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.

Jeff won the Coup d'Etat in a public vote and used it to replace Chima's noms (Lydia & Russell) with Jessie & Natalie
Food comps determine living conditions: the losers lived in the Jail room with lights always on (now over); cold water showers, and slop.
Viewer votes determine one additional food item the sloppers can have.
Teams are over. There were four teams: Populars, Jocks, Brainiacs, and Offbeats.
Teamies of the HOH could not be nominated, but they could compete in the next week's HOH comp.
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.
Sadly, Craig Ferguson was not recycled back in this year.

HOW'S THE WEATHER?

Raking more muck

I wouldn't bother with all this investigative reporting if we had interesting hamsters and interesting feeds but since we don't, I am compelled to present another casting peculiarity for your enjoyment
I've mentioned before that Natalie and BB10 April Dowling are both from the Phoenix area, and that April and Natalie's dad both work in the auto sales industry - at least April did then.. well, once again it gets worse
Natalie's dad works at a Toyota/Scion dealer, one in a conglomerate that owns several dealerships in the area, and April often talked about her job in the credit department at a large conglomerate of dealerships.. further digging turned up that they do indeed work for the same firm - or April did at the time anyway; I haven't kept up with her since she left the feeds.. I won't post links here as I don't want to encourage phone calls and the like to innocent bystanders (especially since they're not the two most popular hamsters of all time), but it's all easily found if you know how to Google
April was billed as being from Higley, AZ, a small town that was absorbed by Gilbert, AZ in 2007, where Natalie lives - is all this yet another small world coincidence? Maybe.. add it to the pile that includes Jessie & Casey working the same bikini contests, BB6/7 Janelle working at the same club as BB2 Hardy when she was cast, BB9 Chelsia knowing Jessie in high school, BB3/7 Marcellas knowing Chima, et cetera, et cetera - the list is long
The real question is what happens to the thousands of eager applicants who make & send in tapes, and stand in line at open casting calls? Why can't we get real people on this show instead of the ever-present actormodel wannabes and who-knows-who incestuous referrals?
Otherwise, no news to report

The afternoon backyard lay-around session carried on as usual, with some of them laying around on pool floaties and some on sofas.. they're all pleasant enough in each other's company, but they're all getting mouthier about each other when they go off in their pairs
Jordan kept up her argument that nectarines are really peaches, and Jeff made up some concoction that he later let Jordan lay on the grill.. there were no incidents, but Jeff put the cooked chicken back in his prep bowl - salmonella would be a huge score for the grill.. or so I thought: unfortunately I've since been informed that he rinsed it
A small booze delivery didn't help matters, and they dulled the night away: Kevin suggested Texas hold'em again even though he hated it the other night.. Jordan & Russell both sat out until exactly midnight when Showtime ended, but we didn't get any fights, accusations of (Natalie) cheating, or other items of interest when they finally did join

Daily Ratings - Holy Macaroni edition

Ratings are based on entertainment value
 
Funny how they left out all hamster discussions about Natalie's age but they threw it in via Natalie's Diary out of the blue - foreshadowing perhaps? The Jeff's too sexy for his shirt piece was late but cute, and I like how they make sure to have Michele & Russell wearing their glasses when they're having a brainy convo. The weird part of Sunday's show was the insertion of the Fractured Foursome's backyard 'let's have cake' discussion, since it took place before Lydia's eviction. But seriously, who cares about that stuff anymore? The real question is why don't they remind the hamsters about the Jeff/Jordan/Lydia/Kevin promise not to put each other up, that's now been broken twice by Jorff? Then we'd have some fun, and they'd have something to put on the show that had a little logic behind it.

Team Jock Won: Hawaii trip HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD HOLDS VETO
His fighty-flirty style with Jordan is getting real old, and distastefully reminiscent of Jessie & Lydia.. tonight he mock-smothered her with a pillow for at least the second time. He still pops some funnies on a regular basis, but his HOH-itis is starting to develop and he's getting snappy and big headed.
|
 
Team Popular
She avoided group poker by staring into space alone in the hammock, perhaps thinking of puppies and cotton candy, and when she finally got up to go inside she looked as much like a bag lady as Natalie ever did. To her credit, she seemed to pick up Bullshit pretty fast, but she was surprised to learn you can lie in poker.
|

 
Team Offbeat Won: $10,000 NOMINATED
He shocked Natalie by saying he doesn't believe in God, so that could lead to a future storyline when their partnership finally breaks up. He also slipped something about his father past the feedmasters, when he described how dad took little Kevin to see the Care Bears movie. No comment about that chirpy, chatty guy showing up again in Diary: I think it must be Kevin's twin.
|

 
Team Brain
Her big moment of the day came when she was working out with Jordan, and spontaneously started describing how her most embarrassing thing is uncontrollable queefing while doing crunches. She did not demonstrate.
|

 
Team Jock Won: Phone call NOMINATED
I'm thinking maybe BB10 April coached her about being too provocative, which could explain why she won't discuss anything sexual. Or maybe there's another reason, but I won't go there. I was really hoping and expecting her age lie would come out tonight around the poker table but no. Her high point today was suggesting to Kevin they hide and rearrange things around the house to make the others think a memory/observation comp was coming, but they never followed through.
|

 
Team Jock Won: $10,000, Massage
Just when he should be erupting and saying or doing something to make sure he doesn't go up tomorrow, he laid low and slept a lot - while complaining he hasn't slept in a week and a half. He doesn't even complain about being on slop, although it's clearly messing him up. Maybe he'll blow tomorrow, if Jeff does indeed put him up.
|

 

Team Offbeat Won: Plasma TV, 1 week Captain Unitard She gave HJs & a condom event for safety, then seemed to really be crushing on Jessie - against all odds. She whined, fake-cried & babytalked too much, was volatile, and the only creative one, making an amazing trashbag suit and Play-doh creations. She shlurred her screams about her catsuit costume but later wore it without complaint, and well. She may have been a damage control exit due to Mills-McCartney Nannygate but we'll never know for sure.
|

 

Team Brain Won: Nothing She began as a sympathetic character with her horrific story and positive outlook about it, and then things got weird. She flirted with Russell, planned a fake fight with him that happened exactly as scripted, and then they appeared to be mortal enemies. She had a raging and ultimately fatal case of HOH-itis and her hard fall from that was on live TV. With her subsequent nom she got petty, bitter & rebellious, and then she vanished. But she's a strong, smart woman and she'll survive this too.
|

 

Team Jock Won: $2,500 He showed up again uninvited and pretty much killed the feeds for those who were glad to see him leave last year. This time he had a new chin, only talked about himself again, got pink toenails, lost weight, mangled more words, got (at least) four HJs and one condom event with Lydia, all while playing he was Natalie's BFF. He went on Hamsterwatch ignore early during this second stint, and once again got his empty wheel before his time, so I don't have much more to say except hallelujah, he's gone!
|

 

Team Brain Won: Nothing He looked great on paper but his BB expertise was more stats & CBS versions than anything practical - he obviously missed the start of BB10 or he wouldn't have duplicated Brian's suicidal game. He played a dirty game that included a Michele smear campaign, but Natalie did most of the dirty work he took credit for. He exiled himself a couple times, didn't share his HOH camera, talked non-stop (usually about himself), and generated more hate around the BB interwebs than most.
|

 

Team Offbeat - Won: 1 week banana gig Videos of him & Jessie together surfaced early and their covert partnership ran the house for two weeks, but that deal expired after the Ronnie Mutiny was forgotten and Casey was blamed for Natalie's hinky vote. His quick wit provided memorable one-liners on a daily basis, and they only got better from both Angry Banana and Sad Banana. He came in like an aging Mike Boogie but he got past that, earning lots of fans thanks to his humor, his laid back style, and his ability to not take it all so seriously.
|

 

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.
