I don't care who wins, I'm just here for the cheap entertainment.. the cheaper, the better
This site is about the Big Brother 12 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.

Visitors
Some members of Television Critics of America had a field trip to the habitat today, where they creeped around the hamsters' belongings and peeked at them during the veto comp, but they were not allowed to snack.. fridge sign courtesy Gail Pennington of the St Louis Post-DispatchBritney won the veto again playing Wizards of Pinball, so nominations will likely stay the same.. Kristen has to wear the catsuit for a week and Hayden has to spend 24 hours in solitary confinement in the Have-not room - he reported all the bugs & maggots are dead.. Rachel won $5,000, Enzo won a 42" tv, and Ragan won a veto ticket, enabling him to play in any upcoming veto comp
After the comp most of them returned to their horizontal positions, unaware the visitors had been there.. Kathy & Kristen talked about forming an alliance with Britney, as if the timing of that wouldn't be just a little bit suspect, let alone the fact that Kathy would be the replacement if the veto's used
If you missed it, Rachel & Brendon topped off last night with another sex event, Flashback to approximately 2:30am if you want to watch - I won't tell
Repercussions
Kristen finally got her catsuit, pastel tie-dye this time, and kooky wig, and Hayden moved into solitary.. he's got it a lot better than BB7 Danielle did, as he's allowed to talk to the others.. he & Kristen also touched fingertips under the door, awwwBrendon kept telling Rachel how much he tried to save her from the catsuit prize, but I suspect she would have enjoyed it and the attention it brings.. Kristen seems okay with it and is livelier than she was without it
Matt told them all it's his 30th birthday, but it isn't - he was 32 when he moved in.. I don't even think the date's right, but they got some cake mix and booze, and they toasted him a happy birthday and sang "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow" since they'd have to pay royalties to sing "Happy Birthday".. hey, any excuse for some action is fine by meAnd then there's this
Kathy was sleeping soundly this morning, then she sat up, and then this
before CBS gets hold of it and turns it into something else for the air show

Way too many bubbles today and tonight. Also, with all these rerun veto comp prizes, where was the grill?? |
|
  
He seriously thinks Rachel wouldn't like to be wearing the catsuit all week? Well, his sense of reality is a little distorted: he also thinks his folks will like Rachel, and that they have a future together. Considering they never talk about anything but the game, I figure their RELATIONSHIP will last right up until the finale.. although if it ended before that, on the feeds, we'd finally get the payoff we're waiting for. |
  
Won: $10HOLDS VETO Another veto win will only help her chances in finals, if she gets that far. I'm looking forward to her Diary about this comp as well as yesterday's and everything else.. they'd be smart to cut everyone else's and just make it the Britney Diary Show on CBS. Kathy & Kristen are ready to cozy up to her which could get humorous, especially when Britney talks about it in Diary. |
 
Won: 42" 3D TVLike Britney, he's the only bit of life and fun in there and I'm grateful for them both. From comp descriptions to his bathroom habits, he turns everything into a skit. He's also funny the way he cozies up with Brendon for 'strategy' talks but then trashes him and his idiocy afterwards, not to mention the faces he made during Kathy's stories tonight. If Enzo wasn't in there, we'd be doomed. |
 
Won: 24 hours solitaryNOMINATED So far he's handling his solitary confinement well but why wouldn't he? He's got non-stop company at the door from Kristen fingertip-touching to Kathy coddling, to his Brigadiers checking in, plus he's got tasty baguettes to eat and he doesn't mind using the porta-potty. It'd be nice to take a break from all the lunacy. |
 
The bleached blonde hair, heavy makeup and strapless leopard top don't match up to the personality for me, but that's how she rolls. She's urging Kristen to cozy up to Britney to get her to use the veto, but for some reason she doesn't seem to understand she'd be the replacement. I'm not sure we could take another half week of Kathy on the block so soon. Ups are for her phrase 'the bickerness' and for falling out of bed this morning - Flashback to 7:24am on F1. |
 
Won: $100, 1 week wig & catsuitNOMINATED I think she's the best catsuiter we've had yet: she didn't flip any tables over it nor did she flaunt it like a runway model as others have done. She rocked it well and she even seems to have found a personality in it, plus a sense of humor about the Mrs Roper hair. If anything, it's helped her.. maybe she won't be such a miseryguts this week - at least until she realizes she'll be wearing it to walk the plank. |
 
Won: $1,000I didn't see or hear enough of him today. |
 
Won: $1There's no reason at all for faking a birthday and that's what makes it such a great stunt. He's going to have trouble explaining all his little stories to them, especially Ragan, but for now it's all good and adds a little bit of flavor to this bland season. |
 
Won: $5,000HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD A minute ago she wanted a double date Final Four with Kristen & Hayden and she hated Britney, and now look at her: she nominated the other couple and she's lying in bed with Britney and promising her F3. But that's because she seems to believe she & Brendon will win every HOH through September, and that they have a right to. I want to see the two of them on the block so bad I can taste it, and since CBS can start using jury house footage after next week, they'll be able to cut one or both of their 'stars' loose so they'll stop polluting our feeds with their slurpydurp. |
 
Won: Veto ticketI didn't see him more than once or twice - he must have had another day off. |
    He promised chaos and delivered on that, leaving them and us wondering what he was up to most of the time. He was a good early guess for the staboteur but he WREAKED more HAVOC just by being himself. He was early-to-bed & early-to-rise so I missed a lot of what he did, but he brought some Orthodox education, travel companion/fingerbang stories, and he made lots of threats to make good tv that didn't pan out until his final moments. |
   Won: $10,000 She promised princessy but failed to deliver, opting instead for poor-me tears, complaints about being fat, and a lot of moping around. But she wasn't all doom & gloom: she rode the slip 'n slide and made fun of her keep-warm sleeping layers, and she was Britney's #1 mean girl cohort. She tried out for ANTM and might have fared better there, as they wouldn't have flashed her boobies. |
   13-DAY STABOTEUR She turned her nomination into the House of Annie and wheedled everyone for days, to no avail. She promised catfights with Britney and Rachel but nothing came of it, leaving her in the 'Who?' category for future BB trivia, even including her stabotage. She's lucky she went early: she might have cracked bad and the chops would get really brutal. |
 
Paolo Aviles30 - Unemployed real estate agent Somewhere Lucky #14 got away before the season began without any secrets exposed or embarrassing incidents to live forever on the web. Her dirty laundry will remain in the hamper, but boobies fans will be forever disappointed and wonder 'what if?' |
