he is the easy nomination, the scapegoat IMHO, a few of the housemates that I feel have jumped on the bandwagon regarding Gary is Dee and George, neither had any problems with him until their buddies did.

But anyway even saying all that, I don't even care if Gary is 'the problem' in the house, he is the one that's keeping me watching, keeping me entertained and interested and that's why I support him.

Gary is very entertaining. I agree! Can't stop watching Gary!

[the truth]

the mans a legend, his enemies are desperados clinging to non existent straws

[JTM45]

Why question it ? Just take him for what he's doing on CBB right now!

Look how many people fell for the Helen farce without seeing through it and they all seemed to have a jolly old time supporting a grade-a bitch and feeding their money as fast as they could to the BB Bank Account!

[Fosse]

Gary FTW...He's just kicking back and laughing at his detractors.

Maybe they fear that gary will say thing to them that will make them upset or angry with him knowing the Big Brother's edit will favour gary and not them, so they choose to limit the time their spend with him out fear in being the next one out, after all David lost his temper with him at least twice and was evicted as result, James tries to talks to him about his behavior and gets booed by the crowd.

I was in that house I would be on my guard as well, around gary.

That's a fair point.

To be fair, the plus points were he was amusing, enthusiastic, I never seen him spitting or burping and his hearing was fine.

A lot can happen in two years.

Gary has never played the victim card though, the only consideration he asked was not to stay through the night outside. Everything anyone says to him, he thanks them, does anyone else do that?

I love him in the house and as these reality shows are games, the best player should win. I hope he does. I have seen a lot of his vts on line and am very impressed with them.
