Big Brother 15
Daily Hamsterwatch
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 16 feeds and contains spoilers! It isn't necessarily thorough: it's what I catch and/or what interests me, and it 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. Thanks for encouraging my behavior.
Your pal, dingo

This is the end (Tuesday 9/23)

The end of feeds, anyway.. they'll do an official farewell in the morning before they disappear behind Jeffish for the rest of the day to primp, prepare, chat freely, finish packing, and get hyped up for the show with music

It's been an extra long haul this season.. as BB15 Spencer correctly pointed out in an On The Block recently, if we'd heard in advance about a huge dominant alliance plowing through everyone and/or that one mastermind hamster would engineer every eviction undetected, it might have sounded great on paper, but in practice, it led to less than super exciting feeds.. still, the Extracurricular Tally is pretty much packed once again, despite the booze drought - that was the #1 cause of the dull, in my opinion

Meanwhile the jury has deliberated already, without their 9th member, who will make up a question on the spot or have one handed to him or her tomorrow night in the midst of their big "I lost BB" adrenalin crash, and they'll cast a vote that's a lot less informed than the other jurors, but that's the way they do things these days

Dr Will showed up again for the candlelight vigil, and he'll surely have a few good quips and probably some on-target zings for us.. we also have the two big reveals to look forward to: Team America and related cash, plus Derrick's actual occupation.. see you then!

Time to pack, finally (Monday 9/22)

They got their bags, and Derrick begin to pack for the first time - on Day 95! Incredible.. otherwise it was another day of not much, except another funny Victoria story about recording her intro piece for the premiere

In other news, both Momma Grande and Ariana changed their tune and endorsed Zach for the $25k about 12 hours before the vote closed.. despite the timing and whatever the reason, be it altruism or just business, I took it as a good thing.. it might just be baby steps after their prior tweets for Frankie (which were unfair even by BB standards simply due to the numbers), at least they were baby steps in the right direction.. I'll take any bit of positivity I can get at this point - somehow this season ended up being as nasty out here as the last one.. (and I'm not going to debate the Zach versus Donny question anymore)

How to pick a winner

It's time to haul out this old chestnut seasonal favorite and gentle reminder again.. please to enjoy

I've always maintained it doesn't matter a bit who gets the money unless you're a second cousin or better, but some Hamsterwatchers seem to care who wins, so I once again present the following for your rooting enjoyment.. after all, feedsters are more qualified to make a selection than bitter jurors - we don't see any relevant Diary footage anymore since they don't air any of the meaty stuff, but we've seen far more than the jury, so they too need to use one of these methods:

Played the best game
This is the popular, politically correct method that everyone claims to use, but nobody really does.. Derrick has the obvious edge here but Cody won a fair amount of comps and is liked.. even Victoria's game wasn't that awful, whether you want to admit it or not: her involuntary version of Spencer's unusual 'pawn me' strategy worked out well enough to get her this far.. but nearly every 'game' falls into one of the other categories, so don't feel pressured to root for anyone through some misguided urge to be PC

Lied the best/most
This one's a little squirrely as it crosses over into ethical/unethical territory, and that leads to arguments about politics and/or religion, and that leads to flame wars every time.. BB2/7 Dr. Will is the exception here: he won by skirting the moral issues and flat-out lied about everything except the fact that he was lying, and he was light years more fun & charming about it than anyone on this season.. personally, I'm ready to put Derrick right up there next to Dr Will for game, but that entertainment factor counts big for me

Needs the money most
Please! We all 'need' a half million dollars! Anyone who goes on a tv show to pay their Visa bill or because they can't scrape together the next car payment should consider credit counseling, bankruptcy, gambling, or steady employment - we're all sick of the sob stories

Cutest/sexiest/dreamiest
Generally a favorite method for feedsters, but more jury members are closet cutest-sexiest-dreamiest voters than they'll admit.. any Cody votes might end up in this category

Smartest player
A favorite for feedsters and jury alike, it's what most really mean when they say 'best game' - basically it means 'smarter than me' - but given the fact that we're dealing with people who've spent three months pooping on tv, being humiliated for our enjoyment, and making their friends & families ashamed to claim them, most hamsters are eliminated from this category when they complete their BB application

Played like I would
The big daddy for feedsters who haven't caught on that everyone's different and everyone does different things for different reasons.. it's the most popular judging criteria and the dumbest: they aren't you, they haven't seen everything you've seen, and until you're in there for three months of paranoia, daily slander, and Diary messing up your better judgment, you can't possibly know what you'd do in there.. get over it

Backstabbing revenge
One of the elimination categories, this one's about rooting for anyone except the player who took out your favorite (or yourself, if on the jury).. this one usually decides the winner.. in gamespeak it's also known as 'nothing personal'

Creeped me out
Another elimination category and a big one some seasons, this is rooting for anyone except the player who gives you the willies or reminds you of your ex.. more popular among feedsters than the jury, which is odd: they're the ones who lived with the creepies - we can shut 'em off.. feel free to cite this one if you need an excuse to abstain from voting

I just like him or her
Hands-down easiest method because it requires no reasons or explanations, making it the best category to avoid involvement in flame wars.. however, you might be expected to back it up with something else in most BB chats, boards, and global social media outlets

Deserves to win
This usually means you don't know or don't care and are probably just afraid of getting involved in a flame war.. however, this season is an exception because Derrick really does deserve to win

Most entertaining
A personal favorite and while you might say this season it doesn't apply, we actually have a three-way tie here between Derrick's constant undetected manipulation of gullible hamsters, Cody whacking himself in the face in his sleep, and Victoria's crow

Played with integrity
This is a nice pipe dream for optimists and romantics, but not much more: in reality tv, the good tend to die young

I hate them all equally
Most feedsters end up here sooner or later

Ratings - No more editions

I don't expect to do more ratings this season - there just really isn't much to work with - but will keep this section alive for status updates, winnings, and obits of course



Post-mortem to follow at some point





Won: 24 hrs kicking self, 1 week dinosaur

WON PART 1






Won: $25,000, 5,000 hollas
TEAM AMERICA

WON PART 2






Won: $5,000, 48 hr Adam & Eve with Caleb







Won: $5,000, shaved head, 48 hr Adam & Eve with Victoria, football trip

His Amber obsession was creepy and sad, and their trainwreck breakup convo (which CBS shamefully overlooked) and pickle date were the kind of thing that make feedsters' jaws hang open. He boasted and swaggered like he was the best person alive, then he wore an angry onesie to have a bunny slippers tantrum. He repeated himself way too much, but at the end of the day, he brought a lot of humor to the feeds - most of it unintentional.





Won: $20,000, football trip
TEAM AMERICA

I was prepared to overlook the stuntcasting problem and give him a fair shot, but it wasn't long before he blew it. His constant humping of everyone was bizarre and distasteful, and his nasty talk was over the top even for fans of raunchy. This guy made narcissists seem humble, and he promoted every negative gay stereotype on a daily basis. Yes he won a lot of comps, but I don't give a damn.





Won: Football trip

She was the non-actormodel and longtime fan we always hope for, but many hated her anyway. I didn't mind her at all, despite her constantly saying this or that was 'the most disgusting thing/person on the planet' - many of us do the same. She laughed a lot, always a good thing, and she petted Cody too much. Her hubby Tim was one of the best relatives we've ever had, taking on haters like a superhero swatting away mosquitoes.





Won: 1 week frog, 1 week Germitard, revival

She was ingenuous without being cliche, refreshing and adorable, and she wore both costumes equally well. She was flattered & surprised to be a flirting target, and her game and/or guts were praised by Ian Terry, Dick Donato, Andy Herren, and Dan Gheesling, which is pretty high praise. Despite some very stiff competition, Nicole is easily the winner of Deathrace 2014, and she'll be missed.





Won: $15,000
TEAM AMERICA

One of the most likable hamsters ever, complete with ongoing Lines of the Day contributions, a rare combo. He had a nasty side but didn't often let it show, so he got an angelic edit once they stopped painting him as a backwoods buffoon. He went to bed early and missed nearly all of the gaming, and he complained about nobody ever coming to talk to him. I missed most of his morning shows and he lost me when he refused a TAFY task, but he was still the one to watch, at least when Zach was asleep, and he'd be fun to hang out with.





Won: Germany trip
A kooky combo of erratic, volatile, and endearing, he was unique in every way. He slept much of the time but when he was awake he was as unpredictable as they get, a rare and valuable hamster quality. He'll be remembered for his Victoria's ever-present pink hat, cuddling with Frankie, for being the TAFY 'escape goat', and most of all for playing a pretty crappy game yet ending up a huge fan favorite anyway.





Won: $5,000
He was the nice guy they all liked, and it's always rough to lose that guy early. Slightly immature with no shame, he was extremely good-natured and responsible for most of the just-for-fun activities and spontaneous silliness. He was cute with Nicole and a perfect combo of Jackass and hamster. He brought a lightness to the feeds that was missed when he left.





Won: Nothing
She didn't bring the holy wars I feared but she did speak in tongues. She cried a lot but she also laughed a lot, and she did great Diaries. She'll be remembered for her bow ties, her choir robe/portable changing room, and most of all her judgemental, IDGAF, side-eye, and the hell you say expressions.





Won: Nothing
A stunningly gorgeous model, she lasted longer than the hamster in that slot usually does, but she exited on another unanimous vote, and before jury. She wanted to play a clean game and that usually doesn't work out so well on this show. She was a good sport about pranks, including the antiquing shown here, but she'll mostly be remembered as the object of Caleb's dreams, and I do mean dreams.





Won: 2400 goals
She was the rawest recruit we've had in awhile and she didn't do much homework, which worked against her in a big way. She seemed to have pretty good game instincts and may have done some real damage if she'd been better prepared. She'll be remembered for her high bun as well as the few times her hair escaped it and landed her in Deathrace 2014 hall of fame, and for sticking with and completing that brutal soccer task when she didn't have to.





Won: Nothing
He has a daughter.

PS He easily wins the Best Evictee Award with this.





Won: Nothing
I kept hoping for the spitfire she plays on Twitter & Instagram to show up but it didn't until the veto meeting blowup. She was well on her way to being a perma-pawn but she stressed about not being able to win comps, and then Devin happened and out she went. She had a lot of entertainment potential and while we were robbed of most of it by her early exit, we'll always have CALTORU.





TEAM AMERICA FAIL
Won: Nothing
She blew up her game prematurely and spectacularly, and then her alter ego Alex and his 'big ass balls' sealed the deal. Supposedly she beat someone with 500k Twitter followers (plus 15 million backup) in a public vote, but that went splat just like BB12's saboteur Annie. Joey was lively and personable, a worthy member of the first out club, and she easily leads the pack of hamsters with unnatural hair colors.
