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.

Thursday's eviction show kept them in second place with a 4.1 rating and 7 share, behind 'So You Think You Can Dance' on Fox with 5.5/10.
AMERICA'S PLAYER
Task 1: Who should Dan get nominated? Jessie/successful
Task 2: Who should Dan hug for 10 seconds? Jessie/successful
Task 3: Who should Dan vote to evict? Jessie/successful
Dan gets $20k if successful and not discovered. Apparently the previously-announced 4th task has evaporated. It's not clear whether all the 'Dan is America's Player' suspicions will invalidate him.

>> Michelle is Head of Household - Keesha & Libra are nominated - Jerry won veto <<
Hurry up and wait
Some of them were talking about how much fun they'd be having if they hadn't voted out Steven & Brian.. them and us tooI thought I'd heard they were told to be ready for the veto comp at 10am, but at 2pm they were still sitting around waiting.. most of them are looking forward to their feast tonight: I have to admit I was almost hoping it would be a combo event: whoever eats the most raw lobster with cockroach sauce wins the veto, or something, but no such luck
Jerry does it again
April, Jerry & Memphis Bob joined the three VIPs for the comp, adding yet more fuel to their "Dan is the AP" suspicions.. it took another three hours or so, but Jerry won the veto again, apparently by chopping onionsHe credited a past life as a potato chopper for his win.. Libra came in second, again
Jerry leaned in for a hug with Keesha as he promised he'd use the veto on her, as agreed with Michelle and her hug, and that demon spawn Dan would go up instead as a kind of lesson, or something.. Memphis Bob wore his onions around with his $85 shirt, but they had more of a Wilma Flintstone look than his v-neck designer likely had in mind
Dinner for nine
It started tense, with all of them locked in HOH for two hours showering, primping and making a nuisance of themselves.. they were finally released to a sumptuous feast - that was coldThey all dug in and enjoyed it anyway.. Renny set things off by toasting everyone around the table with mostly glowing words: her various subtle gems went >whooosh< over most of their heads, as usual.. then they all took a turn saying glowing things about each other
Keesha's were pointed mostly at April: she sounded like she was making nice but she wasn't being particularly nice about it.. Libra sounded like she was giving her nominee speech.. Dan choked up when he told Jerry he was sorry things went the way they did, and that he'd thought of Jerry as a grandfather he didn't have, making Jerry tear up
By the time they finished dinner, they were well liquored up and they kept on drinking, and then the fights began, like they do
Libra ran away to cry before the lovefest was even finished, then cornered Ollie in the pantry afterward to beat him up for a long time about "ho and scallywag".. meanwhile, Keesha & April revived the Barbie Battles in the spa
Pretty soon it was another free-for-all, with the Battling Barbies duking it out all over the habitat, Libra making a big deal of everything in the universe, and all of them blaming everyone but themselves for Steven, Angie and especially the flip to Jessie
Michelle got into it with Libra in a big way and several others, but her biggest battles were with herself: she threw solo tantrums in the backyard, the living room, and outside her own HOH room.. it was peculiar to say the least, and very amusing
The guys stayed out of the way as much as they could, other than Jerry who of course butted in here & there when one of the battles rolled into his vicinity.. Memphis Bob tried to get absorbed into the pool.. Ollie & Dan tried to sink into the living room couches for awhile.. Ollie finally made a safe getaway, but Dan's attempt to hide in the shower backfired when Michelle found him there
Renny, who set this whole thing in motion with her dinner toasts (and probably the mutiny that evicted Jessie as well), showed up here & there, giving hugs to the distressed.. her name never came up in any of the evening's blame gamesAll in all, it was a very fun evening with about four hours of chaos that will get boiled into four minutes for CBS.. it really pointed out the utter necessity of booze in there

Daily ratings - Bang! Crash! Pow! edition
Ratings are based on entertainment value.. there was lots today
  
It's not right of them to stick everyone in HOH when it's still someone's power room, let alone when it's primping hour. It's also not right to take two hours to set up a meal and then serve it cold. It is however very fitting to serve mass quantities of wine & beer with the meal, giving us the kind of show we pay to see. |
  
Won: Designer clothes, $4k (TBC)Well, our new drinking game got off with a bang tonight. She didn't have as much to say as some of the others during all the shouting and finger-shaking, maybe because she's guiltier of more of the flying accusations than most of them. Fortunately for Ollie, they didn't get busy tonight.. she might have killed him if they had. |
 
Won: $20k (presumably)Kudos for making Jerry feel the guilt over what an ass he's been the last couple days, and for doing it in such a sweet and sincere way. I don't know if it'll help much, but it can't hurt. Ups also for Dan's feeble attempts to hide from all the raging females. You had to feel bad for the guy - this is probably all new for him - but it was also funny watching him duck. |
 
Won: $5k (TBC)HOLDS VETO I have to give him credit for a second veto win in a row, even though it's swelled his head til it's too big to fit into his USMC hat. He got misty when he heard Dan's heartfelt speech, and deservedly so: Jerry's been very nasty & bitter about Dan, and the lengths he's gone to and the things he's said have been totally uncalled for. |
 
NOMINATEDShe put on a show of shows, and kept recycling and playing it through again at louder & louder volume. I thought we'd heard all of her vocal variations, but when she starts screaming, it's an all new sound effect and a very unique one. For being as volatile and outspoken as she is, she's sitting very pretty right now. She'll likely be saved on Monday, and she's in excellent standing with Renny, Jerry, Memphis Bob, and now probably with Michelle too. |
 
Won: Hawaii trip, $1k (TBC)NOMINATED I seriously thought her head was going to explode tonight, several times. And for a bonus, she kept getting shoo'd away when she'd try to join various fights in progress throughout the night. Even after all her many outbursts and explanation attempts, she's very likely as much of a goner as she was before dinner. |
 
Won: Classic CamaroIt was weird enough seeing him forced to chat with his old nemesis Jerry for most of the night, but when the fighting girls took it outside a few times, he couldn't get low enough in the pool to stay out of the line of fire.. I kept thinking I bet he wishes he had a snorkel. |
 
HEAD OF HOUSEHOLDFirst they all took over her room and bathroom for two hours: that'd be enough to make anyone spit. But then revelation upon revelation got the better of her, and she started questioning everyone except her dearly departed Saint Jessie, who's the one who fed her all her faulty info to start with. Her solo tantrums will go down as one of the highlights of BB10, rivaling Edward Norton's office fight with himself in Fight Club. Thanks to Michelle, there are about 49 pillows in the wrong place around the habitat tonight. |
 
Once he escaped Libra in the pantry, he did pretty well for himself tonight and avoided most of the worst of the flying flak. He & Dan couldn't sink deep enough into the couches at one point when the living room became center stage, but he finally made a clean escape and wasn't heard from again.. not even at bedtime with April. |
 
She is truly the master at the subtle dig, personality profiling, and manipulation without malice. So much so, that she's beginning to make Dr. Will look like an amateur. |
    The first to get an empty wheel before their time, his comic relief wore off fast and he brought nothing but a major mirror obsession and raging insecurity. But it's not all bad: he laid around in pink pillows and talked himself gone with rampaging harangues, and he'll carry the fact that he lost to a girl while wearing spandex, then lost to three girls plus Renny. Rehabs will profit from the Jessie Drinking Game. |
   The third fan fave to walk the plank, she was a great sidekick to the fun guys but she didn't bring much after they left, including any real attempt to save herself. Like many who have gone before, she seems like she'd be a cool person in reality, but this isn't. Her angry hat and illegal tribute bandana aside, she did a great Julie puppet and manscaping. Bikini fans will miss her, as will the Behind Pillows alliance. |
   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. |
