Just Us Nerds

It might be time to pull the plug on this one, BB fans. Howie’s gone, Janelle’s all alone in the shark tank again, and the bad idea that is Big Brother All Stars keeps getting worse & worse. Even CBS realized it, and moved the show’s finale up a week, hence the double eviction this week that sent poor Howie out the door on his ass. All these people do is lay around all day endlessly rehashing their old seasons, talking about sequester bonuses & promoting websites, and complaining. It’s not very compelling stuff, and I get bored & wander off after about 10 minutes on the feed now. At least with Howie in there I got a chuckle every now & again. Now that he’s gone… I got nuthin’.

To be determined…

• Chilltown seemed like they might be separating a bit this past week, but it was probably just a mirage. Boogie’s HOH now, and there could be some trouble if Will wants him to put up Erika… but more than likely that’s all just CBS-created smoke without fire. Will & Mike are still the odds-on favorites for final 2, and this thing seems more and more scripted every day. Their act is starting to get old, but hey, at least they managed to take the wind out of CBS’ sails by making the AMAZING NEW POWER of the coup d’etat totally irrelevant.
• Danielle surprised me with her apparently genuine attempts to make Janelle feel better after Howie’s eviction. But I’m sure she’ll open her mouth & spoil it all soon enough. Ugh, I HATE that woman.
• Erika. Yawn. Yeah… she’s still there. She takes up oxygen, and that’s about it. Hey, at least she doesn’t take up much space.
• Chicken George. You backdoored Howie. He liked you, too. So did I. You’ve been in over your head since the beginning, but you’re just chum in the water now, Mr. Fart, and all the goofy home-made costumes & cooking people dinner in the world can’t save you. I’d wish you good luck, but you wouldn’t know what to do with it if you got it.
• James. You’re always a bad sport, that’s what makes you almost fun to watch. But this year your hypocracy & your self-righteousness have loomed to annoying proportions, and now you’re just like fingernails on a blackboard. And you called my lil Janie a fat piece of shit. You & Dani deserve each other.
• Janelle. Hang in there, baby. Remember, you’ll always be America’s choice.

So, did Julie Chen seem a little cranky friday morning on The Early Show? Well, BB fans, that’s because she had to work late. in case you haven’t heard, Howie’s bitching about his malfunctioning buzzer reached a fever pitch after Thursday night’s 3rd Kaysar eviction & instalation of Erika as HOH. The result? A whole new HOH competition was held around midnight. The winner? That’s right, bitches, it was my little janie, who wasted no time in putting Erika & Danielle’s asses on the block. it was a nice aknowledgment of some kind of truth happening by BB… although with the dreaded Coup D’Etat hanging over everyone’s heads, it’s obvious that the producers are still reserving the right to just make this shit up as they go along.

8/11:

HOH:
Janelle

NOMINATED:
Erika & Danielle

POWER OF VETO:
To be determined…

• First, a few words about Kaysar, who was evicted on his birthday. WTF, BB? Kaysar doesn’t get an exit interview, instead you just ambush him with the James-stabbed-him-in-the-back-and-hates-Janie-and-don’t-you-feel-like-an-IDIOT crap? That was brutal, and uncalled for, and quite frankly, not very entertaining. It would have been much more interesting to let Kaysar learn that shit from the goodbye messages than from you, Julie Chen, you robotic, souless, Michael jackson’s plastic surgeon reject, fuck-the-boss-for-a-job loser. Here’s s tip. America loves Kaysar. But we HATE you.
• :::ahem::: OK, Kaysar really isn’t cut out for this game. Reading Sun Tzu is all well & good, but the strategies, as sound as they are, rely too much on people being honest, or at the very least, having a vague notion of what the word honor means. A fatal error in a house full of nothing but evil, and/or stupid liars. Bye again, kays. We’ll miss you on the night shift.
• Danielle & James’ Legion Of Doom (with Doom defined as self-righteous assholes) appears to still be intact, even after James fucked her over in the veto competition & snagged the phone call from home so he could talk to Scarah. Great, more self-important crying in the Diary Room from Dani about how much she misses her hellspawn. Beautiful. Anyway, some people are too stupid to put 2 and 2 together to make 4, and they get what they deserve.
• As for James, he’s back snuggling up with Howie & Janelle again, and Janie’s patented BB7 James-amnesia appears to be firing up. I’m sorry, I’m not buying it… she’s not that stupid, and EVERYONE knows it. I smell a script.
• Marcellas became entertaining for awhile there when the claws came out and he turned on Janelle. But his moaning about how much he loved Diane, and his moaning about EVERYTHING ELSE has gotten old fast. When he walks into a room on the feeds these days, I’ll usually start looking for someplace to ditch, before the whining starts.
• Erika thought she got rewarded by the BB gods for turning her back on Kaysar in favor of her new snakes James & Dani… but a twist of fate (?) put her ass on the block. And she’ll probably go home because of it, unless she can pull out the POV competition, or figure out the Coup D’Etat clues. Maybe she should have spent less time starving & more time figuring stuff out, becuase now she’s unprepared.
• Ah, Chicken George. What can I say? What the hell are you doing in there with these horrible, horrible people. You’ve pissed James off again, for what who the fuck even knows, but he was just in the starage room with dani calling you a worthless piece of shit and a liar again, so watch your back, pal.
• Oh, Howie… I don’t care what happens, you still amuse me, and your loyalty to Janelle, especially in this setting, is genuinely touching. It will, as always, cost you the win… but I don’t think I’d even be able to watch the feeds this year if you hadn’t been along for the ride. Hee, and Iove how you’ve turned Will’s “Big Boy” insults of you into a weapon of mass infuriation against him. That’s my boy.
• Which brings us to Chilltown, or Willboogie, or Dracula & his little Renfield, however you want to call it. What can I say, I’m converted. They’re fresh, entertaining, funny, and smart, and they’ve apparently got this thing all locked up (whether scripted or not). They’re in an alliance with everyone in the house, and true to only their own, and they revel in the fact that eveyone should know that, but apparently doesn’t. failing a major screw-up, or a BB script change, they’re your final 2, and that’s money.

More later as events warrant…

I was housesitting for awhile there, and was separated from The Feed, a living, writhing, twisting hell-on-earth that I will never fully be able to explain to anyone but my fellow feedsters. But I’m back now. And just in time for things to get…

eeeenteresting.

7/23-24:

HOH:
James

NOMINATED:
Will & Jase

POWER OF VETO:
George: Used POV to save himself

• James finally won a HOH, which has been an interesting experience for both him and me. I was (and remain) worried about his loyalty to Season 6, but he’s spent his HOH time pretty well conferenced with Kaysar, and they’re making decisions (and flip flopping on them & making new ones) together. For the time being, I will feel safer in the knowledge that the snake will strike later, rather than sooner. They’re ready for it later. It’s expected.
• Marcellas is “nervousing” as much as Cowboy used to do, and it’s getting on my nerves, not to mention that it’s very unattractive. C’mon Marcy… you’re America’s gay sweetheart. Act like it. I will give you big ups, however, for your time with Janie… it’s occasionally priceless. In your very own words, “Marcellas & Janelle are in the tub together. Big Brother All Stars starts NOW.”
• George had a very bad week. Nominated. Reviled. Plus all the jedi training. He was put up by James because James hates players that just skate to the end and leave the big moves up to bolder players. And also because he was busted cold by James listening to a conversation he was having through a door. George does do that… he’s quite the lil listener. But, the Chicken Man gutted it up, and won himself the Power of veto, which he promptly used to take his ass off the block… certainly a bold move, eh, James? Bold enough to win him the respect of a few of the more hardcore players.. for the time being, anyway. His ass will be right back up there the second someone wants to make it through HOH without putting a big target on their back. And George will be missed, because from what I can see, he’s the only one that cleans anything up around there. After he’s gone it’ll just be a bunch of pretty, lazy people wandering around in their own filth.
• So. The rumors are true. Mr. & Mrs. Smith do exist. In case you’ve missed this saga, let me first say that Danielle wasn’t the person who figured it out, no matter what CBS tries to make it look like. Diane’s crazy roommate Toni called Janelle up 3 weeks before the game started and warned her that Diane & Jase were going in with a secret alliance, and that they planned to take the house apart like “Mr. & Mrs. Smith.” Everybody knew about it, and the only thing Danielle figured out is that she should shut her big mouth and kiss everyone’s ass. Which she is doing rather well, btw.

More later.

But before I go, courtesy of reealytease at youtube.com…

Translation… the game is up – “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” talk damage control:

Marcy & Janie in the red room, and Marcy’s pissed:

Nothing matches the glory and the pagentry of the few hours leading up to a Big Brother live telecast. The preening… the primping… the pumping… it’s like a documentary about animals mating on The Discovery Channel. And then there’s the “Hi Julie!” and “Thanks Julie” of the HG’s in the living room. Hurricaine Howie even had a “Thanks Julie!” T-shirt on. And everything’s hunky dory, and everyone’s pals… until we start to peel the layers.

But invariably, what the producers decide to show you in the telecasts is seldom, if ever, the whole story. Following each BB7 telecast this season, join me here, and we’ll try to separate fact from fiction… lies from half-truths… and Howie from Dr. Will!

7/12:

EVICTED:
Alison

HOH:
Kaysar

The feed continues…

• Aside from all the usual bullshit created CBS drama (that you can stop from entering your head by having the feeds, BTW) another pretty decent representation of actual events in a CBS telecast.
• The one aspect we feedsters miss is the Diary Room entries. It was nice to see James seem pretty solid with his fellow BB6ers in the DR, since his DR entries last year were very candid. You still never take your eyes off him, but maybe he’s OK for at least a few weeks.
• Dani crying in the DR about made me puke my guts out. The shit people said about you after BB3 weren’t lies. You’re a cold hearted, backstabbing bitch, and you can’t climb into the DR and bawl, and tearfully claim that you aren’t, because we’ve all SEEN IT. You should go next, bitch… but there may be bigger fish to fry. Just don’t think anyone’s gonna fall for the Saint Dani routine & let you skate to the final 2 again. You’re fucking gone, Dani… sooner rather than later. But don’t take my word for it. Just ask Marcellas. And Erika!
• Ali goes bye-bye, just like we all knew was going to happen. Boogie’s “I tried to save you, but the tide turned at the last minute” crapola is such a buch of shite… Boogie won’t pee if Dr. Will doesn’t let him, even if it means his kidneys explode. And Dr. Will wanted Ali gone tonight, no matter what the telecast tried to make you believe… if for no other reason that Ali was distracting Howie from him. One less set of boobies in the way.
• Nice focus on Jase tonight, and most of it very true. I hated his fucking guts last time, and still doubt the “America voted him in” thing… but if CBS fudged it, I’m kinda glad they did, because he’s gold this year. More mature like Julie said, but he’s also more personable, without having lost his edge. And his cocky but true candidness in both the DR, and the live interviews with the Chenbot will go along way in making this season more watchable once the house finally polarizes.
• Erika’s final message to Ali after her eviction, and Ali’s reaction to it was, in this BB fan’s eyes, amazing. In the words of Jerry Maguire, we live in a world of tough competitiors. It’s why I like this reality show the best, and have pledged myself to it above all others. This show is purely, plainly, and simply about fucking over everyone else to win. There’s no pretense of tribes, or teams, or any of that shit. Consequently, truly emotional moments are at a premium. And we got one tonight. Ali was the reason Erika got evicted last time around, and it wasn’t pretty. But tonight, Erika cried during her final mesasage to Ali, and talked about how maybe she thought she could somehow “get her back” (they were friends once upon a time). And Ali was stunned… and she appreciated it. Anyway… in a show filled woth lies & backstabbing, and scorched-earth techniques, it was truly a very nice moment.
• Janie played dumb in the one-on-one with the Chenbot… and there’s still no one who plays dumb better. Even among the All-Stars… who should know better… I swear she’s STILL gonna get a couple with that act. I love you, Janie!!!!
• CBS producers… I’m only gonna say this once… and then a million more times until you do it… WE WANT MORE WILL & HOWIE. Seriously kids.. who’s working who in this relationship?
• Wow. 8 to 2. I seriously didn’t think anyone would be SO fucking stupid to fall for all the “we really want to keep Ali so she can take out Janie” horse shit that’s been flying around all week… wait… ooooh yeeeeeaaaah… NAKOMIS & DIANE!!!!!! Congratulations, morons!!!! you’re the proud winners of these two brand new targets, and they’re ON YOUR BACKS!



• I liked the “Alison Rules” aspect of the HOH comp… It was certainly more interesting than the usual Q & A competitions. Julie gave everyone in the entire BB universe wet pants with her flub, accidentally naming Nakomis winner instead of Kaysar… sorry Nik!!! Oh well, at least she heard her name called once before she goes away. Eh, maybe I’m wrong. Maybe the Big Brother All Stars, the finest, craftiest, strongest, and most storied players to ever play the game, will allow the inventor of the Six Finger Strategy to stick around as long as she likes. Yeah, ya know what pal? Pull this leg and it plays Jingle Bells.
• OK, my heart is pretty much on my sleeve… Janie’s my girl. I was happy as fucking HELL that Kaysar won the HOH, because it assures my lil Janie some safety for awhile, and also takes the target off of her a little bit… but someone really should have talked to Howie beforehand about the celebration, should one of them win. The last thing they needed was a big, alienating display of unity that would piss off the rest of the house even MORE… and that’s exactly what Hurricane Howie gave them.
• All bets are off, kids… King Kaysar is in charge this week… and he’s learned more than one or two lessons. The shit starts here.

more soon.

For a nice example of what you miss by not having the feeds… here’s the real reason why Dani had Chicken George’s vote tonight. Courtesy thatdingo’s Hamsterwatch (my favorite BB site). Enjoy…

It’s almost too much to try to do a breakdown on house events for the last few days… with voting right around the corner, activity is fast and furious, and with so many HGs, it seems there’s enough new 2-person alliances, false-start alliances, half-truths, and out-and-out lies to fucking choke a tarrantula. But invariably, what the producers decide to show you in the telecasts is seldom, if ever, the whole story. Following each BB7 telecast this season, join me here, and we’ll try to separate fact from fiction… lies from half-truths… and Janie from the fucking refrigerator (Jeez Louise, girl!!!)

7/11:

HOH:
Janelle & Jase (co-HOH’s)

NOMINATED:
Alison & Danielle

POWER OF VETO:
Janelle
Power Of Veto: Not used

• A pretty good wrap-up of current events by CBS this week… Last year by this time they had already jumped the gun by making Cappy & his crew look like heroes, and they couldn’t back down from it without looking like assholes. They may have learned a lesson there… or at the very least they just haven’t picked people to cast in various roles yet.
• We got a look at the Will/Howie dynamic tonight, but not nearly as much time was spent on it as it deserves… these two are on each other constantly, and I kept waiting for it to not be funny anymore, but it still is. Kinda like Howie last year… he grows on you.
• There was the usual bullshit CBS-created drama tonight, showing Janie looking like she’s not sure who she wants to go, everyone saying they don’t know who they want to go, Dani saying she thinks she’ll be the one to go… That’s fucking crock. Ali’s gotten rather ugly in the last day or so, and pretty much everyone is in agreement on her leaving. I was starting to like having her around, but she crossed the line for me tonight. She called Janelle “Busto” right there on TV. If you’re new to this, that was Howie’s name for a disgusting, cretinous, functionally retarded, trailer trash K-Mart queen from Season 6. Janie may be alot of things… but never compare her to April. Bye bye, bitch.
• Back to Dani… It irks me that we can’t lose Dani this week. I know Ali’s the smart play, but I’m sick of everyone (herself included) talking about what a “smart player” Dani is. So she’s never been nominated. Big fucking deal. She never opened her repugnant mouth in BB3, except to trash everyone in the diary room (which is why she’s universaly despised by the BB3ers). Did she ever win a single competition? She latched on to a stronger, more well-liked player & was dragged to the end by him, where she LOST. There. I said it. She really deserves to go home Thursday. The first time she opens up her stupid mouth, and it backfired on her soooo spectaculary… it was truly beautiful. But she won’t make that mistake again, so when she stays, she becomes a threat to go stealth again. Grrr… I wanna double-eviction.
• I try to keep Diane offa my radar, and my feeds, just because every time I look at her I feel like I need to take a shower. Seriously… ick. But she’s getting hard to ignore, working everyone in sight, and telling them anything that comes to mind about anyone. She and Nakomis seem to have something starting up that might be a real alliance
• Likewise Erika & Marcellas. They seem pretty tight. The descision of whom to evict thursday is causing some tension, but I don’t think enough to splt ‘em. It makes me sad that Marcellas is so actively against my BB6 pals… but I feel better knowing that he at least wants to save at my Janie while he’s at it. And, just like in BB3, I have a feeling that sentimentality will be his undoing, whether he says he’s learned his lesson or not.
• The BB6ers are not in a good position right now. Janie got HOH first (no one’s really buying that Jase is with her or the BB6ers, so he’s a non factor as co-HOH this week, imho) & she won the veto first, establishing herself as the biggest target, even though she was already the biggest target. And the BB6ers are viewed as a rock-solid alliance, and therefore under attack from everyone else in the house… the problem is, they’re not rock solid. Howie let Maggot manipulate him into puting James & Sara on the block last year, and Sara went home because of it. You know that’s a thorn in James’ side. Plus, Kaysar & Janie are oddly distant to each other. I hope that it’s just gamesmanship, and I know it probably is, but it still makes me nervous. Will is on the right track. Go at the BB6ers through Howie, and you could conceivably tumble the whole thing down. I just call ‘em like I see ‘em BB Fans.

Quote of the week:
Will (imitating the Big Brother House voice): “Howie, please stop being so fucking fat.”

More later…

Jase, Will, & Boogie, discovering what the rest of us already know about my lil Janie, courtesy of therealdeal:

I can’t believe how late these fuckers stay up, considering nothing’s happening yet. Alison has her back up against a wall, since it’s obvious she’s the intended evictee… but she’s barely even campaining. Howie’s antics are always amusing, albeit a bit played out by now… even Erika has said “you need some new material, Howie.” And sure, we like to see the chicks in their bikinis… but the real star of this show so far is Dr. Will.

The Feed never sleeps… and neither do I, while it’s on.

BB7 Quote of the day:

Janie: You aren’t going to flip, are you?
James: No. Howie didnt know how to play last year, now he has brains

• Feed watchers agree that we miss the fish. Last year, when there was something that CBS didn’t want us to see, the feeds switched to a camera inside the fish tank, and we got to see the fishies live, and we heard bubbles. This year, we hear the horrible newe BB theme, and we see billowing flames. I miss the fish. And I’m not alone.
• The girls all joined together and made dinner.
• We heard the sound of a plane flying. Jase, outside in the back yard, looks up & says, “Skywriting!” Will looks up and confirms, “Yeah, there’s skywriting!” CBS immediately cuts the feeds. The feeds remained cut for quite awhile…
• Later this evening, Will is called to the diary room… when he returns, he makes intimations that BB chsatized him for talking about the skywriting, and that he’s “not allowed to talk about anything anymore.”
• Howie, obviously referencing his rant against April ( Busto) last season, says that he will “verbally assault” anyone who comes after him for percieved ‘personal reasons’.”
• Howie jumped the gun completely and named the supposed new alliance (him, Janie, Kaysar, James, Erika, and Marcellas) “the Jedi Council.”
• Will is giving Janie sleeping pills :
  Janie: “I hate to keep asking you”
  Will: “It’s fine… how many did you take last night, 1 or 2?
  Janie: “2″
  Will: “I’m gonna take 2 tonight”
• Jase, James & Marcellas have named the tarrantulas. The little one is Cowboy. The others are Monica, Ivette and Lisa. Janie wants to name the hairiest one Bunky.
• James said that had he won the HOH, he would have been “The biggest asshole anyone has ever seen.” I guess he forgot that last year he was already the biggest asshole anyone has ever seen.
• Nakomis & Dani chat for awhile… the biggest/best BB truth they uncover? “A Big Brother day is like a week in the real world.” Yeah… think how long it feels for us feedsters.
• Diane said that “she slept too much” during her original season on BB. Every person in the entire universe who ever saw her season bit their tounges & thought “You slept with DREW too much during your original season… and the handjobs probably didn’t hurt.
• Janelle & Dani finally agreed on something… that they needed more wine. They then went on an intensive search of the pantry for more.
• Evil Ali lived up to her much ballyhooed nickname by eating all the cashews out of the mixed nuts. Seriuosly, if shit doesn’t start to happen soon I’m gonna plunge these chopsticks through my eyes & into my brain.
• Boogie talked about how he used to be fat when he was a kid. No one really bought it… I think if there were some lizards around they might have been impressed.
• Howie finally spilled the beans about having a sister (Ashley) and Will wasted no time in ripping into Howie about her… particularly how he’d bang her, and how much she’d like it. Howie, knowing when he’s been bested, gave the round to Will.
• Janie has said aloud that the “getting to know you” stage should be over, and that it’s boring. Good call, Janie. I knew there was this reason to love you, along with the twenty-thousand others.
• One of the most intersting aspects of the “All Star” concept so far has been the houseguests discussing the mechanics of their lives after BB. Like Kaysar & James talking about the changing fortunes of their various websites.
• Marcellas described his relationship with Amy, post-BB, and it was kinda sad to hear… I liked having Marcellas & Amy together forever in my head.

Diane decides to remind us exactly how stupid she is when James tries to use the word “relative” in a conversation with her. And she’s picking her armpit, too. Niiiiiiiiice.

By this time last year things had already started to get nasty. This year, however… we’re still on the honeymoon. It’s that fun time when everyone is working out, discussing how they’re going to work out, who they’re gonna work out with (“You gonna work abs tomorrow? Me too, I could work abs tomorrow.”). But it won’t be long before everyone starts blowing it off, and they either just eat all the time and get fat, or they don’t eat anything at all and start withering away.

And The feed rolls on…

• Another late night last night, but still nothing juicy happening.
• We started with a chess match/strategy discusion with Janelle & Kaysar, and that was nice… just like the BB6 good old days. Nothing earth-shattering discussed, mainly Kaysar warning Janie about trusting people too much too soon, a timely topic, since Janie obvioulsy wants to take Marcellas & Erika into the BB6ers’ fold. I’m not sure how good an idea this is… need more input. I’m pretty sure Marcellas can be trusted, but he’s also the owner of the biggest fuck-up in BB history, so do you really want him around? As for Erika, she’s a cypher.
• Janie won the Veto, and the competition was apparently pretty physical, as she had hurt her leg. She was icing it down off and on all night… it actually did look a little swollen, but she was asked several times if she wanted some Advil, and she said no, so who knows how hurt she really is. She isn’t above a little manufactured drama to see how people respond to her…Ali was very helpful, but Janie obviously wasn’t buying it. One thing is certain: her & Jase’s nominations will stand.
• Danielle was pretty chummy with everyone for most of the night, even Marcellas, which is odd. She’s way to comfortable for someone who’s on the block, but she’s got good reason, I guess, as it looks like the prevailing wind is to blow Alison out her ass… she’s seen as a threat, and a schemer, and a tramp, all of which she is, which is why she’s such good television. Dani has somehow managed to become more boring since her season, and I’d much rather see the door swing for her & keep Evil Ali around awhile.
• There was a food competition yesterday as well, and it was obviously pretty disgusting, as Ali was talking about squeegeeing squid guts out of the shower, and Will said Howie’s breath still smelled like “hot garbage” clearly a reference to his having ate something gross.
• They won the food comp though, as Howie busted out the ice cream & everyone had some, sharing spoons & bowls in a very nice moment… Howie was hitting on everyone (even Marcellas), Boogie actually seemed somewhat human for a few minutes, and Erika may have actually digested some food.
• The rest of the night was mostly the gang hanging out in the hot tub & by the fire acting nice & cozy, which is still pretty gag-inducing… Jase & Dani discovering that they both take thyroid medication… lame discussions about pop culture & movies… Dr. Will’s foolproof ways to make money on the internet… Seriously… bleah.
• The night ended with Dani in bed, totally obsessed with food for some reason, unable to talk about anything else, wondering about dinner tonight. Apparently it’s salmon.
• Hopefully things will get ugly soon, because I can’t take a whole summer of this.

More to come…

It has arrived. The thing that brings to light my most shameful addiction… the full moon to my Larry Talbot… the Big Brother Live Feed. Remember Hamster watchers… I watch the feeds until my eyes boil out of my head… my work suffers, and my personal relationships plunge down the shitter… ALL FOR YOU!!! So be sure to join me here for recaps, gossip, things I spotted, and once I find a good screen capping program that’ll fit on my crappy computer, screen caps & vid.

Remember: The real story is on the feeds.

HOH:
Janelle & Jase (co-HOH’s)

NOMINATED:
Alison & Danielle

• A late night tonight, with none of the houseguests asleep and it’s after 1. It’s still early, so nothing juicy’s happening. Like last year, it should be at least a day before shit starts hitting the fan… everyone’s still on their best behavior trying to feel their way around.
• Lots of friendly and BORING chit chat in the hot tub (except when Howie talked boobies) & the kitchen, mostly about how the different seasons have worked & wondering what else will be different this year.
• First Erika shower (niiiice!).
• Dr. Will is spending alot of time with Kaysar, obviously sizing him up… Kaysar isn’t biting.
• As expected, James is really working the crowd, spending face time with virtually everyone.
• Marcellas seems cranky… maybe still a lil peeved that he wasn’t voted in by the audience.
• Jase is openly discussing his showbiz “carreer” unlike last time. Jase & Nakomis were left alone together by the hot tub, and they talked strategy a bit, reaffirming their intentions to move on the Season Sixers, but unsure of who to align with. It’s obvious that they don’t particularly like each other, and that makes their time together really awkward… probably not the best alliance in BB history here.
• Marcellas & Erika are hanging out with Janie in the HOH room quite a bit… remeber kids, Ali got Erika kicked out in their season, and there has never been much love lost between Marcellas & Dani, so Janie & Jase’s noms put them right in line for an alliance.
• Ali & Dani are stinging from their noms, and trying to regroup… it may be too late for one of them, and it’s probably Dani.

More later.
