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.

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.

Giddy with anticipation
The anxiety is all ours: for them, it's just another night on live network TV, and they're no more excited about it than usualMorning lockdown in HOH was a lot less crowded than it used to be, and a lot more relaxed, and cleansing the habitat was less chaotic.. for all their suspicions every week that something unusual (like a double eviction) is coming, they still won't know what hit them
Vote waffling continued, like it does.. all we can do is wait & see.. it'll be convenient if both Jerry & Michelle walk the plank to Julie's boudoir tonight, as they're both packed & ready.. heaven help them if Renny goes and the survivors have to pack all her stuff for her
Two down, five to go
Michelle & Ollie made their exits, and Jerry won the next round - something with balls based on what day things happenedHe sat around with the foursome for hours, talking himself up and boring them to tears, as usual, and putting anyone playing the Jerry Drinking Game into a stupor
Keesha got a letter and basket of goodies for her short-tenure HOH (a first) - they left it in the pantry/conference room for her.. Jerry's came after Showtime
More later, maybe
Some screencaps of the day are in the forum thanks to ABT.. big ups to lam, chris, lam, Hanto, mamafoxof3, and everyone else updating the chatrooms for those who didn't have a show

VTE = voted to evict
Ratings are based on entertainment value
  
They pulled off a logistic nightmare but they turned away ticket holders to do it - why? Well, the audience they had didn't gasp when Julie said Dan 'was not a plant' (note was.. a technicality? Well, they have to face them all afterwards, not me.) But they put on a good show and it had the kind of pace they all should. |
 
Won: $20k (presumably)#1 No vote (HOH) #2 WON VETO/DIDN'T USE #2 VTE Ollie Kudos for winning the veto, and I'm just glad he didn't pull a tinfoil one out of his pocket to do it. |
  
Won: $4k#1 no vote (nominee) #2 NOMINATED #2 No vote (nominee) HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD #2 Kudos for winning HOH but ups are neutralized by being a big, fat, full of himself bore. Any minute he'll start repeating that he's a 45-year-old single mother writing a book. We don't know what he got in his HOH room because they're trying to pretend he didn't win or move in yet, or something. |
 
#1 VTE Michelle#2 HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD #2 No vote (HOH) Ups for winning an HOH that counted, and for being so happy with her letter from JJ, polar bears, bracelet and cereal. She looks really nice when she smiles - we haven't seen that for a long time, as most of her happy times are in the bedtime greenlight anymore. |
 
Won: Classic Camaro#1 VTE Michelle #2 VTE Ollie He's still there, but maybe not for long. I don't think he's shared more than a few words with anyone now on the jury except Michelle, and their Final Two deal obviously evaporated. |
 
#1 VTE Michelle#2 VTE Ollie Also still there, and also maybe not for long. I don't think she's got any enemies on the jury - at least not compared to the rest of them - but unfortunately, it feels like her 'role' has third place written all over it. |
    He arrived as the innocent Preacher's Son but soon proved that false, as he & April shattered the record for hamster sex that included doggie-style, spanks and visuals. Nearly all of it was on the feeds, and the word spread even beyond the BB world. He was usually pleasant enough but had a temper tantrum ranking up there with the champ hissy-fitters. Like many others, he learned to swim at summer camp. |
   Almost brilliant but poor judgment kept her glued to devalued teamies and she let paranoia take over her game. She was almost good watching but poor people skills, repetitive & constant whispers, and annoying babytalk didn't help - Holly Poodle skits & medical help excepted. She's the third member of the elite Red Catsuit Club and her leaked Diary showed how much flirting really goes on in there. |
   Won: Designer clothes, $5k We've had sex on the feeds before, but we never actually saw it until she came along. She one-upped often but to her credit, she impressively won the first endurance. She had delusions about her importance in & out of the habitat, and her Barbie Battles with Keesha plus her other fights were something. But we knew from the start she wouldn't be invisible, thanks to her most unusual introduction to the others. |
   Won: Hawaii trip, $1k She ran the tie-dye room with an iron fist but only for a short time: her minions had turned on her long before Jessie & Michelle painted a bull's eye on her for being their leader. She took a lot of flak for leaving her babies and for choosing Hawaii, and her financial sob stories didn't always add up. But she told some fun stories, rebelled against giving comp recaps to Diary, and added great fireworks to fights. |
   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. |
