I don't care who wins, I'm just here for the cheap entertainment.. the cheaper, the better
This site is about the Big Brother feeds and contains spoilers! It isn't necessarily thorough: it's what I catch and/or what interests me. It also isn't necessarily about who will win, who should win, who's cute or who's horrid. It's about watching hamsters: who's doing what and why, who's fun and who's dull. If they aren't entertaining, get rid of 'em! Thanks for encouraging my behavior.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RENNY!

Breakfast club
I don't like dreaming about them, but these guys have now invaded my sleep.. I woke up to a vision of Libra starting to gradually kill them off, beginning with Memphis Bob.. it was non-sensensical like dreams often are, as she quietly stabbed him in the kitchen with their green plastic knife.. sorry, but hey, I can't be held responsible for games my subconscious plays without meI'm rarely around for their wake-up but caught it today.. it was mostly surface small talk (birthday greets to Renny, and Jerry saying "I feel good today - rested") with undercurrents of tension.. it kind of felt like the day after too much togetherness has set in at a several days' sleep-over family gathering
Jerry said Memphis Bob is staying away from him now because "he was told" if he goes after Jerry again, he'll lose his car and/or his "stippend" (Jerry's pronunciation).. Renny put in some potentially valuable chit-chat time with the outsiders, then rejoined the two blondes, Libra and Dan as they took over the downstairs bathroom for facials and non-game girl talk
"I said.. wake up!"
11.42am they felt an earthquake, and cut to fishies.. USGS is reporting it as a 5.8 centered near Chino Hills.. 5.8 is not a huge or catastrophic quake but it's definitely a good size.. when the fishies swam away they didn't seem too rattled but were talking about it, especially the non-Californians.. it's since been downgraded to a 5.4They got over the tremor quickly, and Dan's Swim Club opened for business with customers Ollie & Renny.. it was cute to see, and each of them had a sense of accomplishment after holding onto their ball and kicking from one end of the pool to the other several times.. also cute was Ollie teaching Renny a few hip hop moves, which she picked up quickly
A race discussion in HOH flirted with ugly but most came out of it okay.. April & Keesha each described incidents with individuals that they defined as a "bad experience with blacks" and "Hispanics", respectively.. Libra one-upped every story.. Ollie was the voice of reason
Psst-pssting continues unabated and the Us versus Them vibe is rampant, on both sides.. Memphis Bob told Keesha he still has her back, and Jerry told Libra he's worried about Dan's loyalties.. Keesha's still talking about Angie going
Flying pig feet, lap dances, and gladiators
BB didn't deliver a cake so they made a cookie-cake for Renny, with icing.. the outsiders set up a barricade and played pop-up dodgeball, then Renny & Dan chased each other down with a pig foot - it took a dip in the pool at one pointApril & Libra dressed up and April gave Renny a sort of lapdance (she has nothing on BB9 Natalie though).. Michelle did a more professional shimmy shake, and Libra made an effort.. Keesha cheered them all on but didn't participate
The guys dressed up in the green catsuits and assorted other accessories for a gladiator show (aka more dodgeball). Ollie won the spirit award, easily
They still think the live show is tomorrow, and they can't figure out why they haven't done farewells, take pics or blog
Some screencaps of the day are posted in the forum.. do I have to make threats to get you to click over to see them? Good, I didn't think so.. and please feel free to add comments and/or post some of your own caps, quotes, and thoughts
Daily ratings - Wakey wakey edition
Ratings are based on entertainment value
  
I don't know if this new America's Player thingy will work out well or not - and by working out well, I mean getting rid of Jessie - but we'll wait and see. Meanwhile, I'm disappointed and confused by the sudden viewer poll followed in 24 hours by the sudden and loudly touted debut of the 'twist'. It could have been a very tidy way to have Keesha dispose of Jessie this week but they didn't want to go that route.. so be it. It's their ratings. |
  
NOMINATEDShe's still hanging with the grinches more often than not, but she perked up a few times today and even showed some flashes of her old silly, laughing self. More of that, please! On a daily basis. |
 
Today we learned more things she didn't need to share and we didn't need to know, but that's our April. We also saw her cycle through more wigs & looks than Renny, and her not-so-great lapdance attempt.. well, maybe it was ok. I'm no expert, but I know she wasn't up to Natalie standards. She's really getting smug with Ollie, first trotting off and leaving him in public with a stiffie, and later being all possessive about his junk in the catsuit. Oh well, it's his funeral. |
 
From Dan's Swim School to him just being a great big kid splashing around to pop-up dodgeball, gremlin gladiators, and pig foot races, he was the all-around fun guy today and we need more of that. He's got feet in both current groups so he's either in a very good or very bad position.. time will tell. |
 
He gets a free pass today as he was neither obnoxious, creepy, lazy, or loud. He got a very easy edit on tonight's show but that wasn't his doing: he was in there on Fight Day ready to pop some punks on the feeds, and that's where it counts. |
  
NOMINATEDStill on Ignore. |
 
HEAD OF HOUSEHOLDWe learned more about her today too, including the fact that she'd like to do Playboy and that she's been in fist fights. I'm still not buying that it's all about Angie jealousy with her, but it's something. Somebody needs to get it through her head that none of them want Jessie in the jury house, and that booting him would kill two birds as it would also cripple Michelle. Time is running out here! |
 
She was a good sport today, almost joining in the lap dances and wearing a 'fro. I don't listen to a lot of her spiels, so I'm not sure what she's doing as far as recruiting Dan into a secondary failsafe alliance, but that would seem wise for someone in her position. The other team still thinks she's driving what was her team and they continue to strategize based on that.. it would get interesting if Dan were to report that news. |
 
Won: Classic CamaroSame story: he's almost always with those I don't listen to anymore, so I don't have much on him by default. He gets ups today though for playing along when it was fun & games time. |
 
See Memphis Bob. |
 
His green gremlin was the best by far, and he did the most in it including somersaults and random fly-by's. He also really put in the work in Swim Club, and you could just tell he was proud of his results - as well he should be. |
 
Hamsterwatch endorses Renny for your AP vote.BB was too cheap again to spring for their daily ONE BEER let alone a cake, but maybe they'll get around to that in combo with the other birthday girls. Meanwhile, she did get a surprise birthquake (© Wil Wheaton) today, plus a sort of lap dance, a giant chocolate chip cookie with icing and a flaming Q-tip, and a round of toss the pig foot. All in all, not the best birthday ever, but hopefully not too awful for her, and definitely memorable. |
   They all liked him and his shenanigans, but his comp potential and desperate pledges of multi allegiance got him booted anyway, plus he was Brian's pal. He entertained them and us like few have before, with skits, dances, nekkid romps, Ambien-induced bedtime stories and general looniness. Too bad he went before he made it upstairs: he'd probably have revived Bath Buddies® and done it right. |
   He made more of an impact than most who get voted out first and he had the potential to be a fan fave but he over-allied and betrayed too early and had a very negative edit to boot. He was smart, funny, and a good ringleader for the guys - time will tell if they can be as fun without him. Sock Puppet Theater on only the second night of feeds, under his direction, could be the highlight of the season. |
