This site is about the Big Brother feeds and contains spoilers! It isn't necessarily thorough: it's what I catch and/or what interests me. It also isn't necessarily about who will win, who should win, who's cute or who's horrid. It's about watching hamsters: who's doing what and why, who's fun and who's dull. If they aren't entertaining, get rid of 'em! Thanks for encouraging my behavior.

AMERICA'S PLAYER

Task 1: Who should Dan get nominated? Jessie/successful

Task 2: Who should Dan hug for 10 seconds? Jessie/successful

Task 3: Who should Dan vote to evict? Jessie/successful

Dan gets $20k if successful and not discovered. The previously-announced 4th task evaporated. Apparently all the 'Dan is America's Player' suspicions will not invalidate him.. 'plant' didn't, anyway.

    Wakey wakey


    They got a 9am wakeup from a roaring gorilla suit

    He led them to the backyard which was scattered with clues for their luxury comp: three guesses each for "a common phrase"

    Clues included a female contortionist, models of a lifesize elephant, wolf, and ostrich; along with a giant hot dog, giant diamond, giant cake with ING on it, a wishing well, crashed spaceship, toga'd statue, OF on a stand, an ear on a board, and a bathtub full of peanut butter.. the contortionist left and the gorilla gradually started covering up most of the clues, eventually leaving these at the end of three hours:
       
    Jerry put in all his guesses very early and Dan trickled in his.. Keesha ran for the bell when just the blueBERRY and HATCH-IT were left.. Memphis Bob was stumped

           

    Dan won and will go to a "private beach for a day".. he said he could pick one to go with but opted to go alone so as not to create animosity.. (last night he & Memphis Bob said they'd take each other, since taking Keesha wouldn't sit well with Monica or Ashley).. it was Jessie in the gorilla suit.. he'll redeem his reputation a bit with that performance - he was a lot of fun this morning and did a great job.. also, the little table arrived

    Samurai Dan


    Well, it's more of a samurai look than sumo, anyway.. he wore it for nominations, along with TAKEN and his infamous shorts.. he put up Jerry and Memphis Bob

    Dan & Memphis Bob had discussed that option so M-Bob could act indignant and throw off suspicions.. neither of them expects Keesha or Jerry will do well in the veto (which is everything at this point) - they all expect something big that's at least partially physical

    Afterwards Keesha thanked Dan, either playing along with what she knows is a ruse, or more likely believing Dan saved her out of loyalty.. out of the apparent blue, he asked her what Renny thinks of him? leading to still more speculation about his day trip: maybe he gets to take a jury member to the beach in lieu of one of these guys.. while they chatted upstairs, Jerry continued to play cozy-up with Memphis Bob downstairs, driving him insane

    STFU Jerry


    So says the invisible thought bubble over Memphis Bob's head, after Jerry puppy-dogged him around the habitat to interrogate and gripe about Dan & Keesha.. he eventually escaped and hung out with Dan upstairs awhile, where they griped about Jerry

    They figured their veto comp was tonight since they were locked inside all afternoon & evening.. feedsters are used to sleeping hamsters - Showtime, not so much

    The nomination keybox remained in the pantry for awhile - it probably looked pretty silly with just one key in it.. Dan unwrapped and flashed his tinfoil veto at us again, then repacked it carefully away once more.. Jerry put on a rain jacket and hat at midnight and sat down to wait - he'd given his part-time teamie Memphis Bob a rain jacket earlier
           

    And again!


    It was a surprisingly short veto comp, just over an hour of trivia from start to finish

    When the feeds came back, we had the info we lacked last week, although it was the same result: Memphis Bob won the veto and will save himself again.. it sounds like another Q&A comp about past comps and evictees, and they had to quickly trot the answers up, down, or something

    Some screencaps of the day including most of the clues are in the forum

    Daily ratings - Spool of lies edition


    Ratings are based on entertainment value


    Ups for a great comp, reminiscent of the similar life-size, multi-part clue comps for BB7 and BB8, and like those, we got to watch and play along at home. Surprisingly, Jessie did an excellent job as habitat intruder/alarm clock/emcee, and he made it a lot of fun - not an easy task, since our final four seemed bored to death for most of it.. and after they've whined & bitched for weeks for another luxury comp. Is it too late to bring in replacement hamsters? Seriously, we could use them. By the way, what's up with the 2003 movie ticket stub they found in the wishing well? A little spit 'n polish never hurts, guys.


    Won: $20k (presumably)
    HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD
    He's popping a few funnies here & there but they're usually at someone's expense. Granted they're not malicious, but that isn't always the best way to be funny (even when his targets are worthy). More often, he's on reruns not only for his shorts but for his conversations too (as they all are). I didn't need the samurai headband or the cocky tinfoil veto wink, but there you are: it's Dan. Ups for guessing 'bury the hatchet' while other clues remained available (so did I and many of us out here, but we don't count). Whether he's going to take Michelle (or Renny) on his private beach trip remains to be seen: for now, it's just a rumor.




    Won: $4k
    NOMINATED
    I almost like the way he's annoying the poop out of the other three, since otherwise we'd have a trio of coma victims in there. It's just too bad he has to annoy us along with them. I do still have a hope or two for a fight between him and some or all of the others before we all pack up and go home. He didn't have a clue about the clues, submitting guesses like 'diamonds are a girl's best friend' and 'dogs are man's best friend'.. maybe he's feeling the pinch of having no friends in there.




    I just don't know what she's doing anymore. I think she finally caught on to 'bury the hatchet' since she ran to the bell when the last non-clue was covered up, but I'm not sure if she had it right or not. Until then she was stumped and didn't even seem to be trying. Then while all three guys power-napped before the veto comp, she passed out cold for several hours, and woke up slow & groggy when it was time to start. If BB8 Zach did coach her, he did well with the don't get nekkid advice and personal info stuff, but she must have stopped listening when he got to the part about winning comps at the end.




    Won: Classic Camaro
    NOMINATED - HOLDS VETO
    He too was stumped by the clues, but solids ups for winning yet another veto when he had to. Apparently he did study Zach's method of laying low, and then pulling out all the stops when he has to, as he sure is doing that now. He's having problems with Jerry following him around and he's going to suffer for the next three (count 'em THREE!) days with both Jerry & Keesha working on him, plus Dan reinforcing their Renny-gades deal (while possibly two-timing him at the beach). It could be an interesting few days considering all the options, and Memphis Bob's in a sticky spot now as he's got to cut loose one of his final two deals, and he's got to do it on live tv.




       
    She rebounded from a disastrous start to become a feedsters dream and viewer fave. She planted subtle seeds, was liked even by those she poked at, and she revived the Dr. Will method of manipulation without malice. She also had a full costume trunk and put on unexpected shows to keep them and us rolling in the aisles. Hamsterwatch Star of the Season: she personified why feeds are required.




       
    He arrived as the innocent Preacher's Son but soon proved that false, as he & April shattered the record for hamster sex that included doggie-style, spanks and visuals. Nearly all of it was on the feeds, and the word spread even beyond the BB world. He was usually pleasant enough but had a temper tantrum ranking up there with the champ hissy-fitters. Like many others, he learned to swim at summer camp.




       
    Almost brilliant but poor judgment kept her glued to devalued teamies and she let paranoia take over her game. She was almost good watching but poor people skills, repetitive & constant whispers, and annoying babytalk didn't help - Holly Poodle skits & medical help excepted. She's the third member of the elite Red Catsuit Club and her leaked Diary showed how much flirting really goes on in there.




       
    Won: Designer clothes, $5k
    We've had sex on the feeds before, but we never actually saw it until she came along. She one-upped often but to her credit, she impressively won the first endurance. She had delusions about her importance in & out of the habitat, and her Barbie Battles with Keesha plus her other fights were something. But we knew from the start she wouldn't be invisible, thanks to her most unusual introduction to the others.




       
    Won: Hawaii trip, $1k
    She ran the tie-dye room with an iron fist but only for a short time: her minions had turned on her long before Jessie & Michelle painted a bull's eye on her for being their leader. She took a lot of flak for leaving her babies and for choosing Hawaii, and her financial sob stories didn't always add up. But she told some fun stories, rebelled against giving comp recaps to Diary, and added great fireworks to fights.




       
    The first to get an empty wheel before their time, his comic relief wore off fast and he brought nothing but a major mirror obsession and raging insecurity. But it's not all bad: he laid around in pink pillows and talked himself gone with rampaging harangues, and he'll carry the fact that he lost to a girl while wearing spandex, then lost to three girls plus Renny. Rehabs will profit from the Jessie Drinking Game.




       
    The third fan fave to walk the plank, she was a great sidekick to the fun guys but she didn't bring much after they left, including any real attempt to save herself. Like many who have gone before, she seems like she'd be a cool person in reality, but this isn't. Her angry hat and illegal tribute bandana aside, she did a great Julie puppet and manscaping. Bikini fans will miss her, as will the Behind Pillows alliance.




       
    They all liked him and his shenanigans, but his comp potential and desperate pledges of multi allegiance got him booted anyway, plus he was Brian's pal. He entertained them and us like few have before, with skits, dances, nekkid romps, Ambien-induced bedtime stories and general looniness. Too bad he went before he made it upstairs: he'd probably have revived Bath Buddies® and done it right.




       
    He made more of an impact than most who get voted out first and he had the potential to be a fan fave but he over-allied and betrayed too early and had a very negative edit to boot. He was smart, funny, and a good ringleader for the guys - time will tell if they can be as fun without him. Sock Puppet Theater on only the second night of feeds, under his direction, could be the highlight of the season.
