Reality Roll Call

The season starts like any season of Big Brother, with the house guests lined up silently in front of the Big Brother house. Then, not five minutes into show, Julie says the house guests are going to choose the HoH before they even enter the house. Immediately, I,  like the majority of viewers thought that Jerry

would make the best HoH at this point in the game. For one he’s old and…well, he’s  old and thereby not a threat.

Once the house guests started filing into the house, they quickly began to realize that Renny is crazy. But not in that wacky, do anything, Crazy James way; she’s crazy in that “Natalie please stop talking”, kind of way. After all of the greetings and pleasantries were exchanged, the house guests headed outside for their first food/luxury competition.

Outside in the backyard there were two VW Beetles hanging upside, down connected to two tracks. The house guests had to split up into two teams, while one person sat out in order for the teams to be even. Jessie the “100% natural body” chose to sit out in an attempt to make people think he wasn’t a threat, ya know, because he’s soooo huge and intimidating.

Every player on both teams had to  climb into their respective upside down cars, and pull themselves from one end of the track to retrieve a gas container. Then they had pull themselves all the way back to the starting point to let one person out with the gas container. They’d repeat that process until the last person in the car crossed the finish line with the gas container. The winning team got to eat food for the week, and the losing team got put on slop. The twist to the whole competition is that the last person in the car from the winning team would win one of two classic muscle cars(either ‘69′ Camaro or a ‘66 Mustang). After a quick game of rock, paper, scissors between Steven and Memphis, its decided that Memphis would be the last one in the car. About thirty seconds after that Memphis crossed the finish line giving the red team the victory,  winning himself a Camaro and giving everyone a valid reason for evicting him later in the game.

Once everyone got back in the house, Julie announced that Jerry had been chosen as the first HoH this season. Even though he only got 4 votes everyone seemed genuinely happy to see him win it. When the house guests finally got some time to soak in what just happened, Dan decided it was time build an alliance. He went to work on both Ollie and Brian recruiting them into his alliance. At first glance it seems like Dan is the leader, but if you look a little closer Brian is the one in charge. When all is said and done, Brian will play Dan and Ollie right out of the house if they let his influence grow  too much.

With that said, Brian has already worked his magic on Jerry by  getting him to nominate Renny and the super intimidating, 100% natural body building, non threat, reality show vet Jessie for eviction. Jerry said that both of them would self destruct and he is absolutely correct. Jessie’s desire to play down his size and keep a low profile might lead to him isolating himself, which could get him sent home. If he’s smart he’ll just buddy up to the guys and let Renny annoy her way out of the house. She comes on pretty strong, and I’m sure being around her 24/7 isn’t easy, and people may just vote her out because they are just tired of dealing with her.

If both nominees take cues from each other they’d have their best chance to stay in the house. Jessie just needs to pep up and Renny needs to turn it down a notch, and they’ll make the choice for the house guest a lot harder.

As usual I’ll keep you all posted if anything happens on the live feeds so check back often.
