Big Brother USA 11 (Spoilers)

[Spot's Meow]

Re: Big Brother USA 11

I've been watching Big Brother After Dark and so far it seems like this is one of the most stupid casts ever. Everything from the way they talk to the way they strategize just seems so brainless. It's funny that Natalie lied about being 18 because she actually does act that age.

I liked Lydia at first but after seeing how incredibly irritating she is, all whiny and clingy, I don't like her much at all.

Spoiler: BB Nom spoliers

The pressure of her [Lynda] being on the block has gotten to her. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and say her whiny behavior is just her fear of being the first evictee. She's been a mess for the past two days. I think if she survives this week, you'll see a less panicky (and therefore less irritating) Lydia.

The POV ceremony doesn't happen until tomorrow (I think) but it's looking like...

Spoiler: possible POV ceremony spoiler

The plan (as of right now) is for Russell to use the POV - with HOH Jessie's blessing - to take Lydia off the block and replace her with Braden. Jessie has been reassuring Chima that she will stay and Braden will go. We'll see.

In other news, we had our first big crazy fight of the season. I won't spoil it other then to say the Athlete click does not get along with one another. It'll definitely make it to TV - bleeped out as all hell.

You really should have wrapped that in spoiler tags. The next episode doesn't air until Sunday night, you know.

Is there any way to split this discussion up into a spoiler thread and a non-spoiler thread? Even when people use spoiler tags, stuff like this always tends to leak out, which is just a tad annoying for those of us who don't watch the live feeds.

This thread is about the Big Brother 11 season. Which, almost by definition, includes the Afterdark stuffon Showtime and the live-feeds. Don't want to be spoiled? Don't post in here. (Or I guess start your own spoiler-free thread.)

That, or don't freak out over spoilers on a freaking TV reality show.

Oh Shit! Seriously, Level 2, I apologize. That was a sloppy mistake on my part. I'm sorry. I'm usually better about that. I've corrected the mistake (I guess its too late for you) but I promise to be more careful with spoilers in the future.

Re: Big Brother USA 11

Spoiler: The past couple of days

Yeah, Lydia has been better for the past day or two. She seems to have gotten over Jessie and is more into game mode. I hope she stays mostly because I like "her side" of the house much better. Natalie, Jessie, and Russell seem rather cocky and just annoying. But of course they will end up dominating. This happens every season...the house splits in two and the crappy alliance ends up going to the end while the "good" alliance of likeable people is decimated. Oh how I wish this would change!
I didn't see the fight but I can hear them talking about it on After Dark. Sounds like it will be fun to watch!

The first week is always kind of weird in what they decide to show us. They've already been in the house a full week, so much has happened, but we've only seen the HOH competition. I wonder if they will show us the Have/Have-Nots competition and the nominations tonight and the Veto stuff on Tuesday...yeah I guess that would work. It sucks for the nominees this week because they have to go almost two weeks before the elimination.

Lydia is off the block and Braden is the replacement nominee.

Chill, man. I just asked that plot details of unaired episodes be put in spoiler tags. I don't think that's so unreasonable, and obviously, neither does Hennessy Badger. It's even in the forum rules that you should give people some warning if you're going to reveal plot details of an upcoming episode. It doesn't say "unless it's a reality show".

Re: Big Brother USA 11

First five minutes of this episode and I already want Jessie gone again.

Re: Big Brother USA 11

I haven't watched tonight's episode yet but here's my thoughts on some spoilery stuff...

Spoiler: Veto and Other Stuff.

I don't really get why Lydia seems to be switching sides. She's even been moving away from her best bud Jordan to work with Jessie and Natalie. Does she really think that side will be loyal to her? I think she has a better chance with the Jordan, Braden, and Jeff crowd. And hopefully Michele, Ronnie, and Casey (though those three don't seem to be fully on any side). I'm probably missing some key conversations since I don't have the live feeds, I just watch After Dark (though I must say the past two nights have been 100% strategy talking, nothing else).

And Jessie's still a douchebag. Can't wait until he is no longer HOH and someone can possibly get rid of him. Or Russell. Or Natalie.

Re: Big Brother USA 11

Ok:

I'm not good with names so I've not got these people "pegged" yet so I'm going to use what I think their names are along with a short (if sometimes crude) discription of them.

Jessie: JESUS. This guy is such a douche. I don't think he really does weights so much as he's just so goddamn full of himself that he's busting at the seams. The sooner he is gone the better we all will be.

Ronnie: (Pasty "Brains" guy.) I kind of like him but, dude, a fauxhawk? Really? And, seriously man, keep your shirt on. Pasty brainy guys nation wide could use the favor and I don't think he did himself any favors with taking charge during the challenge. (Though I guess someone had too.)

Bespectacled "Brainy" Girl: I like her.

Chimera (?)(Diva chick.): Grow the fuck up and get over yourself. Jesus, no wonder she was nominated.

Bulky Bald Dude: I kind of like him. He reminds me of cross between RAMA and Dominic Purcell.

Janet, Jane, Julie? (Big-boobed girl): She looks so much like S9's Jen it's scary. I've not yet settled on how I feel aabout her boobs. In the jock-bra and clothing she looks ok but in a bikini it's almost disgusting how big They are. (They're so big they deserve to be treated as a proper noun.)

Kevin (Token Gay): Seriously, they couldn't of made a more gay stereotype if they carved him our of Liberace's crap

Tank Girl/Tatt Girl: I kind of like her. She's spunky!

Forgetable Guy: Forgetable.

"18" Year Old Grl: Meh. She hasn't stood out for me yet.

Old Guy: Just there, mostly, right now but he seems kind of cool.

Blondie: Seems nice, kinda cute, but dim. She couldn't figure our simple degrees like "90" and "180" during the challenge? I guess she missed that entire unit of her third-grade math class.

Oh, and it would seem that the Big Brother house designers this year got a real deal on diamond plate.

Interesting episode, not too surprising on the nominations, and GOD Jessie needs to go away.

And, I dunno, I can fall asleep on almost any horizontal surface so that diamond-plate slab with the cushion on it looked fine to me, granted, not overly comfortable but a sleep-onable surface. Diva was just being a diva for Diva's sake.

But, man, Ronnie. Keep a frickin' shirt on!

I'm glad we don't have to go through another season of Cowboy.

My wife loves this show.

Spoiler: More veto and Other Stuff

Basically, I think Lydia did what she had to in order to survive this week. Nothing permanent and certainly with no real loyalty to the group. Jessie, Natalie, & Russell are in power right now (I'm not counting Jeff since he's pretty much dead to his click) - As soon as the power shifts to another click I'm POSITIVE the Athletes will be pounced on in the biggest way.

And Jessie's still a douchebag. Can't wait until he is no longer HOH and someone can possibly get rid of him. Or Russell. Or Natalie.

I'd guess Jess will be target #1 will the inevitable power shift occurs.

Ronnie: (Pasty "Brains" guy.) I kind of like him but, dude, a fauxhawk? Really?

Yeah, thankfully as of late he's laid off the hair gell...for now.

Bespectacled "Brainy" Girl: I like her.

I watch the feeds waaaay to much, and even still I forget she's even in the house! I mean, there's laying low and then there's laying low. I predict the term "floater" will be assigned to her very soon. But from what I've seen, she's nice. Just a little boring.

Chimera (?)(Diva chick.): Grow the fuck up and get over yourself. Jesus, no wonder she was nominated.

And have you seen her forehead? Botox gone overboard. Chima couldn't frown to save her life!

Tank Girl/Tatt Girl: I kind of like her. She's spunky!

Same. She's got a killer smile.

Forgettable Guy: Forgettable.

That will change. Trust me.

"18" Year Old Grl: Meh. She hasn't stood out for me yet.

I'm torn on her. She's a real fan of the show, which I love. But she's...

Spoiler: mild spoilers

...after my girl Lydia in a big way, which is not cool. Plus I'm thinking she the Jessie are gonna have sex. Just throwing that out there.

Blondie: Seems nice, kinda cute, but dim. She couldn't figure our simple degrees like "90" and "180" during the challenge? I guess she missed that entire unit of her third-grade math class.

She's probably the biggest/only sweetheart in the house. But you're 100% right on the dim thing. To this day she occasionally refers to Chima as "Keesha" (from last season!).

Re: Big Brother USA 11

Ugh. I got maybe two minutes into last night's episode before I shut it off. It was a montage of Jesse, showing how much he loves himself. Over. and over. and over again.

I don't even know the guy, and I already think he's the biggest jerk on television these days. So it's deleted now. When he's gone, someone please let me know and I'll try to tune in again. But not before then.

 

[Hennessy Badger]

Re: Big Brother USA 11

More fights today. Racial slurs being thrown around. Ugly stuff.

Without saying too much - someone definitely sealed their fate today.

Jessie is a giant douche. I mean, really, the guy is all of the jocks who shoved me into my locker rolled into one. He's got an ounce or two of likability and charm of him but it's a couple of ounces in an ocean of self-loving smarmy douchiness. The guy is a walking stereotype of the body builder right down to the flexing, kissing his own muscles and even the way he talks.



The sooner he goes away the better.

Re: Big Brother USA 11

We have our first hook-up of the season! And much to everyone's disgust
it's Jessie and...

Spoiler: showmance other half

...Lydia! What is she thinking!?!

 

[Spot's Meow]

Re: Big Brother USA 11

^In reply...

Spoiler: Hmm

Oh. my. god. Yucks. I know she said she was willing to hook up with whoever she needed to to get ahead, but honestly, he's not worth it and I doubt it would get you ahead with him anyway. You know while watching After Dark a couple of days ago Lydia said something about an "afternoon delight" with Jessie and I thought she was just kidding...apparently not.

Re: Big Brother USA 11

So unfortunately it looks like it's going to Braden tonight.

I'd rather see Chima and her princess attitude hit the road, not only to screw with the Athletes alliance, but to hasten the jettisioning of Ronnie.
