Okay, we’ve already given you guys an Amazing Race 16 spoiler by telling you that Big Brother couple Jordan Lloyd and Jeff Schroeder were spotted wearing backpacks and looking like they were on a mission in a foreign airport. But there is plenty more information out there on the internet for those who just want their whole Amazing Race viewing experience tainted with leaked information.
However, I am not going to post that information here. I am going to point you to a website that will tell you where the race concludes, the itinerary and the identities of some of the competing couples.
Check Steven Fife’s article out here. But don’t blame me if watching the season is just a little less fun.
BB9’s Amanda Hasen Has Taken Up Oil Wrestling – Video

Often after a season of our favorite reality show ends we wonder what the members of the cast are up to. Then there are times where we pretty much forget everyone in a season, like the Big Brother 9’s cast. It’s not that they were bad; it’s that the timing for the season was off. I mean seriously; Big Brother in winter? That just had fail written all over it, but I digress.
Season nine did have some interesting cast members. Sheila’s meltdown towards the end of the season was awesome. Crazy James was over all entertaining. Adam was cool, and Amanda was nice to look at it, even if she was annoying at times. Lucky for us in this clip below we don’t have to hear her talk. I’m not sure WHY she’s doing this, but let’s assume its for some sort of charity.
I mean really, reality stars don’t just do outrageous stunts to try and stay in the limelight….Right?
Big Brother Winner Adam “Balla” Jasinski Busted for Drug Dealing

Some people worry about blowing that big $500,000 payload that they get from winning the reality show Big Brother on something stupid, so they invest it. Or they buy a business, or start a business or non-profit. Or, like an idiot, they use it to fund their drug dealing. Big Brother 9 winner Adam Jasinski was arrested in Boston for possession of oxycodone pills with the intent to sell.
Police say that he was in possession of almost 2,000 pills when he caught a plane from the airport at his home in Florida, headed to Logan airport. He then met a man who had previously been arrested for dealing drugs at the airport and they then drove to a strip mall to complete the transaction. It was there that he was arrested by the DEA.
Mr. Jasinski said that he had been using the money he won on Big Brother to fund his drug dealership, and had been selling up and down the East Coast. He was arrested in 2004 for possession of 20 pounds of marijuana. Check out this video from MyFoxBoston to see footage of his most recent arrest:

Of course we at RealityRollCall.com love Big Brother, and we know that Shannon Elizabeth loves the show too, but who knew Bonnie Hunt liked it? Not me. I guess that means I just don’t have my finger on the pulse of celebrity Big Brother infatuation like I thought. Bonnie’s a huge fan of the show, and an even bigger fan of this season’s Coup d’etat winner Jeff Schroeder, and because of that she has invited him to be a guest on her show this Friday, September 18th 2009.
Also appearing on Friday’s show will be Dennis Quaid promoting his new movie “Pandorum”, Miranda Crosgrove (of iCarly fame) promoting her upcoming film “Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs” based on the popular children’s book of the same name.

Can Big Brother 11 Save Itself From the Impending Crash and Burn?

Big Brother 11 Heads Towards the Worst Ending Ever
We are at the point in the Big Brother season where I usually write my “Player’s Fatal Mistakes” piece. You know, the one where I review each house guest that’s been evicted to date and tell you where I think they sealed their fate. I’m not doing that this year.
One of reasons there will be no “Player’s Fatal Mistakes” is because the set up of the game in the early part of this season excluded certain people from eviction for the week. If a member of your clique won Head of Household, you were safe as well. It worked well when it saved people from being evicted for personal reasons instead of game play. It worked poorly when it saved underhanded game players from the fate they deserved.
But each Big Brother season is an experiment. Each season there is a theme that changes the rules of what is essentially a human chess game. CBS doesn’t know how the game will shake out in the end, or if the house guests will find a glitch in the game that can change it fundamentally (like the “six finger” plan made up by Nakomis in season 5, which later came to be known as “back dooring”). The entertainment factor of Big Brother is based on the fundamentals of all competition reality shows: rules + personalities = good ratings.
And up until last Thursday, the ratings for Big Brother have been greatly assisted by the personalities of some of the house guests this season. Despite whatever Ronnie thought about his game play, viewers saw that he was playing too hard too soon, and honestly couldn’t get far in the game because of his strategic errors and social handicap. He would have been evicted much sooner were it not for the protection of the clique. We couldn’t wait to see him get his.
Jessie’s power in the house was really an illusion. He automatically had a built in alliance because of his clique, and others who clung to him did so because he came in as Head of Household and a former player. He was still the arrogant meathead he was last season, and to make matters worse he showed the kind of man he was in his interactions with Lydia and Natalie. We watched to see if either of the women would wise up.
Chima’s brand of mean-spirited, man-hating, crazy added a big boost to the ratings. We knew it couldn’t last, but we hung in there to see how far her destructive personality would take her. And Lydia. The thing about Lydia’s personality in the game is that sometimes she was funny, and occasionally she had moments of clarity. Sometimes I wanted to pat her on head and say, “you poor thing; get some help.” And sometimes I wanted to throw a bucket of ice water on her and tell her to get a grip.
Everyone else, including Russell, was kind of a throwaway. Russell played hard, and was a great competitor. And I thought he was cute, cauliflower ears aside. But I really didn’t miss him when he left. And I knew I wouldn’t miss Michelle, but she played a good game.
I could say how much I enjoyed Jeff and Jordan as a showmance, and Jeff as game player and a hottie, but I would be saying what most people are saying out there. Let me just say this, because it has been driving me crazy for weeks: TECHNOTRONIC is a proper noun. Doesn’t anyone remember the song, “Pump Up the Jam”? The performers derived their name from the music genre known as “techno”.
But Russell screamed and screamed about technotronic not being a word. And sadly, in America these days the rule is that if you scream loud and long enough about something, it must be true.
But I digress. The bottom line is that once Jeff was voted out, America knew the face of the game was going to be ugly. I don’t know what the ratings were for Big Brother last night, but I could only bear to watch ten minutes of the show. We knew Michelle was going to get the boot, and Jordan can’t really hold her own.
Which leaves us with the possibility of a final two that actually make Maggie and Ivette of season 6 look popular. Evel Dick of Big Brother 8 sums the situation up in words that mirror my sentiment:
“The final three is so f***ing horrible this year that they are going to have a triple eviction and tell them all to kill themselves…”
It might boost ratings.
Big Brother Week 9 – Jeff Gets Got!

Well, this season of Big Brother just went down the tubes. Not only did Jeff get evicted tonight, Natalie just won HoH. Then, to top it all off, she brought up Chima and said it was for her. I think it’s pretty obvious that the nominees this week will be Jordan and Michele. Not that it matters. The real power this week lies in the hands of the Veto winner, which I hope and pray is either Michele or Jordan. But with the way things went tonight I have a good feeling that Kevin will win the veto and evict Michele and Jordan will be left to fend for herself against both Natalie and Kevin.
That’s pretty much all I have to say about this week. It was nice seeing the standing ovation that Jeff got, and how Julie seemed genuinely happy to meet him. I guess he’ll walk into the Jury House tomorrow and have Lydia scream out “Karma is a bitch!” which should leave her to only be disappointed by Jeff’s response when he just laughs it off.
I never got that whole “Karma is a bitch” thing people say in the BB house. It perplexes me because it’s usually said to somebody who played the game pretty much straight up and didn’t screw over the person who’s attacking them with the phrase. I guess it just goes back to that house makes people crazy, turning logic and sanity into words that lose all meaning after week 4.
Big Brother 11 Week 8 Spoiler: Is it the End of the Game for Jeff?
August 30, 2009 by Faith Whitfield

A lot has happened since Thursday’s episode of Big Brother 11 that ended in the early stages of a Head of Household Challenge. Kevin, who has come in second in many challenges this season, won this particular challenge and is now HoH. First thing on his agenda: getting rid of Jeff.
His nominations for eviction were Michelle and Jeff. This isn’t a surprise, since he spoke of getting rid of Jeff in the Diary Room and in conversations with Natalie. It’s a smart move for anyone left in the house. Jeff is a major player. Kevin, on the other hand, is not. I really don’t think this move is going to take him any closer to winning the game, because I don’t think there is anyone in the house who really thinks it would benefit them to take him to the end.
From one perspective, it looks like he floated his way to this point in the game, but did he really? All he really did was not get caught up in any of the drama in the house. He was quiet when he needed to be, and was friendly to everyone in the house, even the obviously homophobic Jessie. A man with no enemies is not someone you want beside you in the final two, especially in the season of Big Brother.
Jeff’s only hope at avoiding eviction was the Veto Competition. This week the competition was the “scrambled faces” game. Michelle won. The funny thing is that last week Jeff and Jordan watched Michelle staring at the Memory Wall, and it sparked the argument in which Jeff begged Jordan to start studying for those types of contests, and Jordan seemed to not get the significance. I think she gets it now.
Of course, Michelle will pull herself off the block, and Kevin intends to replace her with Jordan. Jordan, who is not at all happy with the way things are going, has told Jeff that if she goes on the block, she will quit the game, thereby sparing him elimination for the week. Jeff is telling her not to do it. Last time I checked, he is trying to work out a deal with Natalie, to take her to the final two if she can convince the house not to evict him.
Things look bad for Jeff, and it looks like he will be saying hello to Russell in the Jury House very soon. But if things go as I suspect, so will Kevin.
Big Brother Week 7 – Bye Bye Lydia, Jeff Wins HoH

Tonight was a busy night on Big Brother 11. With Chima and Jessie gone from the house, the alliance that dominated the house for the last four weeks was decimated. The remaining three players of Natalie, Kevin and Lydia were desperate to stop the bleeding, hopefully by winning The Power of Veto and having either Kevin or Lydia taken off the block. Once they were off the block, the plan was to get Russell on the block and have his teammates back door him.
The problem was getting his alliance to see him as a threat and want him gone. In the television version, of Big Brother, Russell looked like he turned his back on Jeff by making a side deal with Michelle to go to the final two. In actuality, he has made deals with both Jeff and Michelle, but he is not “screwing anyone over” in his alliance at this point.
In the TV version, Kevin approaches Jeff and tells him that he wants to be down with him and shows how honorable he is by telling him that Russell is making all kinds of deals behind his back. This is the lie that is supposed to put the chink in the armor of the alliance. On TV it looks like Jeff has taken the bait.
In real life, Kevin’s plan worked only for a short time. The alliance all got together and figured out that Kevin was lying. Russell came clean about what he said to Michelle, and the issue was squashed. However, they didn’t let on to Kevin that they knew he was lying (hence, his conferencing with them before the veto ceremony, and his not knowing who to vote out when the they took no one off the block).
We are now waiting for the results of the HoH competition. Keep checking back to find out more.
Update: Jeff has won Head of Household.
