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 11 Week 3 Nomination Spoilers

First off I want to congratulate Russell for getting “mean guy” music on this week’s live show. When you get your own BB music, you’ve made the big time. Also, congratulations are in order to Jessie for winning his first HoH competition this season, and his 3rd overall stint as HOH in the game of Big Brother.

We saw on the live show that the house doesn’t like Ronnie so much. Well, the plan is, or should I say was to get rid of Ronnie this week, but ever since Jessie has won the HoH the plan has become less clear. Jessie, for whatever reason sees Ronnie as an asset, and Natalie feels sorry for how mean everyone was to him after they found he was a liar.  Those facts make it a lot easier for the house’s plan to go on the back burner.

While the house guests aren’t being especially nice to Ronnie,  there is something about the vibe that says the majority doesn’t feel like getting rid of Ronnie this week. With that said Jessie nominated Jordan and Michelle for eviction this week. That choice does fit in with the original plan to back door Ronnie, but it still remains to be seen if the person who wins veto will use it to remove one of the nominees. We’ll see what happens when the veto competition is played tonight or tomorrow.

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.
