Big Brother 11: Is Jessie the New Cappy?

Say “Hello” to the new Nerd Herd

Jessie Godderz has been gone from the Big Brother house for more than a few hours now, and it seems that some people have gone off the deep end. As of this writing, Chima, Lydia and Natalie are all in the kitchen crying because Jessie was evicted tonight. Yes, crying. And ruining perfectly good Chinese food. I can understand Lydia crying because she was secretly hooking up with him for a month and a half, and Natalie is crying because she had to had to get her lips removed from his butt before he could leave the house, but I am not so sure why Chima is crying, unless it’s out of frustration that all her machinations were destroyed by Jeff and the Coup d’etat.

Did I miss something? Do they put you in front of a firing squad, instead of sending you to the Jury House this season?

The only topic of conversation for these three tonight is Jessie. Sure, Chima launches into an occasional venomous Russell tirade, but that’s a conversation that no one is really chiming in on. The three expressed their displeasure at the outcome of eviction by pouring Nerds into Jeff baseball cap, and dumping Russell’s stuff  on the floor. The only time there has been this kind of insanity over one person leaving was when the Nerd Herd couldn’t get over Cappy leaving  Big Brother 6 in week two.  Does that mean that Chima, Natalie and Lydia are the new “Friendship”? I don’t know, but if they start talking about how they are “good people,” we should all start to worry.

And, if Jessie is the new Cappy, is Jeff the new Kaysar?

The Top Ten Things People Who Watch Big Brother 11 on TV Need to Know

Most people know that there are three types of Big Brother viewing experiences: watching the show on CBS,  watching  Big Brother After Dark on Showtime, and watching the live feeds. The broadcast show that airs on television three times a week tells a small fraction of the story. Here are the top 10 things network viewers need to know about Big Brother so far:

1. Braden,  was called a racist in Chima’s voting speech  because he got into an argument with Kevin, and called him a “beaner,” which is a derogatory term for a Mexican. This led to a blowout, and later, when explaining his foul choice of words, Braden said that he was defending himself when Kevin “got all gay hands” on him during the argument.

The irony is that Braeden’s acting resume mainly consists of  nude scenes in gay movies and television.

2. Ronnie thinks that Hitler is one of the greatest public speakers ever, and although he claims to love Hinduism he can’t stand people from India. He also confessed to being a cyber bully.

3. The strained relationship between Russell and Chima began when Russell decided that he didn’t like Chima romantically after it seemed that things may have been headed in that direction. Hell hath no fury like Chima scorned.

4. Chima repeatedly calls Russell a terrorist because his family is from Lebanon. She does it so often that production often interrupts the lives feeds, and contributes to the unpleasant experience of watching her live.

5. Chima has been trying for a couple of weeks to provoke Russell to hit her, and has mentioned this on more than one occasion to other house guests.  It’s a bit twisted that a woman who is a victim of violent crime is deliberately trying to get a man to attack her.

6. The Jessie/Natalie/Lydia triangle is more scandalous than played out on television. Although Natalie does keep Jessie on a tight leash (which is odd because she has a boyfriend), he has managed to have a lot of intimate encounters with Lydia, after all the other house guests have fallen asleep. Some of these encounters have actually required the use of a condom.

7. Lydia, is actually treated poorly most of the time by Jessie. He has actually brought her to tears while repeatedly punching her during “roughhousing”, and their relationship has driven her to cutting herself on at least one occasion.

8. Jessie has actually hit Natalie so hard on the thigh during “horseplay” that he left a mark on her. He has not apologized for either incident.

9. Jessie has not engaged in “horseplay” with the men in the house.

10. Jeff and Jordan have not done anything other than kissing, despite being the “couple” in the house.

Big Brother 11 Week 4 Live Eviction – Ronnie Gets Owned

Let me start by saying Jeff winning the Coup D’etat is pure awesomeness. I always find it funny when people in the BB house have a mystery power and Julie mentions it, and everyone just looks around normally while the person who has the power does their best to look around casually and as a result they look the most suspicious. It’s almost as awkward as yelling out that you don’t have the power.

Now is it me, or are the non-cliche hateful final words just before eviction  votes are cast  becoming more cliche in the fact that they’ll certainly be hateful? Doesn’t anyone want to leave with dignity any more? Has being a gracious loser suddenly gone out of style? They claim to enjoy the game then take elementary shots at each other while voting, leaving or even in their goodbye messages. Come on house guests, let’s get back to game play and accept when you’ve been outplayed. Sure, being angry about being lied to during the game is cool, but I see evicition as a “timeout.” Yeah, you make a decision that affects the game, but you don’t need to air your dirty laundry since by that time everyone’s choices have been made.

Tonight Ronnie was evicted from the house in a 3-4 vote. It felt like he’d been avoiding eviction for weeks, but in reality it was only one week (not counting week 2 since he had HoH). There was just something about the way that he played the game that I just didn’t like at all. I may have been how he talked down to people that he felt he was smarter than, or it could have been how he had a bad habit of bringing up fights and interactions from previous seasons and getting the details wrong. Whatever the reason may be,  I’m just glad he’s gone. That brings me to my next topic: HoH.

Congratulations, Chima. You are safe from eviction this week, and that’s it. Your nominations won’t mean a thing as long as Jeff keeps his mouth shut about the Coup D’etat. I look forward to what I suspect will be a weekend filled with burned bridges and bad blood. Topped off with a shocked look as either Jessie or Natalie are evicted next Thursday.

Big Brother 11 Week 4 HoH Winner Spoilers

Gallons of water spilled, countless encounters with an over sized diploma, eight fallen house guests, and three and a half hours later and Russell comes up victorious. Below I note key events in the competition.

One hour and 30 minutes in Jordan suddenly dropped.

Two hours and 20 minutes in Chima who earlier in the competition some how did a back flip dropped to the ground.

Two hours and 42 minutes in Michelle finally drops leaving only the two boys, Jeff and Russell.

Two hours and 51 minutes in Russell announces that he’s going to pee himself, and then he does.

Three hours and eleven minutes in and negotiations between Jeff and Russell break down when neither of them will drop. Russell’s reason was because he wanted a letter from his dad, and Jeff’s reason was because it was just him and Jordan and even though he trusted Russell he couldn’t be certain that he wouldn’t waiver once Jessie got in his ear.

Three hours and 25 minutes in Jeff finally decides to drop after confirming numerous times that Russell wouldn’t nominate him or Jordan this week.

As one of the first 5 people to drop out of the HOH competition, Jordan got the task of picking the three have nots for the week. In an attempt to be fair to everyone in the house she put the names in a graduation cap and pulled them out in front of the house. She decided to leave out the former Brains because she didn’t think it would be fair for them to be “Have Nots” two weeks in a row. The first name she pulled from the hat was Russell’s but since he won HoH the house decided that Russell’s name would represent Natalie so she was the first have not. The second name pulled was Kevin. The final name pulled from the hat was Jeff, but everyone decided that being on the HOH apparatus for 3 and a half hours got him a pass, so Jordan had to pick again. The next name she picked was Jessie, who had a mini blow up, that resulted in a game of  “Guess The Number.” Jordan picked a number between 1-20 and told it to Chima and Lydia and Jessie had to pick a number and the person who was off by the most would be the 3rd “Have Not” of the week.

Lydia chose 13 and Jessie picked 12. It turns out that the number Jordan said was 15 so Jessie still ended up a “Have Not” for the week. Right after the game Jessie stormed off towards the bath room, prompting Lydia to call him a sore loser and say she’d be a have not if he was going to be a baby about it. Jessie eventually said he’d be a “Have Not” and he rushed off only because he was angry that he lost twice, but he had no problem being a have not.

Big Brother 11 Endurance HoH Comp Update

It’s an hour and five minutes into the competition and already two of my three choices have been eliminated. Since the feeds were going in and out it was hard to keep track of exactly what time each person fell, but I’m pretty sure I have the order right.

Kevin was first to fall, we got to see him laying on his back when the feeds came on for about 45 seconds.

Ronnie was the seconds to fall. I didn’t get to see how he fell but I saw him sitting on the sidelines. At that same time there was a lot of dry heaving from the remaining house guest namely Michelle and Natalie. Then the feeds went black.

When the came back on both Natalie and Lydia were sitting on the sideline next to each other shivering while Ronnie went on about still feeling like he wanted to hurl. Everyone else is busy hanging on for dear life in the rain while they continue to get whacked by their diploma.

Big Brother 11 Week 2 Nomination Spoilers

I’ll admit that I didnt watch the feed for while after Ronnie won HoH because I”m a sore loser, and things didn’t go the way I wanted with the eviction or the HoH. But I have a job to do, so I had to see how Ronnie was explaining his vote. It turns out he wasn’t. He was putting the blame on Michelle.

Initially he tried to blame Casey, but people weren’t really buying it, so he decided to place the blame on Michelle. This flimsy story was widely accepted as the truth, for a while at least.

As expected, Ronnie put Jeff up on the block and coupled him with Laura. From the talk around the house, Laura is the real target and Jeff is there only as pawn. Both Jessie and Natalie approached Jeff and told him that he had their votes. They were soon followed by Lydia and Russell, so I do think that he might actually be the pawn. Ronnie even went as far as to tell him to make sure he won veto, because he doesn’t want him to go home. Sure,Ronnie told Laura the same thing, but if you take into account what everyone else says it looks like Jeff is in the clear, unless he does something stupid to piss everyone off.

While I’m typing this the veto competition has gone underway. So when it wraps up and the veto is used I’ll let you guys know.

Big Brother 11 Week 1 Live Eviction Recap

Good-bye Braden. I think it’s the first time that a week one vote has come down to a tie. It definitely proved that the house was split down the middle, and that Ronnie is 50% liar. It’s going to be interesting to see where Ronnie officially aligns himself this week, because there’s no running back and forth once you nominate a side. You officially make enemies, and no amount of championship debating skills is going to be able to get you out of your decision. On second thought, this is the Big Brother house, so anything is possible.

As it stands right now I see Ronnie putting up Jeff and Casey. That way he keeps favor with the Athletes(mainly Russell) who he’s obviously intimidated by, and nominates Casey, whose attitude can be used to justify why he’s going up.

FEED UPDATE: When the feeds came back on we were greeted with a spat between Chima and Michelle(again) about how Michelle lied about voting to keep her. It was a very short argument though because lets be honest, there’s really nothing to say.

Also, Ronnie is telling Jordan and Laura the he voted to evict Chima, kicking off the operation set-up Casey. That group already doubted Casey’s allegiance, and with a little nudge from Ronnie they can be made to want him gone.

Jessie also thinks that Julie rigged the HoH competition for the Athletes to lose. I wouldn’t go as far as to say it was “rigged”, but it was very unfair. The house guests eventually got to the point where they were buzzing in right before Julie would finish her sentence. That way they’d have control of the board and they could hear Julies last words which were usually the key words that would give you the answer to the question.

That’s all for now I’ll be back with the nomination spoilers later in the week. Make sure to check out the twitter feed to the right where I’ll update any big fight information.

Big Brother 10 Players Fatal Mistakes Part 1

As we reach the end of another wild season of Big Brother, it’s time for me to take on the role of Monday morning quarterback and tell you  where I think each player blew their chance at a half a million dollars. It’s time for Player’s Fatal Mistakes.

Now, I know that I haven’t been a fan of Dan’s game play, and I am really struggling to see anything Memphis had done this season in the way of active strategizing (making deals with everyone doesn’t require much thought). But at the end of the game,  you have to admit that at least one of the two people played the game well. So, I give Dan all due respect. I think the biggest issue that I have from an entertainment standpoint, was that The Renegades weren’t as cool or as awesome as their name would lead you to believe.  Let’s move on:

Brian: Usually the first person to go is kind of a sacrificial lamb: no one knows anyone yet, but someone has to go. This isn’t the case with Brian. Brian seemed poised to be the actual star of the season, and teamed up with Dan, he would have actually made The Renegades and team to remember. Brian had charisma and was charming, in a salesman kind of way, with the potential to be persuasive, and he had the spark in his diary room sessions that you usually only see in good players. His mistake? He played too hard, too fast. He made a deal with everyone in the house. How smart is it to make a deal with everyone, when you don’t have a feel for anyone’s personality yet? Would have liked to see him make to All Stars, but it’s unlikely since he shot himself in the foot strategically as soon as he set foot in the house.

Angie: She was the exact opposite of Brian, in that she was way too laid back, especially when it came time to save herself. Her argument when saying a few last words to save herself before voting was excellent. Saying that in the end there could only be one winner of Big Brother, and that each player had to actually play the game for themselves when they cast their vote was great. The problem was that the time to say it was when she should have been campaigning to stay, not right before she was ready to go. She didn’t give anyone a reason to keep her around, but she gave a speech that was so good that other houseguests used it as well, also at the wrong time.

Steven: He was a nice guy, and everyone liked him. His problem was that he befriended Brian, which made him look bad, and he hung out with Angie. The time to hang out with folks, is not when their demise is imminent. It kind of makes you a loser by association.

Jessie: Jessie was a guy who could have stayed in the game a lot longer. His mistake was that he didn’t know when to shut up. His weird view of “respect” and his youthful arrogance made him a victim of his own ego, and the America’s Player vote.

Libra: A victim of the revenge eviction for putting Jessie on the block for purely personal reasons, she also had the fatal flaw of not knowing when to keep her mouth shut. She actually was one of the first people to actually demonstratively play the game, but she was aligned with people who brought their personal issues into game play, which enhanced out the abrasiveness of her personality.

April: There was a lot wrong with April’s game, aside from the fact that she spent way too much time making YouTube sex tapes with Ollie. She thought of herself as being a great player and a threat, because she won the endurance competition. Put in its proper perspective, that competition was, in fact, the easiest for her to win. Furthermore, winning a couple of comps doesn’t make you a great player; there are more factors involved than that. Her tendency to polarize her every view in the game, and to isolate herself, made her seem like she wasn’t exactly a team player much of the time.

Part 2 of Players Fatal Mistakes will be up on Tuesday. In the meantime, I’d like to know you opinions, so leave a comment.
