Big Brother 11 Blog

I love the Big Brother finale. I love the jury segments. I love the drama of the voting and the way everyone talks. I love seeing familiar faces in the crowd…alumni from Big Brother past seasons.

By far my favorite part is when they clue everyone into some of the moves that were made and the things that people did not know about…let me give you an example.

I loved it when Michelle learned about “America’s Player”. I thought it was priceless watching her facial expressions. The shock and the “I KNEW IT” look in her eyes said it all.

The other part I loved was the way we got to understand Dan’s moves and strategy. Let me tell you…he was one amazing player (not quite Dr. Will…but close!) When he was connected with Brian and Brian was out right away….he was able to fade into the background by convincing everyone he was not a threat and just let the group of 8 go after who they believed to be more of a threat and then when the 8 split and went after each other, Dan was off the radar. (Worked out so amazingly well for him) Then, when he needed to, he aligned with Memphis and the Renegades were born!

Dan and Memphis went to work. This was a very smart move since he was able to win when he could and if not, have someone who had his back when he didn’t win a HoH or Veto. VERY SMART!

Lastly, I think he was one of the smartest when it comes to forward planning. The fact that he purposely tried to mess with his relationship with Michelle and Ollie with the thought that if he was in the final 2 he would be more liked…simply amazing planning (and maybe a tad cocky) but all worked out. Everyone agreed that Dan was the Man. Jury vote was 7 - 0. Nothing against Memphis….just Dan played the game and really did Dominate.

So what do you think? Was Dan a deserving winner? Should Memphis have won? Let the world know by commenting below!

Renny finds herself in a bad situation. Between a rock and a hard place. Since Memphis took Dan off the block, Renny was the only choice left and was put up to replace Dan.

Not only that, the only 2 people voting for either Keesha or Renny are Memphis and Dan and unless it is a tie vote…I am not sure how Renny can get out of this and make it to the games final 4.

Keesha seems to be sitting ok even though you are never safe when you are on the block. Could this be Dan and Memphis’ shot to get her out? Personally I do not think so….but you never know what might happen.

So who is your final 4, who do you see leaving and who is playing the best in the BB10 house this year?

How do you see the live eviction show going down tonight? 2-0 for Renny to leave? 2-0 for Keesha to leave? 1-1 Tie with Jerry having to evict someone?

The floor is now yours. The Big Brother blog diary room is now open for your comments. Cast your vote to evict and tell us who your final 4 will be.

Peace, BBBlogger

….and then there were 5!

So Michelle was eliminated, which according to the poll on Big Brother Blog, everyone is very ok with her leaving over Jerry.

Next was a new HoH competition…my favorite part was the first tie breaker when both Keesha and Jerry guessed 100 lollipops! Too funny. I loved it when the live audience “gasped” when they saw it was a tie. Then Keesha was able to get the win with a larger number of seconds than Jerry for a question asking the total seconds of 3 legs of a race from an earlier competition.

Keesha turned around and nominated Ollie and Jerry.

POV was won by Dan and since Dan and Keesha have been working together as of late…Dan left the nominations alone!

So….with that, Ollie was eliminated 3-0. Ollie is now reunited with April (and it feels so good?) in the jury house.

Some commentors said it was exactly how they saw it going down, others were sad that Ollie is now out. Bottom line….5 people left and I honestly think it is anyone’s game (even Jerry!)

But it does not really matter what I think….what do YOU THINK? Please comment below!

PS: ****SPOILER****READ AT OWN RISK****

From watching the Live Feeds, it looks like Jerry has won HoH this week and is guaranteed to be in the Final Four house guests! The game is going to end strong….who is going to win….who is going home next week.

Jerry vs. Michelle…one of these 2 will be leaving the Big Brother 10 house tonight?

Is the plan to keep Jerry in the house since he is annoying but not much of a threat (are they underestimating him) or is it time to get him out?

Then there is Michelle….is she more of a threat or is it simply her time to leave?

I am undecided going into tonight’s live show and Double Eviction night.

So what do you think….who do YOU want out….cast your vote to evict now!

Also….tell us how you see tonight’s 2nd eviction going down. It should be a great show tonight!

Hi Everyone!

Once again, I’m your guest blogger, while BBBlogger works on opening up the Blog’s diary room later today.

Tuesday night’s show featured America’s Choice–which houseguest should receive a telephone call from home? I think America made the right choice in choosing Jerry. As we all know, Jerry’s wife Joanne has Parkinson’s disease. I’m sure it was very reassuring for him to speak to her and know how she is doing. I must admit that seeing this part of Jerry made me feel “something” for him, but alas, only for a few moments. While checking out videos this morning, I heard him call Keesha a c*** and that changed my opinion back! I’m not saying that Keesha is or isn’t, I just think he should act his age and not speak like that. I’m old fashioned I guess! Jerry asked his wife Joanne about what she thought of his behavior in the house and she replied, “Well…” I would be so embarrassed if he were my husband.

The POV competition involved puzzle solving along with some physical strength. The contestants had to pull themselves across “space” on a wire carrying a puzzle piece and put the puzzle together. There were two preliminary heats. The winner of each heat played each other in a final heat. The first group to compete was Dan, Keesha and Michelle. Dan, once again, threw the competition. He wanted Keesha to win so he could continue to keep his hands clean. The second heat consisted of Memphis, Renny and Jerry. This was no contest. Memphis’ physical strength zipped him right across and in to the final heat. I don’t know for sure, but I think Keesha let Memphis win so that he could take himself off the block and the group could backdoor Michelle.

So knowing that Memphis would use the POV to save himself, crazy Dan comes up with an idea to play a game at the POV ceremony. He had each houseguest name their own replacement. But, he had this all staged so that each houseguest said a different name. Ollie said Renny. Renny said Ollie. Michelle said Keesha. Keesha said Michelle. At the end of this, he placed Michelle up on the block. I think it was all a bit silly if you ask me. I know his idea was to take the heat off of himself, but I think he actually made himself more of a target—especially with Renny.

At this point, I was eagerly waiting to see how CBS was going to handle Ollie’s outburst. They showed a quick clip of him throwing a lollipop and tipping over the fridge and then the show ended. If you read under yesterday’s comments, Natvtxn has an update from CBS saying to wait until Thursday to see what happens. I guess we have to, don’t we?

CBS is including America in Thursday’s upcoming HOH competition. On the website, are a number of possible future headlines. We get to vote on which houseguest we think the headline would refer to. For example, which houseguest would win the Nobel Peace Prize? One of those houseguests?—the Nobel Peace Prize?—are you serious? But anyway, that’s the idea. I assume this means that the houseguests will have to guess our answers. This puts everyone on a pretty equal footing because all they can do is guess. HOH is definitely up for grabs!

Have a great Wednesday…love bbgal08

Hi Everyone!

Unless you’ve spent the last 24 hours on a deserted island, you know what’s been going on in the Big Brother 10 house. But to keep our blog website nice and neat, I’ll summarize. Caution…this blog contains spoilers.

The POV ceremony was held yesterday afternoon. Memphis, of course, took himself off the block. Dan, with a flair for the dramatic, asked each houseguest who they would put up in his place. Since he had spoken to each houseguest prior to the ceremony, he knew what they would say. When all was said and done, he nominated Michelle. Dan said he wanted to make it interesting by asking each HG, but personally I think he was trying to get the heat off of himself.

As you can imagine, all hell broke loose after the ceremony. If you haven’t seen the videos of the aftermath, click on the link to our sister-site Big Brother Videos.

Both Ollie and Michelle flipped out, but each in their own way. Michelle went in to the storage room and was ranting and raving that BB production was staging everything. Ollie became violent. To get a good perspective of this, check out the comment section of yesterday’s blog. Y’all have a LOT to say on the subject!

Last night was pretty quiet. Nothing much going on. The houseguests shown on BBAD were all pretty mellow and seemed tired. Keesha and Renny spent part of the evening discussing scenarios of the final four. I kept talking to the TV screen. “HOH on Thursday people! Spend your down time studying! Start reviewing what’s happened so far in the house! Memorize, people, memorize!” My prediction is that the next HOH competition will involve memories of prior happenings in the BB10 house. Who was nominated first? Who was evicted second? Etc… But then again, what do I know?

I have caught conversations between the houseguests planning who should be the next one evicted (after Michelle). Having played this out in their minds will definitely help them when they are surprised on Thursday with the double eviction.

This season seems to be flying by! Kudos to CBS for bringing Big Brother back to life by getting rid of all the nonsense twists and turns. Also, thanks to BBBlogger for letting me guest blog. I’m having a lot of fun! Love bbgal08

As we found out with last nights show, Dan did not use the POV leaving Renny’s nominations of April and Jerry set for a Thursday night eviction.

April seems to be the internet and the house’s target to be evicted this week…but will Jerry be surprised and blind sided and voted out (like shocked and open-mouthed Dustin of BB8)

So as previously stated, who do you want out? Who is playing the best game so far? Who do you want to see get to the final 2 and how are they going to make it happen.

The diary room is once again open and I anxiously await your comments and insights into Big Brother 10! This is your blog….please share your thoughts with the world.

Peace, BBBlogger

PS: If you have not signed up for the live feeds you still have a great opportunity to do so. Basically, you get 2 weeks free and after that just $14.99 a month (or $12.99 with coupon below) With only a little more than a month left basically just one payment would get you through the end of the season and let me tell you….when they have their endurance competitions (and you know they are coming soon) you wont be able to look away from your computer screen! TRUST ME!

In a typical Jeopardy style, Renny buzzed in and said “Who is Brian?” and Julie said correct allowing Renny to win over Keesha and claim this weeks HoH competition. I think she forgot it was Big Brother 10 and not Double Jeopardy…but it made me laugh anyway.

Also the house, and the readers of Big Brother Blog all voted for Libra to be evicted…and that she was. It was time for her to go….she was quite the stinker…

So now the “crazy lady” from the start of the show, who has mellowed out as time has gone on in the Big Brother house, now holds the power. She has said before that she would put up Ollie and April. Is that what she will do? I guess we will know soon.

Who do you think she should target? Who do you want out next?

As of this very second, I do believe the nomination ceremony for this week is taking place. All the feeds are on bubbles.

We’re pretty sure Libra will get nominated, and HoH Michelle has made no bones about it. But who will go up against her: Keesha or Dan? Even though Libra and Keesha mused last night about their impending fate, there is also a big push by houseguests like Jerry to get Dan on the block.

A brief reset: Dan is not in the good graces of Jerry, April, Ollie and particularly Michelle for his deciding vote in last night’s eviction. Nevermind that he’s America’s Player.

The rest of the houseguests don’t know this. Well, they do, but they don’t if you get my drift. They watched BB8, and they suspect Dan is playing for America.

Why doesn’t somebody work him to get him to admit it, one on one? Dan seems like a fairly nice guy, but he’s definitely apt to spill the beans, more than Eric was.

Food comps have already happened, but I have to say: Those aren’t really doing much for me in terms of interest. During BB8, slop really affected Jen’s play from a mental perspective, but putting Jerry on slop for the umpteenth week doesn’t seem to do much.

Old men and their fiber, I guess.

Don’t laugh. Fiber is good, although in a house full of people, I’m not sure I’d be all that bearable after four weeks of the stuff. And, I am presuming that this concoction of oats and whatever has some dietary fiber and nutritional worth to it.

I could be wrong. Perhaps Jerry is dying a slow death out there.

Alas, I’ve seen your Top 3 rankings, and color me surprised. I hear where your coming from with Dan and Keesha. They’re likeable. Good people, it seems.

And, I like that some of you mentioned Renny, who I am pulling for. She’s good people, bottom line. I’d go party with her in New Orleans anytime.

However, I think one of the houseguests is heads and tails above the rest right here, right now. It could change in the bat of an eye, but given that we all acknowledge producers have manhandled BB10 a bit this summer, I suspect one houseguest has a big-time built-in advantage.

So, here goes with this week’s edition of BB10 rankings.

9. Libra. She’s enemy No. 1 of the house right now, overall, devoid of any one thing that she might have done. Plus, America doesn’t like her either, which means America’s vote will almost certainly go to oust her. I cannot imagine ANY way she wins this.

8. Ollie. Who will sell out whom first? I suspect April will win out in this battle between lovers, should that scenario arise. He’s much more interested in sex than in game-play.

7. Dan. Sorry, but being America’s Player is a downright danger for any houseguest. And our Catholic school teacher has quite the hill to climb if he hopes to survive even two more weeks.

6. April. All it takes is for Renny, Keesha or Libra to survive this week and win next, and our bubbly blonde is in danger.

5. Memphis. IMHO, too many people see him as a threat. He IS a threat, and he did a nice job of avoiding the fray after last night’s eviction, but his perceived abilities — real or not — spell doom.

4. Keesha. Nice girl. Annoying laugh. Now, I know some of you can’t stand her, but I’m speaking in relative terms. Competitively she can survive, but emotionally, she’s a wreck. It will make her appear to be weak, and that could be her game-play saving grace.

3. Renny. My Renny. If she survives to the Final 3, which I think can happen, here lies the problem. That Final 3 competition is likely to be a hardcore competition, and she is not somebody you want to take to the Final 2. Period. Her ability to survive the first couple of weeks here, in combination with her ability to make friends, would make her a likely candidate for eviction with three people left.

2. Michelle. She cusses up a storm. She’s volatile. She’s BB8’s Amber with a Rhode Island accent, but she’s a gamer, and right now she’s in control. Competitively, she’s strong, and in terms of mental manipulation, she’s game. Add to the mix a bit of insanity, and she can stick around for quite awhile, I think.

1. Jerry. Here’s the surprise. I think, and color me the cynic, but I think CBS would love, love, love for the 75-year-old to win this thing. Nevermind that Jerry has weathered weeks of slop and most of the confrontations. Sure, he’s been on the attack a couple of times, but he hasn’t been a subject of any major attacks.

To put this in military terms, given that he’s a Marine, Jerry has waged a good war so far, picking his battles and picking nothing that he can’t win. To me, if I could get in a houseguest’s ear, he’s exactly the player they should work to evict.

On the other hand, I think for Jerry to win would make for a nice story, and we wish his wife well in her battle with Parkinson’s. However, I suspect everybody — us included — are underestimating Jerry’s resilience and ability to manipulate without seeming like the bad guy.

In fact, the label of “old curmudgeon” fits him quite well. And, I think he is absolutely the player to beat right now.

It all could change on the flip of a dime, so watch out!

What do you think? Do you think I’ve been drinking today? If so, what? Have a great weekend, all!

Happy Sunday morning my fellow followers of the church o’ Big Brother.

The big news for today is twofold: The PoV has been claimed, and a rift could be brewing between our house couple, April and Ollie.

If you don’t want to know about the PoV, turn away now. Otherwise, forever keep your peace, or keep the peace or keep your piece or whatever the heck the saying is!

The PoV competition was held overnight from Friday into Saturday, and the old man finally has a win. Jerry is the holder of ye power of veto, and nobody is expecting him to use it to save Jessie or Memphis. I do wonder what type of competition was held though. No offense, but I expect it was more cerebral than physical, although I’d be pleasantly surprised if the marine kicked a little tail on the physical side of things.

After a night of tense fighting in the Big Brother house, Saturday night was a tad more laid back. April and Ollie are having heart-to-heart convos about the game after a girls confrontation of Ollie and Jessie. April acknowledges she has “feelings” for Ollie that go beyond the game.

Waa, waa, waa, waa.

Michelle in her red unitard, which she has to wear all week, is completely smitten with Jessie, but I suspect you already knew that. As of 2 a.m. BBT Sunday, they’re the only houseguests still up, although I’m hoping nothing gross happens.

Muscles, yuck!

On the America’s Player front, best I can tell, houseguests are catching on to Dan’s newly found status. However, he hasn’t exactly played it like Eric did last summer. Dan’s laying hints like Britney Spears does bodyguards, and his acting is transparent.

In fact, Dan might have completely blown his cover by the time you read this.

As of 2:30 a.m. BBT, it looks like Jessie and Memphis are headed for a showdown deluxe come Thursday. While I hope Jessie goes, I still think it’s the smarter play to oust Memphis. On the other hand, Big Brother has a way of keeping douchebags (hope I’ve offended nobody) around way longer than they should stay.

Save Memphis!
