Big Brother - The Donato Duo Appreciation thread #1: Cause season 8 was all about DONATOWNAGE!

missmanda · 03-02-2008, 03:54 PM

This is a thread dedicated to Dick and Daniele Donato, who completely owned season 8 of Big Brother. Not only did they face the hardest challenge of any houseguest, in having to live with a parent or child they did not exactly get along with, but they also had the whole house against them. And yet they still succeeded.

They are the u l t i m a t e underdog story.

Separate, they were amazing, but together they were unstoppable.

R e a s o n s

1. Because they were the final 2.
2. Because they were the best alliance in BB history!
3. Because they faced incredible odds, and yet still pulled through.
4. Because he was always there for her when she cried.
5. Because blood is thicker than water.
6. Because he always had faith in their ability to pull through.
7. Because he used his veto on her.
8. Because she used her veto on him.
9. Because they went on a European adventure together after the show!
10. Because despite everything they went through, they're still best friends.
11. Because he'd do anything to protect her.
12. Because he tried to sacrifice himself, to save her.
13. Because they can make each other laugh.
14. Because she told him he could step down during the Endurance competition.
15. Because Dick is a tough guy, but Daniele's the only one who can make him break down and cry.

I thought they were amazing. Wasn't much of a Dick fan at all, but I loved Daniele and I loved watching their relationship get better in the house. They just killlled it, great job to them for making F2 and winning.

That was my favorite part. At times I felt as though we shouldn't be seeing it but other times I really enjoyed seeing the evolution of them.

howmuchforhappy · 03-02-2008, 05:56 PM

Yeah, sometimes it felt like we were intruding on something so private. But others, it just made you smile at how close they had grown. Dick was always there for Daniele, no matter the situation or how she felt for him at the time.

missmanda · 03-02-2008, 06:04 PM

Added you all!

& added some fan art. Sorry if it sucks, but it's the best we have for now

Photoshop is fun.

Their relationship in the house was just so tearjerking! One minute they were laughing together, the next Daniele was crying and he was trying to comfort her. I felt so invested in their relationship! I was rooting for them til the end.

I miss them!

Anyways, do we want to add reasons and such? I love OPs. Hee.

howmuchforhappy · 03-02-2008, 06:09 PM

Love the opening. It looks great.

stormy eyes · 03-02-2008, 06:51 PM

Aw, I love the opening too. It looks so pretty.

missmanda · 03-02-2008, 06:52 PM

Well thank you both so much!

I'm an opening expert, just completed a 200th milestone a couple of weeks ago. Now THAT was tricky.

Ok so some reasons...

1. Because they were the final 2.
2. Because they were the best alliance in BB history!
3. Because they faced incredible odds, and yet still pulled through.
4. Because he was always there for her when she cried.
5. Because blood is thicker than water.
6. Because he always had faith in their ability to pull through.
7. Because he used his veto on her.
8. Because she used her veto on him.
9. Because they went on a European adventure together after the show!
10. Because despite everything they went through, they're still best friends.
11. Because he'd do anything to protect her.
12. Because he tried to sacrifice himself, to save her.
13. Because they can make each other laugh.
14. Because she told him he could step down during the Endurance competition.
15. Because Dick is a tough guy, but Daniele's the only one who can make him break down and cry.
