Reality Roll Call

Tonight Libra was evicted from the Big Brother house, and as a result she has become the first member of the jury. When I saw that fight with her and Jessie last week, I knew she’d be going this week. Her big mouth ultimately led to her downfall. I’m not a fan of hers, but I will miss the funny looks she’d get on her face when certain things were said.

I’m now interested to see what kind of damage the newly formed Renegades(Memphis and Dan) can do in the house. But I’ll have to wait another week to see if they get power because Renny is the new HoH. Renny hasn’t had any really big blowouts with anyone in the house. We know she doesn’t see eye to eye with Jerry, so that gives us one potential  nomination, but the second one is a toss up. She could go the safe route, and nominate Michelle, but I’d like to see her make a strong play and nominate April. The real game of Big Brother starts because what Renny does this week will set the house up for a mad dash to the finish.

Deadwood
Michelle wins HOH this week. Absolutely incredible. The funny thing is her targets this week. April made an agreement to spare Jesse from the block when she and April were competing for HOH the previous week. April went back on her word, proving she cannot be trusted. Michelle, of all people, should have seen that red flag from the get go. Then again, she is the Deadwood this season, so perhaps she has not been playing this game all along, or without a brain. If you have the chance to take out the person on top wouldn’t you do that, versus getting out the henchmen?… who knows. Needless to say, her thoughts on stirring up the house and continuing to get in Keesha’s face will prove to hurt her in this house for sure in weeks to come.

I don’t even think i really needed to post this, but Libra and Keesha were nominated for eviction this week. Libra, the main antagonist and conspirator in the whole Jessie eviction, is Michelle’s main target. Keesha too, has done her fair share of arguing, but she is merely just caught in Michelle’s cross-hairs by mere association with Libra.

Today the luxury/food competition was played. The current house guests seem to have really gotten a kick out of the alumni showing up to help out with the competition. Although we weren’t able to see the competition on the live feeds, there was quiet a bit of talk about it when it was over. Apparently, the alumni cheered when Michelle went up for her turn in the comp, and in stark contrast fell dead silent when Libra took the stage. Since the comment was made by Michelle I’ll assume the alumni were probably more vocal when she took her turn and just clapped when Libra went up. I don’t think they’d blatantly show that they didn’t like somebody by not clapping at all.

Finally, the 100% natural body builder was evicted from the Big Brother house,and it was all thanks to America’s vote. I think this might have been the first time that America was the swing vote. I’m not sure if we were the swing vote on Dustin’s(BB8) eviction. As nice as it was to have an affect on the game again, I think its time to stop with this America’s player stuff. It’s the type of twist that’s only good once. The house was jokingly calling Dan America’s Player before he was officially America’s Player, so its time to officially put that to rest along with the red leotards.

After watching my friend Keesha’s HOH week, I have continued to see improvements in her gameplay. Her HOH nominations were a bold move on her part, but I agree with them hands down. She actually nominated the adversaries that aided in the destruction of Steven; a move not even Danielle from season 8 could do to save Nick from the chopping block. So, kudos to you Keesha, a very bold move. In addition, even after mass coercion she stuck to her guns, and did not use the POV– very nice. She may find out the hard way that Libra will back stab her in the end, but at least she has her as a friend for a few weeks to come.

The Meathead (Jesse)
Once again, arrogance got the best of this breakdown Buzz. Mr Lightyear panicked like a stray dog, and decided to show his cards early. This may, in fact, bite him in the ass soon. All I can say for Buzz, is I’d be willing to bet his time is limited. Buzz off Buzz.

Tonight Angie Swindell, the pharmaceutical sales representative from Orlando was the third house guest evicted from the Big Brother house. Angie played the game by sitting around quietly, observing the other house guests. She never really got too involved, and I think that might have been what did her in. The only good thing about her being evicted over Jessie is that there is one more week of drama between the two sides of the house.

As you all know, Keesha is the Head of Household this week, and she must nominate two people for eviction. Last night Keesha quickly made the decision that she was nominating Angie for eviction. That decision was pretty much based on her first impression of her when she entered the house. She thought to herself “That girl will win this game.” and that’s  why she needs to go. I’ve heard of a gut feeling, but to have a feeling that predicts something that’s going to  happen 3 months in the future is just a little unbelievable. I’m thinking that her initial impression of her was actually just that of a girl not liking another girl for, whatever reason girls don’t like each other. But, regardless of the reason, her first choice for nomination was made easily.

Tonight, Steven was the second person evicted from the Big Brother house this season. He was one of the most genuine people in the house, and he left way too early. But on the bright side, in typical Big Brother fashion, Steven’s best friend in the house, Keesha won HOH.

I’m really happy she won; that stupid look of confidence on Libra’s face was annoying the hell out of me through the whole HoH competition. Come to think of it, Libra annoyed me from the moment she referred to some of the house guests as “floaters” earlier in the episode. It’s only week 3; nobody can be called a floater this early in the game, and that very comment is why I want  her to be nominated this week.

I wanted to wait until Sunday, July 20^th aired before I wrote my first Take.  And after seriously watching each person, and their movements and actions, I have come to many conclusions about this summer’s Big Brother houseguests:

The Meathead
First off, here’s my thoughts on this week’s HOH, Jesse. “Unbelievable” in one word… This guy looks like Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story. Casting did an incredible job finding this vain character. Although he puts out great TV, he has truly proven that he does not have the strength to make his own decisions, and must maintain in a collective way of thinking. OMG… people unable to think in this game, surprise, surprise! And that arrogant comment at the end of the show about not being able to get his full bicep in the camera: CLASSIC.
