SEE IT ALL! THE FIGHTS - THE SEX - THE WEIRD STUFF THAT CBS WON'T SHOW YOU
This site is about the Big Brother 11 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.

FAQ
There are four teams: Populars, Jocks, Brainiacs, and Offbeats.
Teamies of the HOH cannot be nominated, but they can compete in the next week's HOH comp.
Comps determine living conditions for the teams. The losers live in the Jail room with lights always on cold water showers, and slop.
Viewer votes determine one additional food item the sloppers can have.
Hamsters earn $750 a week including pre-show hotel and jury sequester. It's possible Jessie gets more (BB7 All-Stars did).
The habitat has 52 cameras and 80 mics.
The recorded Big Brother in-house announcements are the voice of producer Don Wollman.

Morning after
After Lydia & Jessie's lovemaking or gross-out, depending on your perspective, she couldn't get him alone while they all waited for the veto comp: by the time she tapped on the door, Natalie and Chima had both spent time under the soiled HOH bedcoversBig Brother told them last night they had to stay up til midnight - that's not out of the ordinary since it's the usual rules for Showtime (several napped anyway), but most of them took it to mean they'd have either a night-time or an early morning sleep-deprived comp.. neither was the case and they sat around dozing & griping for hours today til the Trivia finally took them away around 1.30pm
Three hours later, Michele won the veto in a messy comp involving points, and Jessie asked her to suggest someone to put up in her place, saying he wouldn't tell anyone (but he's already told Natalie about the offer) - Michele said she'll think about it.. Casey has to wear a banana suit, Jessie won $2,500, and they won a margarita party but the Brainy Have-nots can't attend.. there was also a plasma TV but I don't know if someone won it or not? Both Jessie & Chima got banged up a bit
Evening brought assorted fun including a boozy, glaring, Natalie-bashing Lydia in 1978 punk regalia, and Natalie trashing Lydia in turn, but alas, the hoped-for showdown still hasn't happened

Daily Ratings - Sleeping Hamsters Lie edition
Ratings are based on entertainment value
  
I'm afraid the banana suit's a one-time sort of gag but we have to go through five days of it. The bunny suits of BB8 were far more inspired.. they should have done those again, or doggie suits, chicken suits, you name it. Another Saturday when weekday workerbees get a chance to watch the feeds, and all they got was a few hours of waiting/sleeping hamsters followed by a few hours of trivia. Is the weekly cycle of events planned intentionally around the average work week, so that no more feedsters than necessary see what really goes on before it's all edited into something else for CBS? Well, at least the evening perked up some thanks to a long-awaited booze delivery, even if Lydia & Natalie didn't come to blows (yet). |
|
  
Team OffbeatHe started the day by saying he looked like Ed Norton from 'The Honeymooners' and it was true: he did. Unfortunately for him, he ended the day as an angry banana. He's not looking forward to doing the live show as a banana, but he doesn't realize yet that it'll make him Julie's favorite and the star of the show. Most figure he'll be the veto replacement but I think Jessie wants to keep him around. |
 
Team BrainI'm enjoying her flirty cozying up with Russell, and I like that she rails on production a lot because someone has to. I also like that she got scraped in the comp but just fixed herself up without making a federal case of it. It was fun watching her do her hair today, which came out looking really nice after a long time working on it. Sure, she can be annoying but she wasn't today, at least I didn't think so. I suspect she'll be the replacement nominee: she's Jessie's only safe option - but he might be too afraid of her reaction to do it. |
 
Team JockOnce more, he provided lots more funny lines and more sippy hamsterwatchers today, along with a hilarious description of 'March of the Penguins'. Feedsters everywhere go 'awww' every time he hangs out with Jordan (which is most of the time) - they're just that cute together. She may have said she could 'only be friends' but he seems utterly smitten with her - his face lights up whenever he talks with her. Anyway, what kind of 'just friends' spend all day laying around entwined with each other? They're still in the dark about how Ronnie got back to being a full citizen, but they have their suspicions. |
  
Team Jock - Won: $2,500HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD He's still on ignore but there sure is a lot going on around him. He's painted himself into a corner and now has a severe lack of potential nominees, so he should be getting some flak after the veto meeting, and also next week. He blundered big by telling Lydia she could cut his hair and then letting Natalie do it, and that set off the evening's girl-on-girl tension. Of all the hamsters we've known in 10 years of this stuff, it just seems impossible that our first showmangle revolves around him. |
 
Team PopularNOMINATED She had another huge disappointment when neither she nor Jeff won her safety today and it seems to be taking a toll: she just hasn't been her usual perky self except when she's laying around with Jeff. She slept through most of booze time, but before that I think she ate about three dinners - for one of them she was all alone on all four feeds, and it was kind of sad. Ups are just for being her: even when she tells a TMI story or can't tell time, most of us don't cringe like we normally would - we just go awww, that's our Jordan. |
 
Team OffbeatThe minute Lydia & Jessie 'finished' Saturday morning, she started ordering him to get more chummy with Kevin, and today she schooled Kevin about her & Kevin's position, and how getting rid of Jordan would put more heat on them. Voilà! Jessie made his way to Kevin to chat at the hot tub for a few (ninja Natalie was there too, of course). When drunken Lydia was haranguing Kevin about Natalie, I'm sure I saw a thought bubble over his head that said 'Good lord, how did I get saddled with this for my ally?' Ups are for Kevin's continuing easy friendship with Russell, as the two of them seem such an odd couple but they're great fun together. Tonight's game of pool included (phony) shouting, a flying lap attack, and a big hug finish. |
 
Team OffbeatIt's simply amazing how much she can get away with in a day. She ended the last one by taking Operation Sexbomb to its finale, then she proceeded to rant & rave about Natalie all day to anyone who'd listen, including a few direct pokes at Natalie herself. She made a huge deal over the haircut duties she was promised, then denied, and then witnessed her replacement; and she got dressed up in what was possibly meant for shock value but just looked like the 30-year-old getup it was. She got drunk and glared at everyone more than even Laura could, and she wrapped it all up by washing the spikes out of her hair and hanging out with Jessie again and telling him what to do again, as if none of that had happened. Finally she sat down to chess with Kevin & Lydia. A totally ups-worthy day all around, except she won't actually start the fight. |
 
Team BrainNOMINATED - HOLDS VETO Ups for winning the veto when she had to, even though that seems to be the norm this season. She made dinner and poked around the garden in her F-me heels, but she balanced that by putting in some good socializing time tonight in the greenlight. She educated the group a bit about her bisexuality, and the financial & social benefits proponents of gay marriage want. In exchange, she learned what 'March of the Penguins' is about. |
 
Team Jock - Won: Slop passShe's talked a few times about having a little brother with Down's syndrome and why she hates the word 'retarded', but tonight it became a little sister - hmmm. She wore a 420 shirt today which was surprising, and she stepped into Lydia's barber shoes and cut Jessie's hair in Lydia's face - but so did Jeff. Jessie kept running to Natalie, firing up Lydia more each time, but he had to tell Natalie to stop talking about the cash he won. Lydia poked her about her age lie a few times and her personal style, but like Lydia, all these little jabs haven't yet led to the blowout we're all expecting, so no ups today. |
 
Team BrainNow that he's back in the habitat society, he's back to talking too much, but he shut up at one point when Natalie corrected him about some BB10 comp. He talks so much that he's like white noise in the background, interfering with our fun, but he really interfered with Chima & Russell's backyard cuddling by yacking at them nonstop about debates and ghosts. |
 
Team JockHe's not only more fun every day, he's also showing his smarts. He reminded Jessie & Natalie that people notice stuff and the cameras see everything, since apparently they forgot these things. His pool game with Kevin was great fun, as was his cozying with Chima in the backyard and spooning in bed. I'm not sure what people who don't like him are seeing: his yelling has been mostly for show and/or fun, he lets others talk without interrupting or changing the subject, his laugh is totally infectious, and he's got one of the best senses of humor in there. I wouldn't be surprised if he & Chima make out before Jeff & Jordan - they may have already gotten there by the time I upload this. |
    Team Popular - Won: Nothing She was the star of the first CBS eps although she was barely in there. Her boobies were a show in themselves, and she protested way too much about the attention they got (usually while thrusting them at anyone handy). Mostly she was a miseryguts, glaring & pouting, and claiming to have everything figured out like BB9 Allison but with Shelley Duvall's voice. Her face-off with Jessie was memorable thanks to 'let me get down to your level', 'you're not the boss of me' and 'thrown under the river'. |
   Team Popular - Won: Nothing His nekkid pics got out before the premiere, he said Julie's a ho, and he started a race riot in there - but his target Kevin wasn't offended by the words as much as that they hadn't been buddies. The habitat went nuts waffling about his eviction vote (vs Chima) but he was barely involved, although he did provide the fodder for her most shocking nominee speech ever. Despite all that, Braden turned out to be a funny hamster and a great third to the Jeff & Jordan comedy team. |
